Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

A greenhouse is a building whose sides and roof are made of glass so that temperature inside is magnified And it's used togrow plants that need temperatures This is to illustrate an example of how man could be cau changes to the climate Thesechanges result from increasing the carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere, thus raising the surface temperature of the Earth

This is known as the "Greenhouse Effect".

CO2 is a normal component of the atmosphere and until recently has not considered an air pollutant But average global CO2concentrations have increasing since 1860, with particularly sharp increase in 1958 The main reason for this continuousincrease in CO2 build-up is the burning of fossil fuels Duing the past 100 years, the CO2 content of the atmosphere hasalready risen by about 15% - from about 290 to about 340 parts per million And it's still rising

Although the CO2 content of the atmosphere is only about 0.032%, it's a major factor in determining average globaltemperature Incoming sunlight consists of many wavelengths including some very dangerous ones But ozone in the upperatmosphere and water vapour and CO2 in the lower atmosphere filter out or destroy most of the harmful wavelengths, so what

reaches the Earth is mostly visible light It's absorbed by land, sea and cloud and is reradiated in the atmosphere as longer

wavelength infrared radiation, or heat, as the Earth cools Much of this infrared radiation is absorbed by CO2 The CO2 thenradiates a portion of the absorbed heat energy back to the Earth to warm the atmosphere Rather like the glass in greenhouse

or a car window on sunny day, CO2 in the atmosphere acts as a oneway filter that allows visible light to enter the Earth'satmosphere, but prevents longer wavelength heat radiation from leaving Assuming that energy is arriving from the sun at aconstant rate, then as the level of CO2 increases, the average surface temperature of the earth should rise

Question 10: What is the purpose of using a greenhouse?

A To give an example of atmospheric changes caused by man.

B To magnify temperature to grow plants requiring high temperatures.

C To give an example of buildings whose sides and roof are made of glass.

D To indicate the rising level of CO2 in the earth's atmosphere.

Question 11: What is NOT true according to the information from the passage?

A CO2 allows sunlight to enter and leave the Earth's atmosphere.’

B A portion of sunlight is filtered out before entering the Earth.

C The sun emits some very dangerous wavelengths.

D The level of CO2 has risen by as much as 15%.

Question 12: What is mainly discussed in paragraph 1?

A How man could be causing changes to the climate. B What the "Greenhouse Effect" is.

SYMBOL FOR THE UNKNOWN

The different kinds of X-ray machines now in use vary in size from small dental machines to machines so large they canphotograph an automobile Yet more than 100 years ago, no one had ever heard of an X-ray In 1895, a German scientist

named Wilhelm Roentgen noticed barium platinocyanide crystals glowing from an unknown source of light in a dark room.

The man knew that there was a lighted bulb in the laboratory, but this bulb was totally screened by a tight casing of blackcardboard He concluded then that some unknown kind of light ray was passing through the screen to shine on the crystals With great excitement, Roentgen studied these strange new rays He called them X rays, because X is the scientific symbolwhich stands for the unknown X rays, Roentgen discovered, could pass through cardboard, cloth, wooden boards, and evenmetals

Roentgen's discovery of X rays was tremendously important to modern medicine Doctors depend on this valuable tool tohelp them diagnose many kinds of medical problems from broken bones to cancer Industry and scientific research makewidespread use of X rays, too X ravs make it possible to measure the amount of ethyl in gasoline or to inspect metal, plastic,rubber, and other materials for flaws that do not appear on the surface

In these and other ways, the rays which mystified Roentgen in his laboratory long ago are used by scientists today

Question 45: Roentgen called these strange new rays X rays because

A what is still unknown is represented by the symbol X.

B these rays had the shape of an X.

C these rays were a symbol of the unknown.

D these rays could, pass through cardboard, cloth, wooden boards, and even metals.

Question 46: While not directly stated, it may be inferred that

A X rays are only useful in medicine.

B Roentgen had been looking for X rays before he discovered them.

C X rays did not exist before 1800.

D Scientific discoveries are sometimes made by accident.

Question 47: The word “diagnose” in paragraph 3 is closest to the meaning of

C recognise the exact cause D investigate carefully

Question 48: This article as a whole tells us about

A the discovery and uses of X rays B the use of X rays in medicine.

C a scientist named Roentgen D barium crystals.

Trang 4

Question 49: According to the article, X rays have found application in these fields except

Question 50: Which sentence is NOT true?

A X rays make it possible to find-flaws in various products.

B X rays can pass through cloth.

C Basically, X rays have been known for hundreds of years
