GRADE 10 – UNIT ONE – READING COMPREHENSION
- Read the following passage carefully, then answer the questions that follow:
How do you remember the way to your friend's house? Why do your eyes blink
without you ever thinking about it? Your brain is in charge of these things. In fact, your
brain is the boss of your body. It runs and controls just about everything you do, even
when you're asleep. Not bad for something that looks like a big gray wrinkly sponge.
A brain has many different parts that work together, for example, the Cerebrum,
Brain Stem, Pituitary Gland and Hypothalamus. The biggest part of the brain is the
cerebrum. The cerebrum is the thinking part of the brain and it controls your voluntary
muscles — the ones that move when you want them to. So you need your cerebrum to
dance or kick a soccer ball. You need your cerebrum to solve math problems, and draw a
picture. Your memory lives in the cerebrum — both short-term memory and long-term
memory. The cerebrum has two halves. Scientists think that the right half helps you think
about abstract things like music, colours, and shapes. The left half is more analytical, helping
you with math, logic, and speech.
Another important part of the brain is the cerebellum which is a lot smaller than the
cerebrum. It controls balance, movement, and coordination, how your muscles work
together. Because of your cerebellum, you can stand upright, keep your balance, and move
around. Think about a surfer riding the waves on his board. He needs his cerebellum to stand
and control his movement. The brain stem is in charge of all the functions that your body
needs to stay alive, like breathing air, digesting food, and circulating blood. The pituitary
gland is very small. Its job is to produce and release hormones into your body. The
hypothalamus is like your brain's inner thermostat. The hypothalamus knows what
temperature your body should be. If your body is too hot, the hypothalamus tells it to sweat.
If you're too cold, the hypothalamus gets you shivering.
From a, b , c and d, choose the correct answer:
1- The best title for this passage is:
a. Parts of the Body b. Parts of the Brain
c. Abstract Knowledge d. The Pituitary Gland
2- The underlined word “blink” in the 1 s t paragraph means:
a. shut and open
b. succeed and fail
c. run and stop
d. start and finish
3- The underlined word “it” in the 2 nd paragraph refers to:
a. the brain stem
b. the brain
c. the hypothalamus
d. the cerebrum
4- According to the 3 r d paragraph, the pituitary gland:
a. controls everything.
b. keeps your body on low temperatures.
c. produces and releases hormones into your body.
d. helps you remember the way to your friend's house.
5- All the following sentences are TRUE EXCEPT:
a. We blink without thinking about it.
b. We need the cerebellum to solve problems and draw pictures.
c. We need cerebellum to stand and control our movement and stand straight.
d. We need the hypothalamus to allow our bodies to sweat whenever we feel hot.
6- The writer’s purpose in writing this text is:
a. To analyze different parts of the brain and their functions.
b. To tell us how the brain works.
c. To explain how to keep fit and healthy.
d. To state the benefits of sleeping.

GRADE 10 – UNIT ONE – SUMMARY MAKING
- Read the following passage, then do as required:
Caves were" homes" which served only as temporary shelters. They protected humans
from the sun, rain and wild animals which roamed forests. Men of that time were called
“Cavemen”. Cavemen usually lived in small groups and life was very difficult. They had
to move from place to place in search for food. They would catch fish or pick berries and
wild fruit. When a particular place where they stayed ran out of food supply, they would
leave to find another suitable spot. Their tools and weapons, which were made of stones,
were simple and rough. Cavemen ate their food raw until they learned how to make a fire.
For clothing, they used only barks of trees or skins of animals they had hunted to cover
their bodies.
In FOUR sentences, summarize and paraphrase the previous passage in answer to the following question:
How was the lifestyle of Cavemen?

