4) Read the following passage and then answer the questions:


The problem of overpopulation, which Egypt faces today, is considered one
of the problems of the hour. It is considered a fierce challenge that faces our
society. Let's examine this serious problem together in some aspects.
On one hand, progress in medical health is an important factor that has
contributed to the growth of the problem. In the past, people often died of some
diseases because they were ignorant of how they should be cured. Nowadays,
progress in medicine provides the remedies, decreasing the rate of death. On the
other hand, the
birth rate is still increasing. Thus, a simple equation would prove that a
decrease in death rates plus an increase in birth rates equals an increase in
population. The problem is endless because one thing leads to another.
Here are some suggestions which may provide solutions to this serious
problem. We should start by going to the desert land and building new cities. Birth
control is one solution. The media (the TV, the radio and the newspapers) remind
us constantly of the necessity of birth control. We have to see our dear country in
happiness and prosperity.
A-Answer the following questions:
1- Mention two ways for solving the problem of overpopulation.
We should start by going to the desert land , building new cities and Birth control.
2- Why did many people die in the past?
because they were ignorant of how they should be cured
3- Find words in the passage that mean:
a- treatment for curing disease b- continuously
Remedies constantly

B- Choose the correct answer from a, b, c, or d:


4-The problem is endless because one thing.............................
a- leads to another b- destroys the others
c- stops the others d- helps the other one

Computers are a major technological breakthrough of the twenty-first century.
Their benefits are numerous; yet, much can be said against them.
The main disadvantage of a computer is that staring at a screen for long periods
of time can be damaging to the eyes, and sitting for hours at a time is certainly not
healthy. Secondly, computers distract from social interactions such as conversation.
People can be inclined to become anti-social, and stay at home to use their computer.
Finally, one of themajor arguments against the use of computers is that the more the
jobs done by computers, the fewer the ones done by people.
However, the advantages of computers are numerous, such as the undeniable
educational benefits, especially to children. School subjects become more interesting
when presented on a computer screen. Moreover, computers can be fun with
a seemingly endless variety of games which can be played on them. In addition,
computers are valuable to any business, making life easier and saving time by being
capable of storing and retrieving vast amounts of information at the touch of a button.
Furthermore,personal gains can be seen as the use of computers increases the powers
ofconcentration. To sum up, there are strong arguments both for and against the use
of computers.

4- Read the following passage and then answer the questions:


People are trying many ways to solve the problem of finding "green energy" that
is clean and does not cause pollution. In some places, plants are being grown which
can be used as food and fuel. For example, sunflowers are grown for the oil in their
seeds. However, once the seeds have been taken out, the rest of the plant can be dried
and burnt. An old solution in India is to dry animal waste and form it into bricks for
burning. The Chinese improve on this and keep the waste until it produces methane
gas which they use for cooking and heating.
Solar power could be one of the best future sources of energy. All over the world
it is already being used for such jobs as heating water and houses and powering
machines to water plants. But there is a way to make even better use of the sun.
In space, because the sun never stops shining, it can supply solar energy for
twenty- four hours a day. Space scientists have suggested building a solar power
station in space.It would produce huge amounts of power which could be sent down
to the earth. To build a station in space like this would be very expensive, but once
the station is working, the energy from it would be almost free.

A-Answer the following questions:


1- When can the sunflower plant be dried and burnt?
Once the seeds have been taken out.
2- Why do scientists think of having solar station in space?
Because it would produce huge amounts of power which could be sent down to the
earth.
3-How can a station in space be economical in the long run?
Once the station starts working, the energy from it would be almost free.

B- Choose the correct answer from a, b, c, or d:


4- Solar power means energy from..........................
a- plants b-atoms c-fossil fuels d-the sun

4 - Read the following text & answer the following questions:

