Exercise 2: Read the passage and choose the best answer for the questions.
Movies, also known as films, have several genres, but they are made in a similar way. Basically, a
screenwriter writes a script, which is the story of the movie with words that the actors and actresses will say.
Actors, actresses and directors read scripts to find out what to say and what to do. The actors and actresses
memorize the words and learn the actions from the script that they will say and do in the movie. The director
tells the actors and actresses what to do and a cameraman takes motion pictures of them.
When filming has finished, an editor puts the moving pictures together. Audio engineers record music
and singing and join it with the moving pictures. When the movie is done, many copies of the movie are made
and sent to cinemas. An electric machine called a projector shines a very bright light through the movie, and
people sitting in a dark room see it on a big screen. After movies are shown on movie screens for a period of
time, movies are shown on television or on DVD so that people can watch the movies at home.

Cars and trucks are surely convenient, and most of US couldn’t live without them, but they have become
very expensive to run and harmful to the environment. Gas prices have been increasing, and carbon dioxide
missions from cars pollute the environment and contribute to global warming. As a result, hybrid cars and
electric cars have been economical and environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional vehicles. They
would be a good choice for the near future.
Hybrid cars combine two sources of energy such as a battery-powered electric motor and an internal
combustion engine. The driver decides which source of power is appropriate for a given journey. Short rides
to the grocery store or the post office could use the electric motor, while weekends in the country may
require the internal combustion engine.
Electric cars run on rechargeable batteries rather than fuel. They are rather quiet on the road. The best thing
about them is they cause about 97% less pollution than regular cars. But there are some disadvantages, too.
The battery runs out of energy after driving a short distance, and it takes much time to recharge the battery.
Electric cars also are expensive. Their batteries are still expensive and wear out in just a few years.
- internal combustion engine: động cơ đốt trong
- emission (n): sự thải ra
- wear out (v): hao mòn
1. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Cars of the Future B. Hybrid Cars
C. Electric Cars D. Hybrid Cars and Electric Cars
2. Traditional vehicles pollute the environment and contribute to global warming because
A. they use more gas B. they emit carbon-dioxide

A. They are vehicles that have two electric motors.
B. They are vehicles that have two internal combustion engines.
C. They can be used for short rides and long journeys.
D. They are vehicles that use two types of energy.
4. Which of the following is an advantage of electric cars according to the passage?
A. They cause about 97% less pollution than traditional cars.
B. The battery runs out of energy after driving a short distance.
C. The battery is expensive and wears out after a few years.
