According to the controversial sunspot theory great storms on the surface of the sun hurl streams of solar particles into the atmosphere, causing a shift in the weather on earth
A typical sunspot consists of a dark central umbra surrounded by a lighter penumbra of light and dark threads extending out from the center like the spokes of a wheel Actually, the sunspots are cooler than the rest of the photosphere, which may account for their color Typically, the temperature in a sunspot umbra
is about 4000 K, whereas the temperature in a penumbra registers 5500 K, and the granules outside the spot are 6000 K
Trang 5Sunspots range in size from tiny granules to complex structures with areas stretching for billions of square
miles About 5 % of the spots are large enough so that they can be seen without instruments; consequently,
observations of sunspots have been recorded for several thousand years
Sunspots have been observed in arrangements of one to more than one hundred spots, but they tend to occur in pairs There is also a marked tendency for the two spots of a pair to have opposite magnetic
polarities Furthermore, the strength of the magnetic field associated with any given sunspot is closely related to the spot’s size
Although there is no theory that completely explains the nature and function of sunspots, several models attempt to relate the phenomenon to magnetic fields along the lines of longitude from the north and south poles of the sun
Câu 61 What is the author’s main purpose in the passage?
A To propose a theory to explain sunspots
B To describe the nature of sunspots
C To compare the umbra and the penumbra in sunspots
D To argue for the existence of magnetic fields in sunspots
Câu 62 The word “controversial” in line 1 is closest in meaning to
A widely accepted B open to debate
C just introduced D very complicated
Câu 63 Solar particles are hurled into space by
A undetermined causes B disturbances of winds
C small rivers on the surface of the sun D changes in the earth’s atmosphere
Câu 64 The word “particles” in line 2 refers to
A gas explosions in the atmosphere B light rays from the sun
C liquid stream on the sun D small pieces of matter from the sun
Câu 65 How can we describe matter from the sun that enters the earth’s atmosphere?
A Very small B Very hot C Very bright D Very hard
Câu 66 The sunspot theory is
A not considered very important B widely accepted
C subject to disagreement D relatively new
Câu 67 The word “they” in line 9 refers to
A structures B spots C miles D granules
Câu 68 The word “consequently” in line 9 could best be replaced by
A as a result B nevertheless C without doubt D in this way
Câu 69 In which configuration do spots usually occur?
A In one spot of varying size B In a configuration of two spots
C In arrangements of one hundred or more spots D In groups of several thousand spots
Câu 70 How are sunspots explained?
A Sunspots appear to be related to magnetic fields on the earth
B Sunspots may be related to magnetic fields that follow longitudinal lines on the sun
C Sunspots are explained by storms that occur on the earth
D Sunspots have no theory or model to explain them

In addition to providing energy, fats have several other functions in the body The fat-soluble vitamins, A,
D, E and K, are dissolved in fats, as their name implies Good sources of these vitamins have high oil or fat
Trang 6content, and the vitamins are stored in the body’s fatty tissues In the diet, fats cause food to remain longer
in the stomach, this increasing the feeling of fullness for some time after a meal is eaten Fats add variety, taste, and texture to foods, which accounts for the popularity of fried foods Fatty deposits in the body have
an insulating and protective value The curves of the human female body are due mostly to strategically located fat deposits
Whether a certain amount of fat in the diet is essential to human health is not definitely known
When rats are fed a fat-free diet, their growth eventually ceases, their skin becomes inflamed and scaly,
and their reproductive systems are damaged Two fatty acids, linoleic and arachidonic acids, prevent these abnormalities and hence are called essential fatty acids They also are required by a number of other
animals but their roles in human beings are debatable Most nutritionists consider linoleic fatty acid an essential nutrient for humans
Câu 71 This passage probably appeared in which of the following?
A A diet book B A book on basic nutrition

Câu 75 The author states that fats serve all the following body function EXCEPT to
A promote a feeling of fullness B insulate and protect the body
C provide energy D control weight gain
Câu 76 The word “essential” in line 8 is closest in meaning to
A required for B desired for C detrimental to D beneficial to
Câu 77 According to the author of the passage, which of the following is true for rats when they are fed a
fat free diet?
A They stop growing B They have more babies
C They lose body hair D They require less care
Câu 78 Linoleic fatty acid is mentioned in the passage as
A an essential nutrient for humans B more useful than arachidonic acid
C preventing weight gain in rats D a nutrient found in most food
Câu 79 The phrase “these abnormalities” in line 9-10 refers to
A a condition caused by fried food
B strategically located fat deposits
C curves on the human female body
D cessation of growth, bad skin, and damaged reproductive systems
Câu 80 That humans should all have some fat in our diet is, according to the author
A a commonly held view B not yet a proven fact
