C- Reading Comprehension
5- Read the passage then answer the questions: (June, 2001)
People are trying many ways to solve the problem of finding "green" energy - energy that is clean and does not cause pollution. In some places plants are being grown which can be used as food and fuel. For example sunflowers are grown for the oil in their seeds. However, once the seeds have been taken out, the rest of the plant can be dried and burnt. An old solution in India is to dry animal waste and form it into bricks for burning. The Chinese improve on this and keep the waste until it produces methane gas which they use for cooking and heating.
Solar power could be one of the best future sources of energy. All over the world it is already being used for such jobs as heating water and houses and powering machines to water plants. But there is a way to make even better use of the sun.
In space, because the sun never stops shining, it can supply solar energy for twenty four hours a day. Space scientists have suggested building a solar power station in space. It would produce huge amounts of power which could be sent down to the Earth. To build a station in space like this would be very expensive, but once the station was working, the energy from it would be almost free.
A. Answer the following questions:
1. Why do scientists think of having solar stations in space?
2. How can a station in space be economical in the long run ?
3. What does green energy mean ?
B. Choose the correct answer:
4-Solar power means energy from -----------------.
a) plants b) atoms c) fossil d) the sun
5-The underlined word "this" refers to -------------.
a) drying animal waste b) getting oil from seeds
c) getting bricks from animal waste d) getting green energy
6- Read the passage then answer the questions:
People work together to make difficult jobs easier. If you had to move a heavy piece of furniture, from one room to another, would you do it by yourself or find someone to help you? As you would probably agree with a friend you can get the job done more quickly and neither of you will be as tired as afterwards.
For similar reasons, animals also use teamwork. In animal groups, each individual works to help the group as a whole. Each individual in the group contribute something that helps the other. It could be as difficult and dangerous as risking one's life to protect another member of the group. It takes a lot of energy to chase and kill prey. A pack of wolves can kill a large animal such as a deer, while one wolf can only kill a small animal such as a rat. Wolf packs, which consist of two to twenty wolves, may surprise their prey or pursue it for hours before attacking. If there are several animals, the pack will choose the weakest one because it will take less effort to catch.
A. Answer the following questions:
1-Which do you prefer, and why, to work in a group or to work alone?
2-How do we know that animals use teamwork?
3-What is meat by wolf pack?
B. Choose the correct answer:
4-One wolf can kill a ------------animal.
a) big b) small c) wild d) large
5-The underlines word "their" refers to the ------------------.
a) wolves b) deer c) hours d)rats

8- Write a letter to you British friend John inviting him to visit Egypt. Tell your friend about the weather in Egypt and the places he can visit.
9- A)Translate into Arabic: (August, 1999)
Learning a foreign language needs never stop. One should not learn a foreign language merely to achieve an immediate professional or academic aim and then give it up. He should carry on learning as it is a valuable experience that enriches his life.
