Reading comprehension
Read the following passage, and then answer the questions:

UFO’s
Unidentified flying object is the popular term for any aerial phenomenon whose cause cannot be easily identified by the observer. The United States Air Force, which invented the expression in 1952, defined UFOs as those objects that remain unidentified after investigations. Though the term UFO is often used more generally to describe any sighting unidentifiable to the reporting observer(s). Most people frequently take the term UFO as a meaning for alien spacecraft. Studies have established that the majority of UFOs are observations of some real but conventional object most commonly aircraft, balloons, or astronomical objects such as meteors or bright planets that have been misidentified by the observer. Only a small percentage of reported sightings can be classified as unidentified flying objects in the right sense.
On January 25, 1878, newspapers wrote that local farmer John Martin had reported seeing a large, dark, circular flying object resembling a balloon flying "at wonderful speed." Martin also said it appeared to be about the size of a saucer, the first known use of the word "saucer" in association with a UFO. The Roswell UFO Incident was the declared accident of a terrestrial alien, including corpses, from an object, which crashed near Roswell, New Mexico, USA, on or about July 8, 1947. Since the late 1970s the Roswell incident has been the subject of intense controversy and the subject of conspiracy theories as to the true nature of the object, which crashed. The incident has turned into a widely known pop culture phenomenon, making the name Roswell synonymous with UFOs. It ranks as one of the most publicized and controversial UFO incidents ever.

Answer the following questions:
1. Do you think UFO’s visit us in our world?
2. When was the UFO expression first used?
3. When was the word saucer first used?
Choose the right answer from a, b, c, or d:
4. The Roswell UFO Incident was ------------------- by the government.
a. declared b. refused c. hidden d. a rumour
5. The word controversy in the last paragraph means: -------------.
a. public discussions b. opposition c. rumours d. stories

The other serious problem is the quality of air in big cities, especially in Cairo where pollution rates are so high, that it exceeded permitted levels in some parts. We also need enforcing laws on car emissions.
