indicate the correct answer to each of the questions :
Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up. Really, the
world’s natural resources are limited. Nobody knows exactly how much fuel is left. However,
we should also use them economically and try to find out alternative sources of power.
According to some experts, we have to start conserving coal, oil and gas before it is too late ;
and nuclear power is the only alternative.
However, many people do not approve of using nuclear power because it is dangerous.
What would happen if there were a serious nuclear accident ? Radioactivity causes cancer and
may badly affect the future generations.
The most effective thing is that we should use natural resources as economical as possible.

A UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) is any object flying in the sky which cannot be
identified by the person who sees it. Sometimes the object is investigated. If people can still
not figure out what the object is after an investigation, it is called a UFO. If they figure out
what the object is, it can no longer be called a UFO because it has been identified.
Even though UFOs can be anything, people often use the word UFO when they are
talking about alien spacecraft. Flying saucer is another word that is often used to describe an
unidentified flying object.
Studies estimate that 50%-90% of all reported UFO sightings are identified later.
Usually 10%-20% are never identified. Studies also show that very few UFO sightings are
hoaxes (people trying to trick other people). Most UFOs are actually natural or man-made
objects that looked strange. 80%-90% UFOs are identified as one of three different things:
astronomical causes (for example: planets, stars, or meteors, aircraft, balloons). 10%-20% of
UFOs are other causes (such as birds, clouds, mirages, searchlights, etc.)
Question 29: Another word used to describe a UFO is _________.
A. spacecraft B. astronaut C. flying saucer D. cooking oil
Question 30: How many percents of all reported UFO sightings are not identified?
A. 10%-20% B. 20%-30% C. 30%-50% D. 80%-90%

Question 32: 5. Which of the following sentences is NOT true?
