EMGLISH DAILY TEST 3

SEMESTER 1 / GRADE XII

2023/2024

This text is for questions 1 to 3

Have you ever been stuck on the side of the road with a flat tire? Do you want to be
able to change a tire without having to ask for help? Fortunately, changing a tire is
a pretty simple task, provided you're prepared and willing to exert a little effort.

1. Find a flat, stable and safe place to change your tire. You should have a
solid, level surface that will restrict the car from rolling. If you are near a road,
park as far from traffic as possible and turn on your emergency flashers (hazard
lights). Avoid soft ground and hills.
2. Apply the parking brake and put car into "Park" position. If you have a
standard transmission, put your vehicle in first or reverse.
3. Place a heavy object (e.g., rock, concrete, spare wheel, etc.) in front of the
front and back tires.
4. Take out the spare tire and the jack. Place the jack under the frame near the
tire that you are going to change. Ensure that the jack is in contact with the
metal portion of your car's frame
5. Raise the jack until it is supporting (but not lifting) the car. The jack
should be firmly in place against the underside of the vehicle. Check to make
sure that the jack is perpendicular to the ground.
6. Remove the hubcap and loosen the nuts by turning counterclockwise.
Don't take them all the way off; just break the resistance. By keeping the wheel
on the ground when you first loosen the nuts, you'll make sure that you're
turning the nuts instead of the wheel.
7. Pump or crank the jack to lift the tire off the ground. You need to lift it high
enough to remove the flat tire and replace it with a spare.
8. Remove the nuts the rest of the way. Turn them counterclockwise until they
are loose. Repeat with all lug nuts, then remove the nuts completely.
9. Remove the tire. Place the flat tire under the vehicle so in the event of a jack
failure the vehicle will fall on the old wheel, hopefully preventing injury. If the
jack is placed on a flat, solid base, you shouldn't have any problems.
10. Place the spare tire on the hub. Take care to align the rim of the spare tire
with the wheel bolts, then put on the lug nuts.
11. Tighten the nuts by hand until they are all snug
12. Lower the car without applying full weight on the tire. Tighten the nuts
as much as possible.
13. Lower the car to the ground fully and remove the jack. Finish tightening
the nuts and replace the hubcap.

A. To tell how to lift a tire.
B. To tell how to place a tire.
C. To tell how to move a tire.

B. To prevent from a jack failure.
C. To make it easier to be removed.
 D. To prevent our body from getting hurt.

drinking clear soda, clear broth or non-caffeinated sports drinks, such as
Gatorade. You're getting enough fluid when you're urinating normally and your
urine is clear and not dark.
