IX. Read the passage and decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F).

What natural disasters occur in Viet Nam?

Viet Nam, located in Southeast Asia, has both sub-tropical and tropical climates. Typically, the weather is hot and humid. Rain falls on a daily basis, especially during the monsoon season. Let's take a look at some of the previous natural disasters that have happened in this country.

Typhoons, also known as tropical cyclones, are common in Viet Nam, where there are typically five of them yearly. The typhoon season varies by region. The month’s most likely to be affected by a typhoon in the northeast are October through March, while the central coast's is August through November, and the southwest's is April to September. In Viet Nam, heavy rains, usually induced by tropical storms, can last for a long time, causing damaging floods and landslides. Heavy rains can rush across numerous cities and villages, sweeping people and livestock to their deaths.

When a cold front hits the top of Viet Nam, it may cause severe and deadly weather systems. Hailstorms are most frequently seen in the northern provinces of Son La, Ha Giang, Lai Chau, and Yen Bai. Hail may be quite harmful when it occurs, especially to houses and crops, as it has been known to damage fields of corn and many fruit trees. In Viet Nam, storms with strong winds and heavy rain can cause a violent tornado.

Tornadoes are uncommon in Vietnam, but they can occur and can be devastating. Earthquakes do not happen frequently in Vietnam, although they do occur rarely. The majority of earthquakes that have happened have been small; nevertheless, there have been a few that have shaken the nation. 33. Vietnam's climate is subtropical and tropical, and it is located in Southeast Asia. 34. Vietnam normally experiences four typhoons every year, commonly known as the tropical cyclones. 35. Severe rains can wash over many cities and villages, killing people and animals. 36. The northern provinces of Son La, Ha Giang, Lai Chau, and Yen Bai are the ones that get hailstorms most regularly. 37. Tornadoes are frequent in Vietnam; they can occur and have serious consequences.

Vietnam usually has a dozen storms every year from June through the end of November, and most of which occur in the Central and northern provinces. November 2nd, 1997, however, was an unexpected day when the major storm Linda raged in the South. Linda was the worst typhoon in Southern Vietnam over 100 years. Formed in the sea of the Philippines, Linda strengthened as it moved westward. Later, it struck extreme Southern Vietnam with winds of 100 kilometres an hour. Over 3000 people were reported lost and died. Ca Mau province, suffered a direct hit by the storm, had the most damage. Gusts and heavy rainfalls caused flooding, destroyed crops, damaged about 200,000 houses and left about 383,000 people homeless. Linda later struck Thailand, causing flash flooding and at least 164 deaths. The storm also affected Myanmar, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Cambodia to a lesser degree.

Today, residents in Mekong Delta still remember Linda after 20 years. The duration of the time is enough for a kid to grow up from an unforgettable event. The memory of a particular typhoon improves everyone’s awareness of natural disasters.

Read the following passage, translate and write T (for TRUE) and F (for FALSE).

Like most other hobbies, stamp colleting can be exhilarating, time-consuming and, for the uninitiated, overwhelming. Consider this - it is estimated that in the last 100 years alone, close to one billion diffrent stamps have been issued by governments all around the world. Not only that, but some of these stamps are as rare, and as expensive, as Renaissance paintings. The most famous is probably the upside-down airplane stamp, valued at almost 1 million dollars. Also the result of a printing mistake is the world's most expensive stamp, the Treskilling Yellow, so called because it was originally worth three shillings when issued in Sweden in 1855, and because it was supposed to be printed in green, this being the only known sample in yellow. This stamp was recently sold at auction for 1.7 milion pounds, making it the single most expensive item by weight in the world.

Read the following passage, translate and write T (for TRUE) and F (for FALSE).

Like most other hobbies, stamp colleting can be exhilarating, time-consuming and, for the uninitiated, overwhelming. Consider this - it is estimated that in the last 100 years alone, close to one billion diffrent stamps have been issued by governments all around the world. Not only that, but some of these stamps are as rare, and as expensive, as Renaissance paintings. The most famous is probably the upside-down airplane stamp, valued at almost 1 million dollars. Also the result of a printing mistake is the world's most expensive stamp, the Treskilling Yellow, so called because it was originally worth three shillings when issued in Sweden in 1855, and because it was supposed to be printed in green, this being the only known sample in yellow. This stamp was recently sold at auction for 1.7 milion pounds, making it the single most expensive item by weight in the world. Of course, amateur philatelists would do well to concentrate on a sub-section of the wonderful world that is philately, such as collecting every stamp issued by a certain government in a year, or collecting every stamp of a particular design, etc. Any other approach to this hobby is a sure fire recipe for frustration and perhaps for ruin.

CLIMATE CHANGE AND GLOBAL WARMING

Climate change

Climate change, also called global warming, refers to the rise in average surface temperatures on Earth. An overwhelming scientific consensus maintains that climate change is due primarily to the human use of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the air. The gases trap heat within the atmosphere, which can have a range of effects on ecosystems, including rising sea levels, severe weather events, and droughts that render landscapes more susceptible to wildfires.

The green house effect

While other planets in Earth's solar system are either scorching hot or bitterly old, Earth's surface has relatively mild, stable temperatures. Earth enjoys these temperatures because of its atmosphere, which is the thin layer of gases that cloak and protect the planet. However, 97 percent of climate scientists agree that humans have changed Earth's atmosphere in dramatic ways over the past two centuries, resulting in global warming The exchange of incoming and outgoing radiation that warms the Earth is often referred to as the greenhouse effect because a greenhouse works in much the same way. Incoming UV radiation easily passes through the glass walls of a greenhouse and is absorbed by the plants and hard surfaces inside. Weaker IR radiation, however, has difficulty passing through the glass walls and is trapped inside, thus warming the greenhouse. This effect lets tropical plants thrive inside a greenhouse, even during a cold winter.

Consequences of global warming

There are two major effects of global warming: the increase of temperature on the earth by about 30 to 50C (5.40 to 90Fahrenheit) by the year 2100 are Rise of sea levels by at least 25 meters (82 feet) by the year 2100. Other consequences are listed below:

• Sea levels are rising due to thermal expansion of the ocean, in addition to melting of land ice.

• Amounts and patterns of precipitation are changing.

• The total annual power of hurricanes has already increased markedly since 1975 because their average intensity and average duration have increased.

• Changes in temperature and precipitation patterns increase the frequency, duration, and intensity of other extreme weather events, such as floods, droughts heat waves, and tornadoes.

• Higher or lower agricultural yields, further glacial retreat, reduced summer stream flows, species extinctions.

• Diseases like malaria are returning into areas where they have been extinguished earlier

I. Read the passage, and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).

UNESCO has recognized the 82 Doctors’ stone tablets as
a Memory of the World. They are inscribed with the names of
2,313 doctorate holders who passed the royal examinations
between 1442 and 1780. The stone tablets, which bear the names
of Trang Nguyen, Bang Nhan, Tham Hoa, and Hoang Giap (the
first, second, third and fourth winning categories at the royal
examinations), sit on the backs of stone turtles.
These stone tablets are different from those in other
Asian countries, including China which had influenced

Vietnamese feudal education. The decorations on Viet Nam’s stone tablets were more diverse.
By naming Viet Nam’s stone tablets as a Memory of the World, UNESCO also acknowledges Viet Nam’s
efforts to preserve and promote heritage to international community. The recognition would also help to raise
the awareness in heritage preservation.

T F
1. UNESCO has recognized the 82 Doctors’ stone tablets as the World Heritage.  
2. The stone tablets are inscribed with the names of more than 2300 Doctors who  
passed the royal examinations throughout its history.
3. The stone tablets in the Temple of Literature in Ha Noi are unique because they  
are different from those in other Asian countries.
4. Viet Nam has made a lot of efforts to preserve and promote its heritage.  
5. The recognition of UNESCO helps to make people more aware of the need of  
heritage preservation.

II. Read the passage about the Temple of Literature, and then answer the questions.

The Temple of Literature is about 10 minutes away from Hoan
Kiem Lake. It was constructed in 1070 under Ly Thanh Tong’s dynasty,
first to honor Confucius and nowadays to celebrate the doctorates and high

rank scholars of Vietnam. In 1076, Emperor Ly Nhan Tong continued the work and built the Imperial Academy
as the first university of Vietnam.
The temple is divided into five courtyards. The first courtyard is from the main gate to Dai Trung Gate. The
second is with Khue Van Pavilion. The pavilion symbol is used on all street signs of Ha Noi. The third
courtyard is the place where doctorate names were listed on the stone tablets above tortoise backs. The fourth
courtyard is dedicated for Confucius and his 72 honoured students, as well as Chu Van An - one of the most
famous teachers at the Imperial Academy. The last is also the farthest courtyard is Thai Hoc House, which was
used as the Imperial Academy. Thai Hoc House holds a small collection of old-time costumes for students and
scholars.
