A/ READING COMPREHENSION
I/ In the last 100 years , technology has completely changed the way we live . At the touch of a button 
, we can look up almost anything we need to know on the Internet. We have electricity , aeroplanes, 
television nad we have ever been to the moon. So what sort of inventions will there be in the 21st 
century ? Indeed, is there anything important still left to invent ? 
 It seems that scientists all over the world are looking into nanotechnology with a great deal of 
interest. This is the science of building small machines-and when we say small, we mean very small. 
To give you an idea of the size scientists are talking about , these machines would be about, a million 
billion times smaller that the smallest bit of dust . 
 Nanotechnology will bring about enormous changes . Doctors, for example, will be able to cure 
any illness. The environment will be improved because it will be possible to take the polluted air we 
breathe and make it clean again. But perhaps the most exciting thought of all is that we won’t have to 
wait a thousand years for nanotechnology – many people believe there is a good chance it will come in 
our life time.

III/ TELEVISION AND CHILDREN : 
 Television has changed the way people live for thirty years. It influences nearly every aspect of 
modern life: how people use their leisure time, how news is reported, how information is learned, and 
how people think and feel. Children are particular susceptible to the effects of television, because their 
minds are growing and learning much faster than those of adults. However, social scientists, teachers 
and parents are concerned about the impact of television on children. They feel television is one factor 
that causes declining mathematics and reading scores among school children. Because of the excessive 
time spent watching television, children are spending less time reading and thinking independently.
