3 a) Complete the passage with the correct form of the verbs in parentheses.
Astronomy is the oldest science in the world. Since ancient times, people (1) (look) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . at the sky
and (2) (study) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . the stars and the planets. Long ago, before recorded history, people (3) (begin)
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . naming the groups of starswhat we (4) (now, call) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . the
constellations. In 1609, Galileo (5) (build) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . the first astronomical telescope, and since then, we
(6) (develop) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . larger and better telescopes. We (7) (also, travel) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . to
our own Moon, and (8) (send) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . space probes to the planets to study their atmospheres and
surfaces. Nowadays, we (9) (have) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . satellites and shuttles, with people living and working in
them for months at a time, orbiting the Earth. In 1957, the U.S.S.R. (10) (launch) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Sputnik 1,
the first manmade satellite, and then in 1961, Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin (11) (become) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . the
first human to orbit Earth. But while the Soviets (12) (do) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . all this, the Americans (13) (race) . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . to catch up, and in 1969, they (14) (finally, do) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. The spacecraft Apollo
11(15) (land) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . on the Moon and astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin (16)
(walk) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . on its surfacethe first humans ever to do so. But still the big question (17) (remain) . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . unanswered. Is there life on other planets ? Since the 19th century, many people (18) (believe) . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . that there is, or was, life on Mars. And earlier this year, scientists in Britain (19) (make) . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . an exciting discovery. About twenty years ago, a meteorite from Mars (20)
(fall) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . to Earth. Recently, scientists (21) (find) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . that samples from
this meteorite (22) (contain) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . small amounts of carbonthe essential element for life. So now,
these scientists (23) (carry) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . out further tests to try to prove their theory that Mars can
support life. And what of the future ? Many people (24) (think) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . that there is clear evidence
that the world (25) (soon, be) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . too polluted and too crowded for us to live on any more. They
are certain that one day, we (26) (have to) find new places to live, and they (27) (believe) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . that
these places (28) (be) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . in space.

(sit) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . down together in a small caf by the seaside. The man gently (15) (place) . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . the lobster on the table and (16) (order) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . a cappuccino. While the surprised waiter
(17) (run) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . to get the mans drink, Mathilde (18) (sit) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . down at the
table across from the man. Suddenly, the man (19) (speak) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . to Mathilde: Probably, right now
you (20) (ask) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . yourself, Why this man (21) (have) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . a lobster on a

his name is Felix(22) (serve) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . as my only friend for the last 20 years. When I (23)
(find) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . him on the seaside a short time after my wife (24) (die) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . , he

. . . . . . . . . . . . . him back to health, and ever since then he (28) (follow) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . me around faithfully.
But doesnt he need ocean water ? Of course, my dear ! At home, I (29) (keep) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . him in a
large saltwater aquarium. But every three days, I (30) (take) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . him out for a walk so that he can
take the air of the lovely city of Marseilles. I see, said Mathilde. Can I ask you another question ? Of course, my
dear !
Why (31) you (name) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . your lobster Felix ? The reason is very simple. I (32) (name) . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . him Felix because I (33) (not want) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . to name him Jedediah. Think about it,

(begin) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . to tear the fish apart with his claws and front legs. While he (43) (do) . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . this, the table (44) (become) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . very messy. At this point, the waiter (45)
(come) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . over to the table. Excuse me, sir, he said nervously, Im sorry, but the manager (46)
just (tell) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . me that you must leave. Of course, of course, answered the man calmly. He (47)
(pick) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . up Felix and (48) (start) to go while he (49) (hold) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . the
