Indeed, playing some of the more complicated games may help people of all ages to improve certain skills.

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 from 38 to 47.

In this era of increased global warming and diminishing fossil fuel supplies, we must begin to put a greater priority on harnessing alternative energy sources. Fortunately, there are a number of readily available, renewable resources that are both cost- effective and earth – friendly. Two such resources are solar power and geothermal power. Solar energy, which reaches the earth through sunlight, is so abundant that it could meet the needs of worldwide energy consumption 6,000 times over. And solar energy is easily harnessed through the use of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight to electricity. In the US alone, more than 100, 000 homes are equipped with solar electric systems in the form of solar panels or solar roof tiles. And in other parts of the world, including many developing countries, the use of solar system is growing steadily.

Another alternative energy source, which is abundant in specific geographical areas, is geothermal power, which creates energy by tapping heat from below the surface of the earth. Hot water and steam that are trapped in underground pools are pumped to the surface and used to run a generator, which is produces electricity. Geothermal energy is 50,000 times more abundant than the entire known supply of fossil fuel resources. And as with solar power, the technology needed to utilize geothermal energy is fairly simple. A prime example of effective geothermal use is in Iceland, a region of high geothermal activity where over 80 percent of private homes are heated by geothermal power. Solar and geothermal energy are just two of promising renewable alternatives to conventional energy sources. The time is long overdue to invest in the development and use of alternative energy on global scale.

Question 38. What is the main topic of this passage ?

A. The benefits of solar and wind power over conventional energy sources.

B. How energy resources are tapped from nature.

C. Two types of alternative energy sources that should be further utilized.

D. Examples of the use of energy sources worldwide.

Question 39. According to the passage, why should we consider using alternative energy sources ?

A. Because fossil fuels are no longer available.

B. Because global warming has increased the amount of sunlight that reaches the earth.

C. Because they are free and available worldwide.

D. Because conventional energy resources are being depleted, and they cause environmental damage.

Question 40. Which of the following words could best replace the word " harnessing"

A. Capturing B. Harassing C. Depleting D. Exporting

Question 41. According to the passage, what can be inferred about solar roof tiles?

A. They are being used in many undeveloped countries. C. They are more expensive than solar panels.

B. They can convert geothermal energy to electricity. D. They contain photovoltaic cells.

Question 42. According to the passage, how is solar energy production similar to geothermal energy production ?

A. They both require the use of a generator. B. They both use heat from the earth's surface.

C. They both require fairly simple technology. D. They are both conventional and costly.

Question 43. Where is the best place in the passage to insert the following sentence:

"Although the US is not utilizing geothermal resources to this extent, the Western US has a similar capacity to generate geothermal power"

A. after the phrase " earth-friendly" B. after the phrase " growing steadily"

C. after the phrase " by geothermal power" D. after the phrase " global scale"
