Section (1)
Read the following passage, then answer the questions:

The honeybee is a very unusual kind of insect. Unlike other insects, which live alone, the honeybee
lives as a member of a community. These bees live together in what is known as a bee colony.
The head of the colony is called the queen bee. She is larger than the rest of the bees. Her main task in
the colony is to lay eggs. Most of the other bees are the worker bees. These bees collect nectar and pollen
from flowers. The nectar that is carried by the worker bees is deposited on the hive and then converted
into honey. The worker bees also help look after the young bees. As soon as the eggs are hatched, the
worker bees feed the young bees with pollen and nectar. The third type of bee found in the colony is the
drone or male bee. The main task of such a bee is to mate with a new queen.
The queen bee has a life span of about three years. During this period, she would have laid more
than half a million eggs. When the queen bee is dying, a new queen would be groomed. This new queen
would eventually take over the ‘duties’ of the old queen when the latter dies.
A) Choose the correct answer from a, b, c or d:
17 The thing that distinguishes the honeybee from other insects is that .................... .
a) its sting is stronger and deadly b) it can live alone
c) it can’t live apart from its community d) it can’t live among trees and flowers
18 The main mission of the queen bee in the colony is to .................... .
a) look after the young bees b) collect nectar and pollen
c) kill the worker bees d) lay eggs

The earliest lighthouses were simply bonfires built on hillsides to guide ships. The first lighthouse,
located on the ancient island of Pharos, served the old world city of Alexandria in 285 BC.
Of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Lighthouse of Alexandria was the only one that had
a practical function in addition to its architectural elegance. For sailors, it ensured a safe return to the
Great Harbor. For architects, it was the tallest building on earth at its time. And for scientists, it was the
6
mysterious mirror that fascinated them most. The reflection of the sun’s rays could be seen more than 50
kilometres offshore. Legend has it that the mirror was also used to detect and burn enemy ships before
they could reach the shore.
Shortly after the death of Alexander the Great, his commander Ptolemy Soter assumed power and
established his capital in Alexandria. Off the city’s coast lay the small island of Pharos. Due to the
dangerous sailing conditions, the construction of a lighthouse was seen as being necessary.
For centuries, the Lighthouse of Alexandria was used to mark the harbor, using fire at night and
reflecting the sun’s rays during the day. It was even shown on Roman coins, just as famous monuments
are depicted on currency today.
Although the Lighthouse of Alexandria did not survive to this present day, it left behind its influence.
From an architectural standpoint, the monument has been used as a model for many prototypes along
the Mediterranean.
17 The lighthouse has a great importance for .................... .
a) sailors, architects and scientists b) astronomers
c) psychologists d) Romans and ancient Egyptians
18 The (Antonym) of the word “construction” is .................... .
a) erection b) manufacture
c) structure d) destruction

Superstition is a belief, which is not based on reason or fact, but on associations of ideas, as in magic.
Some people believe in one or two superstitions. For instance, many people believe that misfortune will
happen if the water in which eggs have been boiled touches your hand. A potato carried in your pocket
will ward you off rheumatism. For the prevention of toothache, some people believe that the sufferer
should drive a nail into a big tree.

Section (1)
Others believe that putting on the left stocking before the right causes bad luck. Opening an umbrella
inside the house will make you miserable all day. Horror of number 13 is a popular superstition. Some
hotels, in fact, knowing the fear of this unlucky number, exclude this number from all rooms. Crossed
knives on a table mean a quarrel. Some people believe that a broken mirror foretells a death in the family.
In England, throughout the Middle Ages, horseshoes were nailed on the doors. This keeps away evil
spirits. The Japanese nail a piece of wood from a certain tree on their walls to keep off thieves.

