Third
Term Exam
Part One: Reading
Read the text
carefully then do the activities:
As human beings cannot change the
forces which provoke natural catastrophes, they do their best and use their
intelligence to find the most efficient solutions to obtain the maximum of
protection against their destructive effects. It is naturally scientists and
inventors who are expected to realise this task because it needs exceptional
skills and patient efforts which often necessitate many years of careful
research and intense investigation.
The whole operation moves through
several steps. At the beginning, it is essential to conduct detailed
observations to understand the phenomenon and have an accurate view about its
manifestations, its frequency; in addition to the places where it happens. Whether
it is earthquakes, volcanoes, cyclones or drought, the same process is adopted.
Once enough evidence is collected about them, the second phase starts, and this
one consists of thinking about devising practical methods that will provide the
exposed populations with sufficient opportunities to reduce the violent effects
of the imminent dangers. The authorities are informed about the results of the
studies and give recommendations to everyone about the realities which are
examined.
When the case is connected with
earthquakes, the areas that are usually stricken by such disasters are listed
and instruments for their detection are installed. Besides, experiments are
continuously made in laboratories to find resistant materials and reliable
systems to integrate in the new constructions so that these ones will stand the
furious actions nature releases at such moments. It is in this way that human
beings get progressively armed with appropriate means thanks to which they
avoid getting crushed by the mighty forces that shake the planet now and then.
