Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up. Actually, the
world’s energy resources are limited. Nobody knows exactly how much fuel is left.
However, we also should use them economically and try to find out alternative sources
of power. According to Professor Marvin Burnham of the New England Institute of
Technology, we have to start saving coal, oil and gas before it is too late; and solar
power is the only alternative.
However, many people do not approve of using nuclear power because it’s very
dangerous. What would happen if there was a serious nuclear accident? Radioactivity
causes cancer and may badly affect the future generations. The most effective thing is
that we should use natural resources as economical as possible.

Almost all our energy comes from oil, coal, and natural gas. We call them fossil
fuels. The earth’s fossil fuels are running out. What will happen when there is no oil,
coal and gas on the earth?
Scientists are trying to find and use other alternative sources of energy. We can use
energy from the sun, the wind, and the water.
Solar energy is unlimited. The sun supplies all the energy used to grow plants, to
evaporate water for rain, and to maintain the temperate of the planet. All are necessary
for human life. If we are able to collect solar energy, we will be sure to have this
abundant source of power.

C. we are looking forward to seeing great changes
D. we are looking for other alternative sources of energy
IV. Read and write T (true)/ F (false) for each statement.
The sun is our nearest star, and all of our energy comes from it. The sun sends out
very large amounts of energy every day. We call this energy solar energy or radiant
energy. Without the sun, life on earth would not exist because our planet would be
totally frozen. We use this solar energy in many different ways. The sunlight lets us see
and warms us.
Plants use the light from the sun to grow. They store it as chemical energy. The
energy is stored in their roots, fruits, and leaves. This energy feeds every living thing on
the earth. When humans and animals eat plants, and the food made from plants, we
store the energy in our bodies, in our muscles and in our brain cells.
We use this energy for everything we do. We use energy when we sing a song,
think a thought, tell a joke, climb a ladder, make a pizza, or run a race. Everything
needs energy!

IV. Read the passage.


A rocket uses fuel to make power for the engine. The fuel is set on fire inside the
rocket. As the fuel burns, it creates gases that have great pressure. These gases are
blasted out of the rocket engines.
These gases all go out the bottom of the rocket engine where it is open. They
come out so fast and with so much power that the rocket is pushed up. It is pushed up so
hard that the rocket overcomes the force of gravity, which tries to keep everything on
the ground. The force that pushes up against the front of the rocket is called thrust.
Unlike an airplane, a rocket does not use wings to help it fly. It just uses the
power and force created by the burning fuel to make enough thrust.
Decide whether the statements are True (T) or False (F).
1. A rocket uses the energy from wind to make power for the engine. ...............
2. When the fuel burns, it creates gases that have great pressure. ...............
3. These gases come so fast but they have little power. ...............
4. The rocket is pushed up because it overcomes the force of gravity. ...............
5. The rocket has two wings which help it fly. ...............
V. Read the passage and answer the questions given.
It takes you about 16 hours to travel from New York to Beijing. Beside, you also
have to wait at the airport, and sometimes you have to transfer onto a different airplane.
If you add all of that extra time, the trip will take at least 20 hours. But in the future, this
trip might only take 2 hours.
Nowadays, a private company is developing something called ET3 which stands
for “evacuated tube transport technology”. Here is how it works. A tube goes all way
from New York to Beijing. The tube is only a few meters wide. Capsules use move
through the tube. Six people can sit in one capsule. The capsules use electricity instead
of gasoline. The capsules can travel about 6.500 kilometers per hour. That is much
faster than airplane – most modern airplanes usually only fly at about 800 kilometers
per hour.
So how is this possible? How can these capsules travel so fast? The answer is that
there is no air inside the tube. When airplanes fly, they have to move through the air.
The air slows the airplanes down. Because there is no air in the ET3 tubes, the capsules
are able to move at a very high speed. Besides, the capsules are quite light. They only
weigh 183 kilograms.
It is exciting to think of how ET3 will change in the future. Maybe someday, you
will be able to have lunch in New York and dinner in Beijing.
Answer the questions:
1. How long will it take to travel from New York to Beijing if you travel by ET3?
.........................................................................................................

2. What does ET3 stand for?


.........................................................................................................
3. What does ET3 use to make engine?
.........................................................................................................
4. How far does the most modern airplane usually fly in one hour?
.........................................................................................................
5. Why does ET3 can travel that fast?
.........................................................................................................

nobody…” câu hỏi đuôi là “they”
Ví dụ:

III. Read the text carefully, and then answer the question below.
Mumbai, which is located in the western coast of India, is the capital of Maharashtra
state. It is home to Bollywood, the centre of Hindu movie industry, and the film
“Slumdog Millionaire” was based there. Poor people have to live in slums. In the slum,
people have to live with many problems. People have to go to the toilets in the streets
and there are open sewers. Children play among sewage wastes and doctors deal with
4,000 cases of death a day because of lack of hygiene.
Next to the open sewers are water pipes which can crack and take in sewage.
Dharavi slum is based around this area. There are toxic wastes in the slum including
hugely dangerous heavy metals. Dharavi is made of 12 different neighbourhoods and
there are no maps or road signs. The further you walk into Dharavi from the edge, the
more crowded area becomes. People live in very small slums, often with many members
of their extended families.

IV. Read and decide if each statement is true or false or not given.
OVERPOPULATION (CONT)
These two problems are related, but they happen in different parts of the world.
Overpopulation tends to be a worse problem in poorer countries where people rely more
on farming and often have larger families to help with the workload. Overconsumption
is a much worse problem in the richest countries in the world. The reason for this is
simple. When people have more money, they use more resources. For example, look at
carbon Missions. This is the amount of carbon released into the atmosphere based on
the energy people use by doing things like driving a car, riding in an airplane, or heating
a house. The carbon emissions of one American today are roughly equal to those of four
Chinese, 20 Indians, or 250 Ethiopians. It is basic math that if the rich continue to use
the earth’s resources at this pace, one day those resources will run out.
No. Statements T F NG
1. Overpopulation and overconsumption are not related to each ¨ ¨ ¨
other.
2. Overpopulation is the problem of rich country. ¨ ¨ ¨
3. The developed countries are worried about overconsumption. ¨ ¨ ¨
