and the gravitational attraction of the moon acting upon the earth’s waters Although the moon is only 238, 852 miles from the earth, compared with the sun’s much greater distance of 92,956,000 miles, the moon’s closer distance outranks its much smaller mass, and thus the moon’s tideraising force is more than twice that of the sun The tide-generating forces of the moon and sun cause a maximum accumulation of the waters of the oceans at two opposite positions on the earth’s surface At the same time, compensating amounts of water are drawn from all points 90 degrees away from these tidal bulges As the earth rotates, a sequence of two high tides and two low tides is produced each day Successive high tides occur on an average of 12.4 hours apart High tide at any given location occurs when the moon is overhead and low tide when it is at either horizon The highest and lowest levels of high tide, called spring tide and neap tide, each occur twice in every lunar month of about 27.5 days A spring tide occurs at the new moon and at the full moon, when the moon and earth are lined up with the sun, and thus the moon’s pull is reinforced by the sun’s pull At spring tide, the difference between high and low tides is the greatest A neap tide, the lowest level of high tide, occurs when the sun- to earth direction is at right angles to the moon-toearth direction When this happens, the gravitational forces of the moon and sun counteract each other, thus, the moon’s pull is at minimum strength, and the difference between high and low tides is the least Spring and neap tides at any given location have a range of about 20 percent more or less, respectively, than the average high tide The vertical range of tides- the difference between high and low -varies according to the size, surface shape, and 10 bottom topography of the basin in which tidal movement occurs In the open water of the central Pacific, the range is no more than about a foot; in the relatively small, shallow North Sea, it is about 12 feet Along the narrow channel of the Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia, the difference between high and low tides may reach 45 feet under spring tide conditions- the world’s widest tidal range At New Orleans, which is at the mouth of the Mississippi River, the periodic rise and fall of the tides varies with the river’s stage, being about ten inches at low stage and zero at high In every case, actual high or low tide can vary considerably from the average Several factors affect tidal ranges, including abrupt changes in atmospheric pressure or prolonged periods of extreme high or low pressure They are also influenced by the density and volume of seawater, variations in ocean-current velocities, earthquakes, and the growing or shinking of the world’s glaciers In fact, any of these factors alone can alter sea level The greater and more rapid the change of water level, the greater the erosive effect of the tidal action, and thus in the amount of material transported and deposited on the shore 1.According to the passage, the force that generates tides on the earth is A the gravitational pull of the earth’s core B the same force that generates tides on the moon C abrupt changes in atmospheric pressure D a combination of gravity and centrifugal force 2.According to the passage, the moon A has a greater mass than the sun B is farther from the earth than the sun C has a gravitational pull toward the sun D affects tides more than the sun does 3.The word bulges in paragraph is closest in meaning to A currents B ridges C increases D waves 4.What can be inferred from paragraph about tides in different places on the earth? A High tide occurs at every location on the earth at the same time 11 B When it is high in some places, it is low tide in other places C Some places have two tides each day, but others have only one D The time between high and low tides is the same in different places 5.A spring tide occurs at the time of the lunar month when A The moon’s gravitational pull at its strongest B The moon appears as a crescent or half-circle C The sun does not exert any gravitational force D The difference between high and low tides is the least 6.Which sentence below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in paragraph 4? Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information A Spring tides are 20 percent more, and neap tides 20 percent less, than the average high tide in a particular place B There has been a 20 percent change in the number of spring tides and neap tides that occur at certain locations C If the location of a spring tide is known, then a neap tide in the same location will be 20 percent less D 20 percent of both spring tides and neap tides always occur in the same location 7.The author mentions the Bay of Fundy in paragraph in order to A compare the Bay of Fundy with larger bodies of water B explain why a narrow channel is dangerous to ships C give the most extreme example of a tidal range D show how rivers can affect the rise and fall of tides 8.The word prolonged in paragraph is closest in meaning to A extended B surprising C predicted D dangerous 9.All of the following are mentioned as influences on the vertical range of tides EXCEPT A the size and shape of the body of water B sudden changes in atmospheric pressure C increasing levels of pollution in the