Read the passage and answer questions 11-15.
Petroleum is one of the most valuable natural resources that is found under the ground or the sea and is used to produce petrol, paraffin, diesel oil, etc. Some people call petroleum black gold, but it may be better described as the lifeblood of industrialized countries. Fuels made from petroleum provide power for automobiles, airplanes, factories, farm equipment, trucks, trains and ships. They also generate heat and electricity for many houses and business places.
Altogether, petroleum provides nearly half the energy used in the world.
In addition to fuels, thousands of other products are made from petroleum. These products range from paving materials to drip-dry fabrics and from engine grease to cosmetics. Petroleum is used to make such items as aspirins, carpets, curtains, detergents, phonograph records, plastic toys and toothpaste.
Although we use a huge variety of products made from petroleum, few people ever see the substance itself. Most of it comes from deep within the earth as a liquid called crude oil. Petroleum is also found in solid form in certain rocks and sands.
Petroleum is often referred to simply as oil and it is found in rocks beneath the earth's surface.
People have used petroleum for thousands of years. But few people recognized its full value until the 1800's, when the kerosene lamp and the automobile were invented.
There are so many countries in the world, but not all of them are rich in oil.
