Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 34 to 38.
Because the low latitudes of the Earth, the areas near the equator, receive more heat than the latitudes near the poles, and because the nature of heat is to expand and move, heat is transported from the tropics to the middle and high latitudes Some of this heat is moved by winds and some by ocean currents, and some gets stored in the atmosphere in the form of latent heat The term "latent heat" refers to the energy that has to be
used to convert liquid water to water vapor We know that if we warm a pan of water on a stove, it will
evaporate, or turn into vapor, faster than if it is allowed to sit at room temperature We also know that if we hang wet clothes outside in the summertime, they will dry faster than in winter, when the temperature is lower The energy used in both cases to change liquid water to water vapor is supplied by heat - supplied by the stove in the first case and by the Sun in the latter case This energy is not lost It is stored as vapor in the atmosphere as latent heat Eventually, the water stored as vapor in the atmosphere will condense to liquid again, and the energy will be released to the atmosphere
In the atmosphere, a large portion of the Sun's incoming energy is used to evaporate water, primarily in the tropical oceans Scientists have tried to quantify this proportion of the Sun's energy By analysing temperature, water vapor, and wind data around the globe, they have estimated the quantity to be about 90 watts per square meter, or nearly 30 percent of the Sun's energy Once this latent heat is stored within the
atmosphere, it can be transported, primarily to higher latitudes, by prevailing, large-scale winds Or it can be
transported vertically to higher levels in the atmosphere, where it forms clouds and subsequent storms, which then release the energy back to the atmosphere
34 The passage mainly discusses how heat _.
A is transported by ocean currents
B can be measured and analysed by scientists
C moves about the Earth's equator
D is transformed and transported in the Earth's atmosphere
35 The passage mentions that the tropics differ from the Earth's polar regions in which of the following
ways?
A The strength of their oceanic currents
B The strength of their large-scale winds
C The height of cloud formation in the atmosphere
Trang 5D The amount of heat they receive from the Sun
36 The word "convert" is closest in meaning to _.
37 According to the passage, 30 percent of the Sun's incoming energy .
A never leaves the upper atmosphere
B gets stored as latent heat
C is stored in clouds in the lower latitudes
D is transported by ocean currents
38 The underlined word "it" in paragraph 2 refers to .
A latent heat B the atmosphere C square meter D the Sun's energy
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 39 to 45.
Being aware of one's own emotions - recognizing and acknowledging feelings as they happen - is at the very heart of Emotional Intelligence And this awareness encompasses not only moods but also thoughts about those moods People who are able to monitor their feelings as they arise are less likely to be ruled by them and are thus better able to manage their emotions
Managing emotions does not mean suppressing them; or giving free rein to every feeling Psychologist Daniel Goleman, who has contributed to popularize the notion of Emotional Intelligence, insisted that the goal is balance and that every feeling has value and significance As Goleman said, "A life without passion would be a dull wasteland of neutrality, cut off and isolated from the richness of life itself." Thus, we manage our emotions by expressing them in an appropriate manner Emotions can also be managed by engaging in activities that cheer us up, soothe our hurts, or reassure us when we feel anxious
Clearly, awareness and management of emotions are not independent For instance, you might think that individuals who seem to experience their feelings more intensely than others would be less able to manage
them However, a critical component of awareness of emotions is the ability to assign meaning to them - to
know why we are experiencing a particular feeling or mood Psychologists have found that, among individuals who experience intense emotions, individual differences in the ability to assign meaning to those
feelings predict differences in the ability to manage them In other words, if two individuals are intensely
angry, the one who is better able to understand why he or she is angry will also be better able to manage the anger
Self-motivation refers to strong emotional self-control, which enables a person to get moving
and pursue worthy goals, persist at tasks even when frustrated, and resist the temptation to act on impulse
Resisting impulsive behavior is, according to Goleman, "the root of all emotional self-control."
Of all the attributes of Emotional Intelligence, the ability to postpone immediate gratification and to persist in working toward some greater future gain is most closely related to success - whether one is trying to build a
Trang 6business, get a college degree, or even stay on a diet.
39 Which of the following can we infer from paragraph 1?
A People who can manage their emotions successfully will be controlled by them.
B If people pay attention to their feelings, they will not be able to manage them.
C If people pay attention to their feelings, they can control their emotions better.
D Some people can have much better understanding of their feelings than others.
40 According to the passage, people should be aware of their emotions so that they can _.
A manage their emotions appropriately
B explain their emotions to others
C stop feeling angry and overthinking
D experience feelings more intensively
41 All of the followings are mentioned in paragraph 2 about our emotions EXCEPT _.
A emotions are part of a satisfying life
B we should ignore some feelings
C we can manage our emotions
D every feeling is equally important
42 The word "critical" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .
43 The word "them" in paragraph 3 refers to _.
A intense emotions B individuals C individual differences D psychologists
44 In paragraph 3, the author explains the concept of awareness and management of emotions by _.
A giving an example of why people get angry
B comparing how two people might respond to an intense emotion
C explaining why some people are not aware of their emotions
D describing how people learn to control their emotions
45 The word "pursue" in paragraph 4 mostly means _.
A find out about something B improve or develop something
C try to achieve something D be involved in something
