Paragrap 3 ( unit 14 )
 Although square dancing is considered a typically American form of dance, its origin can be traced to earlier European folk dances.The traditional formation, a square consisting of four couples facing each other, can be found in many old European formation dances, including English Morris dancing , Scottish reels, and Irish jigs, as well as the elegant ballroom dancing of the royal courts.
 Historically, square dancing in America has followed two separate lines of development, referred to as eastern square dance and western or cowboy square dance.The eastern dance was clearly related to New England country dancing, with the four-couple square.In contrast,western square dance was adapted from Appalachian Mountain dances such as the Kentucky running set.In the running set, couples from a circle of any number of couples, although often traditional four-couple circles are preferred.Western dance was also influenced by the dances already found in the region, especially those of Spain and Mexico.
 Modern American square dancing includes elements of both the eastern and western varieties.The traditional four-couple square is popular, but all four couples join hands for circle figures around the square as well.Unlike the original dances, which could be memorized, modern dances are more spontaneous. Square dances rely on a caller to cue the steps while they are dancing.They must listen carefully to stay in step with the other dancers in the square.

Paragrap 5 ( unit 15 )
 Are there intelligent beings on other planets in our solar system ?Most scientists don’t think so .If there is , the only likely place is Mars.
 It is fun to imagine our kind of human on other planets, but they would probably look so different that we might not recognize them as people at all.Living things have a wonderful way of adapting themselves to conditions around them in order to stay alive. Plants grow in the Artic.Some simple animals can survice being boiled or frozen. Creatures can live in the blackest depths of the sea under thousands of tons of pressure.
 We can really say that our kind of air is the only kind living things could breathe, or that we must have water of certain climate. Creatures that breathed other gases or lived in temperatures that would kill earthmen, however, certainly wouldn’t look like us.
 Are there people anywhere else in the universe ? Maybe there are. In our own galaxy there are millions of stars. Some must have planets with conditions like those on earth .Somewhere in space there could be other thinking beings. If their planets are older, they may know more than we do . They may be travelling in space.
Most scientists don’t think that ..
A. Mars is a planet B. there is Mars C. man is intelligent D. there is man on other planets in our solar system
 2. Scientists think that any intelligent beings on other planets in our solar system would
A. live under thousands of tons of pressure B. already be travelling in space

 One of the most famous monuments in the world, the Statue of Liberty, was presented to the United States of America in the nineteenth century by the people of France. The great statue, which was designed by the sculptor Auguste Bartholdi, took ten years to complete.The actual figure was made of copper supported by a metal framework which had been especially constructed by Eiffel.Before it could be transported to the United States, a site had to be found for it and a pedestal had to be built.The site chosen was an island at the entrance of New York Harbour.By 1884, a statue which was 151 feet tall, had been erected in Paris.The following year, it was taken to pieces and sent to America. By the end of October 1886, the statue had been put together again and it was officially presented to the American people by Bartholdi.
