Reading
You have 100,000,000 of these!
The brain is more complex than the most powerful computer. With it you can see and smell flowers, remember holidays, feel pain, hear your favourite singer’s voice and think. It weighs a kilo.
Your brain has about a hundred billion (100,000.000.000) cells (the smallest part of an animal or plant that can exist on its own), and controls everything you do. It receives information from your senses, analyses it, then sends messages. For example, when you put your hand in hot water, you think, “That hurts!” and you take your hand out of the water. Your brain receives the message, “Very hot" from your hand, then immediately sends a message back to your hand, "Take your hand out of the water."
Our senses often work together. For example, try this experiment. Cut a piece of apple, banana and orange. Close your eyes, hold your nose, then taste the fruit. Can you taste the difference between the fruits? Probably not. This is because when you eat something, your brain receives messages from your mouth, eyes and nose.
Your brain also stores past memories and this makes learning and remembering possible. At the same time, your brain controls your breathing, your heart, your body temperature and your digestion.
When you hear a sound, your brain tries to guess where it is coming from. So, if you hear a ringing sound and see a telephone, your brain may guess that the telephone is ringing. But if someone picks up the phone and the ringing sound continues, your brain will guess again. Maybe it's a mobile phone or a film on TV.
Scientists say that our brains always think that light comes downwards, perhaps because sunlight comes down. Our brains first think that the telephone is ringing because our eyes can see the telephone and we can hear the ringing.

Write a letter to your friend, Ali, telling him about the best way to remember new vocabulary. Your name is Hani and you live at 12 Shoubra Street, Cairo.
Model Answer
12 Shoubra Street,
Cairo,
21st October,2008-10-31
Dear Ali,
How are you? I hope you are well. Thank you for your letter. I think the best way to remember new vocabulary is by reading them in context and writing them many times. Another good way is to listen to these words on a tape. This will help you remember them quickly. You should write what you have heard. You shouldn't repeat isolated words. I hope you will be more successful in the future.

6- Read the following passage , then answer the questions:
In Egypt, the tourism industry has come to hold a position of great importance lately. It is felt that it could help increase the national income. In some European countries, tourism has brought in millions of dollars yearly, although they lack the natural and historical attractions we have in Egypt.
We could, for instance, establish tourist villages for children on the Red Sea. We could teach fishing, swimming, diving and sailing there. Another good idea would be a village in the New Valley for horse riding. And what about villages for people with health problems like rheumatism? The warm dry climate of Aswan and Helwan would certainly help them get better.
Our tourist today wants efficient and friendly service. He would probably prefer to try our samples of our local food rather than to eat the international meals, which are served, in some places.
It must also be remembered that most tourists nowadays are seldom rich. Many of them are students or hardworking employees. So what is needed is not expensive hotels but clean comfortable places to sleep and eat in at reasonable prices. This, too, would encourage Egyptians to travel more and more around their lovely country.
A) Answer the following questions:
1- How could we encourage Egyptians to see more and more of their country?
2- Why has tourism become very important?
3- What sort of people did the writer suggest to enjoy our warm dry climate?
4- What does the underlined pronoun “it” in the first paragraph refer to?

5- The writer feels that Egypt has got………………..the other countries which make so much money from tourism.
a) less attractions than b) the least attractions of
c) the same attractions as d) more attractions than
6- According to the writer, if someone has pains in his muscles and joints, he should go to………………………
a) Europe b) Aswan c) The Red Sea d) The New Valley
7- Our hotels should be ……………………………….
a) expensive b) too cheap c) too expensive d) at reasonable prices
