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.
There are a number of natural disasters that can strike across the globe. Two that are
frequently linked to one another are earthquakes and tsunamis. Both of them can cause a great
amount of devastation when they hit. However, tsunamis are the direct result of earthquakes
and cannot happen without them.
The Earth has three main parts. They are the crust, the mantle, and the core. The crust is
the outer layer of the Earth. It is not a single piece of land. Instead, it is comprised of a number
of plates. There are a few enormous plates and many smaller ones. These plates essentially
rest upon the mantle, which is fluid. As a result, the plates are in constant - yet slow - motion.
The plates may move away from or towards other plates. In some cases, they collide violently
with the plates adjoining them. The movement of the plates causes tension in the rock. Over a

long time, this tension may build up. When it is released, an earthquake happens.
Tens of thousands of earthquakes happen every year. The vast majority are so small that
only scientific instruments can perceive them. Others are powerful enough that people can
feel them, yet they cause little harm or damage. More powerful earthquakes, however, can
cause buildings, bridges, and other structures to collapse. They may additionally injure and skill
thousands of people and might even cause the land to change it appearance.
Since most of the Earth's surface is water, numerous earthquakes happen beneath the planet's
oceans. Underwater earthquakes cause the seafloor to move. This results in the displacement
of water in the ocean. When this occurs, a tsunami may form. This is a wave that forms on the
surface and moves in all directions from the place where the earthquake happened. A tsunami
moves extremely quickly and can travel thousnads of kilometres. As it approaches land, the
water near the coast gets sucked out to sea. This causes the tsunamis to increase in height.
Minutes later, the tsunami arrives. A large tsunami - one more than ten meters in height - can
travel far inland. As it does that, it can flood the land, destroy human settlements, and kill large
numbers of people.

A. It is thicker on land than it is under the water.
B. The mantle beneath it keeps it from moving too much.
C. It is the smallest of the Earth's three layers.
D. There many separate pieces that make it up.
25. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in paragraph 3 about earthquakes?
A. How many people they typically kill
B. How often powerful ones take place
C. What kind of damage they can cause
D. How severe the majority of them are

According to airline industry statistics, almost 90 percent of airline accidents are survivable
or partially survivable. But passengers can increase their chances of survival by learning and
following certain tips. Experts say that you should read and listen to safety instructions before
take-of and ask questions if you have uncertainties. You should fasten your seat belt low on
your hips and as tightly as possible. Of course, you should also know how the release
mechanism of your belt operates. During take-of and landings you are advised to keep your
feet flat on the floor.
Before take-of you should locate the nearest exit and an alternative exit and count the
rows of seat between you and the exits so that you can find them in the dark if necessary. In
the event that you are forewarned of the possible accident, you should put your hands on your
ankles and keep your head down until the plane come to complete stop.
If smoke is present in the cabin, you should keep your head low and cover your face with
napkins, towels, or clothing. If possible, wet these for added protection against smoke
inhalation. To evacuate as quickly as possible, follow crew command and do not take personal
belongings with you. Do not jump on escape slides before they are fully inflated and when
you jump, do so with your arms and legs extended in front of you. When you get to the ground,
you should move away from the plane as quickly as possible, and never smoke near the
wreckage.
