Balloons
Have you ever wondered what keeps a hot air balloon
flying? The same principle that keeps food frozen in
the open chest freezers at the grocery store allows
hot air balloons to fly. It’s a very basic principle: Hot air
rises and cold air falls. So while the super-cooled air
in the grocery store freezer settles down around the
food, the hot air in a hot air balloon pushes up, keeping the balloon floating above the ground. In order to
understand more about how this principle works in
hot air balloons, it helps to know more about hot air
balloons themselves.
A hot air balloon has three major parts: the basket, the
burner, and the envelope. The basket is where passengers ride. The basket is usually made of wicker. This
ensures that it will be comfortable and add little extra
weight. The burner is positioned above the passenger’s heads and produces a huge flame to heat the air
inside the envelope. The envelope is the colorful fabric
balloon that holds the hot air. When the air inside the
envelope is heated, the balloon rises.
The pilot can control the up-and-down movements of
the hot air balloon by regulating the heat in the envelope. To ascend, the pilot heats the air in the envelope.
When the pilot is ready to land, the air in the balloon is
allowed to cool and the balloon becomes heavier than
air. This makes the balloon descend.
Before the balloon is launched, the pilot knows which
way the wind is blowing. This means that she has a
general idea........................... which way the balloon will
go. But, sometimes the pilot can actually control the
direction that the balloon flies while.......................................... flight.
This is because the air above the ground is sectioned .........................................layers in which the direction of the wind
may be different. So even though the pilot can’t steer
the balloon, she can fly or higher or lower into a different layer ......................................air. Some days the difference
between the direction of the wind between layers is
negligible. But other days the difference is so strong
that it can actually push the balloon in a completely
different direction!

Analyse the statements below about the excerpt “I think that actually made it easier for us. We always write the quickest when we have a story or we're writing about something that's happened.” (l. 14-15).
I. “Easier” is a comparative form of the adjective “easy”, and it is written this way because the spelling rule for short adjectives ending in consonant + y is to drop the y and add ier.
II. “Quickest” is a comparative form of the adverb “quick”, and it is written this way because the spelling rule for short adverbs in general is to add est.
III. If “easier” were replaced by a long adjective like “beautiful,” its comparative form would be “more beautiful”.

Polar bears and climate changing
When we think about global warming and climate
change, we usually think ________________how it is going
to affect humans. However, we need to think about
animals, too. Many species will be threatened
______________________ extinction by the end of this century
if climate change is not halted. One of these is the
world’s largest land predator, the polar bear. This magnificent native ___________________ the Arctic previously had
no natural enemy apart _______________________man, but is now
under threat from nature itself. Because of melting sea
ice, it is likely that more polar bears will soon starve,
warns a new study that discovered the large carnivores
need to eat 60 percent more than anyone had realized.
Polar bears use floating ice as a platform to hunt
seals from. They eat a large volume of food during
the winter, storing enough fat under their skin to last
them through the summer months. When the ice
melts in the spring, many travel south to places such
as Churchill, Canada, returning north when the seas
freeze again, usually around October. Now, however,
the winter ice is melting earlier and forming later. The
bears’ store of fat runs out, and some starve to death.
Other bears are drowning, because many of the ice
platforms have melted, and some bears have to swim
over a hundred kilometres from one ice platform to
another. Due to exhaustion or stormy weather, some
never make it to their destinations.

“their”, in the text, are, respectively

Reality Television
Reality television is a genre of television programming
which, it is claimed, presents unscripted dramatic or
humorous situations, documents actual events, and
features ordinary people rather than professional
actors. It could be described as a form of artificial or
“heightened” documentary. Although the genre has
existed in some form or another since the early years
of television, the current explosion of popularity dates
from around 2000.
Reality television covers a wide range of television
programming formats, _____________game or quiz
shows which resemble the frantic, often demeaning
programmes produced in Japan _____________ the 1980s and
1990s (a modern example is Gaki no tsukai), _____________surveillance-focused productions such __________ Big Brother.
Critics say that the term “reality television” is somewhat of a misnomer and that such shows frequently
portray a modified and highly influenced form of
reality, with participants put in exotic locations or
abnormal situations, sometimes coached to act in
certain ways by off-screen handlers, and with events
on screen manipulated through editing and other
post-production techniques.
Part of reality television’s appeal is due to its ability
to place ordinary people in extraordinary situations.
For example, on the ABC show, The Bachelor, an
eligible male dates a dozen women simultaneously,
travelling on extraordinary dates to scenic locales.
Reality television also has the potential to turn its participants into national celebrities, outwardly in talent
and performance programs such as Pop Idol, though
frequently Survivor and Big Brother participants also
reach some degree of celebrity.
Some commentators have said that the name “reality television” is an inaccurate description for several
styles of program included in the genre. In competition-based programs such as Big Brother and Survivor,
and other special-living-environment shows like The
Real World, the producers design the format of the
show and control the day-to-day activities and the
environment, creating a completely fabricated world
in which the competition plays out. Producers specifically select the participants, and use carefully designed
scenarios, challenges, events, and settings to encourage particular behaviours and conflicts. Mark Burnett,
creator of Survivor and other reality shows, has agreed
with this assessment, and avoids the word “reality” to
describe his shows; he has said, “I tell good stories. It
really is not reality TV. It really is unscripted drama.
The following words: ‘frequently’, ‘sometimes ‘ and
‘often’, from the text are being used in the text as:
