Start here 1 Work in groups. Which way does the water flow in this
system? Draw arrows to show the direction of the flow.

The main parts or this system are water

pipes, a solar water panel, a water tank,
an inlet, a valve and a shower head. The
tank is above the solar panel.
Cold water enters the system through
the inlet. then flows into the tank.
F r o m e , the water flows into the
solar panel.
The Sun heats the water in the panel.
The hot water rises and flows from the
panel into the tank. In the tank, hot
water stays at the top and cold water
sinks to the bottom.
When you open the valve, hot
water

How does the solar power system work? The panel converts the Sun's energy into a DC
electric current. The current flows to the controller. Then it can flow from the
controller to the lamps. Or it can flow from the controller into the battery. The
battery stores the electricity. The current can flow from the battery into the lamps
through the controller.
If the Sun shines, the DC current can flow from the panel. through the controller
and into the lamps. If the Sun doesn't shine, the current can flow from the battery,
through the controller and into the lamps. If the lamps are off, the current can flow
from the panel, through the controller, and into the battery.
The controller controls the flow of the current. If the battery is full, the controller
stops the flow from the panel into the battery. If the battery is empty, the controller stops
the flow from the battery into the lamps.

Language the Sun shine -s the current flows from the panel.
the Sun does not/doesn’t shine the current flows from the
battery.

Bridge of the Future:

Europe-Africa Bridge
RadioTech presenter Tom Burns interviews engineer Galal Hamdy.

Tom: What project are you working on now?

Galal: We're designing the world's longest bridge.
Tom: Where will it be?
Galal: Between Morocco and Spain. It'll connect
Europe
with Africa.
Tom: What are the specifications of the bridge?
Galal: It will be almost 15 km long. In our design, the bridge
will have two spans. Each span will be 4800 m long.
Tom: That's a very long span. How will that be possible?
Galal: The bridge will have three steel pylons, on concrete
piers. The pylons will be 1000 m high. The deck will
be very light and strong. It'll be made of fibreglass.
Tom: Many engineers think you won't be able to build this
bridge.
Galal: I don't agree. I think we'll complete it around 2030.

Speaking S Work in pairs. Ask and answer questions about the specifications of the
bridge.
