A-Read the following text and do the tasks
below:
Some of us may have questions about
mysterious
phenomena like; “Do you think there is life on
other planets?” or “Have you ever seen a
spaceship in real life?” In 1947, a pilot named
Kenneth Arnold reported seeing nine objects
resembling boomerangs in the sky. This
phenomenon is called UFO (unidentified flying
objects). This term is used to describe any
observation of alien spaceships. It is
called unidentified because it can’t be
immediately explained. Researchers think that
Arnold probably saw a flock of birds and
couldn’t tell their exact size, so he didn’t know
that their large wings created the “V” shape
which he described.

B- Read the following text and do the tasks below:
The term “Déjà vu” means in English “already
seen” and it is one of the human supernatural
powers which results from the subconscious. There
are many explanations for this phenomenon. Some
researchers believe that déjà vu is our memory
about dreams. Other scientists say that the embryo
sees his whole life when it is still in his mother’s
womb, and so it feels déjà vu as a recall from his
memories. Giordano, a professor of neurology
says: “We experience the most déjà vu between
the periods of 15 and 25”. If you experience déjà
vu a lot that means that you are young but you
can’t say that as you get older your chances to
experience déjà vu will vanish, you should
definitely enjoy it when it appears.
