Read the following passage, then answer the questions below:
Should we work all the time without having rest or entertainment ? The
answer is that we can not go on working without stopping. From time to time, we
should stop to have some rest and some recreation to have fun. If we did not, we
could make mistakes and our work might get worse.
An overworked person may end up by losing his ability to think clearly and
by having no energy to go on working. Sleep is one way by which we can renew our
energy. Sports and games are also important for brainworkers, who stay in closed
offices and don’t have a good chance to exercise their muscles. Swimming, walking
and other outdoor activities are excellent and may be very good for all people, so
we should not waste our weekends. People should make full use of them by being
in the open-air places. Having forgotten all about our work and the worries of
life, we can then enjoy ourselves to the full and return the next day to work with
our energy fully renewed. Change has a magic effect on man’s health and his work.
Only clever people are those who can make a balance between their work
and their personal lives. They are hardworking when they do their jobs and they
live the happiest moments when they are not working.

It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy that makes happiness.

Festivals

Some people prefer family gatherings and feasts.
Everyone finds in festivals something they enjoy most. I enjoy family gatherings
which help to strengthen the bonds between family members. Families usually
have meals together. Children usually wear beautiful coloured clothes. They enjoy
playing their own games. Family gathering is one of the most interesting
celebrations that Kuwaiti families enjoy from time to time. “ When you look at
your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses “ Joyce Brothers.

The Koala bear is one of the cutest animals in the world. It has a small
body, grey coloured fur and a white belly and it doesn’t have a tail. What is
funny about the Koala bear is that it isn’t a bear at all!
The Koala is actually a marsupial. Marsupial like kangaroos are animals that
have pockets where they keep their young in. A new born Koala is called a joey
and when it is born, it doesn’t look like the grown-up Koala we know.it is born
blind and without ears or fur.
Soon after its birth, the joey goes to the mother’s pocket, and continues
to grow its eyes, legs and fur for six months. The young Koala then leaves the
pocket and mostly stay on the mother back to grow for six more months. It
stays here until it’s ready to climb up the trees, sleep on the branches, and eat
on its own.
Koalas spend most of their lives called “gum trees “and only go to the ground
if necessary. Living in these trees helps them to easily reach their food and stay
away from wild animals that might attack. Although gum leaves are poisonous to
other animals, they are the only food koalas eat. The Koala’s stomach has special
bacteria that can take energy and water from the leaves. When they are not
climbing trees, Koalas sleep up to 20 hours a day. A grown-up Koala can grow to
be around 15 to 20 years old.

Medical discoveries
It is easy to see how advances in health and medicine have saved the
lives of every person in the world. There are many important medical
discoveries that have already changed the world. One of them was the
discovery of blood groups, which were identified by an Australian
doctor in 1900. The first blood transfusion was very dangerous and
people often died. The antiseptic which is used every day is a very
powerful invention too. Vaccination was developed by an English doctor
and it is recommended nowadays for children, teenagers and adults.
There are also various inventions, for example x-rays, anaesthetic and
antibiotics.
All these inventions and discoveries help all human beings to have
a good health. Vaccines prevent the spread of contagious diseases.
Millions of people would die without vaccination. Antiseptic kills
bacteria and without it, simple operations can cause death to people. In
the past, people had to be awake during surgery but nowadays
anaesthetic prevents patients from feeling pain during surgery.
Antibiotics fight infections and can save lives when used properly. They
either kill or prevent the growth of bacteria. In my opinion, countries
should support scientists to work hard for more achievements in the
medical field.

Read the following passage, then answer the questions that follow:
We know that editors have organized newspapers well for readers with the
most important stories on page one with big headlines and stories of lesser
importance somewhere in the back of the newspapers. That isn't the way that we
read them though.
I come to work on a train most mornings, with a lot of other people, all of whom
are reading newspapers. We have about an hour, but an editor would be
discouraged to see how we go about reading the paper. We don't follow his
directions at all. We all look at the headlines quickly- we don't read the front-
page stories unless we have time to come back to them later. We go directly to
the articles that interest us most. Of course, there are a few people who do it
right. They are often the most successful-looking people on the train. They read
the important stories first and then go on to the other one.
Other newspaper readers on the train buy a good newspaper, take out their
glasses and pencils, and turn immediately to the crossword puzzle. It takes them
an hour to finish the puzzle, and I don't think that many of them ever look at
anything else in the paper.
The way we read newspapers is what gives papers their edge over TV. Unlike TV,
with newspapers, the reader is in charge. We can read our newspaper frontward
or backward. We can skip what bores us and read the parts that we like. We can
study the advertisement that interests us and ignore what doesn't.
52
4. According to the 3rd paragraph, the writer thinks that many of those who
do crossword puzzles:
a. always read everything else that there in a newspaper.
b. rarely read anything else that there in a newspaper.
c. are not that smart because they take too long doing puzzles.
d. should read a newspaper backward, not frontward.
5. According to the last paragraph, all the following statements are TRUE
EXCEPT:
a. Readers can read the parts they like in newspapers.
b. Readers can skip advertisements that interest them.
c. Readers can skip the parts that bore them in newspapers.
d. Readers can read newspapers either frontward or backward.
6. The purpose of the writer is to:
a. persuade us to read newspapers.
b. entertain us with a story about newspapers.
c. inform us of the different ways people read newspapers.
d. explain to us how editors organise newspapers.

