5- Read the following passage, and then answer the questions:

Hibernation is one of the main adaptations that allow certain northern animals to survive long, cold winters. Hibernation is like a very deep sleep that allows animals to save their energy when there is little or no food available. The body functions of "true hibernators' go through several changes while they are hibernating. Body temperature drops, and the heart rate slows. True hibernators include the jumping mouse, little brown bat, eastern chipmunk, and several ground squirrels. Other animals, such as the skunk and raccoon, are not considered true hibernators, as they wake up in the winter to feed, and their body action do not change as much. Since they only sleep for a little bit at night, the term dormancy or 'light sleeping' is used to describe their behavior. The largest animals to hibernate are bears. Their heart rate may slow down from a usual 40-50 beats per minute to 8-12 beats per minute, but their body temperature changes very little, so they are able to wake up quickly. 3

Before you join the 24-hour revolution, take a minute to listen to what your body is trying to tell you. This "round the clock" lifestyle is not what the Great Creator intended for us. In an area of our brains, we have a "body clock" that controls our body's natural rhythms. It tells us when it is the right time to eat, sleep, work or play. It plays an important part in our physical and psychological well-being. It is, in fact, what makes us control many things including our hormones,


temperatures, immune system and activity. It regulates the tempo and brings in all the different instruments on time to make music rather than noise. If we try to ignore our body clocks, or even to switch them off for a while, we not only deprive ourselves of much needed rest, but we also run the risk of seriously damaging our health. Accordingly, we need to have a daily routine. a. Answer the following questions: 1- Which lifestyle does the writer prefer? 2 - Are you for or against the daily routine?

Another group has formed an association with the aim of setting up small projects for poor families, and many good examples of the true Egyptian character that has overcome many challenges over the years showing its true mettle in hard times. Such positive members deserve all respect and I invite every honourable person to follow in their steps. Everyone can help their country in their places. As a student you should study well and seek knowledge everywhere so that you can benefit your country when you grow up. You can play a social role, too. You can form a small society to clean your area and spread awareness among people to keep it clean. You can plant trees on the sides of the roads and streams. You may help with teaching illiterate people to read and write. You can do many useful things, but never be one of those irresponsible figures who burn our dreams of progress and prosperity. a) Answer the following questions: 1 – What has impressed the writer well? 2 – How many examples of good planning does the writer give? 3 – Find in the text words which mean: a) persons b) present

It is felt that it could help increase the national income and open chances of work before youth. In some European countries, tourism has brought in millions of dollars yearly, although they lack the natural and historical attractions we have in Egypt, the land of glorious past civilization. We could, for instance, establish tourist villages for children on the Red Sea. We could teach fishing, swimming, diving and sailing there. Another good idea would be a village near the pyramids or in the New Valley for horse riding, and what about villages for people with health problems like rheumatism? The warm dry climate of Aswan and Helwan would certainly help them get better and this is called curative tourism. Our tourist today wants efficient and friendly service. He would probably prefer to try out samples of our local food than the international meals which are served in some places of specialties. This would be more interesting than having the same things he always eats in his country. It must also be remembered that most tourists nowadays are seldom rich. Many of them are students or hardworking employees. So what is needed is not expensive hotels but clean comfortable places to sleep and eat in at reasonable prices. This, too, would encourage Egyptians to travel more and more around their lovely county having home tourism. a. Answer the following questions: 1 - Why is tourism important?


2 - Why is Egypt supposed to have flourished and successful tourism? 3 - What is curative tourism? b. Choose the correct answer from a, b, c or d: 4 - Home tourism means .............................. . a- people travelling around their own country. b- serving international meals in our restaurants. c- establishing expensive hotels. d- establishing new tourist villages at cheap prices. 5 - To attract more tourists, we should ................................................ . a- try samples of local food. b- serve international meals in our restaurants. c- establish expensive hotels. d- establish new tourist villages provided with efficient and friendly service. 6) Read the following passage, then answer the questions: On a September day in 1991, two Germans were climbing the mountains between Austria and Italy. High up on a mountain pass, they found the body of a man lying on the ice. At that height (3,200 metres) the ice is usually permanent. But 1991 had been an especially warm year. The mountain ice had melted more than usual and so the body had come to the surface. It was lying face downward. The skeleton was in perfect condition, except for a large wound in the head. There was still skin on the bones and the remains of some clothes. The hands were still holding the wooden handle of an axe. On the feet there were simple leather and cloth boots. Nearby, there was a pair of gloves made of tree bark and a holder for arrows. Who was this man? How and when had he died? Everybody had a different answer to these questions. The mountain climbers who had found the body said it seemed thousands of years old. But others thought that it might be before this century. Perhaps it was the body of a soldier who died in world war 1. In fact several World War 1 soldiers had already been found in that area of the mountains. On the other hand, a Swiss woman believed it might be her father. He had died in these mountains 20 years before and his body had never been found. a) Answer the following questions: 1 - Why did this body appear in 1991? 2 – Why did the two Germans go there? 3 – Write words from the passage that mean: a) apart from b) 100 year b) Choose the correct answer: 6 - Before 1991, this body was ( in another place – buried deeply in ice – invisible because of decay – not searched for ). 7 - The underline word ‘permanent’ in the first paragraph means (constant – distant – disastrous – limited).


