III. Reading Comprehension


Read the passage below and choose the best answer (A, B, C, or D) for each question (51–
60).

Electric Cars – The Future of Transportation

In recent years, electric cars have become increasingly popular due to concerns about air
pollution and the rising cost of petrol. Unlike traditional vehicles that run on gasoline,
electric cars use electricity stored in batteries to power an electric motor. These vehicles
produce no harmful emissions, making them much cleaner for the environment.

One of the biggest advantages of electric cars is their efficiency. Electric engines convert
over 80% of electrical energy from the battery into movement, while gasoline engines
convert only about 20%. However, electric cars still face challenges such as limited driving
range and long charging times. Scientists are now working on improving battery technology
to make electric cars travel farther and charge faster.

Governments around the world are also supporting electric vehicles by offering tax
incentives and building public charging stations. With these improvements, it is expected
that electric cars will soon replace most traditional vehicles in cities.