Sleep is very important for our health and safety. We should get enough sleep in order to let our brains
work properly. Research has shown that sixty percent of adults suffer from sleep deprivation. If we
don’t sleep well for a long time, many negative things may happen. We may get sick because the body
loses its ability to fight infections. Also, a lot of accidents can be caused because drivers have difficulty
concentrating as a result of sleep deprivation. We need to ask a very important question. How much sleep
should an individual have?
12
An average of eight hours of sleep a night gives our bodies good preparation for the next day. However,
to get a good night’s sleep, we need to set a specific bedtime and wake-up time and make it a routine.
Also, we shouldn’t have many drinks which have caffeine such as cola, tea and coffee during the day in
order to get a good night’s rest. We should try to avoid eating, studying or even watching television in
bed because bed is meant for sleep. We must know that sleeping is essential for our health.
17 Itis recommended to have .................... hours of sleep.
a) eight b) four c) six d) ten
18 The main idea in the passage is .................... .
a) the dangers of sleep b) our life without sleep
c) the dangers of not having enough sleep d) how to get a good night’s sleep
19 The words “sleep deprivation” mean .................... .
a) the benefits of sleep b) the drawbacks of sleep
c) having enough sleep d) lack of sleep
20 Having drinks which contain caffeine during the day .................... .
a) makes your body strong to fight diseases
b) prevents you from getting a good night’s sleep
c) enables you to eat, study and watch TV in bed
d) enables you to have enough sleep at night

Hand-signs and gestures were used long before men learned to speak in words. In fact, words are not
man’s only means of communicating with each other. Red Indians, for example, once spoke different
languages but had a common sign language. The sight of smoke and the sound of drums are means of
sending different messages. These are common sign languages without words.
15
Section (1)
Today, people who are deaf or mute make even greater use of sign language. Though, they may never
be able to speak or hear, they can understand each other by gestures or hand signals. Signs are as good
as words. In African jungles, drum messages warn people against dangers. In Canary Islands a whistling
language passes messages among sailing boats. In cities, of course, traffic lights; red, yellow and green
control vehicles and people. They give them different instructions without words.
Shaking hands and bowing show that we are friendly to each other. Gestures which mean Yes or No
are most interesting. In some countries people show no by shaking their heads from side to side. This
happens in Egypt, but in Lebanon people lift their heads up and back, so that their chins move forward.
17 People in Canary Islands communicate by .................... .
a) whistling b) shouting
c) smoke d) drums
18 According to the passage, the oldest method of communication is .................... .
a) words b) pictures
c) traffic lights d) hand signs
19 Lifting the heads up and back in Lebanon is a sign of .................... .

It seems that the desire for money is part of human nature, though this desire varies from one person
to another, one social group to another. However, in every society, it is thought that the more money a
person has, the more prestige he is likely to acquire.
18
Money plays a different role in every stage of our life. To a child at school age, it is a means of buying
things he likes (sweets for example). His schoolmates who can’t do this, look upon him with admiration
and respect. To the teenager, it means independence and helps him gain a marked social status. He learns
that popularity and leadership can be obtained through money. A young man or woman also derive respect,
admiration and prestige from money. Should he/she have money, it will be easy to join a good university
and start a respectable career. An adult realizes the value of money as the breadwinner of the family.
Satisfaction of the family needs brings him happiness. On the other hand, it is also associated with
fear, worry and anxiety.
Finally, at the age of retirement, money is the main source of security to a person. Money certainly
affects many of our feelings and opinions.
17 For a retired person, money secures .................... .
a) worry b) poverty
c) fear d) protection from danger
18 The breadwinner of the family feels .................... when he satisfies the needs of his family.
a) shy b) ashamed
c) happy d) uneasy
19 The antonym of the word “admiration” is .................... .
a) anger b) ugliness
c) approval d) disapproval

The television, the computer and the internet are responsible for the declining interest in reading among
the young. They do nothing to build up reading skills as few people find it interesting to read on the computer
or the internet. If the children’s time is devoted to reading, the population would be better educated.
21
Section (1)
Reading a story is an active partnership between writer and reader. Ideas are sketched and the mind
of the reader creates the rest, but watching something is totally passive.
The problem is that many children read very slowly. It is hardly surprising that such children declare
that they find reading boring and prefer to watch television. Their difficulty is not reading the words – it
is interpreting them. They need to be able to read fast enough to feed the mind’s hunger for a story. Only
by reading daily a child will become a strong and independent reader.
Parents need to be convinced of the importance of preventing their children from wasting their time.
Without the television, the computer and the internet, the child is likely to turn to books for entertainment.

