Japan, situated (23)on the Ring of Fire on the edge of the Pacific Ocean, has suffered some major earthquakes over the years. However, nothing before compared to the triple disaster of March 11, 2011: a massive earthquake followed by powerful tsunamis which (24)led to a serious nuclear accident.

The horrors began shortly before three in (25)the afternoon local time with a 9.0-magnitude earthquake. Its epicenter was nearly 20 miles below(26) the floor of the Pacific Ocean about 80 miles east of the Japanese city of Sendai. The quake was one of the most powerful ever recorded, and the strongest (27) to hit this region of Japan.

On March 11, 2011, Japan suffered one of the greatest disasters in its history. The earthquakes and tsunami directly affected the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant and a large amount of radioactive material was released into the atmosphere. The effects of this nuclear disaster continue that there has been none of human’s appearances since then, but wild animals survive in abandoned areas and the green cover is increasing. 

Immediately after the radioactive leak, the Japanese authorities evacuated all the residents away from the area immediately. However, the fact that the region was evacuated for humans does not mean the same for animals. Scientists working at the University of Georgia in the United States, have installed camera systems in almost every region of the nuclear disaster and wanted to determine what happened in the region. They gathering various images in a total of 120 days. Images of more than 46 thousand wild boars were captured. More than 26,000 of them were shot in a completely uninhabited area, while about 13,000 images were obtained from areas close to living spaces.

Scientists now want to carry out studies to understand the genetic condition of the animals in the area. However, the return of animals and plants in Fukushima has proved that without human’s interference, nature has its own way to keep a place for every animal and plants.

p/s:dịch:

Vào ngày 11 tháng 3 năm 2011, Nhật Bản đã phải hứng chịu một trong những thảm họa lớn nhất trong lịch sử của mình. Động đất và sóng thần đã ảnh hưởng trực tiếp đến Nhà máy điện hạt nhân Fukushima và một lượng lớn chất phóng xạ đã được phát tán vào khí quyển. Ảnh hưởng của thảm họa hạt nhân này vẫn tiếp tục xảy ra, kể từ đó không có sự xuất hiện của con người, nhưng động vật hoang dã vẫn tồn tại trong những khu vực bị bỏ hoang và độ phủ xanh ngày càng tăng.

Ngay sau sự cố rò rỉ phóng xạ, nhà chức trách Nhật Bản đã sơ tán toàn bộ cư dân ra khỏi khu vực ngay lập tức. Tuy nhiên, thực tế là khu vực được sơ tán đối với con người không có nghĩa là đối với động vật. Các nhà khoa học làm việc tại Đại học Georgia, Hoa Kỳ, đã lắp đặt hệ thống camera ở hầu hết các khu vực xảy ra thảm họa hạt nhân và muốn xác định điều gì đã xảy ra trong khu vực. Họ thu thập nhiều hình ảnh khác nhau trong tổng số 120 ngày. Hình ảnh hơn 46 nghìn con lợn rừng bị bắt. Hơn 26.000 bức ảnh trong số đó được quay ở một khu vực hoàn toàn không có người ở, trong khi khoảng 13.000 bức ảnh được thu thập từ những khu vực gần với không gian sống.

Các nhà khoa học hiện muốn thực hiện các nghiên cứu để tìm hiểu tình trạng di truyền của các loài động vật trong khu vực. Tuy nhiên, sự trở lại của động vật và thực vật ở Fukushima đã chứng minh rằng không có sự can thiệp của con người, thiên nhiên có cách riêng để giữ chỗ cho mọi loài động vật và thực vật.

1. Cái gì có thể là tiêu đề tốt nhất cho đoạn văn?

A. Thiên nhiên tiếp quản các khu vực bị bỏ hoang ở Fukushima.

B. Thảm họa hạt nhân Fukushima.

C. Các nhà khoa học đã phải vật lộn với chất thải hạt nhân của Nhật Bản.

D. Thiên tai ở Nhật Bản.

2. Từ "họ" in đậm trong đoạn 2 dùng để chỉ điều gì?

A. Các nhà khoa học. B. Hình ảnh. C. Ngày. D. Lợn rừng.

3. Tại sao các nhà khoa học lại lắp đặt hệ thống camera trong vùng xảy ra thảm họa hạt nhân?

A. Vì họ muốn hiểu tình trạng di truyền của các loài động vật trong vùng.

B. Vì họ muốn đếm số lượng lợn rừng.

C. Vì họ muốn di tản toàn bộ cư dân ra khỏi vùng.

D. Vì họ muốn xem những gì đã xảy ra trong khu vực.

4. Có bao nhiêu hình ảnh về lợn rừng ở khu vực không có người ở?

A. 46.000 B. 13.000 C. 120.000 D. 26.000

5. Từ nào sau đây có thể thay thế từ "xác định" trong đoạn 2?

A. thiết lập B. tìm ra C. quyết định D. hoàn thành

A tsunami is a natural disaster more devastating than earthquakes, tornadoes or any other disaster you can think of. Tsunami is a Japanese word that means harbor wave. A tsunami happens when huge waves are formed after something under the ocean occurs to make these large waves form. Erupting volcanoes can also cause tsunamis to occur. The waves start in one area but they move quickly in all different directions once the tsunami begins. Tsunamis begin as an under the water earthquake. The force of the earth moving causes the water to move and produce huge waves. Waves from tsunami cam travel through the water as fast as 500 miles per hour.
