Scientific Breakthroughs
Long ago, people could cook their food and heat their houses only by burning wood or coal. They weren’t able to work at night because they did not have electric lights. They were able to travel long distances, but it took a very long time. Now, thanks to oil, gas, and electricity, our homes are more comfortable. We have easy access to light, heat, and hot water. We are able to travel comfortably and quickly by automobile and plane. We can work 24/7. All of these things are good, but there is a

Downside. Oil, gas, and coal may harm the earth.
Renewable energy can help solve this problem. For example, we are able to use the sun’s energy to create electricity in small amounts. Solar panels can use the sun’s energy to produce heat. In addition, we are able to use solar energy in batteries for our cars.
Unfortunately, we cannot use solar energy for all of our needs right now. However, we can use less energy. We can turn off the lights when we leave a room. We can reuse water bottles and plastic bags. In general, we can try to be more careful about how we use energy today.

a. How the people were able to cook in the past?

LEARNING ENGLISH
Today, millions of people want to learn or improve their English but it is difficult to find the best method. Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country?
The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious. Firstly, you will be able to listen to the language all the time you are in the country. You will be surrounded completely by the language wherever you go. Another advantage is that you have to speak the language if you are with other people. In Italy, it is always possible, in the class, to speak Italian if you want to and the learning is slower.
On the other hand, there are also advantages to staying at home to study. You don't have to make big changes to your life. As well as this, it is also a lot cheaper than going to Britain but it is never possible to achieve the results of living in the UK. If you have a good teacher in Italy, I think you can learn in a more concentrated way than being in Britain without going to a school.
So, in conclusion, I think that if you have enough time and enough money, the best choice is to spend some time in the UK. This is simply not possible for most people, so being here in Italy is the only viable option. The most important thing to do in this situation is to maximize your opportunities: to speak only English in class and to try to use English whenever possible outside the class.

Which event introduces the solution in this passage?

Tamica stood gasping at the window next to the gate, watching her plane taxi down the runway. It gained speed, its nose tilted skyward, and then it left the ground behind, tucking up its now-unneeded wheels as it soared toward the United States. This was not only Tamica's plane, it was also the night's last plane from London to the United States.
Tamica sat down right where she was to think. Her semester in the small English town of Sheffield was over, and she was supposed to be flying home right now. She'd moved out of the flat she'd shared with other students and all of her belongings were now airborne. She was faced with a long night in the airport or a night in the unfamiliar city of London.
"Mom, what am I going to do?" Tamica groaned on the phone.
"Tamica, I have a friend who lives near Heathrow Airport in London. I'll call her and try to have her come get you. Does that sound alright?"
"Yes, thank you!" Tamica exclaimed.
Outside the airport, Tamica sat down once again, still without luggage, but with a calmer mind. Home would have to wait until tomorrow.

B.
Kansas City is too industrialized to have many parks.
C.
Many people live too far away to access Kansas City parks.
D.
Most people have access to one of Kansas City's parks.

THE PASSAGE:
Even in a city as large and industrialized as Kansas City, beautiful nature can be found and enjoyed. Parks and nature preserves are located all over the city. Sometimes, it can be hard to find them unless you know where to begin looking. A good place to start is the Parks Department Web site. On it, you will find the locations of these and other great parks.
For the nature lover, hiking trails are very important. Trails can be smooth sidewalks through manicured parks or rough dirt tracks through wilderness areas. Kansas City has both and everything in between. Whether you are a young, avid hiker or a senior citizen looking for a leisurely stroll, you will find something.
Shawnee Mission Park is one of Kansas City’s most popular parks. This 1,250 acre park is one of the most visited parks in the state. It has beautiful hiking trails for people of all ages and abilities. Native wildlife is everywhere! Also, Shawnee Mission Park has a sparkling lake and camp grounds. For the dog lovers, Shawnee Mission Park has one of the largest off-leash dog parks in the city!
A short drive outside of Kansas City will take you to Fleming Park, the largest park in the area. Fleming Park is a popular destination for bird watchers and is the home of the Burroughs Audubon Library. The park also contains two lakes, campgrounds, and hundreds of miles of trails. Don’t forget your bathing suit and your wildlife guide!
In the city, it is easy to forget that we are animals and that we live with nature. Get out to one of these great parks to remember those facts. If you do not have access to a car, check the Parks Department Web site and look for something in your area or just off of the public transportation routes. It is worth your time.
