Questions 21 - 24
Questions 21
Đáp án: C
Vị trí:
MICHELLE: But it was a huge eruption and it had such devastating consequences.
ADAM: It was great there were so many primary sources to look at. It really gives you a sense of how catastrophic the volcano was. People were really trying to make sense of the science for the first time.
MICHELLE: That's right. But what I found more significant was how it impacted directly and indirectly on political events, as well as having massive social and economic consequences.

Câu hỏi | Why do the students think the Laki eruption of 1783 is so important? A. It was the most severe eruption in modern times. B. It led to the formal study of volcanoes. C. It had a profound effect on society. |

Question 22
Đáp án: A
Vị trí:
MICHELLE: The observations made by people at the time were interesting, weren't they? l mean, they all gave a pretty consistent account of what happened, even if they didn't always use the same terminology.
ADAM: Yeah. I was surprised there were so many weather stations established by that time so, you know, you can see how the weather changed, often by the hour.
Giải thích đáp án:
Câu hỏi | What surprised Adam about observations made at the time? A. the number of places producing them B. the contradictions in them C. the lack of scientific data to support them |

Question 23
Đáp án: B
Vị trí:
MICHELLE: Writers at the time talked about the Laki haze to describe the volcanic fog that spread across Europe. They all realised that this wasn't the sort of fog they were used to and of course this was in pre-industrial times so they hadn't experienced sulphur-smelling fog before.
ADAM: No, that's true.
MICHELLE: Reports from the period blamed the haze for an increase in headaches, respiratory issues and asthma attacks. And they all describe how it covered the sun and made it look a strange red colour.
Giải thích đáp án:
Câu hỏi | According to Michelle, what did the contemporary sources say about the Laki haze? A. People thought it was similar to ordinary fog. B. It was associated with health issues. C. It completely blocked out the sun for weeks. |

Question 24
Đáp án: B
Vị trí:
MICHELLE: It's interesting that Benjamin Franklin wrote about the haze. Did you read that? He was the American ambassador in Paris at the time.
ADAM: Yeah. At first no one realised that the haze was caused by the volcanic eruption in Iceland.
MICHELLE: It was Benjamin Franklin who realised that before anyone else.
ADAM: He's often credited with that, apparently. But a French naturalist beat him to it. I can't remember his name. I'd have to look it up. Then other naturalists had the same idea - all independently of each other.
Giải thích đáp án:
Câu hỏi | Adam corrects Michelle when she claims that Benjamin Franklin A. came to the wrong conclusion about the cause of the haze. B. was the first to identify the reason for the haze. C. supported the opinions of other observers about the haze. |

Question 25 -26
Đáp án: 25 -A; 26 -B
Vị trí:
ADAM: Mmm. You'd expect that and the fact that the volcanic ash drifted so swiftly but not that the effects would go on for so long. Or that two years after the eruption, strange weather events were being reported as far away as North America and North Africa.
MICHELLE: No. I found all that hard to believe too. It must have been terrible and there was nothing anyone could do about it, even if they knew the ash cloud was coming in their direction.
Giải thích đáp án:
Câu hỏi | Which TWO issues following the Laki eruption surprised the students? A. how widespread the effects were B. how long-lasting the effects were C. the number of deaths it caused D. the speed at which the volcanic ash cloud spread E. how people ignored the warning signs |

Question 27 - 30
Question 27
Đáp án: D
Vị trí: Starting with Iceland, where the impact on farming was devastating.
One of the most dramatic things there was the effect on livestock as they grazed in the fields. They were poisoned because they ate vegetation that had been contaminated with fluorine as a result of the volcanic fallout.

Question 28
Đáp án: A
Vị trí: In Egypt, the bizarre weather patterns led to a severe drought and as a result the Nile didn't flood, which meant the crops all failed.
It's so far from where the eruption happened and yet the famine there led to more people dying than any other country.