Imagine telling Einstein to stop studying physics. Imagine telling Picasso to


stop painting. Could they stop doing the things they loved? This is what people
tried to do to Sophie Germain.
Sophie's love was mathematics. She fell in love with it when she was only 13
years old. She found a book about Archimedes and his love of geometry in her
father's library.Then she read all the books about math she could find and decided
to become a mathematician.
There were two problems. First, Sophie was born in eighteenth-century France.
Second, Sophie was a girl from a middle-class family. It was very unusual for girls from the
middle class to study math in the early eighteenth century in France.
Sophie's parents wanted her to be like other girls. When she studied math, they
tried to stop her. Sophie didn't want to stop. She studied secretly at night, by
candlelight, when her parents slept. Sophie's parents found out, and they took away
her candles. That didn't stop Sophie. She found more candles. Finally, her parents
decided to let Sophie study. It was too hard to stop her!
When Sophie was 18 years old, a school for mathematicians opened in Paris.
Sophie couldn't take classes there because it was for men only.
However, she didn't let this discrimination against women stop her. She started
writing letters to math professors at the school. She asked them questions, and she
wrote about her ideas. However, she didn't sign her own name on the letters. She used
a man's name, Monsieur LeBlanc a student at the school at one time. This idea
worked, and the professors responded to her letters. After a while, one professor
asked to meet the brilliant Monsieur LeBlanc. Imagine his surprise! Monsieur LeBlanc
was a woman. The professor didn't tell anyone. He kept Sophie's secret.

Sophie continued to write to other mathematicians. She always signed her


letters Monsieur LeBlanc. She met some of these experts, but they usually stopped
helping her after a short time. Was it because she was a woman? No one is sure.
However, we do know one thing: There was strong prejudice against educated women
in Sophie's time. This created a difficult challenge, but it didn't stop her.
Sophie continued to study. She taught herself other kinds of math, such as
algebra and calculus. She is famous for her excellent work on a difficult math problem"
that was a challenge for many other mathematicians. Sophie is also famous for her
studies of metal as a building material. Years later, engineers used her ideas to build
skyscrapers, such as the Eiffel Tower in Paris, Sophie's hometown.
Today, on the base of the Eiffel Tower, there are 72 names of brilliant
French scientists and mathematicians. These people all made great contributions
to the world. However, there's one important name that's missing: Sophie
Germain.
A) Answer the following questions:

1) Why was it a problem for Sophie to study mathematics?


Sophie was a girl from a middle-class family. It was very unusual for girls from the middle
class to study math in the early eighteenth century in France
2) Why did the professors respond to Sophie's letters?
She used a man's name, Monsieur LeBlanc a student at the school at one time

4 - Read the following text and answer the following questions:
Babies normally start to talk when they are 13 to 15 months old. Ryan Jones is only
eight months old, but he is already "talking" with his parents. When he is hungry, he
opens and closes his hand. This means milk. He also knows the signs for his favorite
toy.
Ryan is not deaf, and his parents are not deaf, but his mother and father are teaching
him to sign. They say a word and make a sign at the same time. They repeat this again
and again. When Ryan learns a new sign, his family is very excited. Ryan's parents
think that he will be a happier baby because he can communicate with them.
Ryan's parents are teaching Ryan to sign because of a man named Joseph Garcia.
Although Garcia was not from a deaf family, he decided to learn American Sign
Language (ASL). First,he took courses in ASL. Then he got a job helping deaf people
communicate with hearing people. In his work, he saw many deaf parents sign to their
infants. He noticed that these babies were able to communicate much earlier than
hearing children. They talked with signs by the time they were eight months old.
When they were one year old, they could use as many as 50 signs.
Garcia decided to try something new. He taught ASL to parents who were not deaf.
The families started to teach signs to their infants when they were six or seven
months old. These babies started using signs about two months later.
More and more parents took Garcia's ASL classes. Like Ryan's family, they were
excited about signing with their babies. They wanted to give their babies a way to
communicate before they could use spoken words.
Some people worry about signing to babies. They are afraid that these babies won't
feel a need to talk. Maybe they will develop spoken language later than other babies.
However,research does not show this. In fact, one study found just the opposite.
Signing babies actually learned to speak earlier than other children. As they grow
older, these children are more interested in books. They also score higher on
intelligence tests.
There is still a big question for parents: Which are the best signs to teach their
babies? Some parents make their own signs. Other parents want to teach ASL. It
can be useful because many people understand it. There's no clear answer, but we
do know this: All signing babies and their families are talking quite a lot!
A) Answer the following questions:
1) Why are Ryan's parents teaching him to sign?
Ryan's parents think that he will be a happier baby because he can communicate with them.
2) What is the most important reason that hearing parents teach their babies to sign?
They want to give their babies a way to communicate before they could use spoken words
3) Do you think there will be more "signing babies" in the future? Why or why not?
Any proper answer.

