1. __________

Here is a fast and easy recipe for a special mashed sweet potato treat that serves two
people. You begin with peeling two large potatoes and cooking them in a pot of boiling
water. When a fork or knife inserted into them pulls out easily, you will know they are
done. Then take them from the pot and drain them well. Next, place them in a large
mixing bowl and add two tablespoons of butter. Mash with a potato masher until the
lumps are gone. Meanwhile, in a skillet, melt a tablespoon of butter and add a bunch of
chopped green onions. Cook them for about one minute and mix with the mash. Then
add more butter if desired. Serve and eat!

2. _________

Digestive process begins when food enters the mouth. After the mouth chews and
swallows the food, it goes to the throat and then travels to the esophagus or swallowing
tube. Next the esophagus, through a series of contractions called peristalsis delivers the
food to the stomach which acts as the storage tank. The stomach contains hydrochloric
acid and digestive enzymes which when mix with the food, the food begins to break
down into smaller molecules. Then the food enters the small intestine where in 90% of
the food nutrients have been extracted here and absorbed by the body. The remaining
goes to the large intestine as waste product. Finally, this waste product is excreted from
the body as a solid matter called stool.

3. _________

The atmosphere is composed of different levels. The first level, called troposphere, is the
nearest to Earth, about 11km thick. Most clouds and weather are found in this layer.
Next is the stratosphere which is about 11-48km above the Earth’s surface. In it is the
ozone layer which absorbs most of the harmful ultraviolet radiation from the Sun. The
mesosphere is above the stratosphere in which the atmosphere is very rarefied, and the
temperature decreases with altitude. The fourth layer is the thermosphere which starts
at about 55km. the temperature is so hot that it cannot be measured by a thermometer.
Temperature may be thousands of degrees high. The second to the last is the
exosphere, the region beyond the thermosphere. Finally, the ionosphere overlaps the
other layers from above the Earth. The air id ionized by the Sun’s ultraviolet rays. These
ionized layers affect the transmittance and reflectance of radio waves. All in all, there
are six levels of the Earth atmosphere.

4. _________
 Forests are very useful. They supply lumber which is used for building houses, stones,
offices and other buildings. Some forest trees give materials for making pulp, paper,
wallboard and furniture, rattan, gum and firewood. Medicinal plants are also taken from
forests.

5. _________

The amount of water on Earth remains constant. But its form is always changing, from
solid to liquid, from liquid to gas, and back again. It moves in a pattern called the water
cycle. Heat from the sun causes water in oceans, lakes and rivers to evaporate into
vapor. Further vapor is given off by plants and animals.

6. _________
Animals are born in different ways. Some animals are egg-laying while some are born
alive. Animals which lay eggs to the environment are birds, snakes, frogs, turtles, lizards
and insects while animals which undergo gestation are born alive. Cats, cows, dogs, and
whales are animals which are born alive.

Water shortage is becoming a serious problem in the city because of the

growing population. That is why the city government has to take concrete steps to
address it. One solution is to make more water available through recycling. The
building of more desalination plants may be done but it is very expensive. Another
solution that the city officials are doing now is educating the people so they do not
waste water. Meanwhile, there is also a move of the government to protect existing
water supplies from being polluted. There are some more ideas to help solve the
problem, but maybe, the ultimate solution is that everyone must become actively
involved.