17 The people who read on the computer and the internet are .................... .
a) many b) several c) a lot d) few
18 The underlined pronoun “They” refers to .................... .
a) the young b) the television, the computer and the internet
c) children d) reading skills
19 According to the writer’s view, TV is .................... means of entertainment.
a) not an effective b) an encouraging c) an effective d) not a cheap

All social animals need some method of exchanging information. Human beings do that in many ways.
One of these ways is bodily movements. They express approval by nodding, by clapping the hands, by
whistling, by smiling, or by laughing. They express disapproval by shaking the head. They show direction
by pointing, and they show size by holding their hands at a certain distance from one another.
24
Even lower creatures such as insects use methods of exchanging information. Bees, like human beings
live in organised groups. They tell each other that there is food by carrying samples back to the hive.
They show the distance and direction of the food by dancing. These dances are important to the bees as
they help them to know the sources of food.
Of course, the main difference between man’s method of exchanging information and that of other
creatures is the spoken language. Only man can speak. Thus, man alone can express ideas and share
knowledge with other human beings.
Social groups of human beings and other lower creatures depend upon methods of exchanging
information. However, only the human society which has a spoken language can make great social and
technical progress.

Football or soccer, which is considered to be the most popular sport in the world, is a team sport
played between two teams of eleven players using a spherical ball.
The object of the game, which is played on a wide rectangular field with a goal on each end of the
field, is to score by putting the ball into the adversary goal. A goalkeeper who is allowed, at the exception

of other players, to use his / her hands in the game, keeps the goal. The winners are those who score the
most goals. If the football match ends in a draw the two teams may be redirected to play extra time and/
or penalty shootouts (each team taking turns to have a set number of kicks at the goal.)
The way football is played now was first codified in England. Nowadays, it is governed by the FIFA,
“Fédération Internationale de Football Association”. The game is played now all over the world and
competitions are organised nationally, continentally and internationally. The most prestigious of football

Statistics show that the rapid growth in population creates problems for developing countries. So, why
don’t people have fewer children? It has also been found that only when people’s education and living
standards begin to rise do birth rates begin to fall. Now poor countries can’t afford social services and
old age pensions, and people’s incomes are so low that they have nothing to spare for savings. So people
need their children to provide them with security in their old age. Having a large family can be a form of
insurance. Even when they are still young, children can help on a small farm.
Improvements in public health services and medical care have assured that many more babies survive
infancy and grow up. It has also helped the parents to live longer. No wonder populations are being added
to both ends. These people have to be convinced that with smaller families, there will be more food,
better schools, more employment and thus a better standard of living. This means changes in attitudes.

This year the 50th Cairo Book Fair has turned out to be a real cultural festival in its new place. The
Fair has won an excellent reputation not only in Egypt or the Arab world, but internationally as well.
International publishers were competing to participate in our Fair this year. It is a sign of awareness
34
Final Tests (Units 1 - 8) Section (2)
that we start regarding culture as essential for our civilisation rather than considering it a means of
entertainment, because the culture of any country speaks on its behalf and represents it abroad. If you
can imagine how culture can affect the economy of any nation, it will be easy for you to think of it as a
commodity that could be sold abroad.
The Fair has hosted famous thinkers, poets, writers and critics from more than 35 countries to participate
in the debate held every evening at the fairground. It was visited by more than 3 million people. More
than 750 Publishing Houses have come to participate in the Fair.
Unlike fairs of previous years where the selling of books was the main aim, it was decided in this
year’s Fair to take advantage of all the space and time available to turn the Fair into a festival combining
the various activities of culture and art.
It was a duty as well as an honour that the Book Fair paid a special tribute to Tharwat Okasha and
Sohir AlKalamawy by assigning a whole main division to their achievements.

