One force at play is tides, which are the alternating water levels of the ocean There are two major gravitational forces which cause tides: the sun and the moon The moon’s force has a tugging effect on oceans which causes them to bulge outwards on opposite sides of the planet Solar tides operate according to the same principles However, they are only about 50 percent as strong due to the distance between the sun and the earth VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí As tides rise and fall, they create tidal currents The strongest tidal currents occur at the height of both high and low tides Unlike other currents, they not flow in a continuous stream Far from shore, tidal currents don’t have much of an effect Yet when they pass through narrow area, like harbours and bays, tidal currents can displace plants, animals, and sediment Although they may certainly shake things up, not all of the damage is negative Tidal currents can spread fish eggs across long distances to assist fertilization, in addition to transporting key nutrients Another category of currents is ocean currents These currents occur near the top of the water, and are mainly powered by the wind One example of these is coastal currents, which are those beachgoers encounter when going for a swim One of the strongest and most well-known currents is the Gulf Stream, which brings warm water from the Gulf of Mexico all the way to Western Europe Meanwhile, Deep Ocean currents are a powerful force in the depths of oceans The strongest of these has been nicknamed the global conveyor belt, and it moves much slower than surface currents Although we can’t see it in operation, it’s about 16 times as powerful as all the earth’s rivers put together As the global conveyor belt pushes water around the planet, it carries nutrition and carbon dioxide to places that truly need them In the end, although there are several currents working on oceans simultaneously, they each seem to perform a necessary function that creates balance for life in the sea Question 36 What might be another good title for the passage?

A They transport things around B They always cause negative events C They destroy many towns D They kill lots of plants and fish Question 42 What can be inferred from the passage? A People in Western Europe may see the Gulf Stream B There are ocean currents which are more powerful than the global conveyor belt VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí C The moon’s force has the same effect on oceans on the opposite sides of the earth D Ocean currents play a role in creating life balance in the sea Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C and D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions The ruined temples of Angkor are perhaps one of the most impressive Seven Wonders of the World Located in modern day Cambodia near Lake Tonle Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Asia, Angkor was the seat of power for the Khmer Empire from the ninth to the fifteenth century The ruins of Angkor are documented as some of the most impressive ones in the world, rivaling the pyramids of Giza in Egypt Why this mighty civilization died out is a question that archeologists are now only beginning to ponder The answer, it turns out, may be linked with the availability of fresh water One possible explanation for the downfall of the Khmer Empire has to with the inhabitants’ irrigation system The temple and palaces of Angkor were constructed around a series of artificial reservoirs and canals which were annually flooded to capacity by the Mekong River Once filled, they were used to irrigate the surrounding rice paddies and farmland during the course of the year Farmers were completely dependent upon the water for their crucial rice crop Without consistent irrigation, the farmers would have been unable to maintain functional crop production Scientists speculate that toward the end of the Khmer Empire the hydraulic systems of the reservoirs and canals broke down The construction of hundreds of sandstone temples and palaces required an enormous amount of physical labor In addition, as the capital of the Khmer Empire, Angkor contained upwards of one hundred thousand people who resided in and around Angkor In order to feed so many people, the local farmers were driven to grow food quicker and more efficiently After centuries of continual use, the irrigation system was pushed beyond its capacity Soil erosion, nutrient depletion, and the loss of water led to decrease in the food supply With less food available, the people of Angkor slowly began to migrate to other parts of Cambodia thus leaving the marvelous city of Angkor to be swallowed by the jungle Therefore, it is speculated that the Khmer Empire may have fallen victim to its own decrepit infrastructure Question 43 What is the passage mainly about?

A They became non-functional due to overuse B They supplied irrigation from the Indian Ocean C They were destroyed by nearby warrior tribes D They helped transport the sandstones for constructing temples Question 50 It can be inferred from the passage that the inhabitants of the Khmer Empire A depended upon rice as their main source of food B were intentionally starved by the farmers C lost their food source due to excess rainfall D supplemented their diets with meat hunted in the nearby jungles _THE END _
