Each nation has many people who voluntarily take care of others. For example, many high school and college students in the United States often spend many hours as volunteers in hospitals, orphanages or homes for the aged. They read books to the people in these places. Sometimes the students just visit them, play games with them or listen to their problems.
Other young volunteers work in the homes of sick or old people. They clean up their houses, do their shopping or mow their lawns. For boys who no longer have fathers, there is a voluntary organization called Big Brothers. College students take these boys to baseball games and help them to get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.
Some high school students take part in helping disadvantaged or handicapped children. They give care and comfort to them and help them to overcome their difficulties. Young college and university students participate in helping the people who have suffered badly in wars or natural disasters. During summer vacations, they volunteer to work in remote or mountainous areas to provide education for children.
Each city has a number of clubs where boys and girls can go to play games. Some of these clubs organise short trips to the mountains, beaches or other places of interest.

Read the text and decide if the following statements are true or false.
Surveys show that kids are addicted to their smart phones and other mobile devices. So if it seems as if teenagers are spending a lot of time connected to their screens, that's because they are. About a quarter of their day to be exact.
The average teen between 13 and 18 spends about nine hours a day consuming media - and that is outside of their school and homework. Kids aged 8 to 12, or teens, are spending about six hours in front of the screens. They are watching shows, playing games, connecting on social media and listening to music - sometimes all at the same time.
Multitasking is the new normal when it comes to homework time. Most teens listen to music while doing their homework, but many also watch TV (51%) and text (60%). Being asked teenagers say they don't think it is a problem and don't believe it has any impact on the quality of their work.
However, there is evidence that suggests multitasking makes it harder to retain information and that you might perform more poorly on the tasks you are doing.
Another fact surveys find is that it seems kids spend more time consuming media than connecting with their parents and even their teachers.
36. Surveys show that people are addicted to their smartphones and other mobile devices.
37. The average teen between 13 and 18 spends about 8 hours a day consuming media
38. Kids aged 8 to 12, or teens, are spending about 6 hours in front of the screens.

ELEKTRON TO ELECTRIC
The first discovery of electricity is over 2,600 years old. Does that surprise you? Of course, there were no lights, telephones, refrigerators, radios, motion pictures, or television sets that long ago. In fact, all of these modern conveniences are of such recent development that you might well wonder how electricity could be any older than Thomas Edison's development of the first practical electric light bulb in 1879.
The word electricity comes from the Greek word meaning amber, which is elektron. The fossilized sap of a pine tree, amber looks much like a hard lump of honey. In 600 B.C., a Greek philosopher named Thales rubbed a piece of amber against his sleeve to shine it. Much to his interest, he found that the rubbed amber attracted small bits of lint, feathers, and dried leaves. This property of attraction was a strange characteristic which he thought only amber had. Today, our word electricity still goes back to Thales' early discovery about amber.
More than two thousand years after Thales, an English physician discovered that other substances also had this characteristic of electricity. From then on, more and more men added to the knowledge of electricity. They set off the many developments and discoveries which have brought about our electrical era of today.
36. While not directly stated, it may be inferred from the article that _________________.
A. amber is the only substance that can be magnetized
B. electricity is a recent discovery
C. Thomas Edison really invented electricity
D. facts may be observed long before they are put to practical use
37. This article as a whole tells us _____________.
A. about electricity
B. about amber
C. about the curiosity of an ancient Greek philosopher
D. about Thomas Edison
38. Which device was the first practical application of electricity?
A. the refrigerator
B. the radio
C. the electric bulb
D. the telephone
39. Elektron is ____________________________________.
A. the ability to generate electricity of amber
B. the property of attraction of amber
C. the strange characteristic of amber
D. the Greek word meaning amber
40. Which sentence is NOT true?
A. The name electricity comes from the Greek word for amber.
B. Amber is the fresh sap that runs out of pine trees.
C. Many, many men added to the discoveries of electricity.
D. Thales was a Greek philosopher who lived in ancient times.