Glass is a pure compound of sand melted at a very high temperature with the help of catalysts. Silicate,
the main component of sand, is heated till it is red-hot. When it has been sufficiently heated, it is wound
around a blowing pipe. Specially trained men, who have learnt to control their intake and output of air,
will then blow cups, bowls, vases and bottles from the heated silicate. These men never make a mistake
while blowing glass, for any deviation from their methods could burst their lungs or seriously harm their
37
Section (2)
internal organs. Glass makers work for years before achieving the status of master craftsmen. They join
the glass works from a young age, working for a minimal pay as apprentices. They soon learn the trade
and become ordinary craftsmen. With the benefit of practice and experience, they will one day become
master craftsmen. If a particular cup or vase requires a special rim or design, the master craftsman will
handle it himself. Otherwise, mass-produced glasses may be moulded in die casts.
Great patience is needed to make a glass, for after it is shaped and left aside to cool, it has to be given
a long interval to ‘contract’. If it is not ‘aged’ sufficiently, it will crack and disjoint.
17 The main component of sand is .................... .
a) glass b) bottles c) silicate d) cups
18 Glass makers become craftsmen .................... .
a) at a very early age b) after a three-year experience
c) when they join glass works d) after a lot of practice and experience
19 Someone who works for an employer for a fixed period of time in order to learn a particular skill or job

One of the results of technology and population growth is the increase of pollution throughout the
world. According to a United Nations report, the future of all life on earth will be endangered if man
does not control contamination of the environment. It is time we realise the full extent of the dangers
that face mankind.
40
For instance, here in Egypt, look at our River Nile. It is strange to see how everything is thrown into
it as if it were our litter basket, instead of keeping it clean and pure we pollute it. We ourselves, not our
“enemies”, dirty it with our own hands. Some farmers wash themselves, their clothes, their animals
and their pots and pans in its waters. They even throw their dead animals and birds into it. Some people
living in cities and towns throw their old tyres and cars, and their old broken bottles, and rusty tins
into it. Factories throw their waste chemicals and garbage into it. In this way, the waters of the Nile are
poisoned, killing our fish, poisoning our lands, weakening our crops and destroying our health.
So, it would be foolish to shut our eyes to the dangers of the pollution that man causes to the very
thing on which his life depends. Please, keep our Nile clean.
17 The writer describes the people who pollute the Nile as .................... .
a) Egyptians b) enemies c) ignorant d) country people
18 We should keep our environment .................... .
a) tidy b) pure c) fresh d) clean

What does it mean to be lucky? It commonly means someone who gets something valuable without
really trying, someone who is in the right place at the right time. The person who buys a winning lottery
ticket or who discovers a lost painting by a famous painter – these are lucky people. Yet, luck does
43
Section (2)
not guarantee happiness. Accepting ourselves exactly as we are at this present moment provides the
courage to move forward. Believing that all our choices in the past were the best we could have made
frees us from regret. It also reinforces our belief that we are as good as we can be now.
The best preparation for the future is self-acceptance in the present. Self-acceptance and trust in
people are the foundations of confidence and courage. Added to action, they lead to more opportunities
for unexpected events - which people call luck - that can enrich our lives.

The basic function of education is to teach children knowledge, values and pattern of behaviour that
they will need in the adult world and will move from one generation to another. Education is largely
informal that occurs within the family. Family members teach children the values of their society as
well as certain basic skills. Parents may teach their children the skills of cooking, food gathering,
hunting and fishing. By this way, children learn the way of society by participating in adult activities.
46
Formal education, which involves instruction by specially trained teachers who follow officially
recognized policies, is called schooling. Schools fulfill this function through a set of courses that
include such subjects as languages and literature, history, geography, mathematics, science and foreign
languages. Also schools develop the critical thinking skills of students that are necessary to meet their
needs in the future.

Have you ever wondered how you would grasp the information taught in class? Our minds and
bodies gather information in various ways. Then our minds process that information, organising it and
making connection to things we already know. This process can also work differently: do we think
49
Section (2)
in pictures or words? Do we remember details or the big picture? To sum up, people have different
learning styles. Psychologists have identified some basic learning styles: the linguistic type learns by
using language skills: listening, reading, speaking and writing.
The logical type refers to people who learn by applying scientific principles. The visual type learns
by seeing while musical people learn well when information is presented through music. The next
type learns best by movement and physical activities. Finally, the intrapersonal learners associate new
information directly with their own experiences while the interpersonal type learns well by working
with others.

Brain drain, the action of having highly skilled and educated people leaving their countries to work
abroad, has become one of the developing countries’ concerns. Many of them are heading for more
developed countries, searching for higher wages and better working conditions. What makes those
educated people leave their countries should be seriously considered and a distinction between push and
52
pull factors must be made. The push factors include low wages and lack of satisfactory lifestyle. Social
and economic unrest may also be determining causes. The pull factors, however, include intellectual
freedom and enough money for attaining a better life in the host countries.
Brain drain has undesirable effects on the sending countries. It reduces the number of creative
people in developing countries. Similarly, with more investments abroad, these countries are missing
an opportunity of wealth creation. This also has negative results on employment.
17 According to the passage, brain drain .................... in the sending countries.
a) increases the number of skilled people
b) complicates the unemployment problem
c) adds to the chances of wealth creation
d) develops working conditions

form in clouds. These contain drops of water and fragments of ice which rub and hit to form electricity
which travels through the air causing lightning. The temperature of lightning can be hotter than that of
the sun. Lightning is very dangerous. It may strike mountains, people and buildings. It also causes trees
to fall or catch fire.

Are you a litterbug? Do you chew gum in the streets? Do you eat on the metro? Have you ever
painted graffiti on walls? Are you a jaywalker? If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, then

skyscrapers, shopping malls, top fashion houses, colourful local markets, discount shops for bargain-
hunters, even air-conditioned walkways are all part of the magic of Singapore.
The majority of Singaporeans are of Chinese origin, but there are ethnic groups from India, Malaysia,
Indonesia and Thailand living there. It is not surprising that the island has many interesting districts
and calligraphers and fortunetellers can be found in Chinatown. Little India has spices, silverware,

What is an ideal holiday for one person may be a very unpleasant one for another. The sportsman
likes a kind of holiday which his lazy friend would find worse than his daily work; while the lazy man’s
ideal holiday would leave the sportsman quite unsatisfied.
61
Section (2)
If I were allowed to choose my own holiday, I would go on a voyage in a modern passenger ship
with a swimming pool.
Even if the sportsman and his lazy friend came with me, they would both be happy; one would have
plenty of games and swimming; the other could sit in a comfortable chair all day, looking at the sea and
drinking lemonade. On a ship, one can do as one likes, when one likes. If one day I find an interesting
book in the ship’s library, I can spend the whole day reading it, and nobody will stop me. Perhaps the
next day I shall want some exercise. Well, then I can play games with passengers until I am hot and
sweating and ready for a bath. I can go and sleep in my cabin at any time of the day or night, I can get
cheap drinks during most of the day, and I can eat as I like, choosing among a variety of foods.
But perhaps the greatest pleasure of a sea holiday is coming to new ports in strange lands, and going
ashore for a few hours to see strange places, eat strange foods and hear a strange language talked around us.
Whenever I think of my ideal holiday, it is the picture of a mysterious foreign city that comes to my mind.
17 A sportsman is fond of .................... .
a) playing games b) reading books c) eating much food d) sleeping early
18 The utmost pleasure of a sea holiday is ....................

