Not everyone agrees with Reese's view, though Many people think that news sources have a responsibility to provide news that is helpful to people People need to know about issues or problems in today's society Then they are better able to make informed decisions about things that affect their daily lives Reese said that HappyNews is not trying to stop people from learning about issues or problems HappyNews is just trying to provide a balanced picture of today's world By the end of its first month online, HappyNews had more than 70,000 unique readers About 60 percent of those readers were women Something else unique makes HappyNews different from any of the other news or information websites that are on the Internet Unlike many other websites, HappyNews gets fan mail from its readers on a daily basis Question 31 Which of the following is the best title for this passage?

A improving B explaining C editing D worsening Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on you answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions While some forecasting methods had limited success predicting the 1997 El Nino a few months in advance, the Columbia University researchers say their method can predict large El Nino events up to two years in advance That would be a boon for governments, farmers and others seeking to plan for the droughts and heavy rainfall El Nino can produce in various parts of the world Using a computer, the researchers matched sea-surface temperatures to later El Nino occurrences between 1980 and 2000 and were then able to anticipate El Nino events dating back to 1857, using prior sea-surface temperatures The results were reported in the latest issue of the journal Nature The researchers say their method is not perfect, but Biyan Weare, a meteorologist at the University of California, Davis, who was not involved in the work, said it "suggests El Nino is indeed predictable." "This will probably convince others to search around more for even better methods," he added The new method "makes it possible to predict El Nino at long lead times," said lead author Dake Chen of Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory "Other models also use sea-surface temperatures, but they have not looked as far back because they need other data, which is only available for recent decades," Chen said The ability to predict the warming and cooling of the Pacific is of immense importance The 1997 El Nino, for example, caused an estimated $20 billion in damage worldwide, offset by beneficial effects in other areas, said David Anderson, of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts in Reading, England The 1877 El Nino, meanwhile, coincided with a failure of the Indian monsoon and a famine that killed perhaps 40 million in India and China, prompting the development of seasonal forecasting, Anderson said When El Nino hit in 1991 and 1997, 200 million people were affected by flooding in China alone, according to a 2002 United Nations report While predicting smaller El Nino events remains tricky, the ability to predict larger ones should be increased to at least a year if the new method is confirmed, Anderson wrote in an accompanying commentary El Nino tends to develop between April and June and reaches its peak between December and February The warming tends to last between and 12 months and occurs every two to seven years Chen said the new forecasting method does not predict any major El Nino events in the next two years, although a weak warming toward the end of this year is possible Đăng kí PRO3M/COMBO CẤP TỐC/PRO3MPLUS – CHINH PHỤC ĐIỂM 9+ MÔN TIẾNG ANH CÙNG CÔ VŨ MAI PHƯƠNG PRO 3M/COMBO CẤP TỐC/PRO 3MPLUS – ÔN LUYỆN TỒN DIỆN CHO KÌ THI TỐT NGHIỆP THPT QUỐC GIA Theo dõi Page : Học Tiếng Anh cô Vũ Mai Phương để học GIỎI TIẾNG ANH HƠN ngày cô Question 36 The word "tricky" in paragraph is closest in meaning to A difficult B normal C cunning D common Question 37 Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
