Read the passage and choose the option that best answers the question or completes the sentence:
Every drop of water in the ocean, even in the deepest parts, responds to the forces that create thetides No other force that affects the sea is so strong Compared with the tides, the waves created by
the wind are surface movements felt no more than a hundred fathoms below the surface The
currents also seldom involve more than the upper several hundred fathoms despite their impressivesweep
The tides are a response of the waters of the ocean to the pull of the Moon and the more distantSun In theory, there is a gravitational attraction between the water and even the outermost star of
the universe In reality, however, the pull of remote stars is so slight as to be obliterated by the
control of the Moon and, to a lesser extent, the Sun Just as the Moon rises later each day by fifty
minutes, on the average, so, in most places, the time of high tide is correspondingly later each day.
And as the Moon waxes and wanes in its monthly cycle, so the height of the tide varies The tidalmovements are strongest when the Moon is a sliver in the sky, and when it is full These are thehighest flood tides and the lowest ebb tides of the lunar month and are called the spring tides Atthese times, the Sun, Moon, and Earth are nearly in line and the pull of the two heavenly bodies isadded together to bring the water high on the beaches, to send its surf upward against the sea cliffs,and to draw a high tide into the harbors Twice each month, at the quarters of the Moon, when the

Read the following passage on climate change, and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 67 to 76.
Experts in climatology and other scientists are becoming extremely concerned about thechanges to our climate which are taking place Admittedly, climate changes have occurred on ourplanet before For example, there have been several ice ages or glacial periods
These climatic changes, however, were different from the modern ones in that they occurredgradually and, as far as we know, naturally The changes currently being monitored are said to bethe result not of natural causes, but of human activity Furthermore, the rate of change is becoming
alarmingly rapid.
The major problem is that the planet appears to be warming up According to some experts, thiswarming process, known as global warming, is occurring at a rate unprecedented in the last 10,000years The implications for the planet are very serious Rising global temperatures could give rise tosuch ecological disasters as extremely high increases in the incidence of flooding and of droughts.These in turn could have a harmful effect on agriculture
It is thought that this unusual warming of the Earth has been caused by so-called greenhousegases, such as carbon dioxide, being emitted into the atmosphere by car engines and modernindustrial processes, for example Such gases not only add to the pollution of the atmosphere, butalso create a greenhouse effect, by which the heat of the sun is trapped This leads to the warming
up of the planet
Politicians are also concerned about climate change and there are now regular summits on thesubject, attended by representatives from around 180 of the world’s industrialized countries Of
these summits, the most important took place in Kyoto in Japan in 1997 There it was agreed that
the most industrialized countries would try to reduce the volume of greenhouse gas emissions andwere given targets for this reduction of emissions
It was also suggested that more forests should be planted to create so-called sinks to absorbgreenhouse gases At least part of the problem of rapid climate change has been caused by too
drastic deforestation.

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 following questions:
The response of most animals when suddenly faced with a predator is to flee Natural selection has acted
in a variety of ways in different species to enhance the efficacy of the behaviors, known as "flight
behaviors" or escape behaviors that are used by prey in fleeing predators Perhaps the most direct
adaptation is enhanced light speed and agility
Trang 25Adaptations for speed, however, are likely to require sacrifices biter attributes, so we might expect onlysome species to adopt a simple fast flight strategy
Another way of enhancing the effectiveness of flight is to move in an erratic and unpredictable way.Many species, like ptarmigans, snipes, and various antelopes and gazelles, flee from predators in acharacteristic zigzag fashion Rapid unexpected changes in flight direction make it difficult for apredator to track prey
In some species, like the European hare, erratic zigzag flight might be more effective in the presence of
predators that are faster than they are and straight light more effective against predators that are slower.One observation that supports this suggestion is the recorded tendency for slow-flying black-beadedgulls, which are normally able to escape predators by means of direct flight, to show frequent changes
in flight direction when they spot a peregrine falcon (peregrines are adept at capturing flying birds)
A quite different way of enhancing escape by flight is to use so-called "flash" behavior Here, the
alarmed prey flees for a short distance and then "freezes." Some predators are unexcited by immobile
prey, and a startling flash of activity followed by immobility may confuse them "Flash" behavior is
used in particular by frogs and orthopteran insects, which make conspicuous jumps and then sit
immobile In some species, "flash" behavior is enhanced by the display of bright body markings Goodexamples of insects with colorful markings are the red and yellow underwing moths At rest, bothspecies are a cryptic brown color When they fly, however, brightly colored hind wings are exposed,which render the moths highly conspicuous Similarly, some frogs and lizards have brightly coloredpatches or frills that may serve a 'flash" function when they move quickly Some species even appear topossess "flash" sounds The loud buzzing and clicking noises made by some grasshoppers when theyjump may serve to emphasize the movement
55 The word "enhance" is closest in meaning to _.
56 The description of the prey's movement as "zigzag" suggests that the movement is _.
57 It can be inferred from the passage that the European hare _.
A is faster than most of its predators B is preyed upon by gulls and falcons
C is more likely to escape using straight flight D is capable of two kinds of flight
58 The behaviour of black-beaded gulls is most comparable to that of _.
A European hares B gazelles C peregrine falcons D frogs
59 It can be inferred that black-beaded gulls change direction when they spot a peregrine falcon for which of the following reasons?
