Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the<br />
correct answer to each of the questions from 17 to 23.<br />
Ambient divers are, unlike divers who go underwater in submersible vehicles of pressure resistant suits,<br />
exposed to the pressure and temperature of the surrounding ambient water. Of all types of diving, the<br />
oldest and simplest is free diving. Free divers may use no equipment at all, but most use a face mask,<br />
foot fins, and a snorkel. Under the surface, free divers must hold their breath. Most free divers can only<br />
descend 30 to 40 feet, but some skilled divers can go as deep as 100 feet<br />
Scuba diving provides greater range than free diving. The word scuba stands for self-contained<br />
underwater breathing apparatus. Scuba divers wear metal tanks with compressed air or other breathing<br />
gases. When using open-circuit equipment, a scuba diver simply breathes air form the tank through a<br />
hose and releases the exhaled air into the water. A closed-circuit breathing device, also called a<br />
rebreather, filters out carbon dioxide and other harmful gases and automatically adds oxygen. This<br />
enables the diver to breathe the same air over and over. In surface-supplied diving, divers wear helmets<br />
and waterproof canvas suits.Today, sophiticated plastic helmets have replaced the heavy copper helmets<br />
used in the past.These divers get their air from a hose connected to compressors on a boat.Surfacesupplied divers can go deeper than any other type of ambient diver.<br />

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the<br />
correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 43.<br />
There are a number of natural disasters that can strike across the globe. Two that are frequently<br />
linked to one another are earthquakes and tsunamis. Both of them can cause a great amount of<br />
devastation when they hit. However, tsunamis are the direct result of earthquakes and cannot happen<br />
without them.<br />
The Earth has three main parts. They are the crust, the mantle, and the core. The crust is the<br />
outer layer of the Earth. It is not a single piece of land. Instead, it is comprised of a number of plates.<br />
There are a few enormous plates and many smaller ones. These plates essentially rest upon the mantle,<br />
which is fluid. As a result, the plates are in constant – yet slow – motion. The plates may move away<br />
from or toward other plates. In some cases, they collide violently with the plates adjoining them. The<br />
movement of the plates causes tension in the rock. Over a long time, this tension may build up. When it<br />
is released, an earthquake happens.<br />
Tens of thousands of earthquakes happen every year. The vast majority are so small that only<br />
scientific instruments can perceive them. Others are powerful enough that people can feel them, yet they<br />
cause little harm or damage. More powerful earthquakes, however, can cause buildings, bridges, and<br />
other structures to collapse. They may additionally injure and skill thousands of people and might even<br />
cause the land to change it appearance.<br />
Since most of the Earth’s surface is water, numerous earthquakes happen beneath the planet’s<br />
oceans. Underwater earthquakes cause the seafloor to move. This results in the displacement of water in<br />
the ocean. When this occurs, a tsunami may form. This is a wave that forms on the surface and moves in<br />
all directions from the place where the earthquake happened. A tsunami moves extremely quickly and<br />
can travel thousnads of kilometres. As it approaches land, the water near the coast gets sucked out to<br />
sea. This causes the tsunamis to increase in height. Minutes later, the tsunami arrives. A large tsunami –<br />
one more than ten meters in height – can travel far inland. As it does that, it can flood the land, destroy<br />
human settlements, and kill large numbers of people.<br />
