1) Descriptive Text
The
following text is for question 1 to 5
Gregory
is my beautiful gray Persian cat. He walks with pride and grace, performing a
dance of disdain as he slowly lifts and lowers each paw with the delicacy of
a ballet dancer. His pride, however, does not extend to his appearance, for
he spends most of his time indoors watching television and growing fat.
He enjoys TV commercials, especially those for Meow Mix and 9 Lives. His
familiarity with cat food commercials has led him to reject generic brands of
cat food in favor of only the most expensive brands.
Gregory is as finicky about visitors as he is about what he eats, befriending
some and repelling others. He may snuggle up against your ankle, begging to
be petted, or he may imitate a skunk and stain your favorite trousers.
Gregory does not do this to establish his territory, as many cat experts
think, but to humiliate me because he is jealous of my friends.
After my guests have fled, I look at the old fleabag snoozing and smiling to him
in front of the television set, and I have to forgive him for his obnoxious,
but endearing, habits.

3) Explanation Text
The
following text is for question 11-15
Tsunami
The term of “tsunami” comes from the Japanese which means harbour
("tsu") and wave ("nami"). A tsunami is a series of waves
generated when water in a lake or a sea is rapidly displaced on a massive
scale.
A tsunami can be generated when the sea floor abruptly deforms and vertically
displaces the overlying water. Such large vertical movements of the earth's
crust can occur at plate boundaries.
Subduction of earthquakes are particularly effective in generating tsunami,
and occur where denser oceanic plates slip under continental plates.
As the displaced water mass moves under the influence of gravity to regain
its equilibrium, it radiates across the ocean like ripples on a pond.
Tsunami always bring great damage. Most of the damage is caused by the huge
mass of water behind the initial wave front, as the height of the sea keeps
rising fast and floods powerfully into the coastal area.