Dreams have interested, puzzled, and even frightened people. They thought that dreams always
came true, and that they came from something outside the person dreaming.
Since the end of the 19th century, physicians, psychologists and other scientists have been studying
dreams. Although they still have much to learn, they think that dreams are created by the dreamer granted, or
in which they become somebody they would like to be. These are wish-fulfilling dreams; they occasionally
64
dream that they are being chased by robbers, or are in danger from fire or flood. These frightening dreams
are called nightmares. People usually have nightmares when they are upset about something.
Studies about the causes of dreams show many reasons. For example, changes in the brain occur
during sleep, and these are probably related to dreaming. But no one knows enough yet about the brain
changes in dreaming to say exactly what they are. A dreamer’s health affects his dreams. A person who
is ill will have different kinds of dreams from those of one who is well. If a person is hungry, or cold,
or tired, his dreams may include these feelings. In addition, a large part of any dream comes from the
events of the day before. Often the person or situations in a night dream are those the dreamer met
during the day. The feelings of happiness or disappointment which came out in dreams were probably
in the dreamer before. All the dream does is to give them an outlet.
17 Changes in the brain take place .................... .
a) by day b) at night c) during sleep d) during meals
18 .................... is a terrible dream.
a) A day-dream b) A nightmare c) A dreamer d) Dreamland
a) dreams b) dreamers c) nightmares d) feelings
20 We have been studying dreams for .................... .
a) 50 years b) 300 years
c) centuries d) more than a century

The human race is only one small species of beings in the living world; many other groups exist
among the creatures on this planet. However, human beings have a great influence on the rest of the
world. People change the environment by building cities where forests once stood. People affect the
water supply by using water for industry and agriculture. People affect weather conditions by increasing
67
Section (2)
the amount of water in the air; when open land is changed into farms, the humidity of the atmosphere
in that area increases because of the increased vegetation. Human beings change the air by adding
pollutants like smoke from factories and fumes from automobile motors.
Thus, it can be said that the human species changes the world through its actions, by its habits.
People, in other words, are interfering with nature.
One negative result of people’s interference with the environment is that many kinds of animals are
becoming rare. In fact, their numbers are decreasing so rapidly that they are in danger of becoming
extinct. Because worried and concerned experts want to make sure that these animals do not disappear,
an “endangered species” list has been made, and ways to save them have been started. Some types of
birds, like eagles, are in danger of extinction. This is the reason why many concerned citizens have
organised groups to save the birds.
17 The main idea of the passage is that human beings .................... .
a) need to demolish forests b) are the worst thing on earth
c) affect the whole creatures d) should stop living in cities
18 People demolish forests in order to ....................
a) build cities. b) raise more animals.
c) grow useful crops. d) save the amount of water.
19 The underlined word “their” refers to ....................

Advertising has become a very specialised activity in modern times. In the business world of today,
supply is usually greater than demand. There is great competition between the different manufacturers
of the same kind of product to persuade customers to buy their own particular make. They always have
to remind the customer of the name and the quality of their product. They do this by advertising. The
manufacturer advertises in newspapers and on posters. He sometimes pays for songs to be sung about
his product on commercial radio programmes. He employs attractive salesgirls to distribute samples
of it. He organises competitions with prizes for the winners. He often advertises on the screens of
local cinemas. Most important of all is on television. He has advertisements put into the programmes
whenever this is possible. Manufacturers often spend large sums of money on advertisements.
We buy a particular product because we think that it is the best. We usually think so because the
advertisements say so. Some people never pause to ask themselves if the advertisements are telling the truth.
17 Advertisements persuade us to buy things even if .................... .
a) the product is good b) we don’t need them

Scientists believe that in twenty years from now we will be seeing driverless buses on the streets of
major cities. This might seem unbelievable, but bus design experts are working in laboratories trying
to design driverless buses. An automated means of transport would not only be really reliable but also
cheaper and environmentally friendly because the buses would run on electricity or biofuel.
73

Research has shown that nearly 60% of the running cost of a bus is spent on the driver. Therefore,
the use of a driverless bus would inevitably reduce operating costs. The vehicle is able to navigate by
combining satellite technology with a special system. This system uses magnets which are positioned
in the road. Driverless buses will probably make our everyday lives easier. However, we must consider
what will happen to the bus drivers who will eventually find themselves unemployed if this project
becomes a reality.

Sometimes students ask to be given a list of topics which might come up in the English exam, so that
they can prepare for them. As this is an English language exam, there’s no strictly prescribed topical
content. The best advice is to take a wide interest in topics of all kinds. However, environmental topics
76
like global warming, pollution and world problems appear in the exam. The reason for using them is
that they are of general interest, international in perspective and they affect everyone.
To help yourself feel more confident and comfortable with the topics, you can watch documentaries
or current affairs programmes in English. You can also read newspapers. You might find that you not
only feel more at ease with exam topics, more fluent at using the language, but you can also have
fascinating things to share with your friends after school.

