Space
hollidays
July 2009 was the 40th anniversary of man first
walking on the moon. Ever since that day, we have
been promised that holidays in space are not far
away. Now a representative for the World Tourism
Organisation predicts that, in the next ten years,
people will be queuing to book their holidays in
space. They will fly by rocket to a space station
which will be orbiting the Earth at a height of
320 kilometres - that is about the same as the
distance from Cairo to EI-Minya.The space
station itself will be like a giant spinning wheel
with spokes like a bike wheel.There will be two
kinds of spokes: those with ordinary gravity and
those with zero gravity for weightless sports.
Some people who are interested in space holidays
are worried that, as space tourists. they will
suffer from the same horrible side effects as
astronauts have suffered from. but experts say that
there are now treatments for most side effects.
Just think about such a holiday in space! Everyone
who has travelled in space has described the
magical feeling of looking down on the Earth
as it spins below you. It will be impossible to go
shopping or go for a walk, but think of the fun you
can have with weightless football or weightless
gymnastics.
For most people. the main disadvantage at
the moment is the cost of space holidays.
Currently. the cost of a holiday is very high.
But. like everything else. the more people want
to do something. the cheaper it will become. So.
if you are interested, start saving now! 3

THE PRISONER OF
ZENDA
The story takes place in nineteenth-century Europe.
Rudolf Rassendyll, a wealthy Englishman, is the
cousin of Rudolf Elphberg, who is about to become
the new king of Ruritania, a fictional country in
central Europe. Rudolf decides to travel
to Ruritania to attend the coronation of his cousin
,
who he has not met before. Soon after he arrives

he is walking through a forest when he meets the
future king. The two men are surprised to discover
that they are so alike: they are almost identical twins.

However, on the night before the great occasion,
Rudolf Elphberg is kidnapped by his younger
brother Michael and locked in the castle in the
town of Zenda. Although Michael does not have
the right to be the next king of the country, he is
popular with some of the people of Ruritania. He
wants to stop the coronation so that he can become
the next king himself.
Rudolf Rassendyll solves the problem by taking
his cousin's place. Because the two men look so
alike, nobody realises what is happening and the
coronation takes place as planned. While Rudolf
Elphberg remains in the castle, Rudolf Rassendyll
lives the life of the king and spends time with his
cousin's friends. At the same time, he realises that he
cannot remain the king of Ruritania for ever. He
decides to rescue RudolfElphberg.
The story ends happily for Elphberg when he finally
becomes the new king. Michael dies. Rassendyll
says goodbye to his friends and leaves the country.
The people of Ruritania never find out what has
really happened.

Nothing can Live without energy.
People, animals and plants need energy
to Live and machines need energy to
work. Today, most of the energy we use
stiU comes from fossil fuels Like coaL,
oil and gas, which have been formed
underground over miUions of years. We
caU these forms of energy
because they can only be used once.
Because of this, we need to reduce our
use of fuels and use more
renewable forms of energy like those
from the sun, wind or geothermal energy.
For centuries, the wind has been used
to sail ships and to pump water. Now
it is used to produce electricity. Groups
of wind turbines along the Red Sea
in Egypt generate Large amounts of
electricity. Water is also a renewable
form of energy. Huge quantities of water
go through the High Dam at Aswan
from Lake Nasser. This hydroeIecbic
power suppLies Egypt with a Lot of its
electricity. As weU as being inexpensive
to produce, this dean energy does not
poUute the environment.
Other countries depend on nuclear
power - power produced when atoms
split. However, nuclear power produces
dangerous waste which must be stored
for thousands of years before it is safe.
Accidents at nuclear power stations are
dangerous to people's health
and to the environment
Energy from the sun is probably the best
form of renewable energy. Scientists
believe that. the sun's energy will last for
another five billion years. This energy
can now be captured and stored.
It is important for us to save energy in
our homes and workplaces in order to
stop using up non-renewable sources of
energy.

You are driving your smart car along the
motorway from Cairo to Aswan when
something goes wrong with the engine. You
do not know what the problem is, but the
computer in your car will help you. It will
examine the engine and find what is wrong.
It wiJI then connect to the internet to find the
distance to the nearest garage where your
car can be repaired. The computer will then
send an e-mail to the garage to check that
it has the parts you need for your car. If the
garage has these, you will receive an e-mail
asking when you would like to take your car
to be repaired. You will reply on your mobile
phone, which will e-mail your message to
the garage. In this way, your car's engine
problems will be solved.
There is also a device which will control
how fast you can drive on the road you are
on. It does not matter what you do, it will
be impossible to drive faster than what the
device tells the engine. Experts have found
that this device will reduce the number of
road accidents and save thousands of lives
every year.
Is this just science fiction? No, both these
devices are currently being used. You can
find informafion about them on the internet.
Drivers all over the world ar!=! already using
sat-nov systems to tell them where they
are and how to get to a destination. In

Interviewer: Doctor Zaki. I've heard that we gel ellelgy
from rocks under the earth. Couldrou
explain how for our listeners?
Dr Zaki: Yes, of course. We gel energyfrom (he
heat inside the earth. This is knowl1 as
geothermal energy. "Geo" means earlh
and "thermal" means heat.
Interviewer: But rocks are cold. aren they?
Dr Zaki: Not all rocks are cold. Below the slIr/ace

DrZaki:
Interviewer:
say that these rocks are molten.
I see.
The molten rock heats underground lakn
of water. Sometimes. steam is produced
like this. When the hot water comes up
through a hole in the earth :s- surface,
that s when we get 1101 sprillgs.
Is this like the hot water that comes lip in
the Siwa Oasis?

:br Zaki:'

That s right.
That s very interesting. But I don
understand how we can use energy from
these molten rocks.
Well, using today's technology, we drill
deep below the earth s surface into the
underground lakes of hot water. This
water is then pumped to the suiface and
. is heated again to make steam. The steam
is then piped to a power station where it
is connected to machines which produce
electricity.
. Interviewer;
. 'Dr Zaki;
That's incredible. So we do this already?
Yes. There are geothermal powers stations
that produce as much energy as two large
coal power stations.

about this very interesting subject.

energy. Ask them what advantages it has got
and why it is better for the environment than
energy produced by traditional power stations.
2 Discuss the questions with the class.
'Suggested answer: -------------
Geothennal energy does less damage than traditional
. power stations because the water used is already heated
and it does not create pollution.

b We fonn passive verbs by using the verb
be and the past participle form of the
main verb.
c The main reason for using the passive
is to emphasise a particular word or idea - o lien
the main subject of the sentence. In the example
sentence Water is pumped to the surface and
heated again, water is the main focus of attention.
In the example sentence People pump water to Ihe
surface and heat it again, people is the main focus.
but the sentence is really about water not the people
who pump it. Other reasons include:
it is not important who does tile action
45

Energy
it is obvious who does the action so we don't
need to name the person/people
we don't know exactly who does the action
d Active sentences with intransitive verbs (that do not
have an object) cannot be made into the
passive. In the example sentence, the verb come up
is intransitive: it has no object.
e For example: camp, lie, limp. roar
Many verbs have both transitive and intransitive
uses.
