We can develop alternative sources of energy, and unless we try we’ll never succeed.

Unless we do search on solar energy, wind power, tidal power, hydroelectric plants … our fossil fuels will run out and we’ll freeze or starve from the sun, the waves, and the winds last forever. We won’t really survive unless we aren’t working on cleaner and safer sources of energy.

There is a list of interesting jobs that we’ll never have again, and a town crier is, of course, on the list. It’s been a long time since town criers worked professionally, so there are not many people knowing who town criers were. Today we can only see them in the movies or at some old tourist sites. Before newspapers were invented, a town crier, who was usually an older gentleman with a booming voice, always dressed officially and had a little bell which he carried with him always. His job was to go through city streets ringing the belt and shouting the latest news as he was walking.

The occupation of the town crier was quickly replaced by radio, television, texting, internet, and all the marvels of modern technology. Today this occupation exists only for entertaining purposes and as local folklore. Competitions for the best town criers are still being held in some parts of the world like America, Australia, Canada and England.

13. A lot of people now work as professional town criers.

14. Today people can get to know about town criers in films and at some tourist attractions.

15. Town criers had worked professionally before mass media were invented.

A. The birth of town crying

B. Town crying, an extinct job

C. Town criers and modern technology

D. Town crying for entertainment

18. It can be inferred from the passage that town criers used to ____.

A. live in a town square.

B. be waited and welcomed to town squares.

C. make loud deep sounds

D. take part in competitions in western countries

There are many ways to cut the (19) ___ of your power bill in your home. Take a look at the way we choose computers (a laptop or a desktop computer). A laptop is a computer that is small enough (20) ___ carried around easily and is flat when closed. While a desktop computer is the one that fits on a desk but that is not easily moved from place to place.

Regardless of their convenience difference, choosing a laptop or a desktop computer may result in a significant difference in energy (21) ___. I’m writing this by using a laptop with power (22) ___ features switched on – using around 50 watts maximum. Back some years ago, I would work with a desktop computer with a 17” CRT screen – around 300 watts all told.

The following are some rough (23) ___ based on coal fired power generation for just the computer aspect:

- Laptop = 50w x 10 hours a day x 365 days = 182.5 kilowatt hours

- Desktop = 300w x 10 hours a day x 365 = 1095 kilowatt hours

In the case of coal fired electricity, each kilowatt you save not only puts (24) ___ back into your pockets, but also avoids up to 1.5 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions being generated.
