NGÂN HÀNG CÂU HỎI 4.1.Câu hỏi loại 1 1. The four- stroke cycle Induction stroke with the inlet valve open and the exhaust valve shut, the piston moves down the cylinder create a partial vacuum. This partial vacuum draws in the atomized fuel from the carburettor into the cylinder. Compression stroke with both the inlet and exhaust valve closed, the piston moves up the cylinder, compressing the fuel mixture. Just before the end of the stroke, an electric spark across the points of the sparking plug ignites the petrol and air mixture. Power stroke Both valves remain closed. During the tiny interval of time required for flame to establish itself, the piston has reached its highest position in the cylinder. The gas generated by the burning fuel now expands rapidly, driving the piston down the cylinder. This downward push is converted into a rotary movement by the connecting rod and crankshaft. A water jacket contained within the cylinder walls helps to conduct away the heat generated during this burning and thus keeps the engine cool. Exhaust stroke The exhaust valve opens but the inlet valve remains shut. The piston moves up the cylinder, pushing the exhaust gas out through the exhaust valve. With the completion of the exhaust stroke the cycle begins again. Questions: 1. Say which word in the text has the same meaning as “a flash of light” 2. Find in the text which word means “produced” 3. In the text which word has the same meaning as “closed” 4. In power stroke what causes the piston to move down the cylinder? 5. There are three differences between Induction and Exhaust stroke. What are they? 6. In compression stroke when does the ignition start? 2. Consumption of energy resources, (e.g. turning on a light) is apparently harmless. However, producing that energy requires resources and contributes to air and water pollution. Many electric power plants burn coal oil or natural gas in order to generate electricity for energy needs. While burning these fossil fuels produces a readily available and instantaneous supply of electricity, it also generates air pollutants including carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur dioxide and trioxide (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). Carbon dioxide is an important greenhouse gas which is thought to be responsible for some fraction of the rapid increase in global warming. Burning fossil fuels for electricity generation also releases trace metals such as beryllium, cadmium, chromium, copper, manganese, mercury, nickel, and silver into the environment, which also act as pollutants. Certain renewable energy technologies do not pollute the environment in the same ways, and therefore can help contribute to a cleaner energy future for the world. Renewable energy technologies available for electricity production include biofuels, solar power, tidal power, wind turbines, hydroelectric power, etc. However, serious environmental concerns have been articulated by several environmental activists regarding these modes of electricity generation. According to them, some pollution is invariably produced during the manufacture and retirement of the materials associated with the machinery used in these technologies. A central way to avoid downsides of expanding energy production is energy conservation. Questions: 1.Does consumption of energy make the air and water polluted? 2.To generate electricity what are burned by many electric power plants? 3. What air pollutant generated while burning fossil fuels has a great contribution to global warming? 4.What trace metals that pollute the environment are released while burning fossil fuels? 5.What do renewable energy technologies consist of? 6.What are the disadvantages of using renewable energy technologies? 3. Jet engines The three most common types of jet engines are the turbojet, turboprop, and turbofan. Air entering a turbojet engine is compressed and passed into a combustion chamber to be oxidized. Energy produced by the burning fuel spins the turbine that drives the compressor, creating an effective power cycle. Turboprop engines are driven almost entirely by a propeller mounted in the front of the engine, deriving only 10% of their thrust from the exhaust jet. Turbofans combine the hot air jet with bypassed air from a fan, also driven by the turbine. The use of bypass air creates a quieter engine with greater boost at low speeds, making it a popular choice for commercial airplanes. The turbine or jet engine operates on the principle of Newton’s third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an opposite but equal reaction. A jet sucks air into the front, squeezes the air by pulling it through a series of spinning compressors, mixes it with fuel and ignites the mixture, which then explodes with great force rearward through the exhaust nozzle. The rearward force is balanced with an equal force that pushes forward the jet engine and the airplane attached to it. A rocket engine operates in the same principle except that, in order to operate in the airless vacuum of space, the rocket must carry along with its own air, in the front of solid propellant or liquid oxidizer for combustion. Questions: 1. What does “it” (paragragh 1) refer to ? 2. What happens to the air after it enters the turbojet engine? 3. What does “which” (paragragh 2, line 1) refer to ? 4. What word in paragragh 1 has the same meaning as “completely”? 5. How is a rocket engine different from a jet engine? 6. What then explodes with great force rearward through the exhaust nozzle? 4. Today engines can produce enough power to lift the heaviest weights and drive the largest machines. The most powerful engine is the rocket engine, it can blast a spacecraft away from the pull of the Earth's gravity and out into space. The engine that powers almost the world's cars is the internal-combustion engine. It uses the power of gases created by exploding fuel to produce movement. A mixture of air and tiny droplets of gasoline enters the engine's cylinders, each of which contains a piston. An electrical spark ignites the fuel mixture, producing gases which thrust each piston down. Many trains and trucks have been powered by diesel engine, which are internal- combustion engines that burn diesel fuel instead of gasoline. The engine works in the same way as a gasoline-fueled engine, but does not have spark plugs. Instead, each cylinder has an injector that squirts diesel fuel into the cylinder. The piston compresses the air, making it very hot. The hot air makes the diesel fuel explode. If we use only gasoline and diesel engines today, there would be many problems with the environment. These kinds of engines produce waste gases that pollute the air and contribute to the greenhouse effect which causes the Earth's temperature to rise. Fortunately, electric motors, which are clean, quiet, and produce no pollution, have been used as an alternative. In fact, several car manufacturers are developing cars powered by electric motors. However, most electric cars are still experimental. If efficient batteries are successfully developed, electric cars will be an ideal solution for transportation. Questions: 1. Which engine is the most powerful? 2. What kind of engine powers almost all the world's cars? 3. Do diesel engines have spark plugs? 4. How does the diesel engine operate? 5. What happens if we use diesel engines today ? 6. What do several car manufacturers are doing? 5. 1. The mechanical valve is one of the oldest pieces of technology known to mankind. If we define a valve as a device to regulate a flow, then the earliest recorded use of a valve was by Egyptian farmers in pre-Pyramid days to control the flow of Nile flood water in specially dug irrigation channels. The earliest valve was a simple piece of wood slotted down into a stream. Despite the engineering skills of the Romans, a similar device was still being used two thousand years later by Lancashire to cut off the mill stream or raceway, when repairs to the wheel were called for. 2. Whatever was happening on the open stream, it was within pipes that valves were developing. The Romans had piped water coming in from nearby stream to water towers above the city. Basic on/off valves regulated the flow into smaller distribution ducts and thence into private homes. Roman valves were cast in bronze and sealed with wood and animal hair against leaks, and some examples in museums show remarkable similarities to modern domestic taps! 3. The development of modern multi-position valves began in this country with the industrial revolution. The arrival of steam power and bulk material handling required more than simple on/off regulation of flow. With the development of rubber and rubber based materials, valves became more efficient, although 100% shut-off under pressure was still fairly uncommon. Questions 1. What was the purpose of the earliest valve? 2. What do you know about the earliest valve? 3. Were Lancashire millers still using a valve of Roman design 2000 years after its invention? 4. What were Roman valves made of in order to avoid leaks? 5. When did the development of modern multi-position valves begin? 6. With what did valves become more efficient? 4.2.Câu hỏi loại 2 I. helping both distribution either including mechanics help cut distribute weight accidents mechanisms appliances includes rotate 1.
