History books recorded that the first film with sound was The Jazz Singer in 1927. But soundfilms, or talkies, did not suddenly appear after years of silent screenings . From the earliest publicperformances in 1896, films were accompanied by music and sound effects. These were produced by asingle pianist, a small band, or a full-scale orchestra; large movie theatres could buy sound-effectmachines. Research into sound that was reproduced at exactly at the same time as the pictures - called"synchronized sound" – began soon after the very first films were shown. With synchronized sound,characters on the movie screen could sing and speak. As early as 1896, the newly invented gramophone,which played a large disc carrying music and dialogue, was used as a sound system. The biggestdisadvantage was that the sound and pictures could become unsynchronized if, for example, thegramophone needle jumped or if the speed of the projector changed. This system was only effective for asingle song or dialogue sequence. In the "sound-on-film" system, sound was recorded as a series of marks on celluloid which couldbe read by an optical sensor. These signals would be placed on the film alongside the image,guaranteeing synchronization. Short feature films were produced in this way as early as 1922. Thissystem eventually brought us "talking pictures".Câu 3: The passage is mainly about the ______________.A. research into sound reproduction.

Most dust devils are only a few meters in diameter and reach heights nogreater than about 100 meters. Further, these whirlwinds are usually short-lived microscale phenomena:most form and die out within minutes. Unlike tornadoes, which are associated with clouds, dust devilsform on days when clear skies prevail . Further, these whirlwinds form from the ground upward, exactlythe opposite of tornadoes. Because surface heating is critical to their formation, dust devils occur mostfrequently in the afternoon, when surface temperatures are highest. Dust devils form when the hot surface of the earth warms the air above it. When the air near thesurface is considerably warmer than the air a few tens of meters overhead, the layer of air near Earth’ssurface becomes unstable. In this situation, warm surface air begins to rise, causing air near the ground tobe drawn into the developing whirlwind. A light wind will start this rising air to rotate, and once therotation has begun, it becomes faster due to the same physical principle that causes ice-skaters to spinfaster as they pull their arms closer to their body. As the inwardly spiraling air rises, it carries sand, dust,and other loose debris tens of meters into the air. It is this material that makes a dust devil visible.Occasionally, dust devils form above ground covered with vegetation. Under these conditions, thevortices may go undetected unless they interact with objects at the surface. Most dust devils are small and short-lived; consequently, they are not generally destructive.Occasionally, however, these whirlwinds grow to be 100 meters or more in diameter and over a kilometerhigh. Larger and more vigorous dust devils have a longer lifetime than smaller ones. One large dust devil,with a height of about 750 meters, lasted for seven hours as it traveled 64 kilometers in western Utah.With winds that whirl at speeds that may reach 100 kilometers per hour, such large dust devils can doconsiderable damage.Câu 39: The phrase “ their more destructive cousins ” in the paragraph refers to_______.A. whirlwinds B. tornadoes C. dust devils D. arid regionsCâu 40: The word “ prevail ” in line 7 is closest in meaning to ______.A. increase B. dominate C. return D. appearCâu 41: The word “ critical ” in line 8 is closest in meaning to ______.A. useful B. unique C. opposed D. essentialCâu 42: According to the first paragraph, tornadoes and dust devils differ in all of the following respectsEXCEPT______.A. their size and durationB. the weather conditions that favor their formationC. how often they occur in populated areas thuvienhoclieu .com Trang 4thuvienhoclieu .comD. how they formCâu 43: Why does the author mention ice-skaters in the second paragraph?A. To explain the effect of wind on the rotation of ice-skatersB. To emphasize that whirlwinds move independentlyC. To compare the direction of movement in a skater’s rotation to the direction of a whirlwind’s movementD. To explain the motion of dust devils in familiar termsCâu 44: According to the second paragraph, what makes the situation in which a dust devil formsunstable?A. The fact that a layer of cool air is above a layer of warm air.B. The movement of air tens of meters above Earth’s surface.C. The tendency of dust and other debris to be drawn into the air.D. The fact that winds tend to disturb the warm surface air.Câu 45: In the third paragraph, why does the author mention a large dust devil in western Utah?A. To suggest that there is little difference between a large dust devil and a tornado.B. To argue that western Utah tends to have unusually large dust devils.C. To illustrate the relationship between size and duration of dust devils.D. To give an example of a large dust devil that was originally misclassified as a tornado.Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate thecorrect word from 46 to 50In the U.S., (46)________ the dialogue of inclusion is relatively advanced, even the mention ofthe word “diversity” can lead to anxiety and conflict.