7.

B) Read the following quotation and answer the questions: “It’s lucky we found you.” a) Who said this to whom? b) Why it was lucky? c) What did the speaker tell the addressed person? C) Find and correct the mistakes in the following: 1 – A dog carried the box of Gulliver and dropped it in the sea. 2 – Gulliver didn’t respond to the people on the ship as he thought they were giants. @ Writing 8) Most of the Egyptian land is not well-exploited.

hard day at work, a white man ordered her to give up her bus seat so he could sit down. Rosa refused and was then arrested for what she had done. When Rosa became an adult, she avoided taking the local bus. She also chose to walk up flights of stairs in buildings instead of taking an elevator marked "Blacks Only". At the age of forty-two, the previous incident happened again when she had to take a bus. A white man ordered her to leave her seat but she refused again.

Everything in this lifestyle is open all hours. You can buy your grocery at midnight, book your holiday on the Internet at 3 am and do business online at dawn. Before you join the 24-hour revolution, take a minute to listen to what your body is trying to tell you. This "round the clock" lifestyle is not what the Great Creator intended for us. In an area of our brains, we have a "body clock" that controls our body's natural rhythms. It tells us when it is the right time to eat, sleep, work or play. It plays an important part in our physical and psychological well-being. It is, in fact, what makes us control many things including our hormones,


temperatures, immune system and activity. It regulates the tempo and brings in all the different instruments on time to make music rather than noise. If we try to ignore our body clocks, or even to switch them off for a while, we not only deprive ourselves of much needed rest, but we also run the risk of seriously damaging our health. Accordingly, we need to have a daily routine. a. Answer the following questions: 1- Which lifestyle does the writer prefer? 2 - Are you for or against the daily routine? Why? 3 - What does "It" in the third paragraph refer to? b. Choose the correct answer from a, b, c or d: 4. A 24-hour society means a society that works ......................... . a - day and night. b - day only. c - night only. d - from 8 am to 2 pm. 5. If you switch off your "body clock", ....... a - you'll benefit your health b - you'll damage your health c – you’ll enjoy your life. d - you'll be successful. 6) Read the following passage, then answer the questions: I cannot isolate myself from the current events that take place in my beloved country nearly every day. I feel proud and flattered when I watch on TV promising young people reflecting on an achievement of their own. Some have put plans to exploit the banks of the Nile in a way that will help economy and beautify them as well. Others speak about inventing cars that run on other fuels rather than petrol. Another group has formed an association with the aim of setting up small projects for poor families, and many good examples of the true Egyptian character that has overcome many challenges over the years showing its true mettle in hard times. Such positive members deserve all respect and I invite every honourable person to follow in their steps. Everyone can help their country in their places. As a student you should study well and seek knowledge everywhere so that you can benefit your country when you grow up. You can play a social role, too. You can form a small society to clean your area and spread awareness among people to keep it clean. You can plant trees on the sides of the roads and streams. You may help with teaching illiterate people to read and write. You can do many useful things, but never be one of those irresponsible figures who burn our dreams of progress and prosperity. a) Answer the following questions: 1 – What has impressed the writer well? 2 – How many examples of good planning does the writer give? 3 – Find in the text words which mean: a) persons b) present


b) Choose the correct answer: 1 – The Egyptians prove that they are great as they . . . . . . . a) are irresponsible b) burn others’ properties c) are capable of reaching their goals. d) clean their areas. 2 – Students may help their country in . . . . . . . . a) one way b) two ways c) three ways d) different ways. 7. The Reader (Gulliver’s Travels) A) Answer the following questions: 1 – Why was the farmer willing to sell Gulliver to the Queen? 2 – What were some of the bad things that happened to Gulliver at the palace? 3 - How did the King of Brobdingnag show his sympathy with Gulliver? What was Gulliver’s reaction? 4 – How far was Captain Wilcocks helpful to Gulliver? B) Read the following quotation and answer the questions: “You’re very lucky because you've escaped to a better place, where people want to grow food rather than make war.” a. Who said this to whom? b. What did the listener think about his own country? c. Do you think the listener had escaped to a better place? Why? C) Find and correct the mistakes in the following: 1 – Glumdalclitch refused to remain in the palace with Gulliver. 2 – Gulliver’s wife wanted him to go on a new journey after spending some time with them. @ Writing 8) Tourism is one of the backbones of our economy. Write a paragraph of about 100 words showing how it could flourish. 9) Translate into Arabic: Poverty and unemployment is a time bomb. Unless we exert extraordinary efforts to uproot them, we’ll suffer much. The government cannot do this alone; we all should give hand to face that problem. Translate into English:

It is felt that it could help increase the national income and open chances of work before youth. In some European countries, tourism has brought in millions of dollars yearly, although they lack the natural and historical attractions we have in Egypt, the land of glorious past civilization. We could, for instance, establish tourist villages for children on the Red Sea. We could teach fishing, swimming, diving and sailing there. Another good idea would be a village near the pyramids or in the New Valley for horse riding, and what about villages for people with health problems like rheumatism? The warm dry climate of Aswan and Helwan would certainly help them get better and this is called curative tourism. Our tourist today wants efficient and friendly service. He would probably prefer to try out samples of our local food than the international meals which are served in some places of specialties. This would be more interesting than having the same things he always eats in his country. It must also be remembered that most tourists nowadays are seldom rich. Many of them are students or hardworking employees. So what is needed is not expensive hotels but clean comfortable places to sleep and eat in at reasonable prices. This, too, would encourage Egyptians to travel more and more around their lovely county having home tourism. a. Answer the following questions: 1 - Why is tourism important?


2 - Why is Egypt supposed to have flourished and successful tourism? 3 - What is curative tourism? b. Choose the correct answer from a, b, c or d: 4 - Home tourism means .............................. . a- people travelling around their own country. b- serving international meals in our restaurants. c- establishing expensive hotels. d- establishing new tourist villages at cheap prices. 5 - To attract more tourists, we should ................................................ . a- try samples of local food. b- serve international meals in our restaurants. c- establish expensive hotels. d- establish new tourist villages provided with efficient and friendly service. 6) Read the following passage, then answer the questions: On a September day in 1991, two Germans were climbing the mountains between Austria and Italy. High up on a mountain pass, they found the body of a man lying on the ice. At that height (3,200 metres) the ice is usually permanent. But 1991 had been an especially warm year. The mountain ice had melted more than usual and so the body had come to the surface. It was lying face downward. The skeleton was in perfect condition, except for a large wound in the head. There was still skin on the bones and the remains of some clothes. The hands were still holding the wooden handle of an axe. On the feet there were simple leather and cloth boots. Nearby, there was a pair of gloves made of tree bark and a holder for arrows. Who was this man? How and when had he died? Everybody had a different answer to these questions. The mountain climbers who had found the body said it seemed thousands of years old. But others thought that it might be before this century. Perhaps it was the body of a soldier who died in world war 1. In fact several World War 1 soldiers had already been found in that area of the mountains. On the other hand, a Swiss woman believed it might be her father. He had died in these mountains 20 years before and his body had never been found. a) Answer the following questions: 1 - Why did this body appear in 1991? 2 – Why did the two Germans go there? 3 – Write words from the passage that mean: a) apart from b) 100 year b) Choose the correct answer: 6 - Before 1991, this body was ( in another place – buried deeply in ice – invisible because of decay – not searched for ). 7 - The underline word ‘permanent’ in the first paragraph means (constant – distant – disastrous – limited).

B) Read the following quotation and answer the questions: “It’s lucky we found you.” a) Who said this to whom? b) Why it was lucky? c) What did the speaker tell the addressed person? C) Find and correct the mistakes in the following: 1 – A dog carried the box of Gulliver and dropped it in the sea. 2 – Gulliver didn’t respond to the people on the ship as he thought they were giants. @ Writing 8) Most of the Egyptian land is not well-exploited. Write a paragraph of about 100 words showing how it could exploited properly. 9) Translate into Arabic: I cannot trust a man saying that he loves Egypt and at the same time burns and destroys public and private properties. Those who hinder the wheel of making progress must be stopped by all means. We all should work hard for the good of country. Translate into English:

hard day at work, a white man ordered her to give up her bus seat so he could sit down. Rosa refused and was then arrested for what she had done.

At the age of forty-two, the previous incident happened again when she had to take a bus. A white man ordered her to leave her seat but she refused again.

COMPREHENSION QUESTIONS IN READER CHAPTER 1 Pre-reading 1. Student’s own ideas. 2. Student’s own ideas. Post-Reading A. 1. He was trained in surgery/medicine. He also studied languages and sailing. 2. No, he had travelled for many years before that. 3. His ship was in a violent storm. The ship was destroyed and Gulliver and some others escaped in a small boat. But that was hit by a wave and they were thrown into the sea. Only Gulliver got ashore. 4. Answers may vary. They were afraid of him because he was so big. They fastened him down so that he couldn’t harm them. They had to use many ropes because their ropes were very small compared to him. 5.