Read the following passage, then answer the questions below:
Can you imagine what it would be like not to be able to speak or hear? When
Helen Keller was 19 months old, she became very ill. Doctors expected her to die,
but she survived. Helen’s mother soon noticed that Helen was not responding
when the dinner bell rang or when she waved her hand in front of Helen’s face.
It then became apparent that Helen’s illness had left her blind and deaf. She was
born on June 27, 1880 in Alabama, where she lived with her family. She was
frustrated and confused. She didn’t know what was going on in her world. Her
parents knew that they needed help. They hired a tutor for Helen. Her name was
Anne Sullivan.
Success didn’t happen right away. But one day at the water pump, a
breakthrough happened. Anne spelled the word water in Helen’s hand. Helen
began to catch on. Suddenly, her brain was on fire. She reached down to touch
the ground, and Anne spelled the word earth in her hand. She continued pointing
and learning. She learned to spell 30 words on that day.
By the age of 10, Helen had learned to speak by feeling her teacher’s mouth
when she talked. Some people couldn’t understand Helen, but she kept trying. She
learned to read French, German, Greek, and Latin in Braille. Braille is a way for
people who can’t see to read. Raised dots are used to represent letters and words.
Soon Helen could read, write, and speak.
Helen Keller went on to give speeches all over the world. Most of the money
she earned was given to the American Foundation for the Blind. She met U.S.
presidents, wrote a dozen books, and went to college. Helen Keller lived to be 87.
She continues to inspire many people worldwide.

Have you ever wondered what keeps a hot air balloon flying? It is when hot
air rises and cold air falls. In order to understand more about how this works in
hot air balloons, it helps to know more about hot air balloons themselves.
A hot air balloon has three major parts: the basket, the burner, and the
envelope. The basket is where passengers ride. The burner is positioned above
the passengers’ heads and produces a huge flame to heat the air inside the
envelope. The envelope is the colourful fabric balloon that holds the hot air. When
the air inside the envelope is heated, the balloon rises. The pilot can control the
up-and-down movements of the hot air balloon by regulating the heat in the
envelope. When the pilot is ready to land, the air in the balloon is allowed to cool
and the balloon becomes heavier than air. This makes the balloon descend.
Before the balloon is launched, the pilot knows which way the wind is
blowing. But sometimes the pilot can actually control the direction that the
balloon flies while in flight. This is because the air above the ground is sectioned
into layers in which the direction of the wind may be different. A hot air balloon
can’t be fully controlled, but the pilot can fly higher or lower into a different
layer of air .Some days the difference between the direction of the wind is so
strong that it can actually push the balloon in a completely different direction!
2. What does the underlined word " descend " in the 2nd paragraph mean ?
a) find out b) look over
c) turn down d) move down
3. The underlined word " it " in the 3rd paragraph refers to:
a) air b) layer c) wind d) balloon
69
4. According to the passage, balloon pilots control the balloon by:
a) Adjusting the amount of air.
b) Moving into a different layer of air.
c) Regulating the air temperature inside the balloon.
d) Changing the amount of weight contained in the basket.
7. How does the pilot change the direction of the balloon during the flight ?
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
8. What might the strong difference between the wind direction cause?

unit 12: Artificial Intelligence VS Human Intelligence
Artificial intelligence is a part of our world that no one can ignore. However, any AI
application or machine is designed to do certain tasks. This consumes a lot of energy. Moreover it
needs a lot of time and effort to teach a system its responsibilities. AI applications and machines
need regular maintenance. After years of research, the results say that even the most advanced
robots can hardly compete with a 6 year old child.
While super computers weigh tons and consume huge amounts of energy, a humanbrain
weighs 1.4 kg and needs 20 watts only. Humans learn how to manage hundreds of different skills
during life. A human worker can work on multiple responsibilities. Human intelligence is bigger
because it’s the creation of Allah. On the other side Artificial intelligence, as the name suggests, is
artificial, little and temporary. AI is the creation of human intelligence.
unit 12: Are robots friends or foes?
friends foes
Many years ago, we all heard that the time will come where we see robots everywhere
replacing humans in all fields. So this turned into fear of these robots in the future especially with
watching some movies that reflect that idea. Robots are designed to do certain tasks. They can be
helpful in many things like housework, factories, medicine andmany other. There are self-driving
cars too. Of course it’s not easy to have this because it’s expensive and needs maintenance. We
hope one day it will be available for more people.
On the other hand, robots could be used in place where they are very dangerous.
Killer robots in wars is one example. There are also spy robots. Many people fear to be jobless
because they will be replaced with robots. No matter what people think of robots, they shouldn’t
ignore the change happening in the world. Many people believe that joining the wave and learning
the new technology will help us “befriend the robots” and compete with the digital world. Human
intelligence.
