VI. Read the passage carefully.(1.0 point)
After inventing dynamite, Swedish-born Alfred Nobel became a very rich man. However, he foresaw its universally destructive powers too late. Nobel preferred not to be remembered as the inventor of dynamite, so in 1895, just two weeks before his death, he created a fund to be used for awarding prizes to people who had made worthwhile contributions to mankind. Originally there were five awards: literature, physics, chemistry, medicine and peace. Economics was added in 1968, just sixty-seven years after the first awards ceremony. Nobel's original legacy of nine million dollars was invested, and the interest on this sum is used for the awards which vary from $30,000 to $125,000.
Every year on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel's death, the awards (gold medal, illuminated diploma, and money) are presented to the winners. Sometimes politics plays an important role in the judges' decisions. Americans have won numerous science awards, but relatively few literature prizes. No awards were presented from 1940 to 1942 at the beginning of World War II Some people have won two prizes, but this is rare; others have shared their prizes.

II. READING
1. Read the passage and answer the questions. Circle A, B, or C.
The Moon is approximately 384,400 kilometers from the Earth. Its diameter is 3,479 kilometers, about 1/4 the diameter of Earth. The average temperature on the surface of the Moon during the day is 107°C, hot enough to boil water on Earth. During the night, the average temperature drops to −153°C.
Because of its smaller size and mass, the gravity of the Moon is about 1/6 the gravity on the Earth. That means that a person who weighs 180 pounds on Earth would only weigh 30 pounds if measured on the Moon.
The force of gravity from the Moon affects Earth. Its gravity reaches Earth and pulls the oceans toward the Moon, causing the tides. The gravity from the Sun also affects the tides. The highest tides will always occur when the Moon and Sun are aligned. That is when there is a New Moon or a Full Moon.

A. A comparison between the Moon and Earth
B. Physical characteristics of the Moon

4. What can we learn about the tides?
A. They happen twice a month at New Moon and Full Moon.

Dear Mary,
How are you? I must write to tell you about the natural disaster I saw on TV this morning. It was a huge tsunami in Japan two days ago. At first, there was a very strong earthquake, and then the tsunami swept through the coastal areas of northern Japan.
It was so devastating. What used to be busy and lively cities now has become a vast area of debris. Houses were totally destroyed, and pieces of furniture and means of transport were scattered everywhere. Luckily, thanks to early warning, there was no human loss. I felt terrible .I intend to donate some of my pocket money to help the Japanese people.Would you like to join me?
Love
