But as oil prices spiked to a near­ record $49 a barrel Thursday up from $33 in spring Americans’ reliance on the sticky stuff is being felt more acutely than at any time since the early 1980s.

Read the texts given below. Decide if the sentences (1–5) are T (True) or F (False), according to what the text says.

 

United Kingdom

 

The area around the famous 4,000 year old monument of Stonehenge comes alive on the morning of the summer solstice, as thousands of people come to watch the sun rise over Salisbury Plain. People dance around the standing stones all night until the light of the rising sun touches the monument’s stones, then loud cheers ring out.

 

Sweden

 

In Sweden, the summer solstice is an important festival. In the north, during the summer months, the sun does not set at all! There is daylight 24 hours a day! At Midsummer, many people leave their city dwellings to go into the countryside and commune with nature. They light bonfires and there is lots of singing and dancing around a midsummer pole. People decorate their homes with flowers and birch branches. Girls go to the fields to gather seven different kinds of wild flowers and grasses. They believe that if they sleep with these tucked under their pillow, they will dream of their future husband.

Poland

In Poland, especially in the Eastern Pomeranian and Kashubian regions of northern Poland, Midsummer is celebrated on June 23^rd. People dress like dangerous sea pirates, and girls throw wreaths made of flowers into the Baltic Sea. The Midsummer Day celebration starts at about 8 pm and lasts all night until sunrise.

 

Estonia

 

Estonians celebrate “Jaaniohtu” (“John’s Night” in English) with bonfires on the eve of the summer solstice. On the islands of Saaremaa and Hiiumaa, old fishing boats may be burnt. On Jaaniohtu, Estonians all around the country will gather with their families, or at larger events, to celebrate this important day with singing and dancing as Estonians have done for centuries. The celebrations that accompany Jaaniohtu are the largest and most important of the year.
