The following text is for questions 23 to 26
About a month ago, I was walking alone on the beach on a warm evening. I had finished all my homework, and I wanted to relax.
Suddenly, I saw two small children who were digging in the sand. They had found something, and they were looking at it. It was big, reddish-brown and made of metal. When I looked at it, I knew immediately that it was an old bomb!
First, I told the children to move away from the bomb. Fortunately, I had my mobile phone with me, so I called the police and told them what we had found. Fifteen minutes later, the police arrived and I explained everything to them. Then I went home again.
The next day, I read the newspaper that the police had blown up the very high explosive bomb. It had been in the sand on the beach for over sixty years. It was from the Second World War, and it was very dangerous!

Read the text to answer questions 39 to 42.
A flood is an overflow of an expanse of water that submerges land, a deluge. It is usually due to the volume of water within a body of water, such as a river or lake, exceeding the total capacity of the body, and as a result some of the water flows or sits outside the normal perimeter of the body. It can also occur in rivers, when the strength of the river is so high that it flows right out of the river channel, usually at corners or meanders. These, of course, are not applicable in such instances as sea flooding.
A flood occurs when an area of land, usually low-lying, is covered with water. The worst floods usually occur when a river overflows its banks. Floods happen when soil and vegetation cannot absorb all the water. The water then runs off the land in quantities that cannot be carried in stream channels or kept in natural ponds or man-made reservoirs.
Periodic floods occur naturally on many rivers, forming an area known as the flood plain. These river floods usually result from heavy rain, sometimes combined with melting snow, which causes the rivers to overflow their banks. A flood that rises and falls rapidly with little or no advance warning is called a flash flood. Flash floods usually result from intense rainfall over a relatively small area, as happened in 2007 with the Sudan floods. Coastal areas are occasionally flooded by high tides caused by severe winds on ocean surfaces, or by tsunami waves caused by undersea earthquakes.
