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 followingquestions from 51 to 60 . The ocean bottom- a region nearly 2.5 times greater than total land area of the Earth- is a vast frontier that even today is largely unexplored and uncharted. Until about a century ago , the deep-ocean floor was completely inaccessible , hidden beneath waters averaging over 3,6000 meters deep. Totally without light and subjected to intense pressures hundreds of times greater than at the Earth’s surface, deep-ocean bottom is a hostile environment to humans , in some ways as forbidding and remote as the void of outer space. Although researchers have taken samples of deep-ocean rocks and sediments for over a century, the first detailed global investigation of the ocean bottom did not actually start until 1968, with the beginning of the National Science Foundation’s Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP). Using techniques first developed for the offshore oil gas industry, the Dad’s drill ship , the Glomar Challenger, was able to maintain a steady position on the ocean’s surface and drill in very deep waters, extracting samples of sediments and rock from the ocean floor. The Glomar Challenger completed 96 voyages in a 15 –year research program that ended in November 1983. During this time, the vessel logged 600,000 kilometers and took almost 20,000 core samples of seabed sediments and rocks at 624 drilling sites around the world . The Glomar Challenger’s core samples have allowed geologists to reconstruct what the planet looked like hundreds of millions of years ago and to calculate what it will problem look like millions of years in the future. Today , largely on the strength of evidence gathered during the Glomar Challenger’s voyages, nearly all earth scientists agree on the theories of plate tectonics and continental drift that explain many of the geological processes that shape the Earth. The cores of sediment drilled by the Glomar Challenger have also yielded information critical to understanding the world’s past climates . Deep-ocean sediments provide a climatic record stretching back hundreds of millions of years, because they are largely isolated from the mechanical erosion and the intense chemical and biological activity that rapidly destroy much land-based evidence of past climates. This record has already provided insights into the patterns and causes of past climatic change-information that may be used to predict future climatesQuestion 51: The author refers to the ocean bottom as a “frontier” because it___A. is an unknown territory B. attracts courageous explorersC. is not a popular area for scientific research D. contains a wide variety of life formsQuestion 52: The word “inaccessible” is closest meaning to ___ .A. unreachable B. unrecognizable C. unsafe D. unusableQuestion 53: The author mention outer space in the first paragraph because___ .

Trang 5/7 - Mã đề thi 485 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 following questions from 66 to 75. Are organically grown foods the best choices? The advantages claimed for such foods over conventionally grownand marketed food products are now being debated. Advocates of organic foods – a term whose meaning varies greatly – frequently proclaim that such products are safer and more nutritious than others. The growing interest of consumers in the safety and more nutritional quality of the typical North American diet is a welcome development . However, much of this interest has been sparked by sweeping claims that the food supply is unsafe or inadequate in meeting nutritional needs. Although most of these claims are not supported by scientific evidence, the preponderance of written material advancing such claims makes it difficult for the general public to separate fact from fiction. As a result, claims that eating a diet consisting entirely of organically grown foods prevents or cures disease or provides other benefits to health have become widely publicized and form the basis for folklore. Almost daily the public is besieged by claims for “no-aging” diets, new vitamins, and other wonder foods. There are numerous unsubstantiated reports that natural vitamins are superior to synthetic ones, that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to fertilized eggs, that untreated grains are better than fumigated grains and the like. One thing that most organically grown food products seem to have in common is that they cost more than conventionally grown foods. But in many cases consumers are misled if they believe organic foods can maintain health and provide better nutritional quality than conventionally grown foods. So there is real cause for concern if consumers, particularly those with limited incomes, distrust the regular food and buy only expensive organic foods insteadQuestion 66: The word “Advocates” is closest in meaning to which of the following ?A.

ProponentsQuestion 67: In the first paragraph, the word “other” refers to ___.A. advantages B. organic foods C. products D. advocatesQuestion 68: The “ welcome development” mentioned is an increase in___.A. the amount of health food grown in North AmericanB. the nutritional quality of the typical North American dietC. interest in food safety and nutritional quality of the typical North American dietD. the number of consumers in North AmericanQuestion 69: According to the first paragraph , which of the following is true about the terms “ organic foods” ?A. It has no fixed meaning. B. It is seldom used by consumers.C. It has been used only in recent years. D. It is accepted by most nutritionists .Question 70: The word “unsubstantiated” is closest in meaning to ___.A. unbelievable B. unverified C. uncontested D. unpopularQuestion 71: The word “maintain” is closest in meaning to ___.A. monitor B. retire C. improve D. preserveQuestion 72: Who does the author think should NOT buy organic foods ?A.
