Dear Paula,
Hello Paula, how are you? It’s been a month since I last heard from you. Well I just wanted to tell
you that I was in a hospital last week. According to the doctor I was infected by dengue fever. At
first, I felt my body became weak then fainted when was studying in the classroom. Then, I was
taken to the hospital because of the high fever.
At the hospital, I was brought into the emergency unit. The doctor immediately gave some
treatments. Finally, I had to stay there for one week. Every day the doctor kept me on a drip. At the
seventh day, my condition was getting better. After the final check, the doctor gave me permission to
go home. Now, I’m okay and because of my illness, I am now more careful about keeping in my
house clean especially my room, I don’t want to get the same illness again. Ok, think that’s all from
me, write to me soon ok?
Regards
Nadira

Explanation
Rain is the primary source of fresh water for most areas of the world, providing suitable conditions
for diverse ecosystem, as well as water for hydroelectric power plants and crop immigration.
The phenomenon of the rain is actually a water circle. The concept of the water cycle involves the
sun heating the Earth’s surface water and causing the surface water to evaporate. The water vapor
rises into the Earth’s atmosphere.
The water in the atmosphere cools and condenses into liquid droplets. The droplets grow until they
are heavy and fall to the Earth as precipitation which can be in the form of rain or snow.
However, not all rain reaches the surface. Some evaporates while failing through dry air. This is
called virga, a phenomenon which is often seen in hot, dry desert regions.
Questions:
1. What is the primary source of fresh water?
Answer: Rain.
2. What is the terminology to describe the rain process?
Answer: Water cycle.
3. What is the first step of water cycle?
Answer: Evaporation.
4. What is Virga?
Answer: Rain that evaporates before it reach ground.
5. What is precipitation?
Answer: The failing of water from the sky.
The following text is for number 1-5!
Human body is made up of countless millions of cells. Food is needed to build up new cells and
replace the worn out cells. However, the food that we take must be changed into substance that can be
carried in the blood to the places where they are needed, this process is called digestion.
The first digestive process takes places in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into small
pieces by the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by glands in the mouth. Saliva contains
digestive juice which moisten the food, so it can be swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passage) into the stomach. Here,
the food is mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in the stomach for several hours. Then the food
enters the small intestine. All the time the muscular walls of the intestine are squeezing, mixed and
moving the food onwards.
In a few hours, the food changes into acids. There are soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic
branch projections from the intestine walls) walls and passed into the bloodstream.

Answer: b

a. a good process of digestive system will help our body becoming healthier.
b. no one concerned with the process of digestive system for their health.

Answer: a
The following text is for number 6-10!
Acid rain is rain that is highly acidic because of sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, and other air
pollutants dissolved in it. Normal rain is slightly acidic, with a pH of 6. Acid rain may have a pH value
as low as 2.8.
Acid rain can severely damage both plant and animal life. Certain lakes, for example, have lost all
fish and plant life because of acid rain.
Acid rain comes from sulfur in coal and oil. When they burn, they make sulfur dioxide (SO₂). Most
sulfur leaves factory chimneys as the gaseous sulfur dioxide (SO₂) and most nitrogen oxides (NO ᴏr
NO₂), both of which are gasses. The gasses may be dry deposited-absorbed directly by the land, by
lakes or by the surface vegetation. If they are in the atmosphere for anytime, the glasses will oxidize
(gain an oxygen atom) and go into solution as acids. Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) and the nitrogen oxides
will become nitric acid (HNO₃). The acids usually dissolve in cloud droplets and may travel great
distances before being precipitated as acid rain. Catalysts such as hydrogen peroxide, ozone, and
ammonium help promote the formation of acid in clouds. More ammonium (NH₄) can be formed
when some of the acids are partially neutralized by airborne ammonia (NH₃). Acidification increases
with the number of active hydrogen (H⁺) ions dissolved in acid. Hydrocarbons emitted by, for
example, car exhaust will react in sunlight with nitrogen oxides to produce ozone. Although it is
invaluable in the atmosphere, low-level ozone causes respiratory problems and also hastens the
formation of acid rain. When acid rain falls on the ground it dissolves and liberates heavy metals and
aluminum (Al). When it is washes into lakes, aluminum irritates the outer surfaces of many fish. As
acid rain falls or drains into the lake the pH of the lake falls. Forests suffer the effect of acid rain
through damage to leaves, through the loss of vital nutrients, and through the increased amounts of
toxic metals liberated by acid, which damage roots and soil microorganisms.

Unwell
Song by: Rob Thomas
All day (42)…. at the celling
Making friends with shadows on my wall
All night hearing voice telling me

Straight Through The Heart
Song by: Dio
Hanging (49)…. the cobwebs in your mind
It looks like a long, long way to fall
No one ever told me life was kind
I guess I never heard it, never heard it all
Living in a world of make believe
I can hide (50)…. what’s real
But wearing your emotions on your sleeve
And they all know what you (51)….
And here it comes again
Straight through the heart
Straight through the heart
Oh, never (52)…. a secret with your eyes
It’s the eyes that let you down
Tell a little truth (53)…. many lies
It’s the only way I’ve found
Shout to the wind
How can you hurt me this way
Oh once it begins
It looks like it’s coming to stay

Down to Earth
Song by: Peter Gabriel
[Verse 1]
Did you (54)…. that your feet had been bound
By what gravity brings (55)…. the ground?
Did you feel you were tricked
By the future you picked?
Well, come on down
All those rules don’t apply
When you’re high in the sky
So, come on down
Come on down
[Chorus}
We’re coming down to the ground
There’s no better place to go
We’ve got snow up on the mountains
We’ve got rivers down below
We’re coming down to the ground
We hear the birds sing in the trees
And the land will be looked after
We send the seed out in the breeze
[Verse 2]
Did you think you’d escaped from routine
By charging the script and the scene?
(56)…. all you made of it
You’re always afraid
Of the change
You’ve got a lot on your chest
Well, you can come as my guest
(57)…., come on down
Come on down
[Bridge}
Like the fish (58)…. the ocean
We felt at home in the sea
We learned to live off the good land
Learned to climb up a tree
Then we got up on two legs
But we wanted to fly
When we messed up our homeland
We set sail for the sky
[Outro]
We’re coming down
Coming down to Earth
Like babies at birth
Coming down to Earth
We’re gonna find new priorities
These are extraordinary qualities
