Summer Job Hi, I am Evan. In summer, after schools are closed, I work at a theme park in a nearby coastal town. I love summer time and working at the park so I can't wait till the schools close for the summer. The amusement park where I work is really big with lots of fun rides and restaurants. But what's best about it is that it is actually built on the beach. This is a beach town and there is a really long boardwalk by the beach with many shops, food stores and stairs to the beach at several points. The main entrance to the park is also from the boardwalk. The park also has access to the beach so you can get to the beach by going through the park. I work there as a ride operator at one of the roller coasters which is the most fun. There are three other employees who work at the same ride with me. We welcome the riders, remind them the safety procedures and operate the ride. I work here for about two months every summer and enjoy it very much. They organize several fun events over the summer with free food, ice-cream and games for the workers. The park access is free for the employees so I can ride the rides as much as I want. My family and friends love visiting me here because I can get them free admission to the park too. The only bad part about working here is that it gets too hot sometimes. But even then, I can just jump in the cool waters of the Atlantic ocean and refresh. Question: What does Evan like the most about the park?
- A.
It has many fun rides.
- B.
The roller coaster.
- C.
The park is on the beach.
- D.
Free food and ice-cream.
Correct Answer
C. The park is on the beach.Explanation

My Day Hi, my name is Joshua. I am a financial adviser. Yesterday I had a very busy day. I woke up at half past six.

I arrived at work at ten to eight. I needed to finish up six reports before noon. At twelve o'clock I had half an hour lunch with my colleagues. After lunch we had a meeting until two o’clock. Then I visited one of my clients at three o’clock to talk about his financial plans. I came back to work at around four o'clock and prepared three more reports.

The Moon The Moon is the satellite of the Earth. It is about the quarter size of the Earth. It goes around the Earth approximately in one month. It is about 384,000 kilometers away from the Earth. There is no air or atmosphere around it, so there is no life on the Moon. It has about 13 and a half days daylight and 13 and a half nights of darkness. Temperatures on the Moon is 120 °C during the lunar day and -150 °C during the lunar night. Because there is no air or atmosphere, there is also no sound as the sound waves travel through the air. So, The Moon is very silent. question: Why there is no life on the Moon?
- A.
Because it is so far away.
- B.
Because it has only 13 days of daylight.
- C.
Because there is no atmosphere or air.
- D.
Because there is no sound.
Correct Answer
C. Because there is no atmosphere or air.Explanation
The Moon does not have an atmosphere or air, which means there is no oxygen or other gases necessary for life to exist. Without an atmosphere, there is also no protection from harmful radiation or extreme temperatures. Therefore, the absence of an atmosphere or air is the main reason why there is no life on the Moon.Rate this question:

The option "we cannot cook there" is not directly related to the absence of air or atmosphere, so it can also complete the sentence. However, the option "it is the satellite of the Earth" does not provide any information about the absence of air or atmosphere, so it cannot complete the sentence.Rate this question:

Dear Daniel, If you'd like to improve your English, one thing you can do is to build up your vocabulary. In order to do this, you have to practice a lot. I’m afraid there is not a short cut for this. But there are many effective ways. First of all, you should read a lot. You can read short stories, comics, newspapers, magazines etc. depending on your English level. As you read, you can try to guess the meanings of unknown words from the context of the sentence. If you cannot, then look up the definition in a dictionary. English to English dictionary should be your first choice and keep the translator as last. Another way of building vocabulary is to watch movies in English which will also help with pronunciation. Try to be involved with the language as much as you can. Keep a vocabulary notebook and write down a few words each day. Keep in mind that you have to revise them regularly. In my opinion, to communicate with people all you need is words. Even if you just say the words one after another, people most likely will understand what you mean regardless of the order of the words and grammar. Question: What is the main point of this e-mail?
- A.
What can we do to improve our English
- B.
Difficulties of learning English
- C.
Problems of learning a second language alone
- D.
What's the best way of learning English
Correct Answer

The main point of this email is to provide suggestions on how to improve English language skills. The email advises the reader to build up their vocabulary by reading extensively, guessing word meanings from context, using a dictionary, and watching movies in English.

Correct Answer
A. We should use a translator for all the unknown words.Explanation
Using a translator for all unknown words is incorrect because it can hinder the development of vocabulary and language skills. It is more effective to try to understand the meaning of unknown words from the context or use an English to English dictionary. Relying solely on a translator can prevent the learner from fully grasping the nuances and usage of words in different contexts.Rate this question:
