G. Read the text and choose the correct answer for questions 37-41.

Have you ever wondered if the weather affects your mood and behaviour? If you have, then you’re right! The way you think and feel can actually change depending on the weather.

Many people complain of feeling ‘down’ or having ‘the blues’ in winter. This may be because there isn’t as much sunshine in the winter and our brains respond to natural light. In Britain, for example, many people suffer from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) which makes them tired and bad-tempered because there is little sunlight in the often grey and cloudy United Kingdom.

Of course, we all know that a bright, sunny day can make us really cheerful and put us in a good mood. In New York City, however, the police blame hot weather for rises in crime. During heatwaves in the summer crime levels can rise as people get angry and aggressive because of the change in temperature.

Some scientists have discovered that low air pressure can cause people to have problems concentrating and make them forgetful. So, if you’re the kind of person that’s always forgetting where you left your house keys, blame it on the weather!

What about the wind? Does it drive you mad? It actually could be making you crazy! Strong and constant winds really can get to you. Children tend to be more troublesome in school and behave badly when it’s windy. Another result of windy weather is that there are more traffic accidents. Therefore you should also take extra care while driving.

So, next time you watch the weather report it could even predict your mood for the day!

e.g. The article is about

A predicting the weather.

B how the weather changes how we feel.

C sicknesses caused by the weather.

D changes in the seasons.

37 People in Britain are said to suffer from SAD in winter because

A there isn’t a lot of sunshine.

B there aren’t many clouds.

C they are tired.

D their brains don’t respond.

38 Summer heatwaves are blamed for

A people becoming forgetful.

B car accidents.

C crime levels getting higher.

D making it difficult to concentrate.

39 If you are forgetful, it could be because

A of rain.

B of a heatwave.

C of low pressure in the air.

D of no air pressure.

40 During windy weather children might

A have more traffic accidents.

B be more careful at school.

C be more tired.

D not be well-behaved.

41 The writer suggests that when it’s windy

A teachers should close the windows.

B drivers should be more careful.

C people should take care crossing the road.

D children should try to be happy.

G. Read the text and choose the correct answer for questions 37-41.

One of the worst storms ever to hit the United States was Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. The storm flooded 80% of the city of New Orleans. The tsunami in the Indian ocean in December 2004 was also a huge disaster that killed 230,000 people. But the reasons for terrible weather conditions have lead to a lot of disagreement between scientists and meteorologists around the world.

Some experts say that in the past 100 years there haven’t been any real major changes in the weather. They say that harsh weather is something that occurs naturally, in cycles, and that it isn’t getting any worse. The reason that people think it is getting worse is due to the fact that, nowadays, there is more information on weather events around the world in newspapers, on the radio and on television.

There are, however, scientists who believe that global warming is affecting the climate. They believe that greenhouse gases are responsible for making the Earth warmer. Some of these gases are caused by people and businesses polluting the environment.

Which theory do you agree with? The truth is, with more research and discussion into the reasons for harsh weather conditions, the brighter the world’s future will be.

A one of the worst storms in history.

B global warming.

37 Because of Hurricane Katrina

A most of New Orleans was covered in water.

B New Orleans was hit by a tsunami.

C New Orleans lost 80% of its water.

D 230,000 people were killed.

38 Experts around the world

A agree on the reasons for bad weather.

B do not agree about the reasons for bad weather.

C are meteorologists.

D are changing the weather.

39 According to some scientists, in the past 100 years

A there are more cycles.

B there have been more tsunamis.

C people have been watching too much television.

D the weather has not become worse.

40 One reason for the harsh weather could be because

A there is more information about people.

B we see and hear more about the weather.

C more people travel around the world.

D we don’t read enough newspapers.
