VII Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 61 to 70.
In this era of increased global warming and diminishing fossil fuel supplies, we must begin to put a
greater priority on harnessing alternative energy sources Fortunately, there are a number of readily available,
renewable resources that are both cost- effective and earth – friendly Two such resources are solar power and geothermal power
Solar energy, which reaches the earth through sunlight, is so abundant that it could meet the needs of worldwide energy consumption 6,000 times over And solar energy is easily harnessed through the use of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight to electricity In the US alone, more than 100, 000 homes are equipped with solar electric systems in the form of solar panels or solar roof tiles And in other parts of the world,
including many developing countries, the use of solar system is growing steadily
Another alternative energy source, which is abundant in specific geographical areas, is geothermal power, which creates energy by tapping heat from below the surface of the earth Hot water and steam that are trapped in underground pools are pumped to the surface and used to run a generator, which is produces
electricity Geothermal energy is
50, 000 times more abundant than the entire known supply of fossil fuel resources And as with solar power, the technology needed to utilize geothermal energy is fairly simple A prime example of effective geothermal use in Iceland, a region of high geothermal activity where over 80 percent of private homes are heated by geothermal power
Solar and geothermal energy are just two of promising renewable alternatives to conventional energy sources The time is long overdue to invest in the development and use of alternative energy on global scale
Question 61.What is the main topic of this passage ?
A The benefits of solar and wind power over conventional energy sources
B How energy resources are tapped from nature
C Two types of alternative energy sources that should be further utilized
D Examples of the use of energy sources worldwide
Question 62 According to the passage, why should we consider using alternative energy sources ?
A Because fossil fuels are no longer available
B Because global warming has increased the amount of sunlight that reaches the earth
C Because they are free and available worldwide
D Because conventional energy resources are being depleted, and they cause environmental damage
Question 63 Which of the following words could best replace the word “ harnessing”

II Topic: Parents are said to influence their children many different way What do you think about this?
Parents influence greatly their children for a lifetime I think people are molded by two factors, family and the society that they are in From birth, humans are influenced by the surrounding people for their characteristics Parents take a big role in bringing up children, which affects their lives for a long time.
In early infanthood, babies are looking to moms and dads to learn basic manners to be accepted in society Some of these manners include not running around in restaurants or hitting other kids As they grow up, they learn more from parents about social etiquette, which makes them more suitable to live in society Children tend to look to their parents for role models knowingly or unknowingly.
Besides, parents can also affect children's study habits Children of doctors, lawyers, investment bankers, and other professionals see their mothers and fathers work a lot of time, reading books, and punching keyboards, even at home They are showing their children how to study by their own behavior.
However, parents can also be a bad example for their kids It is difficult for children who have abusive parents to lead a normal childhood and is possible that they may become similar to their abusive parents when they grow up In this sense, the parents' negative role in shaping the children's personality cannot be emphasized more.
In conclusion, parents are the best teachers for their children They leave big marks on their children's lives and are therefore more influential teachers than any others they may have in their lives.
