Coal, oil and natural gas supply modern civilization with most of its power However, not only are

supplies of these fuels limited, but they are a major source of pollution Therefore, it’s important to improve, explore and develop such alternatives energy sources as nuclear, water, solar and wind power Each of these

alternatives, however, has advantages and disadvantages

Nuclear power plants efficiently produce large amounts of electricity without polluting the

atmosphere; however, they are costly to build and maintain, and they create the difficult problem of what to

do with nuclear waste Hydroelectric power is inexpensive and environmentally safe, but impractical for

communities located far from moving water Wind power is a pollution — free source of renewable energy but

it can’t be used in many parts of the world where there is insufficient wind Solar power is renewable, it does not cause pollution and it does not add the earth’s heat load However, it is difficult to collect and store Solar

power also requires expensive equipment

One of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the Great Pyramid of Giza was a monument of wisdom and prophecy built as a tomb for Pharaoh Cheops in 2720 BC Despite its antiquity, certain aspects of its construction make it one of the truly great wonders of the world The thirteen - acre structure near the Nile River is the solid mass of stone blocks covered with limestone Inside are the number of

hidden passageways and the burial chamber for the pharaoh It is the largest single structure in the world

The four sides of the pyramid are aligned almost exactly on true north, south, east and west — an incredible

engineering feat The ancient Egyptians were sun worshipers and great astronomers, so computations for

the Great Pyramid were based on astronomical observations

Explorations and detailed examinations of the base of the structure reveal many interesting lines

Further scientific study indicates that these represent a type of timeline of events — past, present, and

future Many of the events have been interpreted and found to coincide with known facts of the past

Others are prophesied for future generations and are currently under investigation Many believe that

pyramids have supernatural powers and this one is no exception Some researchers even associate it with

extraterrestrial beings of the ancient past

Was this superstructure made by ordinary beings, or one built by a race far superior to any known

today?

1 What has research of the base revealed?

A The lines represent important events B Tomb robbers have stolen the pharach’s body C There are cracks in the foundation D A superior race of people built it

2 Extraterrestrial beings are ;

A astronomers in the ancient times B very strong wonders

Education in Bolivia, as in many other areas of Bolivia life, has a divide between Bolivia’s

rural and urban areas Rural illiteracy levels remain high, even as the rest of the country becomes

increasingly literate This disparity stems partly from the fact that many children living in rural areas are forced to contribute economically to their family households and thus are much less likely to attend school On average, children from rural areas attend school for 4.2 years, while children in urban areas receive an average of 9.4 years of education A gender divide also exists

Females, on average, receive about 1.5 years less schooling than males The female illiteracy rate

is 19.6 % while that for males is 7.7 % The country’s illiteracy level as a whole, 13-14%, is

comparably higher than in other South American countries The problems with Bolivia education

are not necessarily attributable to lack of funding Bolivia devotes 23% of its annual budget to educational expenditures, a higher percentage than in most other South American countries, albeit from a smaller national budget A comprehensive seven-year plan of education reform has made

some significant changes Initiated in 1994, the plan decentralized educational funding in order to

meet diverse local needs, improved teacher training and curricula, and changed the school grade

system Resistance from teachers’ unions, however, has slowed implementation of some of the

The Moon has been worshipped by primitive peoples and has inspired humans to create everything from lunar calendars to love sonnets, but what do we really know about it? The most accepted theory about the origin of the Moon is that it was formed of the debris from a massive collision with the young Earth about 4.6 billion years ago A huge body, perhaps the size of Mars, struck the Earth, throwing out an immense amount of debris that coalesced and cooled in orbit

around the Earth

The development of Earth is inextricably linked to the moon; the Moon’s gravitational

influence upon the Earth is the primary cause of ocean tides In fact, the Moon has more than

caused by an uneven distribution of mass in the Moon (essentially, it is heavier on one side than the other) and has allowed the Earth’s gravity to keep one side of the Moon permanently facing Earth It is an average distance from Earth of 384,403 km

The Moon has no atmosphere; without an atmosphere, the Moon has nothing to protect it from meteorite impacts, and thus the surface of the Moon is covered with impact craters, both

large and small The Moon also has no active tectonic or volcanic activity, so the erosive effects

of atmospheric weathering, tectonic shifts, and volcanic upheavals that tend to erase and reform

the Earth’s surface features are not at work on the Moon In fact, even tiny surface features such