GRADE 10 – UNIT TWO – READING COMPREHENSION
- Read the following passage carefully, then answer the questions that follow:
Persuasion is the art of convincing someone to agree with your point of view. According
to the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle, there are three basic tools of persuasion: ethos,
pathos, and logos.
Ethos is a speaker’s way of convincing the audience that he/she is a credible source. An
audience will consider a speaker credible if he/she seems trustworthy, reliable, and sincere.
This can be done in many ways. For example, a speaker can develop ethos by explaining how
much experience or education he/she has in the field. After all, you would consult a dentist
not a firefighter for a tooth ache. A speaker can also create ethos by convincing the audience
that he/she is a good person who has their best interests at heart. If an audience cannot trust
you, you will not be able to persuade them.
Pathos is a speaker’s way of connecting with an audience’s emotions. For example, a
speaker who is trying to convince an audience to vote for him might say that he alone can
save the country. These words are intended to fill the audience with fear, thus making them
want to vote for him. Similarly, a charity organisation that helps animals might show an
audience pictures of injured dogs and cats. These images are intended to fill the viewers with
pity, which will make them donate money.
Logos is the use of facts, information, statistics, or other evidence to make your argument
more convincing. An audience will be more likely to believe you if you have data to back up
your claims. For example, a commercial for soap might tell you that laboratory tests have
shown that their soap kills all 7,000,000 of the bacteria living on your hands right now. This
piece of information might make you more likely to buy their brand of soap. Presenting this
evidence is much more convincing than simply saying “our soap is the best!” Use of logos can
also increase a speaker’s ethos; the more facts a speaker includes in his argument, the more
likely you are to think that he/she is educated and trustworthy.
From a, b, c and d choose the correct answer:
1- The best title for the passage is:
a- Writing Speeches
b- Convincing Others
c- Wise Aristotle
d- Speaking Fluently
2- The underlined word "credible" in the 2nd paragraph is closest in meaning to:
a- boring
b- terrible
c- believable
d- clever
3- What does the underlined word "them" in the 3rd paragraph refer to?
a- images
b- animals
c- viewers
d- words
4- What can be understood from the 1st paragraph?
a- The art of convincing others is very old.
b- Only Greeks used persuasion in their speeches.
c- By time people developed persuasion into three different tools.
d- Convincing and persuading others is used among old men only.
5- According to the 2nd paragraph, one should mention his experience and education to:
a- get a new certificate.
b- show off and annoy others.
c- gain the audience’s trust.
d- compare his/her work to others
6- What is the purpose of the writer?
a- To inform readers about ancient philosophers.
b- To analyze Aristotle’s writing and find the wisdom.
c- To convince others to use the persuasion style.
d- To explain and inform the audience of the tools of persuasion.

7- How does the pathos tool work?

GRADE 10 – UNIT TWO – SUMMARY MAKING
- Read the following passage, then do as required:
There are people who have much more than what they need to live while others have
barely enough to survive. One cannot make them rich but can provide them with essentials.

decent life. Good education, insures a long-lasting improvement in their lives. Building
relationships among them helps them regaining their self-confidence and self-esteem also
makes them hold their own responsibility. Moreover, treating them well and enrolling them
in the bigger society make them work harder to gain the society’s trust and respect.
In FOUR sentences, summarize and paraphrase the previous passage in answer

GRADE 10 – UNIT THREE – READING COMPREHENSION
Read the following passage carefully, then answer the questions below:
Most of the serious health problems in modern America can be linked to poor diet.
Many people regularly consume foods high in sodium, sugar, and saturated fats Which not
only increase their chances of obesity, but also increase their risks of developing heart
disease and diabetes. There are many reasons for having poor diet. Some people do so
knowingly. There is also a significant portion of the population that remains undereducated
about proper nutrition. What is more, individuals who live in food desert-areas in low-
income neighbourhoods may not even have the opportunity to obtain nutritious food.
Food deserts are located in high-poverty areas, such as rural areas or densely
populated, low-income urban centres away from modern neighbourhoods. Food deserts
most often develop when major supermarket chains either relocate out of these areas or
simply refrain from building stores there. This means that those who live in high-poverty
areas often also live miles away from the fresh meats, dairy products, and fresh fruits
available at supermarkets. Residents of these areas who do not have cars are thus forced to
travel long distances on public transportation to do their grocery shopping. They are limited
to the food available at local convenience stores which sell packaged and processed foods
that offer little nutritional value.
Fast food restaurants are extremely concentrated in low-income areas. Because
individuals who live in food deserts tend to get their meals from fast food restaurants or
convenience stores, they often suffer from a variety of health issues. Research has found
that individuals who live in low-income neighbourhoods are much more likely to develop
problems with obesity, diabetes, and hypertension than those who live in more affluent
neighbourhoods.
A solution to the problem of food deserts seems obvious: more supermarkets should
be built in low-income neighbourhoods. Of course, it is difficult to lure supermarket chains
into poor areas because poorer people have less money to spend on food and supermarket
chains do not consider them to be attractive customers. One way that the government can
help to settle this issue is by offering tax breaks or other incentives for supermarkets in low-
income areas. Moreover, Community gardens and farmers’ markets should offer local
initiatives to solve the problem.
From a, b , c and d choose the most correct answer:
1. The main idea of paragraph (1) is:
a. The risks of developing heart disease and diabetes
b. The bad effects of obesity on the American people.
c. The solutions of the food deserts problem.
d. The reasons of having poor diet in America
2. The underlined word "affluent" in paragraph 3 means:
a. low
b. updated
c. wealthy
d. distant
3. What does the underlined word "their" in paragraph 2 refer to?
a. residents
b. products
c. distances
d. supermarkets
4. If supermarkets opened locations in more low-income areas,:
a. members of low-income households would not go there
b. the supermarkets would be unable to compete with the fast-food chains.
c. the convenience stores in the area would stop their business.
d. the health of low-income residents would be more likely to improve
5. According to the passage, all the following statements are TRUE except:
a. People who live in high-poverty areas often live miles away from the fresh food.
b. Major supermarket chains refrain from building stores in low-income areas.
c. Convenience stores sell packaged and processed foods.
d. Fast food restaurants are concentrated in high-income areas.
6. The writer's purpose in writing this text is to:
a. inform us about supermarkets’ contributions to obesity in America.
b. warn us about the dangers of fast food.
c. highlight the problem of food deserts and its solutions.
d. encourage readers to live in low-income areas.

