VIII.Read the following passage and choose the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Elephants on the coast of Thailand are acting strange. They stamp their feet and motion toward the
hills. The sea draws back from the beaches. Fish flop in the mud. Suddenly, a huge wave appears. This is
no ordinary wave. It is a tsunami!
Tsunami waves are larger and faster than normal surface waves. A tsunami wave can travel as fast
as a jet plane and can be as tall as a ten-storey building. For a tsunami to occur, there must be some kind
of force that causes the ocean water to become displaced. Most tsunamis are caused by underwater
earthquakes. However, volcanoes, landslides, large icebergs, and even meteorites are capable of causing
one of these mighty waves. Tsunamis are extremely powerful. Because tsunami waves are so strong, they
can kill people, damage property, and completely ruin an ecosystem in just one hour.
Scientists have no way of predicting when a tsunami will hit. However, if a powerful enough
earthquake occurs, scientists can issue a warning or a watch. A warning means that a tsunami will very
likely hit soon. A watch means that conditions are favorable for a tsunami. When people are notified about
a watch or a warning, they have more time to prepare. It is best not to get caught unaware when a tsunami
is on the way!
Question 19: Which does not cause a tsunami?
A. meteorites B. mudslides C. volcanic eruptions D. earthquakes
Question 20: What is this passage mostly about?
A. Scientists who predict tsunami waves. B. How to prepare for tsunamis.
C. Similarities and differences between wave types. D. Causes and effects of tsunamis.
Question 21: Tsunamis cause so much destruction because they .
A. can be as tall as a ten-storey building B. can be predicted by scientists
C. break on the coast, unlike normal waves D. are caused by volcanoes, landslides and meteorites
Question 22: Why are the elephants acting strange?
A. They are not used to seeing fish. B. They see the ocean drawing back from the beaches.
C. They can sense something out of the ordinary.D. They dislike wading into the ocean.
