171703 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 6 to 13. 
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

171747 Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the 
correct answer to each questions from 42 to 48. 
A lot of advice is available for college leavers heading for their first job. In this article we consider the 
move to a second job. We are not concerned with those looking for a second temporary position while hunting 
for a permanent job. Nor are we concerned with those leaving an unsatisfactory job within the first few weeks. 
Instead, we will be dealing with those of you taking a real step on the career ladder, choosing a job to fit in with 
your ambitions now that you have learnt your way around, acquired some skills and have some idea of where 
you want to go. 
What sort of job should you look for? Much depends on your long-term aim. You need to ask yourself 
whether you want to specialize in a particular field, work your way up to higher levels of responsibility or out of 
your current employment into a broader field. 
Whatever you decide, you should choose your second job very carefully. You should be aiming to stay 
in it for two or three years. This job will be studied very carefully when you send your letter of application for 
your next job. It should show evidence of serious career planning. Most important, it should extend you, 
develop you 
and give you increasing responsibility. Incidentally, if you are interested in traveling, now is the time to pack up 
and go. You can do temporary work for a while when you return, pick up where you left off and get the second 
job then. Future potential employers will be relieved to see that you have got it out of your system, and are not 
likely to go off again.