oceans D Changes in the size of the world’s glaciers 12 10 Look at the four squares, [A], [B], [C] and [D] which indicate where the following sentence could be added to the passage Where would the sentence best fit? Storm surges, such as the heaping up of ocean water by hurricane winds, are yet another factor Several factors affect tidal ranges, including abrupt changes in atmospheric pressure or prolonged periods of extreme high or low pressure [A] They are also influenced by the density and volume of seawater, variations in ocean-current velocities, earthquakes, and the growing or shinking of the world’s glaciers [B] In fact, any of these factors alone can alter sea level [C] The greater and more rapid the change of water level, the greater the erosive effect of the tidal action, and thus in the amount of material transported and deposited on the shore [D] A [A] B [B] C [C] D [D] Your answers 10 Part Read the text and the following tasks (15 points) Volunteer Vacationers A A growing number of Americans are using their holiday time not to laze on the beach or to frequent casinos but to restore old railways, snorkel for science and band rare birds They are a group of individuals known as “volunteer vacationers”, and many of them are professional people “We’ve seen a huge increase in interest from professionals as well as others who want short-term meaningful vacations”, said Christine Victorino of the International Volunteer Programs Association Her group was formed to organize the non-profit bodies which arrange working vacations B And these organizations want money as well as time; volunteers’ contributions typically top US $1,500 for one week, and the airfare is extra Altruism doesn’t come cheap, but these 13 vacations are partially tax-deductible, provided the volunteers put in at least five eight-hour days C “If someone had told me a few years ago that I’d pay to pick weeds on a tropical island, I would have told them they were crazy,” said Leonard Stone, a retired dentist from Chicago Yet Stone and his wife each paid to go on a week-long Oceanic Society expedition to Midway Island in the Pacific Ocean They worked on a tiny island helping ornithologists look after albatross nesting areas and counting chicks Like most sites where volunteers work, the conditions were Spartan; the volunteers lived in an army barracks dating from World War II But Stone, who is an enthusiastic bird watcher, found it a worthwhile experience He thoroughly enjoyed his daily access to the rare birds and the lectures and films about wildlife arranged by the Society D Some volunteers are motivated by a desire to lend a helping hand to the developing world In the 16 years it’s been in business, Global Volunteers has sent thousands of people all over the world on projects ranging from constructing a children’s home in India to looking after orphans in Romania Like other such organizations, Global Volunteers has trimmed the longer trips to accommodate professionals’ busy schedules, and added less-strenuous options for retirees, who now make up one-third of its clients Steve Rosenthal of Cross-cultural Solutions places vocationers on 21-day projects Volunteers help women in India start small businesses or teach English to children in Ghana E Rosenthal said that the number of students, professionals and retirees signing up for his trips has consistently doubled over the past five years Many people agree that this seems to indicate a rising tide of disillusionment among Americans with their materialistic way of life Once he explains that most of program fee funds community-based organizations in the host countries, the volunteers are quite happy to pay for a working holiday “I’d rather be paying my vacation money to a nonprofit company which is helping poor people than to a hotel corporation,” said Ron Cooke, who is a veteran volunteer vacationer He and his wife have counted birds in Costa Rica and trapped ocelots in Mexico Cooke’s last trip was an eightday vacation helping the environmental group Earthwatch in 14 the Caribean “We spent part of each day snorkeling and counting shellfish” They also interviewed fishermen and made a survey of seashells, while camping on a Dominican Republic beach F Not all the vacationers consider the vacations work; some of the programs are designed for hobbyists, or for people who want to learn a new skill For example, each summer railway enthusiasts join in the ongoing restoration of a historic narrowgauge railway in the southwest US A special group of volunteer vacationers work on organic farms In return, they learn about organic farming and get to eat a lot of healthy food Choose the most suitable heading for each paragraph from the list of headings below There are more headings than paragraphs, so you will not use all of them You may use any heading more than once List of headings i The Psychology of Volunteer Vacationers ii Paying to work iii Benefits for Volunteers iv Helping Poor Countries v Environmental Tourism vi Vacations to Learn vii The Cost of Volunteering viii The Attraction of Non-profit Bodies ix Holidays with a Difference Example: Paragraph Paragraph Paragraph Paragraph Paragraph Paragraph Answer A…….………………… ix B…….………………… C…….………………… D…….………………… E…….………………… F…….………………… Do the following statements agree with the views of the writer in the passage?
