 The following text is for questions 25 to 27.

A flood is an overflow of water that submerges land that is usually dry. The European Union
(EU) Floods Directive defines a flood as a covering by water of land not normally covered by
water. In the sense of “flowing water”, the word may also be applied to the inflow of the tide.

Flooding may occur as an overflow of water from water bodies, such as a river, lake, or ocean, in
which the water overtops or breaks levees, resulting in some of that water escaping its usual
boundaries, or it may occur due to an accumulation of rainwater on saturated ground in an a real
flood. While the size of a lake or other body of water will vary with seasonal changes in
precipitation and snow melt, these changes in size are unlikely to be considered significant unless
they flood property or drown domestic animals.

Floods can also occur in rivers when the flow rate exceeds the capacity of the river channel,
particularly at bends or meanders in the waterway. Floods often cause damage to homes and
businesses if they are in the natural flood plains of rivers. While river in flood damage can be
eliminated by moving away from rivers and other bodies of water, people have traditionally lived
and worked by rivers because the land is usually flat and fertile and because rivers provide easy
travel and access to commerce and industry.

Some floods develop slowly, while others such as flash floods, can develop in just a few minutes
and without visible signs of rain. Additionally, floods can be local, impacting a neighborhood or
community, or very large, affecting entire river basins.

25. What is the effect of the flood based on the text?

A. Economical and industry development becomes faster
B. The society life will be better in supporting the government.
C. Many people live in the bank of the river while looking for the fish
D. The decreasing of economic field and many buildings becomes damage.

26. What does the first paragraph tell us about?

A. The victims of the flood
B. The definition of the flood
C. The characteristic of the flood
D. The cause and effect of the flood

27. “it may occur due to an accumulation of rainwater”.

The underlined phrase has similar meaning with . . . .
A. Put off
B. Lack off
C. In spite of
D. As a result of