Some people say that laughter is the best medicine. Scientists are beginning to agree
with this. They are studying laughter seriously and are finding that it is gainful for us.
Every minute we laugh is the same as forty-five minutes of relaxation. Many doctors
around the world believe that laughter helps us get better when we are sick. Laughter helps
in reducing stress hormones and blood pressure, as well as increasing blood flow and
oxygenation to the cells and organs. Laughter has also been shown to increase memory,
intelligence, and creativity.

GRADE 10 – UNIT FOUR – READING COMPREHENSION
Read the following passage carefully, then answer the questions below:
Normal life never stays normal for long simply because it is full of stress. Stress is
often described as a feeling of being overloaded, wound-up, tense and nervous. We all
experience stress at times. It can sometimes be positive and help to motivate us to get a
task finished, or perform well. But stress can also be harmful if we become over-stressed
and it interferes with our ability to get on with our normal life for too long.
When we face a stressful event, our bodies respond by activating the nervous
system and releasing hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol from the adrenal glands.
These hormones cause physical changes in the body which help us react quickly and
effectively to get through the stressful situation. They prepare our bodies to stay and fight
or flee the situation. This is sometimes called the ‘fight or flight’ response. The hormones
increase our heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, metabolism and muscle tension.
While these changes help people try to meet the challenges and effects of the
stressful situations, they can cause negative physical or psychological symptoms if stress is
not controlled. These symptoms can include headaches, other aches and pains, anxiety,
anger, depression, high blood pressure, heart diseases, lack of confidence and many other
symptoms.
Learning to handle stress in healthy ways is very important. Fortunately, it is easy to
learn simple techniques. These include recognizing the causes of stress (some stress is
natural), taking steps to deal with the problem, tackling the symptoms and most
importantly, asking for help from a friend or a professional. The worst thing for stress is
trying to take control over uncontrollable things. Because when we fail — since it’s beyond
our control — we only get more stressed out and feel helpless. Doing what’s within our
power moves us forward and is empowering and energizing. In addition to that, having
certain routines throughout the day helps us to relax, better enjoy what we have in our
lives and manage the harmful effects of stress. These routines include regular times for
exercise and relaxation, and planning ahead to do certain jobs on specific days of the
week.
A) From a, b, c and d, choose the correct answer:
1-What is the best title for this passage?
a. The Changes of Stress

c. Body Reactions to Stress
d. The Symptoms and Solutions of Stress

3-The underlined word “they” in the 3 r d paragraph refers to:
a. effects
b. changes
c. challenges
d. situations
4-According to paragraph 2, what is the effect of stress on our bodies?
a. It decreases cortisol in our bodies.
b. It makes our bodies release hormones.
c. It helps us react slowly and effectively.
d. It raises our heart beat and lowers blood pressure.
5-Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
a. The nervous system is activated in stressful events.
b. Adrenaline lowers metabolism in stressful situations.

