Why do earthquakes happen?
An earthquake is a sudden movement or trembling in the (1) Gentle earth
tremors can occur anywhere, but the most severe earthquakes usually occur near the edges
of the large "plates" that make up the earth's crust.
These plates float on the mantle below the crust, and move and grind against each

other. The plates move a few centimeters each year, causing (2) ranges such as the
Himalayas to increase in height. The continents form a part of the plates, and move with
them. Some of the plates slide past (3) another, and sometimes one plate is pushed
underneath another. Strain and pressure slowly build up along the fault lines between the
plates, and the quick release of this strain causes an earthquake.
The point where an earthquake shock originates is called the focus, and the point
immmediately above this on the earth' s surface is called the epicenter. Shock waves
radiate out from the focus. It is estimated that there are over a million earthquakes each
year, but most of them are quite weak. Earth tremors at the bottom of the ocean can cause
tsunami which can rise to more than 30 meters.
Seismology is the study of earthquakes, and seismograph is a sensitive (4) that
records vibrations of the earth. Earthquakes are measured by the Richter scale, and major
earthquakes usually register (5) 7 and 9 on this scale.
trembling: sự rung tremor (n): sự chấn động crust (n): vỏ trái đất
strain (n): sức căng pressure (n):áp lực, sức ép register (v): ghi, chỉ ra
radiate (v):lan, tỏa ra epicenter (n):trung tâm quả đất seismology (n): địa chấn học
1. A. sky B. earth C. water D. soil
2. A. kitchen B. hill C. river D. mountain
3. A. one B. each C. every D. an
4. A. vehicle B. instrument C. person D. machine
5. A. from B. over C. about D. between

Christmas in britain
Christmas is the biggest festival of the year in most of Britain. Celebrations start
properly on 24 December, Christmas Eve, although there have been several weeks of
preparation beforehand. The Christmas tree and all the presents, food, drinks and
decorations have been bought. Christmas cards have already been sent to friends and
relations. About a week before Christmas, people usually put up their decorations and
decorate the Christmas tree with lights, various colored decorations and an angel on the
top. Family presents are usually put under the tree.

Christmas is a family celebration and many of the customs center on children. When
they go to bed on Christmas Eve, children hang up a pillow case or a sack for their
presents. (Traditionally, it should be a stocking, but a stocking wouldn't hold enough to
satisfy today's kid.) While the children were asleep, so the custom goes, Father Christmas,
or Santa Claus, comes (but only to children who have been good). He travels from the
North Pole in a sleigh which is pulled by reindeer. After landing on the roof, Father
Christmas climbs down the chimney and puts presents in the sacks that children have left
out.
