How can we know that the birds we see in the South in the winter are the same ones that come north in the spring? Once John Audubon a bird lover, wondered about this. Every year he watched a pair of little phoebes nesting in the same place. How wondered if they were the same birds. He decided to put tiny silver bands on their legs. The next spring back came the birds with the brands to very same place. Back same the young birds to build their nestson the walls of farm buildings in the neighbourhood. The phoebe, it was learned, in winter wherever it was warm enough to find flies. In summer, phoebes could be seen from Georgia to Canada in winter anywhere from Georgia to Flordia and Mexico. The poebe was the first kind of bird to be branded, and Mr. Audubon was the first birdbander. Today there are hundreds of birdbanders all over America. These peoples band all kinds of birds.

The government of the United States has a special birdbanding department which makes all the birdbands. The bands do not hurt the birds, as they are made of aluminum and are very light. They come in different sizes for different size birds. Each band has a special number. On each band are these words: “Notify Fish and Wildfife service, Washington D.C”. Anyone who finds a dead bird a band on as legs is asked to send the band to Washington with a note telling where and when the bird was found. In this way naturalists add to their knowledge of the habit and needs of birds.

Reading the passage and answer the questions below: Opinion polls are now beginning to show a reluctant consensus that, whoever

is to blame and whatever happens from now on, high unemployment is probably here to stay. This means we shall have to find ways to share tha available employment more widely. But we need to go further. We must ask some fundamental questions about the future of work. Should we continue to treat employment as the norm? Should we not create conditions in which many of us can work ourselves, rather than for an employer? Should we not aim to revise the household and the neighborhood, as well as the factories and the offices, as the center of production and work?

people’s work has taken the form of jobs. The industrial age may now becoming to an end, and some of the changes in work patterns which it brought

may have to be reverved. This seemed a daughting thought. But, in fact, it could offer a prospect of a better future for work. Universal employment, as its history shows, has not meant economic freedom. Employment became widespread when the enclosures of the 17th and 18th centuries made many people dependent on paid work by depriving them of the use of land, and thus of the means to provide a living for themselves.

He was one of the famous Dublin Zoo lions and was probably about the 50 th

generation born in captivity. On his arrival, he was only about the size of a small dog, and so he was housed in a cage in the Mammal House, but he grew at such a pace that it was soon imperative that we find hime more spacious quarters. We had just finished construction of a large cage for the chimpanzees, and decided that we would put Leo there until we could get around to building him a cage of his own. So Leo was tranferred and settles down very happily.1. Explain the phrase born in captivity………………………………………………………………………2.

The center room had been given to Robert, and the room nearest to the main building was normally occupied by two guards. Robert did not know who occupied the third. He had once tried to open the connecting door between it and his own room, but it was locked. He had only discovered it was a bedroom by looking quickly through a narrow gap in the curtains early one morning as he when for a walk,

before the two guards, who followed him everywhere at fifty yards distance, had rounded the corner of the hut.

misusing a good one, from being tricked by dangerous quackery, or from unknowingly possessing an item harmful to health.First of all, the label on a can or package of food must be completely truthful. If a loaf of bread is made with soy flour, the loaf cannot be labeled as white bread.A label must not be misleading. This restriction is somewhat vague and therefore cannot prevent all violations. Although the government tries to eliminate all misleading labels, the consumer must nevertheless be always on guard. Just because a can os sardines has a fancy-sounding foreign name, do not take for granted the fish were imported. That is a law too that manufacturers must list their names and places of business on their labels. Manufacturers must use common names in identifying their products so that anyone can readily understand what he is buying. Synthetic foods must be prominently labeled as artificial. Food composed of two or more igredigents must bear labels listing all ingredigents in the order of predominance.1. According to the article.

What does the author suggest?……………………………………………………………………………………4. What may a foreign name on a label cause?………………………………………………………………………………………5. Where must the most important ingredient of a product be listed?………………………………………………………………………………………Passage 2:Would you like a robot in your house? It is now generally accepted that in the future robots will take over many of your tasks, especially jobs of a repetiyive nature. But it’s doubt if robots will ever be able to do of the more creative types of work-or indeed if people would want them too. in the home robots would probably be used to do the cleaning, table-laying, scrubbing and washing up, but it’s considered unlikely so far that they will be used to do the cooking-at least not in the near future. robots in the home might not be creative enough to do the cooking, plan the meals and so on. Thay would be used as slaves, thereby freeing people to do more things they wanted.1. How is a robot accepted now?………………………………………………………………………………….2.

C. Tokyo had the second highest temperature. It was only 20 C lower than in Singapore at noon. The temperature in Rome at noon was 300 C. The same as in New York, one degree higher than that in Athens and Hong Kong. The temperature at midnight was the same as the temperature at midnight in Paris, but its noon temperature was 240 C. The coolest city was London, with a temperature of only 220 C at noon and 130 C at midnight.The five cities with the highest temperature had a lot of sunshine throughout the day.

In other words, it is dirty, and people need to clean it. When they clean or refine it, they manufacture different products. They put the oi into the furnace to heat it. The lightest part of the oil becomes natural gas. We use the natural gas to heat our homes and to cook with. The heaviest part of the oil becomes asphalt. We use asphalt to pave roads and parking lots. In between the natural gas and the asphalt, this process produces gasoline, kerosene, heating oil, and lubricating oil. We use gasoline to operate our cars. We need lubricating oil to grease machines and other mental objects with moving parts, for example, sewing machine.1.
