VI. Reading Comprehension (120 Marks)
Read the following passage, then answer the questions below:

Newspapers contain news, information and advertising, and are printed on low-
cost paper. They can be daily or weekly, national or local. Newspapers began about five

hundred years ago- the first ones were in Germany. In those days newspapers were
handwritten and used to be passed from person to person. But they were not very
different from today. They had information about wars, economic conditions, social
customs and human-interest features. Newspapers used to be very expensive. Poor
people could not afford them. But in the 1800s printing became cheaper and ordinary
people could afford to buy them. The oldest newspaper still in existence was first
published in Australia in 1703.The oldest newspaper in the Arab world is Al-Ahram,
which started in 1876.
People who write articles for a newspaper are called "journalists". But no
newspaper can afford to send journalists to report on all events, so they buy stories from
news agencies around the world. And no newspaper has room for all the stories that
happen every day. So, the news editor holds meetings where they decide what stories to
publish. They also decide where the photos and advertisements will go.
These days, newspapers are cheap because half the cost is paid for by advertising. A
lot of people used to read a paper every day. But today fewer people are reading than
before. Instead, they go online and get their news from newspaper websites. So, in the
future newspapers may put all the freshest news online and the printed newspapers will
only have articles with opinions and comments.
A- Choose the suitable answer from a, b ,c and d: ( 6x10=60 Marks)
1-A good title for this passage could be.....................
a-newspapers b-keeping up with the news
c-newspaper websites d- surfing the net

b-good shows for entertaining people.
c-a product that is needed in a society
d-Photos and pictures shown on social programmes.
3- The word which in (line 10) refers to ..............................
a-newspaper in Australia b-journalists
c-newspaper websites d-Al-Ahram

a-reading newspapers b-newspaper is cheaper nowadays.
c-latest news from newspaper websites. d-the future of newspapers.

VII. Summary Making (60 Marks )

Read the following passage, then do as required:
Many students find that preparing for an individual class for 60-90 minutes per day,
five or six days per week, will leave them well prepared at exam time. For some students,
it does not work. That is why practitioners would recommend that students should
not cram at the last second. All-nighters simply don't work for most people, and students
experience declining returns on their efforts when they attempt to study for four and five
hours straight. They would also recommend that students should keep their ears open
in class. Their teachers will sometimes tell them about the exam study strategies.
They should be in class every day to receive such help. This is particularly true as tests
and final exams approach. They insist that students review their class notes on a
regular basis.
In a paragraph of FOUR sentences ONLY, summarize and paraphrase the previous
passage in an answer to the following question:

What are the best strategies to get ready for the exams?
Students shouldn’t study at last seconds. Students should be alert in class.
They need their teachers’ help and support. Using class notes regularly helps them
do well in the exams.

VI- Reading Comprehension (120 Marks)
Read the following passage, then answer the questions below:
The Road to success is not straight; there is a curve called failure, a loop called confusion,
speed bumps called friends, caution lights called family, and you will have flats called jobs. But,
if you have a spare called determination, an engine called perseverance, insurance called faith,
and a driver called God, you will make it to a place called success!
In spite of all our planning and preparation, unexpected challenges are certain to arise. The
bumps in the road are unavoidable, but you’ll never get to your destination if you aren’t willing
to drive over them. The difference between a disaster and triumph lies in whether or not you’re

prepared and willing to weather the storm. If you’re ready, those bumps will become stepping-
stones.

The key thing to realize is that working harder is the same as working smarter. How do you
work smarter? You just need to have the right skills. People want improved circumstances and
better life without an improved self. They want victory without paying the price or making
efforts. It really cannot happen without the other. Any improvements that have not been
generated by improving yourself are superficial and short-lived. If you want to have a better
future, you have to change yourself. Stop worrying about the various challenges that will come
your way. Just believe in yourself and use them as stepping-stones.
“Success” is getting whatever you want out of life without violating the rights of others.” It is
not an accident. Success is the result of our attitude and our attitude is a choice. Hence success
is a matter of choice and not chance. Today success represents a holistic and positive attitude to
life. Success can be measured from two standpoints — the external and the internal. Externally
it is the measure of a job well done and recognition. Internally it is the feeling of achievement
and wholeness derived from the completion of a task or fulfilment of desire.
A- Choose the suitable answer from a, b ,c and d: ( 6x10=60 Marks)
1- The best title of the text could be:
a- How to pave your way to Success. b- How to measure Success.
c- The qualities of a successful person. d- Success is a matter of chance.
2- The synonym of ‘victory’ as given in paragraph 3 is __________.
a- planning b- preparation c- triumph d- challenges
3- The word “them” in (line 10) refers to ..............................
a- bumps b- challenges c- stones d- preparations
4-The main idea for the third paragraph is ..........................
a- Methods to be smarter.
b- Methods of achieving success and building a better future.
c- The results of success.
d- The reasons of Success.

