Every ten years there is a national census to count the number of people. The census counts the number of people in each area, the number of men and women, their ages, their profession, their family size and status. The census is the only way to count everyone. Its results are used by a great many people and are available to everyone. The census is useful; it helps to work out present and future needs for housing by seeing how many people are housed now, or the sizes and ages of their families. In addition, the size of annual grants made by the Government to public services depends largely on the numbers and needs of people in the area provided by the census. Furthermore, the census shows how many people have moved from one area to another and how the number of the local work force is changing. The census is taken in order to provide the figures about the nation as a whole. It does not give information about any named person, family or household. Therefore, names and addresses are needed on the forms but they are not fed into the computer. After the census, the forms with the names on are locked away and will not be released to anyone outside the Census Office for 100 years. The answers people give on their census forms will be treated in strict confidence. Everyone working on the census is sworn to secrecy and can be sued if he or she improperly reveals information. Question 36: Which of the following does the census not take interest in? A. How many houses you have B. How old you are C. What your job is D. How big your family is Question 37: Census results _________________. A. are not used for anyone B. are kept in secret forever C. can be used for everyone D. are used by no one Question 38: How the size of grants to local services is based on information from the census?

The census reveals everyone’s personal information. C. People must supply personal information. D. The census information is stored in a computer.

A. is important B. the counting C. accounting D. to count people 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 from 43 to 50 Quite different from storm surges are the giant sea waves called tsunamis, which derive their name from the Japanese expression for “high water in a harbor.” These waves are also referred to by the general public as tidal waves, although they have relatively little to do with tides. Scientists often referred to them as seismic sea waves, far more appropriate in that they do result from undersea seismic activity.Tsunamis are caused when the sea bottom suddenly moves, during an underwater earthquake or volcano for example, 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 kilometers per hour. In the open ocean, tsunamis have little noticeable amplitude, often no more than one or two meters. It is when they hit the shallow waters near the coast that they increase in height, possibly up to 40 meters.Tsunamis often occur in the Pacific because the Pacific is an area of heavy seismic activity. Two areas of the Pacific well accustomed to the threat of tsunamis are Japan and Hawaii. Because the seismic activity that causes tsunamis in Japan often occurs on the ocean bottom quite close to the islands, the tsunamis that hit Japan often come with little warning and can, therefore, prove disastrous. Most of the tsunamis that hit the Hawaiian Islands, however, originate thousands of miles away near the coast of Alaska, so these tsunamis have a much greater distance to travel and the inhabitants of Hawaii generally have time for warning of their imminent arrival.Tsunamis are certainly not limited to Japan and Hawaii. In 1755, Europe experienced a calamitous tsunami, when movement along the fault lines near the Azores caused a massive tsunami to sweep onto the Portuguese coast and flood the heavily populated area around Lisbon. The greatest tsunami on record occurred on the other side of the world in 1883 when the Krakatoa volcano underwent a massive explosion, sending waves more than 30 meters high onto nearby Indonesian islands; the tsunami from this volcano actually traveled around the world and was witnessed as far away as the English Channel. Question 43: The paragraph preceding this passage most probably discusses? A. underwater earthquakes B. storm surges C. tides D. tidal waves Question 44: According to the passage, all of the following are true about tidal waves EXCEPT that ______________. A. they are caused by sudden changes in high and low tides B. this terminology is not used by the scientific community C. they are the same as tsunamis D. they refer to the same phenomenon as seismic sea waves Question 45: It can be inferred from the passage that tsunamis ________________. A. cause severe damage in the middle of the ocean B. generally reach heights greater than 40 meters HOC24.VN 6 C. are far more dangerous on the coast than in the open ocean D. are often identified by ships on the ocean Question 46: A main difference between tsunamis in Japan and in Hawaii is that tsunamis in Japan are more likely to ________________. A. come from greater distances B. originate in Alaska C. be less of a problem D. arrive without warning Question 47: The possessive “their” in paragraph 3 refers to ____________. A. the Hawaiian Islands B. thousands of miles C. these tsunamis D. the inhabitants of Hawaii Question 48: A “calamitous” tsunami, in paragraph 4, is one that is________________. A. at fault B. disastrous C. extremely calm D. expected Question 49: From the expression “on record” in the last paragraph, it can be inferred that the tsunami that accompanied the Krakatoa volcano ____________.