B) Choose the correct answer:


1. Which sentence is the main idea of the reading?
a. Joseph Garcia is not from a deaf family.
b. Parents who are deaf are teaching their babies to sign.
c. Parents who can hear are teaching their babies to sign.
2. Which sentence is true about Joseph Garcia?
a. Garcia taught ASL to infants.
b. Garcia taught deaf parents how to sign to their infants.

Have you ever felt a sudden feeling of joy because you heard a favorite song
playing?Then you know that music can have a strong effect on your emotions. Try to
take an advantage of this power of music. It can help get you out of a bad mood or
stay in a good mood, says Alicia Ann Clair, professor of music therapy at the
University of Kansas. Music can also help you relax and feel rejuvenated.
To cheer up or boost your energy, listen to Latin music or anything with a ,
strong beatlots of percussion, and a fast tempo. When you want to relax after a busy
day, music with string instruments and woodwinds, less percussion, and a slower
tempo can calm you.
Listen to calming music before you start any stressful activities, advises Dr.
Clair. "Once you're in a good state of mind, it's easier to maintain it." You can lower
stress at work with music, too, by playing relaxing tunes. But only play them when
you really need them. "If you listen to them all day long, you’ll stop noticing them."
Dr. Clair explains. Thenthe music won’t have any effect.
You can change your mood by switching from one kind of music to another. To
feelrejuvenated, "Start with something serene and relaxing, and then gradually
increase the tempo and beat," says Dr. Clair. For example, first play some nice gentle
ballads, and thenlisten to something more energetic. When you want to calm down
after a busy week at work, just do the opposite.
Answer the following questions:

1) What is a good piece of music or a song to listen to before you do something


stressful?Why?
We can listen to calming music.
2) How can people change their moods at the weekend?
By playing some nice gentle ballads and then listen to something more energetic.

4) Read the following text & answer the related questions:


The year is 1971. Ray Tomlinson is sitting in his office in Cambridge,
Massachusetts. He types a few letters on a keyboard. Then he moves to a second
computer in the room anreads the monitor. "Yes!" He just sent the first electronic
message from one computer to adifferent computer through a network.
What did this first e-mail, say? Tomlinson doesn't remember. Maybe it was just
a string of letters, like "q w e r t y u i o p." He does remember the second message.
He sent itto his co-workers. This second e-mail message told people how to send e-
mail on the computer network.
Before 1971, there was no e-mail. In those days, people didn't have small
computerson their desks. They only had keyboards and monitors. These were all
connected to a big computer. People could only send messages to other people on
the same computer. They could send files to other computers through the network,
but they couldn't "talk."
To solve this problem, Tomlinson needed a way to direct messages to the right
person on the right computer on any network. He chose the @ ("at") symbol. He
used @ to separate a person's name from the name of the computer the person was
using. The @ symbol was a good choice. This symbol was not in anyone's name. Few
people used it. In fact, typewriter companies thought about taking it off the
keyboard. Now @is used
2 million times every second!
No one really paid any attention to Tomlinson's achievement. In the 1970s,
only about 500 people used e-mail. They only used it to do projects at work. Then, in
the 1980s,the first personal computers arrived. They were small and not very
expensive. For the first time, people could have computers at home. Then came the
Internet. Soon e-mail became popular way to communicate. Today, over one billion
people use it. Office workers spend almost an hour a day on e-mail. Some people
check their e-mail 30 to 40 times an hour.

Tomlinson is sorry about one thing - spam. Spam is e-mail that no one wants.
Most ofit is advertising that tries to sell something. As much as 70 percent of each
day's 180 billion e-mail messages is spam. As the number of e-mail users grows, spam
is becoming more andmore of a problem. Unlike many other inventors, Tomlinson is
not famous. He never made any money from e-mail. Most people don't even know
his name. However, thanks to thisunknown hero, people all over the world can
communicate with each other in seconds.
A) Answer the following questions:
1) Why is email important to everyone? Explain through what you’ve read in the text.
Because people use it to communicate with each other.

2) Could you live without e-mail? Explain your answer.

wildlife reserve that protects the local monkeys, birds, and other animals. They also

animals and birds you see. You will sleep and eat on the boat and visit with other
