Read the following passage and choose the answer to each of the questions
Quite different from storm surges are the giant sea waves called tsunamis, which derive their name from the
Japanese expression for “high water in a harbor.” These waves are also referred to by the general public as tidal waves,
although they have relatively little to do with tides. Scientists often referred to them as seismic sea waves, far more
appropriate in that they do result from undersea seismic activity.
Tsunamis are caused when the sea bottom suddenly moves, during an underwater earthquake or volcano for
example, and the water above the moving earth is suddenly displaced. This sudden shift of water sets off a series of waves.
These waves can travel great distances at speeds close to 700 kilometers per hour. In the open ocean, tsunamis have little
noticeable amplitude, often no more than one or two meters. It is when they hit the shallow waters near the coast that they
increase in height, possibly up to 40 meters.
Tsunamis often occur in the Pacific because the Pacific is an area of heavy seismic activity. Two areas of the
Pacific well accustomed to the threat of tsunamis are Japan and Hawaii. Because the seismic activity that causes tsunamis
in Japan often occurs on the ocean bottom quite close to the islands, the tsunamis that hit Japan often come with little
warning and can, therefore, prove disastrous. Most of the tsunamis that hit the Hawaiian Islands, however, originate
thousands of miles away near the coast of Alaska, so these tsunamis have a much greater distance to travel and the
inhabitants of Hawaii generally have time for warning of their imminent arrival.
Tsunamis are certainly not limited to Japan and Hawaii. In 1755, Europe experienced a calamitous tsunami, when
movement along the fault lines near the Azores caused a massive tsunami to sweep onto the Portuguese coast and flood the
heavily populated area around Lisbon. The greatest tsunami on record occurred on the other side of the world in 1883
when the Krakatoa volcano underwent a massive explosion, sending waves more than 30 meters high onto nearby
Indonesian islands; the tsunami from this volcano actually traveled around the world and was witnessed as far away as the
English Channel.
51: The paragraph preceding this passage most probably discusses
A. tides B. storm surges C. tidal waves D. underwater earthquakes
52: According to the passage, all of the following are true about tidal waves EXCEPT that
A. they are caused by sudden changes in high and low tides B. this terminology is not used by the scientific community
C. they are the same as tsunamis D. they refer to the same phenomenon as seismic sea waves
53: The word “displaced” in line 7 is closest in meaning to
A. not pleased B. located C. moved D. filtered
54: It can be inferred from the passage that tsunamis
A. are often identified by ships on the ocean B. generally reach heights greater than 40 meters
C. are far more dangerous on the coast than in the open ocean D. cause severe damage in the middle of the ocean
55: In line 10, water that is “shallow” is NOT
A. deep B. coastal C. tidal D. clear
56: A main difference between tsunamis in Japan and in Hawaii is that tsunamis in Japan are more likely to
A. come from greater distances B. originate in Alaska C. arrive without warning D. be less of a problem
57: The possessive “their” in line 18 refers to
A. the Hawaiian Islands B. these tsunamis C. thousands of miles D. the inhabitants of Hawaii
58: A “calamitous” tsunami, in line 20, is one that is
A. disastrous B. expected C. extremely calm D. at fault

A. was filmed as it was happening B. occurred before efficient records were kept
C. was not as strong as the tsunami in Lisbon D. might not be the greatest tsunami ever

Read the following passage and choose the answer to each of the questions from 61 to 70.
Esperanto is what is called a planned, or artificial, language. It was created more than a century ago by Polish eye doctor
Ludwik Lazar Zamenhof. Zamenhof believed that a common language would help to alleviate some of the
misunderstandings among cultures. giaoandethitienganh.info
In Zamenhof’s first attempt at a universal language, he tried to create a language that was as uncomplicated as possible.
This first language included words such as ab, ac, ba, eb, be, and ce. This did not result in a workable language in that
these monosyllabic words, though short, were not easy to understand or to retain.
Next, Zamenhof tried a different way of constructing a simplified language. He made the words in his language sound
like words that people already knew, but he simplified the grammar tremendously. One example of how he simplified the
language can be seen in the suffixes: all nouns in this language end in o, as in the noun amiko, which means “friend”, and
all adjectives end in -a, as in the adjective bela, which means “pretty”. Another example of the simplified language can be
seen in the prefix mal-, which makes a word opposite in meaning; the word malamiko therefore means “enemy”, and the
word malbela therefore means “ugly” in Zamenhof’s language.
In 1887, Zamenhof wrote a description of this language and published it. He used a pen name, Dr. Esperanto, when signing
the book. He selected the name Esperanto because this word means “a person who hopes” in his language. Esperanto clubs began
popping up throughout Europe, and by 1950, Esperanto had spread from Europe to America and Asia.
In 1905, the First World Congress of Esperanto took place in France, with approximately700 attendees from 20 different
countries. Congresses were held annually for nine years, and 4,000 attendees were registered for the Tenth World
Esperanto Congress scheduled for 1914, when World War I erupted and forced its cancellation.
 Esperanto has had its ups and downs in the period since World War I. Today, years after it was introduced, it is
estimated that perhaps a quarter of a million people are fluent in it. This may seem like a large number, but it is really quite
small when compared with the billion English speakers and billion Mandarin Chinese speakers in today’s world. Current
advocates would like to see its use grow considerably and are taking steps to try to make this happen.
61: The topic of this passage is
A. a language developed in the last few years B. one man’s efforts to create a universal language