5- Qualities such as determination, perseverance, faith, etc. lead one to a place called ......
a- attitude b- chance c-recognition d- success
6- All the following statements are true Except:
a- If one wants to have a better future, you have to change yourself.
b- Working harder is the same as working smarter.
c- Hard work is the only key to success.
d- Working smarter isn’t the only way to achieve your goal.

B) Answer the following questions : (3x10=30Marks)
1. What is the difference between disaster and triumph?
The difference between a disaster and triumph lies in whether or not you’re prepared and
willing to weather the storm. If you’re ready, those bumps will become stepping-stones.
2. Describe two ways to measure success.
Success can be measured from two standpoints — the external and the internal.
(Externally it is the measure of a job well done and recognition. Internally it the feeling of
achievement and wholeness derived from the completion of a task or fulfillment of desire.)

Reading Comprehension ( 80 marks )
A. Read the following passage carefully, then answer the questions below:
Floods are second only to fire as the most common of all natural disasters. They occur almost
everywhere in the world, resulting in widespread damage and even death. Consequently,
scientists have long tried to perfect their ability to predict floods. So far, the best that scientists
can do is to recognize the potential for flooding in certain conditions. There are a number of
conditions, from deep snow on the ground to human error, that cause flooding.
When deep snow melts, it creates a large amount of water. Although deep snow alone rarely
causes floods, when it occurs together with heavy rain and sudden warmer weather it can lead to
serious flooding. If there is a fast snow melt on top of frozen or very wet ground, flooding is more
likely to occur than when the ground is not frozen. Frozen ground or ground that is very wet and
already saturated with water cannot absorb the additional water created by the melting snow.
Melting snow also contributes to high water levels in rivers and streams. Whenever rivers are
already at their full capacity of water, heavy rains will result in the rivers overflowing and
flooding the surrounding land.
Rivers that are covered in ice can also lead to flooding. When ice begins to melt, the surface of
the ice cracks and breaks into large pieces. These pieces of ice move and float down the river.
They can form a dam in the river, causing the water behind the dam to rise and flood the land
upstream. If the dam breaks suddenly, then the large amount of water held behind the dam can
flood the areas downstream too.
Unleashed dam water can travel tens of kilometers, cover the ground in meters of mud and
debris, and drown and crush every thing and creature in their path. Although scientists cannot
always predict exactly when floods will occur, they do know a great deal about when floods are
likely, or probably, going to occur. Deep snow, ice-covered rivers, and weak dams are all strong
conditions for potential flooding. Hopefully, this knowledge of why floods happen can help us
reduce the damage they cause.
A. From a, b and c, choose the correct answer: (6 X 10 = 60 Marks)
27)The best title for the passage is:
a. Scientific Researches b. Melting Snow c. Natural Disasters d. Causes of Flood
28)The underlined word “unleashed” in paragraph 4 means:
a. released b. enclosed c. astonished d. alarmed

a. levels b. streams c. floods d. rivers
30)The most common natural disaster is:
a. storms b. snow c. fire d. floods
31)The following statements are TRUE except:
a. Deep snow with heavy rains and sudden warm temperature can cause flooding.
b. Saturated ground contributes to flooding because the ground cannot absorb water.
c. Saturated ground contributes to flooding because the ground is too hard, so the water runs off.
d. Large amount of water held behind dams can flood areas downstream.

32)The writer’s main purpose of writing this passage is to:
a. inform the readers of what causes floods to help us reduce future damage.
b. suggest solutions to resist natural disasters.
c. compare floods with other natural disasters.
d. persuade the readers that rivers are not a real cause of floods.

B- Productive Questions. Answer the following questions? ( 2 X 10 = 20 marks)
33)How can ice-covered rivers cause flooding?
When ice begins to melt, the surface of the ice cracks and breaks into large pieces. These
pieces of ice move and float down the river.
34)When snow melts, it results in:
it creates a large amount of water. Although deep snow alone rarely causes floods, when it
occurs together with heavy rain and sudden warmer weather it can lead to serious
flooding.

VII. Summary Making (60 Marks)

Read the following passage, then do as required:
Indoor air pollution is almost always worse than outside pollution. This is true even in buildings
that are close to factories that produce chemicals. Better ventilation – a system for moving fresh
air – can cut indoor pollution to a safe level, but lack of ventilation is seldom the main cause of
the problem. Experts have found that buildings create their own pollution. Imagine a typical
home. The people who live there burn oil, wood, or gas for cooking and heating. They use
products made of plastic; these products give off chemicals that we can’t see but that we do
breathe in. And in many areas, the ground under the building might send a dangerous gas into
the home. The people in the house are breathing in a “chemical soup”.
In FOUR sentences, summarize and paraphrase the previous passage in an answer to the
following question: (4X15=60 Marks) What are the things that cause indoor pollution?
Lack of ventilation is one of the reasons of indoor pollution. Also, people inside the
house burn oil, wood, or gas for cooking cause pollution. Plastic products produce
unseen dangerous chemicals and gases that we breathe.
