Find 7 mistakes in the paragraph and correct them:

Alternative sources of energy


In the " Search for Free Energy", Tutt's recently released book, he quotes " We ought to be able to obtain the energy we need without the consumption of material." These are not the words of some modern-day environmentalist, but of Nikola Tesla, in 1890. Among his invention was the device to generate electricity by harnessing "coming energy". The search for free, and expensive energy continues. Researchers are looking for "fuelless" technologies that will not pollute or run out, and they are not referring to the puny contribution of solar or wind power. The science establishment has so far been proven correct, there's no such thing as a free energy lunch but that hasn't stopped mad scientists trying. They've come up with numerable patents of "over unity" contraptions, supposed giving out more energy than you put in to get them going. The story is fascinating and rarely heavy-going, although the quotes can be overlong and the diagrams are adequately displayed. Tutt admits that only a fraction of what is claimed is true. But it's also true to say we cannot afford to dismiss them out of hand, as one of these conforming investigators may just be able to save our planet from climate change.

Section II: Read the following passage and answer the questions

In many of our cities, the downtown areas are growing. Every year, more office buildings are built downtown. These office buildings house the head quarters of many different businesses. The building and their occupants make the downtown a business center.

For a while, downtown areas were losing businesses. In the 1960s and 1970s, some companies moved from cities to new industrial parts. The new buildings were in suburban towns instead of in cities. The companies that moved thought that improvements in communications and transportation made it unimportant to be near customers and other films.

More recently, companies have started to move back into downtown areas. They realize that businesses depend on people getting together in person. Salespersons need to meet with customers to show them merchandise. Those who manage businesses want to be able to meet with people from other companies. employees sometimes need the libraries, banks, and other services offered downtown.

Some companies have also found that moving downtown makes it easier to hire people. People enjoy being in a busy downtown where they can shop during lunch hour. They like being near museums, theatres, and restaurants to which they can go after work.

Most people who work downtown have what we call ‘white-collar’ jobs. Some are manage businesses; some are lawyers; others are programmers, or designers of World Wide Web pages; and some work in services that help other people.
