The Planets of Jupiter
The largest of the giant gas planets, Jupiter, with a volume 1,300 times greater than Earth’s, contains more than twice the mass of all the other planets combined It is thought to be a gaseous and
fluid planet without solid surfaces, Had it been somewhat more massive, Jupiter might have attained
internal temperatures as high as the ignition point for nuclear reactions, and it would have flamed as a star in its own right Jupiter and the other giant planets are of a low-density type quite distinct from
the terrestrial planets: they are composed predominantly of such substances as hydrogen, helium,
ammonia, and methane, unlike terrestrial planets Much of Jupiter’s interior might be in the form of liquid, metallic hydrogen, Normally, hydrogen is a gas, but under pressures of millions of kilograms per square centimeter, which exist in the deep interior of Jupiter, the hydrogen atoms might lock together
to form a liquid with the properties of a metal Some scientists believe that the innermost core of Jupiter might be rocky, or metallic like the core of Earth
Jupiter rotates very fast, once every 9.8 hours As a result, its clouds, which are composed largely of frozen and liquid ammonia, have been whipped into alternating dark and bright bands that
circle the planet at different speeds in different latitudes Jupiter’s puzzling Great Red Spot changes
size as it hovers in the Southern Hemisphere Scientists speculate it might be a gigantic hurricane, which because of its large size (the Earth could easily fit inside it), lasts for hundreds of years
Jupiter gives off twice as much heat as it receives from the Sun Perhaps this is primeval heat or
beat generated by the continued gravitational contraction of the planet Another star like characteristic
of Jupiter is its sixteen natural satellites, which, like a miniature model of the Solar System, decrease in density with distance from rocky moons close to Jupiter to icy moons farther away If Jupiter were about 70 times more massive, it would have become a star, Jupiter is the best-preserved sample of the early solar nebula, and with its satellites, might contain the most important clues about the origin of the Solar System
Question 35 The word attained in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _.
Question 36 The word they in paragraph 1 refers to _.
A nuclear reactions B giant planets C terrestrial D substances
Question 37 According to the passage, hydrogen can become a metallic-like liquid when it is
_
Question 38 According to the passage, some scientists believe Jupiter and Earth are similar in that
they both have _
A solid surfaces B similar atmospheres C similar masses D metallic cores
Question 39 The clouds surrounding Jupiter are mostly composed of _.
Question 40 It can be inferred from the passage that the appearance of alternating bands circling
Jupiter is caused by _
A the Great Red Spot B heat from the Sun
C the planet’s fast rotation D Storms from the planet’s Southern Hemisphere
Question 41 The author uses the word puzzling in paragraph 2 to suggest that the Great Red Spot is
_
A the only spot of its kind B not well understood
C among the largest of such spots D a problem for the planet’s continued existence
Question 42 Paragraph 3 supports which of the following conclusions?
A Jupiter gives off twice as much heat as the Sun
B Jupiter has a weaker gravitational force than the other planets
C Scientists believe that Jupiter was once a star
Trang 4D Scientists might learn about the beginning of the Solar System by Studying Jupiter.
Question 43 Why does the author mention primeval heat in paragraph 3?
A To provide evidence that Jupiter is older than the Sun
B To provide evidence that Jupiter is older than the other planets
C To suggest a possible explanation for the number of satellites that Jupiter has
D To suggest a possible source of the quantity of heat that Jupiter gives off
Question 44 Which of the following statements is supported by the passage?
A If Jupiter had fewer satellites, it would be easier for scientists to study the planet itself
B If Jupiter had had more mass, it would have developed internal nuclear reactions
C If Jupiter had been smaller, it would have become a terrestrial planet
D if Jupiter were larger, it would give off much less heat

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.
Recent technological advances in manned and unmanned vehicles, along with breakthroughs in satellite technology and computer equipment, have overcome some of the limitations of divers and diving equipment for scientists doing research on the great oceans of the world Without a vehicle,
divers often became sluggish, and their mental concentration was severely limited Because undersea
pressure affects their speech organs, communication among divers has always been difficult or
Trang 5impossible But today, most oceanographers avoid the use of vulnerable human divers, preferring to reduce the risk to human life and make direct observations by means of instruments that are lowered into the ocean, from samples take from the water, or from photographs made by orbiting satellites Direct observations of the ocean floor can be made not only by divers but also by deep-diving submarines in the water and even by the technology of sophisticated aerial photography from vantage
points above the surface of more than seven miles and cruise at depths of fifteen thousand feet In addition, radio-equipped buoys can be operated by remote control in order to transmit information
back to land-based laboratories via satellite Particularly important for ocean study are data about water temperature, currents, and weather Satellite photographs can show the distribution of sea ice, oil slicks, and cloud formations over the ocean, Maps created from satellite pictures can represent the temperature and the color of the ocean’s surface, enabling researchers to study the ocean currents from laboratories on dry land Furthermore, computers help oceanographers to collect, organize, and analyze data from submarines and satellites By creating a model of the ocean’s movement and characteristics, scientists can predict the patterns and possible effects of the ocean on the environment
Recently, many oceanographers have been relying more on satellites and computers than on research ships or even submarine vehicles because they can supply a greater range of information
more quickly and more effectively Some of humankind’s most serious problems, especially those
concerning energy and food, may be solved with the help of observations made possible by this new technology

Question 57 This passage suggests that the successful exploration of the ocean depends upon

C radios that divers use to communicate D the limitations of diving equipment
Question 58 Divers have had problems in communicating underwater because .
A they did not pronounce clearly C the pressure affected their speech organs
B the water destroyed their speech organs D the vehicles they used have not been perfected
Question 59 The word “cruise” could best be replaced by .
A travel at a constant speed B function without problems
C stay in communication D remain still
Question 60 Undersea vehicles .
A have the same limitations that divers have
B are too small for a man to fit inside
C make direct observations of the ocean floor
