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.
Quite different from storm surges are the giant sea waves called tsunamis, which derive then name from the Japanese
expression for "high water in a harbour." 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 kilometres per hour. In the open ocean, tsunamis have little
noticeable amplitude, 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. 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 metres high onto nearby Indonesian islands; the tsunami from this volcano actually travelled around the
world and was witnessed as far away as the English Channel.

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.
Quite different from storm surges are the giant sea waves called tsunamis, which derive then name from the Japanese
expression for "high water in a harbour." 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 kilometres per hour. In the open ocean, tsunamis have little
noticeable amplitude, 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. 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 metres high onto nearby Indonesian islands; the tsunami from this volcano actually travelled around the
world and was witnessed as far away as the English Channel.
Question 43: The paragraph preceding this passage most probably discusses?
A. storm surges
B. tidal waves
C. underwater earthquakes
D. tides
Question 44: From the expression "on record" in the last paragraph, it can be inferred that the tsunami that accompanied
the Krakatoa volcano.......
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
Question 45: 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. they refer to the same phenomenon as seismic sea waves
C. they are the same as tsunamis
D. this terminology is not used by the scientific community
Question 46: A "calamitous" tsunami, in paragraph 4, is one that is......
A. at fault
B. disastrous
C. expected
D. extremely calm
Question 47: The passage suggests that the tsunami resulting from the Krakatoa volcano......
A. was unobserved outside of the Indonesian islands

B. was far more destructive close to the source than far away
C. caused volcanic explosions in the English Channel

Quite different from storm surges are the giant sea waves called tsunamis, which derive then name from the Japanese
expression for "high water in a harbour." 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 kilometres per hour. In the open ocean, tsunamis have little
noticeable amplitude, 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. 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 metres high onto nearby Indonesian islands; the tsunami from this volcano actually travelled around the
world and was witnessed as far away as the English Channel.
Question 8: A main difference between tsunamis in Japan and in Hawaii is that tsunamis in Japan are more likely to.......
A. arrive without warning

the Krakatoa volcano.......
A. occurred before efficient records were kept
B. was not as strong as the tsunami in Lisbon

THE CENSUS COUNTS!
Every ten years there is a national census to count the number of people. The census counts the number of people in each
area, the number of men and women, their ages, their profession, then family size and status. The census is the only way to
count everyone. Its results are used by a great many people and are available to everyone. The census is useful; it helps to
work out present and future needs for housing by seeing how many people are housed now, or the sizes and ages of then
families. In addition, the size of annual grants made by the Government to public services depends largely on the numbers
and needs of people in the area provided by the census. Furthermore, the census shows how many people have moved from
one area to another and how the number of the local work force is changing.
The census is taken in order to provide the figures about the nation as a whole. It does not give information about any
named person, family or household. Therefore, names and addresses are needed on the forms but they are not fed into the
computer. After the census, the forms with the names on are locked away and will not be released to anyone outside the

each of the questions.
THE CENSUS COUNTS!
Every ten years there is a national census to count the number of people. The census counts the number of people in each
area, the number of men and women, their ages, their profession, then family size and status. The census is the only way to
count everyone. Its results are used by a great many people and are available to everyone. The census is useful; it helps to
work out present and future needs for housing by seeing how many people are housed now, or the sizes and ages of then
families. In addition, the size of annual grants made by the Government to public services depends largely on the numbers
and needs of people in the area provided by the census. Furthermore, the census shows how many people have moved from
one area to another and how the number of the local work force is changing.
The census is taken in order to provide the figures about the nation as a whole. It does not give information about any
named person, family or household. Therefore, names and addresses are needed on the forms but they are not fed into the
computer. After the census, the forms with the names on are locked away and will not be released to anyone outside the
Census Office for 100 years. The answers people give on their census forms will be treated in strict confidence. Everyone

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.
Quite different from storm surges are the giant sea waves called tsunamis, which derive then name from the Japanese
expression for "high water in a harbour." 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 kilometres per hour. In the open ocean, tsunamis have little
noticeable amplitude, 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. 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 metres high onto nearby Indonesian islands; the tsunami from this volcano actually travelled around the
world and was witnessed as far away as the English Channel.
Question 43: 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 metres
C. are far more dangerous on the coast than in the open ocean
D. cause severe damage in the middle of the ocean
Question 44: A "calamitous" tsunami, in paragraph 4, is one that is......
A. at fault
B. disastrous
C. expected
D. extremely calm
Question 45: From the expression "on record" in the last paragraph, it can be inferred that the tsunami that accompanied
the Krakatoa volcano.......

A. might not be the greatest tsunami ever
B. was not as strong as the tsunami in Lisbon
C. occurred before efficient records were kept
D. was filmed as it was happening
Question 46: 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. they refer to the same phenomenon as seismic sea waves
C. they are the same as tsunamis


D. this terminology is not used by the scientific community
Question 47: The possessive "their" in paragraph 3 refers to.......
A. the Hawaiian Islands
B. these tsunamis
C. the inhabitants of Hawaii
D. thousands of miles
Question 48: A main difference between tsunamis in Japan and in Hawaii is that tsunamis in Japan are more likely to.......
A. be less of a problem
B. originate in Alaska
C. arrive without warning
D. come from greater distances
Question 49: The paragraph preceding this passage most probably discusses?
A. storm surges
B. tides
C. underwater earthquakes
D. tidal waves
Question 50: The passage suggests that the tsunami resulting from the Krakatoa volcano......
A. caused volcanic explosions in the English Channel
B. resulted in little damage
C. was unobserved outside of the Indonesian islands

D. was far more destructive close to the source than far away
