* Tape transcript:
“Are you using looking for cheep, clean, effective source power
that doesn’t cause pollution or waste natural resources? Look no
further than solar energy from our sun At present, most of our
electricity comes from the use of coal and gas, oil or nuclear
power This power could be provide by the sun One percent of
the solar energy that reaches the Earth is enough to provide
power for the total population

Many countries are already using solar energy Solar panels are
placed on the roof of a house and the Sun’s energy is used to
heat water The energy can be stored for a number of days, so
on cloudy days you can use solar energy too
Sweden has an advanced solar energy program There, all
buildings will be heated by solar energy and cars will use solar
power instead of gas by the year 2015”
II Gap-filling
- Have students look at exercise 4b on page 60 and work in
pairs to guess the words in the blank

3 A lot of countries in the world are already using solar energy
4 It is possible to store solar energy for a number of days
5 Solar panels are installed on the roof of a house to receive
the energy from the Sun
6 We can save natural resources by using solar energy instead
of coat, gas and oil
* Write it up:
- Have students write passage (about 100 words) about solar
energy, using the information in the two exercises above
* Sample:
Most of our electricity now comes from coal, gas, oil, or nuclear
power The sun could provide this power so many countries are
already using energy Only one percent of the solar energy that
gets to the Earth can provide enough power for the work’s
population Solar energy is a cheap, clean effective source of
power that doesn’t cause pollution or waste natural resources
There’s an advanced solar energy program in Sweden It is said
that by the year of 2015, all building in Sweden will be heated
by solar energy and cards will use solar power too
We hope that there is such a program in Vietnam We can save
natural resources such as coal, oil, gas… by using solar energy
And every house hold in Vietnam has hot water in Winter
without paying money
