Without a vehicle,<br /> Trang 3/6 - Mã đề thi 209<br /> <br /> divers often became sluggish, and their mental concentration was severely limited. Because undersea<br /> pressure affects their speech organs, communication among divers has always been difficult or<br /> impossible. But today, most oceanographers avoid the use of vulnerable human divers, preferring to<br /> reduce the risk to human life and make direct obervations by means of instruments that are lowered<br /> into the ocean, from samples take from the water, or from photographs made by orbiting satellites.<br /> Direct observations of the ocean floor can be made not only by divers but also by deep-diving<br /> submarines in the water and even by the technology of sophisticated aerial photgraphy from vantage<br /> points above the surface of more than seven miles and cruise at depths of fifteen thousand feet. In<br /> addition, radio-equipped buoys can be operated by remote control in order to transmit data back to<br /> land-based laboratories via satellite. Particularly important for ocean study are data about water<br /> temperature, currents, and weather. Satellite photographs can show the distribution of sea ice, oil<br /> slicks, and cloud formations over the ocean. Maps created from satellite pictures can represent the<br /> temperature and the color of the ocean’s surface, enabling researchers to study the ocean currents<br /> from laboratories on dry land. Furthermore, computers help oceanographers to collect, organize, and<br /> analyze information from submarines and satellites. By creating a model of the ocean’s movement<br /> and characteristics, scientists can predict the patterns and possible effects of the ocean on the<br /> enviroment.<br /> Recently, many oceanographers have been relying more on satellites and computers than on research<br /> ships or even submarine vehicles because they can supply a greater range of information more quickly and<br /> more effectively. Some of humankind’s most serious problems, especially those concerning energy and<br /> food, may be solved with the help of observations made possible by this new technology.<br /> <br /> Câu 36: With what topic is the passage primarily converned?<br /> A. Direct observation of the ocean floor.<br /> B. Communication among drivers.<br /> C. Technological advances in oceanography. D.

Work influences virtually every aspect of your life, from your choice of friends to<br /> where you live. Here are just a few of the factors to consider.<br /> Deciding what matters most to you is essential to making the right decision. You may want to<br /> begin by assessing your likes, dislikes, strengths, and weaknesses. Think about the classes, hobbies,<br /> and surroundings that you find most appealing. Ask yourself questions, such as “Would you like to<br /> travel ? Do you want to work with children ? Are you more suited to solitary or cooperative work ?”<br /> There are no right or wrong answers ; only you know what is important to you. Determine which job<br /> features you require, which ones you would prefer, and which ones you cannot accept. Then rank<br /> them in order of importance to you.<br /> The setting of the job is one factor to take into account. You may not want to sit at a desk all<br /> day. If not, there are diversity occupation – building inspector, supervisor, real estate agent – that<br /> involve a great deal of time away from the office. Geographical location may be a concern, and<br /> employment in some fields is concentrated in certain regions. Advertising job can generally be found<br /> only in large cities. On the other hand, many industries such as hospitality, law education, and retail<br /> sales are found in all regions of the country.If a high salary is important to you, do not judge a career<br /> by its starting wages. Many jobs, such as insurance sales, offers relatively low starting salaries;<br /> however, pay substantially increases along with your experience, additional training, promotions and<br /> commission.<br /> Don’t rule out any occupation without learning more about it. Some industries evoke positive<br /> or negative associations. The traveling life of a flight attendant appears glamorous, while that of a<br /> plumber does not. Remember that many jobs are not what they appear to be at first, and may have<br /> merits or demerits that are less obvious. Flight attendants must work long, grueling hours without<br /> sleeps, whereas plumbers can be as highly paid as some doctors. Another point to consider is that as<br /> you get mature, you will likely to develop new interests and skills that may point the way to new<br /> opportunities. The choice you make today need not be your final one.<br /> Câu 43: The author states that “There are no right or wrong answers” in order to _______.<br /> A. emphasize that each person’s answers will be different.<br /> Trang 5/6 - Mã đề thi 209<br /> <br />
