Second Term English Examination
Level: 2AS Scientific stream Time: 2hours
TEXT
Pollution is neither a local nor a national issue. Air and water pollution cross the borders of countries so often and in such large quantities that it has become an international problem. This is the case of acid rain, which travels for hundreds or thousands of kilometres in the air to kill forests , aquatic life and destroy buildings in countries far from the country which has produced it.
To understand what acid rain is and how it travels long distances , imagine a factory in Britain.The factory needs energy for its manufacturing, so it burns oil and coal. These fuels have a high Sulphur (S)******* which turns into Sulphur Dioxide(SO) after the burning of oil or coal. The Sulphur Dioxide goes up from the factory chimney into the air.
Reading comprehension: (8pts) Read the text carefully then answer the questions.
Exercise Onehttp://www.dzbatna.com/images/smilies/frown.gif4pts) Answer the following questions
1- Why has pollution become an international problem?
2- How does air pollution, like acid rain, travel very long distances?
3- What kills forests and aquatic life?
4- Why do factories burn oil or coal?
Exercise Two: (2pts) Are these statements ''true '' or ''false''?
1-Acid rain is composed of pure water.
2-Factories need oil or coal.
3-SO is the result of burning oil or coal.
4- Pollution is a big problem.
Exercise Three: (2pts)