All spiders spin webs. That’s because webs help spiders do three things. Webs help spiders hold
eggs. Webs help spiders hide. And webs help spiders catch food. Webs help spiders hold eggs. Many
spiders like to lay their eggs in their webs. The webs help keep the eggs together. Webs help spiders
keep their eggs safe.
79
Section (2)
Webs help spiders hide. Most spiders are dark. They are brown, grey, or black. But spider webs are
light. They are white and cloudy. When spiders hide in their webs, they are harder to see.
Webs help spiders catch food. Spider webs are sticky. When a bug flies into the web, it gets stuck. It
moves around. It tries to get out. But it can’t. It is trapped! Spiders can tell that the bug is trapped. That’s
because spiders feel the web move. And the spider is hungry. The spider goes to get the bug.
Without webs, spiders would not be able to live like they do. Spiders need their webs to survive!
Some spiders are poisonous like the one called the black widow whose poison can kill any creature
it bites. Some people have phobia of spiders, they feel nervous or worried when they see a spider so to
get rid of this phobia they have to visit a therapist who may help them.

a) spider colors. b) spider webs c) spider eggs d) spider prey

from using the Internet, as this would put her at a disadvantage. What is more, I like video games. I

Helicopters are very different from airplanes. They can do three things that airplanes cannot do.
First, when airplanes move upward, they must also move forward, but helicopters can move straight
up without moving ahead. Second, helicopters can fly backward, which airplanes cannot do. Third,
helicopters can use their rotors to hover in the air (stay in one place) which is impossible for planes.
88
Because helicopters can perform actions that airplanes cannot, they are used for different tasks.
Since helicopters can take off without moving forward, they do not need a runway for takeoff. They
are used in congested areas where there is no room for airplanes or in isolated areas which do not have
airports. Because they can hover, they are used on firefighting missions to drop water on fires. They
are used in logging operations to lift trees out of forests. Helicopters are used as air ambulances to
airlift patients out of situations which are difficult to reach by conventional ambulances. The police use
helicopters to follow suspects on the ground or to search for cars on the ground. Of course, helicopters
have military uses because of their design and capabilities. In recent times, many countries have used
helicopters in wars which was an effective factor. But the most enjoyable thing is that if you are flying
in a helicopter you will feel that you are a bird soaring in the sky.
17 Helicopters are able to .................... .
a) move straight up. b) fly backward. c) hover. d) All of the above
18 The best synonym for perform is .................... .
a) fly. b) do. c) lift. d) can.
19 If an area is isolated it is .................... .
a) crowded. b) popular. c) cut off. d) in the city.
20 How are helicopters used as ambulances?
a) They chase suspects on the ground. b) They airlift people out of accidents.
c) They can drop water on fires. d) They lift trees out of forests.

Nine thousand years ago, people did not have money. They traded animals for things they wanted.
They traded crops for what they wanted.
In China, in about 1200 B.C., people traded shells for the things they wanted. Chinese people also
traded metal tools for the things they wanted. For example, they traded metal knives and shovels for
the things they wanted. Later in China, people made metal money. In about 100 B.C., the Chinese made
money of animal skin. The first paper money was made from white coloured deer skin. It came from
China about 900 years later.
91
Section (2)
In about 700 B.C., people made the first round metal coins. The coins were made of gold and silver.
They looked very similar to the coins we use today. These coins came from Lydia. Lydia was located
where the country called Turkey is located today. After people made coins in Lydia, people in Rome,
Iran, and Greece also began making coins. Coins were very durable – they were strong and could last a
long time without becoming damaged.
Wampum are necklaces made from beads and seashells. The beads had holes in them. People put
beads on strings. American Indians used wampum for money in the 1500’s. Money changes with time.
No matter what it looks like, money is an idea. It is the thought that people can trade something they
have for something they want. Money makes trading easier.
