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. 
The search for alternative sources of energy has led in various directions. Many communities are burning garbage and other biological waste products to produce electricity- Converting waste products to gases or oil is also an efficient way to dispose of wastes. Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil shale, and coal tars. But to date, that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are underway to harness power with giant windmills. Geothermal power is also being tested. Some experts expect utility companies to revive hydroelectric power derived from streams and rivers. Fifty years ago hydroelectric power provided one third of the electricity used in the United States, but to day it supplies only 4 percent. The oceans are another potential source of energy. Scientists are studying ways to convert the energy of ocean currents, tides, and waves to electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of temperature differences in ocean water to produce energy.
Question 21: What is the best title of the passage?
A. The Use of Water Products for Energy
B. The Search for Alternative Sources of Energy
C. Efficient Ways of Disposing of Waste
D. New Discoveries in Geothermal Power
Question 22: What provided one third of the electricity in the United States fifty years ago?
A. wind 	B. waste products 	C. water 	D. oil
Question 23: What could Rest replace the phrase 'geothermal power' in the passage?
A. heat from the earth	B. gases in the earth's atmosphere
C. steam that shot up out of the earth	D. water in the ocean, lake, or river
Question 24: Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage as an alternative source of energy?
A. Burning of garbage 	B. Geothermal power	C. Synthetic fuels 	D. Electricity.

TAPESCRIPT 1 (QUESTIONS 1-4)
Todd: So, Ruthie, what did you do today?
Ruth: Well, I got up quite early this morning, actually, to go shopping.
Todd: Oh, yeah! (Yeah) Ooh, shopping.
Ruth: I really like shopping.
Todd: That's true but you're on a budget. You're trying to save money.
Ruth: I know, but is was my brother's birthday. Well, it is my brother's birthday in a week so.
Todd: Oh, no kidding.
Ruth: Yeah.
Todd: So, what did you get your brother for his birthday?
Ruth: Well, it was quite difficult to find something that I thought he would like, but I got him some cakes in the end, some Japanese cakes.
Todd: Japanese cakes?
Ruth: Yeah, they're in like a special presentation box.
Todd: So, how are you going to get the cakes to your brother? Just through the post office?
Ruth: Yes, I sent them in the post this morning.
Todd: Oh, did you send them express or just regular mail?
Ruth: No, regular mail because it was cheaper.
Todd: But, don't you want it to hurry and get there for his birthday?
Ruth: I've got one week. I think it will get there in time.
Todd: So, what do you think you're brother will think of the cakes?
Ruth: I don't think he'll like them actually.
Todd: No?
Ruth: Well, he likes chocolate cake, and they look like they've got kind of chocolate inside but it's bean paste. I think he'll be disappointed.
Todd: So what did you brother get you for your last birthday?
Ruth: That's a good question. He always gives me money, and he often gives me chocolate as well. He's very generous.
Todd: Actually, I'm the same way. Guys like to give money. Money is so easy. No shopping involved.
Ruth: It's practical, though, it's good.
Todd: Now, I've been told that when you give money for a gift, it's actually very impolite.
Ruth: Really?
Todd: Is that true? Yeah!
Ruth: Why is that?
Todd: I don't know. Some people say it's just really impersonal. That you should take the time to get a gift.
Ruth: Really! I really think if anybody gave me money I would be so pleased. It's a good present.
Todd: Exactly, that's what I think. (Pause) Hey, um, actually, when are you going to see your brother next?
Ruth: Probably, I will see him in August of September.
Todd: Oh, that's quite a ways away.
Ruth: Yes, about four months is that.
Todd: So is this a younger brother or older brother?
Ruth: He's older. He's twenty-six.
Todd: Oh, he's twenty six.
Ruth: He's going to be twenty-six soon.
Todd: Ok, well, if you happen to e-mail him, tell him happy birthday.
Ruth: Oh, certainly will do. Thanks.
TAPESCRIPT 2 (QUESTIONS 5-8)
Enam: Katia, what are the environmental problems in your country?
Katia: Well, I can think of three problems. One is water drought. Thescarcity of water. Second, we have a lot of air pollution, and third a lot of deforestation.
Enam: OK, so can you tell me aboutdeforestation in your country?
Katia: Well, Mexico is big and we have areas that have a lot of trees, but unfortunately many factories have been moving into that area in particular and they take down the trees. That has been happening for so long that the areas have increased and because of that a lot of indigenousare displaced as well as a lot the animals have died or it has decreased so unfortunately that has been a big problem in certain parts of Mexico, but then of course there are some things that are being done. For example, the government has placed certain areas that are to remain untouched and also they are bringing more trees in certain areas and planting them and hopefully it will bring the green area back to where it was before.
Enam: Really, that's good. But how bad is the water scarcity problem?
Katia: Well, water scarcity I think is one of the major problems Mexico has. For example, I can just talk about Mexico city. Mexico City was built on top of a lake and we Mexicans have been using the water from the lake to supply out water needs but this has been going on for so long that we basically use all the water that was left and now we trying to figure out where to bring water from. This is a big problem that Mexico faces. We don't have many wells that we can get water from. And unfortunately also a big problem is with the piping system a lot of lakes and actually a big percentage of our water is lost through leaks. What is being done about that problem? Well, first, they're fixing the pipes. That's a basic way to start. Also, we are only allowed to use water certain days of the week to water our garden or wash our trees or wash our cars and so yeah, and I think the Mexicans are becoming moreconscious on how to use water, so I think hopefully that will help with the water scarcity problem.
Enam: And what about air pollution?
Katia: Well, actually we also have the air pollution problem, and if you go to Mexico, if it's any day of the week, from Monday to Friday, it's very hard to see the sun. It's always very cloudy. Your skin becomes very dirty actually, and it's very hard to breathe because of the high contamination. There are many cars: too many cars that is really hard to breathe, and you can tell that also by sun. Saturday and Sunday. you can actually see the sun because a lot of the people are not driving since it's the weekend, and also it was said that you could measure the pollution of Mexico City by counting how many dead birds you can find on the streets because of the high contamination, but yeah unfortunately a very bad situation however Mexico has put some rules that if you have a car, you can only drive on certain days of the week, and that anytime so hopefully that has ... that will help in the future to prevent much more contamination and of course there are other things that have been done. There are more parks to help with the pollution, but yeah, I think this is the main thing they have done regarding the transportation. Just preventing people from driving as much as they want.
