Tsunamis, whose name derives from the Japanese expression for ‘high wave in a harbour’, are

giant sea waves These waves are quite different from storm surges They are also referred to by the general public as tidal waves although they have nothing to do with tides Scientists often refer

to them as seismic sea waves, which is far more appropriate because they are often the result of undersea seismic activity

Tsunamis can be caused when the sea floor suddenly moves, during an underwater earthquake or

volcano, and the water above the moving earth is suddenly displaced This sudden shift of water

sets off a series of waves These waves can travel great distances, at speeds close to 700 kilometres per hour In the open ocean, tsunami waves are not very high, often no more than one or two metres It is when they hit the shallow waters near the coast that they increase in height, possibly up to 40 metres

22

The passage mainly discusses

“, tidal waves © tides < tsunamis —, storm surges

All of the following is true about tidal waves EXCEPT ‘4 they are as another name for tsunamis

5 they are caused by sudden changes in high and low tides © this term is not used by the scientists

~ the name refer to the same phenomenon as seismic sea waves

Trang 25

The word ‘them’ in the passage refers to

/\, tidal waves © tsunamis © storm surges ", S@a Waves

The word ‘displaced’ in the passage is closest in meaning to

5 located “ not pleased ‹ filtered 2 moved

The word ‘shallow’ in the passage mostly means

A not clear ©” tidal “ coastal 2 not deep

It can be understood from the passage that tsunamis

/\, cause severe damage in the middle of the ocean © generally reach heights greater than 40 metres

‘ are far more dangerous on the coast than in the open ocean

_` are often identified by ships on the ocean
