Task 4. Read the following text and answer the questions that follow!
Cattle play a major role in modern society. Broadly speaking, there are four major
categories for the use of cattle: food, work, commercial products and sports. Over fifty
percent of the meat we eat is beef or veal, and more than ninety-five percent of the worlds
milk supply is from cattle.
In developing countries like Ethiopia, cattle play a role in agriculture by pulling plows
and carts. In countries like Sudan and Chad, cattle are often used as a pack animal.
Additionally, many commercial products are derived from cattle. Glue for instance, is made
from their bones, leather goods such as bags and shoes, from their hides. Certain type of
carpets and blankets, and even brushes are made from cow hair.
If that is not enough, one popular spectator sport in Oklahoma in the United States is
the rodeo, where cattle play an important role. In Spain and Mexico, their task is grueling as
they provide entertainment for the bullfighter.

Task 10. Read the text carefully and answer the questions that follow!
Air pollution is one of the harmful substances that cause damage to the environment,
human health, and quality of life.
It makes people sick like having breathing problems and cancers. It also harms
plants, animals, and ecosystems in which they live. Some air pollutants return to earth in the
form of acid rain and snow which corrode statues and buildings damage crops and
forests, make lakes and streams unsuitable for fish and other plant and animal life.
Pollution is changing earths atmosphere so that it lets in more harmful radiation
from the sun. At the same time, our polluted atmosphere is becoming a better insulator,
preventing heat from escaping back into space and heading to rise in global average
temperature. Scientists predict that the temperature increase called , global warming, will
affect world supply, change sea level, make weather more extreme, and increase the spread
tropical disease.
Most air pollution comes from one human activity: burning fossil fuels - natural gas,
coal and oil to power industrial processes and motor vehicles.
Among the harmful chemical compounds put into the atmosphere are carbon
dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogenoxides, sulfur dioxide and tiny solid particle, called
particulates. Between 1900 and 1970, motor vehicle use expanded rapidly, and emissions of
nitrogen oxides increased 690 percent. When fuels are incompletely burned, various
chemicals called volatile organic chemical (VOCs) also enter the air. Pollutants also come
from other sources. For instance, decomposing garbage in landfills and solid waste disposal
sites emits methane gas and many products give off VOCs.
Some of these pollutants also come from natural sources. For example, forest fires
emit particulates and VOCs into the atmosphere. Volcanoes spew out sulfur dioxide and
large amount of lava rock called volcanic ash. A big volcanic eruption can darken the sky
and affect the earths atmosphere. The 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines,
for example, dumped enough volcanic ash into the upper atmosphere to lower global
temperatures for the next two years. Unlike pollutants from human activity however, natural
pollutants tend to remain in the atmosphere for a short time and do not lead to permanent
atmosphere change

Thesis
Hey guys! Nice to see you again. Welcome back again in the Young
Learners programme. This time Id like to interview a high school
student named, Melisa.
Good morning Melisa.
Good morning. Nice to see you
Well guys. In this occasion wed talk about an interesting topic. Guess
what it is.uhhit is HOMEWORK!.
Okey. Melisa. Do your teachers always give you homework to do at
home?
Most of the time
Hmreally? And what do you feel about that? Is it effective or
ineffective?
Well, I think that homework is ineffective in developing students skill
Oh..that surprises me. Tell me about that!
Well, firstly homework is a burden, because you are just forced to do
tasks that you already know how to do.
Now, thats an interesting point. And then?
Hmm.secondly , homework is ineffective because the task you do
seems like memorizing. Most of the tasks you must do have already
been known and therefore you dont discover anything
Aha..is there any other reason?
Yes, another way in which homework is ineffective is because when
most kids come home from school theyre usually tired from all the
work that they have done during the day.
Those are good reasons, Melisa. So what is your conclusion then?
My conclusion is that homework is ineffective and is not the best way
to develop students skills.
Well, thank you Melisa. See you.
See you guys.

Answer the following questions based on the text.
TEXT 1.
A laptop is a kind of computer unit which has the same function as a PC (personal
computer), but it is smaller, lighter and of different sizes. Nowadays, most people choose
source of electric energy. So if we prefer using a laptop, it means that we support the
government program to save energy.
Thats why a laptop has become very popular recently.laptop for several reasons.
A laptop is a portable device. This portability is very helpful for our work, study and
other activities. We do not need complicated cable installations to activate a laptop, and with
a laptop, we can do our work anytime ,anywhere.
Moreover, a laptop allows us to acces the internet in public places which provide free
access called hot spot areas. Some people like to use this facility to carry out their tasks.
Finally, a laptop consumes energy more efficiently than a PC does. This device uses
a rechargeable battery as a source of electric energy. So if we prefer using a laptop, it means
that we support the government program to save energy.
Thats why a laptop has become very popular recently.
