II/ Reading
I’m interested in sports, especially athletics, and I run seven or eight kilometres every day. I particularly enjoy cross country running, where you have to run across fields, jump over streams and so on. While I’m running I think about all sorts of things, and at the end of a run I’m sometimes surprised to find that I’ve managed to solve a problem that was on my mind.
Next year, I’m going to try the London Marathon. It’s hard race 26 miles, or 42 kilometres-and you have to be tough to finish, but I very much want to do it. I worry a bit about getting too old, and I’d like to prove to myself that I’m still almost as fit as I was twenty years old.
I’m interested in mountaineering as well as running. I’ll never become an except climber, but I know what I’m doing in the mountains. I successfully completed a course in snow and ice climbing when I was younger; and I’ve done a series of easy climbs in the Alps during the last few years. My wife doesn’t share my interest in mountains. She agreed to go climbing with me once, but she found that she felt ill as soon as she got above 1,000 metres.

2. Read the Passage and decide which statements are True (T) or False (F).
In Western countries, electricity, gas, and water are not luxuries but
necessities. Companies now realize that consumers want products that
will not only work effectively, but also save money.
For most North American households, lighting accounts for 10 percent to 15 Percent of the electricity bill. However, this amount can be reduced by replacing an ordinary 100-watt light bulb with an energy-saving bulb. These bulbs use a quarter of the electricity of standard bulbs and last eight times longer. Therefore, consumers can save about US$7 to US$21 per bulb. In Europe, there is a labeling scheme for refrigerators, freezers, washing
machines and tumble dryers. The label tells the consumers how much energy efficiency each model has, compared with other appliances in the same category. Ultimately, these innovations will save money as well as conserve the Earth’s resources.