GRADE 10 – UNIT FIVE – READING COMPREHENSION
- Read the following passage carefully, then answer the questions that follow:
It was one of those terribly hot days in Baltimore. We always had those for a month
between July and August. That day was particularly hotter than I could remember it had
ever been. The weatherman on the radio said the temperature would reach 104°!
Needless to say, it was too hot to do anything outside. But it was also scorching in
our apartment. This was 1962, and I would not live in a place with an air conditioner till ten
years later. So, my brother and I decided to leave the apartment to go to a cooler place. I
suggested the drug store where I could get a soda or any kind of juice. But he reminded me
that the shopkeeper in the drug store would not let you sit there all day. My brother instead
suggested watching a movie. It was a brilliant plan.
Movie theatres were one of the few places where you could sit in for a long and, more
importantly, sit in air conditioning. In those days, you could buy one ticket and sit through
both movies of a double feature. Then, the theatre would show the same two movies again
after that. If you wanted to, you could sit through them twice. Most people did not do that,
but the manager at our theatre, Mr. Bellow, did not mind if you did. That particular day, my
brother and I sat through both movies twice, trying to escape the heat. We sat and watched
The Music Man, followed by The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. We’d already seen the
second movie once before. It had shown at the theatre since January, because Mr. Bellow
loved anything with John Wayne in it. Watching it again was better than going outside, and
at least The Music Man was new to us. We left the theatre around 8 PM, just before the
evening shows began. We returned the next day and saw the same two movies again, twice
more. And we did it the next day too.
Finally, on the fourth day, the heat wave broke. Still, to this day I can sing half the
songs in The Music Man and quote half of John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart’s dialogue from
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance! Those memories are some of the few I have of the heat
wave of 1962.
A. Choose the correct answer from a, b, c, and d:
1- What is the main idea of the 3rd paragraph?
a. Why movie theatres were important during the hot days.
b. What kind of movies they watched.
c. The effects of childhood memories.
d. The importance of drug stores.
2- The OPPOSITE of the underlined word “scorching” in the 2nd paragraph is:
a- falling
b- observing
c- dropping
d- freezing
3- The underlined word “it” in the 3rd paragraph refers to:
a. the heat
b. the theatre
c. the second movie
d. that particular day
4- Why wasn’t the idea that the writer first suggested nice?
a. Because the drug store didn’t let children enter drug stores.
b. Because there was no air conditioner in the drug store.
c. Because the drug store wouldn’t let people stay there for a long time.
d. Because they wanted to watch a movie.
5- All the following statements are TRUE, EXCEPT:
a. They boys watched the movies more than once.
b. They didn’t want to stay home.
c. The weather was too hot during that day.
d. The manager didn’t like John Wayne’s movies.
6- The purpose of the writer in writing the passage is to:

GRADE 10 – UNIT FIVE – SUMMARY MAKING
- Read the following passage, then do as required:
Many students find that preparing for each individual class for 60-90 minutes per day will
leave them well prepared for the real exam. Experts think that students should not cram at
the last second. They would 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. They insist that students review their
class notes on a regular basis. If a student follows these remarks well, he or she will
definitely get many A’s in his or her exams.

VI- READING COMPREHENSION: (80 Marks)
Read the following passage carefully, then answer the questions below:
If you’re feeling down or mentally tired, your phone – which is probably always on
and in your hand – might be the problem. A new study has linked feelings of worry, anger,
and depression with growing use of smartphones and other devices.
As smart as phones may be these days, teens basically don’t know when to stop. To
protect your mental health, experts say you must develop ways of diminishing their
usage. Cleverly, that involves limiting notifications, deleting some applications, or simply
turning smartphones off.
Jean Twenge, psychology professor at San Diego State University, has written a lot
on young people and mental health. She recently released a study that shows a link
between the use of smartphones and growing rates of depression among teens. The study
revealed that teens feelings of sadness and negative thoughts had gone up by 12 per cent
between 2010 and 2017. Nearly half of the teens who spend five or more hours a day on a
smartphone have mixed feelings of anger and sadness compared to 28 per cent of those
who spend less than an hour a day on a device.
‘These days, teens can never just step away from social media’, said Brian Nolan, a
social worker at a secondary school in the US state of Illinois. When your parents were at
school they could go out with their friends during the day, and they would relax with their
family at night. There was balance. But smartphones don’t give that break. The continuous
fear of missing out, or the need to feel included, keep teens connected. ‘A recent study
shows that we touch them about 2,500 times a day on average. To tell a student you can’t
use it is the same as saying you can’t eat. That may sound extreme but that’s the reality’,
Nolan said.
School social workers, as well as health experts at hospitals, confirm they are seeing a
rise in signs of depression and worry among teens. But they also say, there are things
teens, their parents, and professionals can do to help lower the risks. They say that the best
way to fight this is to discuss healthy ways to use smartphones.
A) From a, b, c and d, choose the correct answer: (6 x10= 60 ms)

transportation once more.
