Tsunamis, whose name derives from the Japanese expression for ‘high wave in a harbour’, are
giant sea waves These waves are quite different from storm surges They are also referred to by the
general public as tidal waves although they have nothing to do with tides Scientists often refer
to them as seismic sea waves, which is far more appropriate because they are often the result of
undersea seismic activity
Tsunamis can be caused when the sea floor suddenly moves, during an underwater earthquake or
volcano, 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 kilometres
per hour In the open ocean, tsunami waves are not very high, often no more than one or two
metres It is when they hit the shallow waters near the coast that they increase in height, possibly
up to 40 metres
22
The passage mainly discusses
All of the following is true about tidal waves EXCEPT
‘4 they are as another name for tsunamis
5 they are caused by sudden changes in high and low tides

first telephone He was born on March 3", 1847 in Edinburgh,
Scotland When he was 23, Bell emigrated to Canada with his
parents and the next year moved to the United States to teach
deaf-mute children He took great interest in transmitting the
human voice With his colleague Thomas Watson, Bell worked
very hard on the experimentation to invent devices such as the
harmonic telegraph (used to send multiple messages over a single
wire) and phonautograpb (used to draw the shape of the sound
waves) The first telephone communication was said to have
happened between Bell and Watson in 1876 while Bell was at one
end of the line, and Watson worked on the telephone in another
room The first transmitted words were, ‘Mr Watson, come here
¡, Alexander Graham Bell is Scottish
+ He spent all his life in Canada
4 He wanted to create a device that can transmit human voices
5, He was able to succeed right from the first experiment
