The Three Sheiks and Queen of Arabia

Maura, who liked to be thought of as the most beautiful and powerful queen of Arabia, had many suitors. One by one she discarded them, until her list was reduced to just three sheiks, all equally young and handsome, rich and strong. It was very hard to decide who would be the best of them.

One evening, Maura disguised herself and went to the camp of the three sheiks, as they were about to have dinner, and asked them for something to eat. 

The first gave her some leftover food; the second gave her some unappetizing camel’s tail; the third sheik, who was called Hakim, offered her some of the most tender and tasty meat. After dinner, the disguised queen left the sheiks’ camp.

The following day the queen invited the three sheiks to dinner at her palace. She ordered her servants to give each one exactly what they had given her the evening before. 

Hakim, who received a plate of delicious meat, refused to eat it if the other two could not share it with him, and this act finally convinced Queen Maura that he was the man for her.

Some of the world’s finest roads make use of bodies of water. They are called canals.

Canals are man made waterways. They are usually straight and narrow. But they are filled with water. They connect rivers and lakes, oceans and lakes, rivers and rivers, and oceans and oceans so that boats and ships can go from one to the other.

Most canals are used for transportation. Barges, boats, and ships carry goods over canals. Some are used irrigate land or to carry sewage from large cities. Canals also reduce the cost of shopping goods and offer travel short cuts.

Canals even go over hills and mountains. But you know that water can’t flow up a hill; so how can the water and boats in a canal go up a hill?

Something called a lock is used. It is a giant tank. The tank is big enough to hold a long boat. The boat floats into the tank, and the doors behind it are closed to lock the boat in there. Then more water is let into the tank. When the tank is full of water, the tank door in front of the boat is opened and the boat floats out. The boat floats higher and higher as the water rises. It floats either out into a higher part of the canal or into another tank or lock, which will lift is still higher.

To go down the hill on the other side, the boat enters a lock that is full of water. As the water is let out, the boat will float lower and lower. So locks make it possible for boats or ships to move from one water level to another.

Mangrove Trees

A mangrove is a tropical marine tree or shrub of the genus Rhizhopora. Mangroves have special aerial roots and salt-filtering tap roots that enable them to thrive in brackish water (brackish water is salty, but not as salty as sea water).

There are several species of mangrove tress found all over the world. Some prefer more salinity, while others like to be very close to a large fresh water source (such as a river). Some prefer areas that are sheltered from waves. Some species have roots covered with sea water everyday during high tide. Other species grow on dry land, but are still part of the ecosystem. 

Mangroves need to keep their trunk and leaves above the surface of the water. Yet they also need to be firmly attached to the ground so they are not moved by waves. There are three types of mangrove roots that play an important role for it: 

(1) support roots which directly pierce the soil.

(2) level-growing roots which twist upwards and downwards, with the upward twists emerging on the water surface.

(3) level-growing roots whose downward twist (sub-roots) appear on the water surface.

Any part of a root that appears above the water flows oxygen to the plant under water surface. As the soil begins to build up, these roots produce additional roots that become embedded in the soil.

A. Mangrove grow on dry land

B. The trunk should be above the water surface.

C. The leaves should be above the water surface.

D. The trees should be firmly attached to the ground.

E. The parts of the plant under the water should have enough salt.

Petroleum products, such as gasoline, kerosene, home heating oil, residual fuel oil and lubricating oils, come from one source. Crude oil is found below the earth surface, as well as under large bodies of water, from a few hundred feet below the surface to as deep as 25.000 feet into the earth interior. Crude oil is obtained by drilling a hole through the earth, but sometimes more dry holes are drilled than those producing oil. Pressure at the source, or pumping, forces the crude oil to the surface. 

Crude oil wells flow at varying rates, from ten to thousands of barrels per hour. Petroleum products vary 

Greatly in physical appearance: thin, thick, transparent, or opaque. Their chemical compositions are made up of only two elements: carbon and hydrogen, which form compounds called hydrocarbons. Other chemical elements found in the union classified as impurities. Trace elements are also found, but these are of such minute quantities that they are disregarded.

Breaking and Entering is an unusual film. Will and Sandy are two architects working on a major urban renewal project in the King’s Cross section in London. The area is unsafe and ready for such a project. Will and Sandy move their offices into a nearby vacant warehouse.

Will has to deal with constant burglaries at his new office. One night, he saw Miro trying to break into the building. He chased Miro to his run down apartments block and watched him return home to his mother, Amira, a Bosnian immigrant who makes a living tailoring clothes. Soon, Will ‘meet’ Amira and they begin an affair. And Amira learns that Will hold the key of her son’s future. How far will this mother go to protect her son?

Breaking and Entering is a very interesting film, but it is almost entirely character driven. This is not a bad thing although in the film we are exposed to a story or action driven.

Nuclear power is generated by using uranium, which is a metal mined in various parts of the world. The first large-scale nuclear power station was opened at Calder Hall in Cumbria, England, in 1956. 

Some military ships and submarines have nuclear power plant for engines. Nuclear power produces around 11% of the world’s energy needed, and produces huge amounts of energy. It causes no pollution as you’d get when burning fossil fuels. 

The advantages of nuclear is as follows:

(1) It costs about the same as coal, so it’s not expensive to make.

(2) It doesn’t produce smoke or carbon dioxide, so it doesn’t contribute to the greenhouse effect.

(3) It produces huge amounts of energy from small amounts of uranium.

(4) It produces small amounts of waste.

(5) It is reliable.

On the other hand, nuclear power is very, very dangerous. It must be sealed up and buried for many years to allow the radioactivity to die away. Furthermore, although it is reliable, a lot of money has to be spent on safety because if it does go wrong, a nuclear accident can be a major disaster.

People are increasingly concerned about this. In the 1990’s nuclear power was the fastest, growing source of power in many parts of the world. In 2005, it was the 2nd slowest-growing.

26. The text discusses ….

A. nuclear in general

B. nuclear biggest station

C. the danger of radioactive

D. the disadvantages of nuclear power

B. dull

C. tiny

D. calm

E. safe

28. Why is nuclear power very dangerous?

Because ….

A. it is radioactivity lasts long

B. uranium is renewable

C. it is reliable

D. it is cheap

E. it is safe

29. Which statements is TRUE about nuclear?

A. It is reliable.

B. It is costly to make.

C. It causes air pollution.

D. It affects the greenhouse.

E. It produces small amounts of energy.

Last week I took my five-year old son, Willy, to a musical instrument store in my hometown. I wanted to buy him a set of junior drum because his drum teacher advised me to buy him one.
