But there are a few people who will get into their cars and go to the center of the storm. These people risk(冒危险) their lives for the excitement of watching the storm close up. “Storm chasing(追逐)” is becoming a popular hobby, especially in the Midwest of the United States, where there are many storms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by looking through the Internet for the latest weather reports, and then drives up to 1,000 kilometers to where the storm will be and waits for it to develop. Although anyone can do it, storm chasing is very dangerous. The power(力量) of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or break a whole house in a minute. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents. If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season. Storm chasing is not all risk and excitement. “Storm chasing is 95% of driving,” says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing. “Sometimes you can sit around for hours, waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few rains.” However, for storm chasers, it is enough. “When you get close to a storm, it is the most exciting picture you will ever see in your life,” says Jasper Morley. “Every storm is an example of the power of nature. It is the greatest show on Earth.” 4．What do storm chasers do before beginning their storm chasing? A．Get into the car for safety. B．Go to the center of the storm. C．Wait for the storm to develop. D．Find information about a coming storm. 5．When is a good time for storm chasing in the west of the United States? A．January. B．May. C．September. D．November. 6．What should beginners of storm chasing do? A．Get close to a storm. B．Drive in a heavy rain. C．Join others to keep safe. D．Wait for the storm in the car. 7．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Taking Risks B．Advice on Safety C．Storm Chasing, a Popular Hobby D．Power of Storms 【答案】4．D 5．B 6．C 7．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了什么是风暴追逐者，他们的做法，背后的原因，危险性以及价值等。 4．细节理解题。根据“A storm chaser begins the day by looking through the Internet for the latest weather reports”可知，会先查询有关即将到来风暴的相关信息，故选D。 5．细节理解题。根据“where there are many storms between March and July”可知，3月到7月之间是最佳时间，故选B。 6．细节理解题。根据“If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season.”可知，如果你是一个新手，在风暴季节加入一个追逐风暴的团队会更安全，故选C。 7．最佳标题题。根据“‘Storm chasing(追逐)’ is becoming a popular hobby”及全文描述可知，本文主要介绍了一种新爱好“风暴追逐”，故选C。 Jessie and her two younger sisters lived with their mother in an apartment building.

Here are five things you can do to celebrate Earth Day (apart from planting trees) and make this a better world for future generations. Cars, being the greatest source of air pollution, can be left at home this weekend. Traveling by public transport is the better choice. Other greener choices are carpooling, riding a bike or you can also walk if your workplace isn’t that far away from your home. No, we don’t mean you should be dirty. We simply mean to say, don’t take a bath every day. A day or two without a bath won’t harm you, but it will certainly do a lot of good for our planet. Water saved is the planet saved. This is one of the best things you can do. Why? Because it will do you good, too. Volunteer to join other tasks. If you have time, you can plant trees, clean a park or simply come up with ways you can preserve mother Earth. This is one of the most common things that people can do at home, that is, turn off their lights. However, this isn’t something you should do just for a day.

Snowstorms in China’s northeastern province of Heilongjiang have made more than 100 flights canceled and forced expressways(高速公路) and schools to close, local government said. Snowfall of up to 25.8 mm was recorded in cities including Harbin and Mudanjiang, bringing 17-cm-deep snow in some places, according to the province’s meteorological(气象) center. In Jilin province, heavy rains and strong winds have forced many cities to close their primary and middle schools and kindergartens for one or two days, including its capital city Changchun, as well as Songyuan and Baicheng. The Changchun Longjia International Airport has been closed, with a total of 126 flights canceled and 17 flights delayed. Train services at three major railway stations in Changchun have also been partially closed. The National Meteorological Center said snow will continue to lower temperatures by 8 to 10 degrees. The snow system will move toward Northwest and North China, including Xinjiang province and Ningxia province, Beijing and Gansu province. Heavy rainfall is expected in some areas. 1．How many flights have been canceled in Heilongjiang? A．100 flights. B．More than 100 flights. C．Fewer than 100 flights.

When a storm is coming, most people leave the area as quickly as possible and head for safety. But there are a few people who will get into their cars and go to the center of the storm. These people risk(冒危险) their lives for the excitement of watching the storm close up. “Storm chasing(追逐)” is becoming a popular hobby, especially in the Midwest of the United States, where there are many storms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by looking through the Internet for the latest weather reports, and then drives up to 1,000 kilometers to where the storm will be and waits for it to develop. Although anyone can do it, storm chasing is very dangerous. The power(力量) of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or break a whole house in a minute. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents. If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season. Storm chasing is not all risk and excitement. “Storm chasing is 95% of driving,” says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing. “Sometimes you can sit around for hours, waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few rains.” However, for storm chasers, it is enough. “When you get close to a storm, it is the most exciting picture you will ever see in your life,” says Jasper Morley. “Every storm is an example of the power of nature. It is the greatest show on Earth.” 4．What do storm chasers do before beginning their storm chasing? A．Get into the car for safety. B．Go to the center of the storm. C．Wait for the storm to develop. D．Find information about a coming storm. 5．When is a good time for storm chasing in the west of the United States? A．January. B．May. C．September. D．November. 6．What should beginners of storm chasing do? A．Get close to a storm. B．Drive in a heavy rain. C．Join others to keep safe. D．Wait for the storm in the car. 7．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Taking Risks B．Advice on Safety C．Storm Chasing, a Popular Hobby D．Power of Storms Jessie and her two younger sisters lived with their mother in an apartment building. One evening, a fire started on the second floor. The smoke quickly spread (蔓延) through the whole building and the fire alarm went off. All the people ran out of the building.

Recently, 16-year-old Cao Chenzhe from Taizhou, Jiangsu, gave 5,000 yuan to the Disabled Persons’ Federation (残疾人联合会) in Jiangsu to help children. The money was for his brave act of using the Heimlich maneuver (海姆立克急救法) to save a classmate’s life. Cao clearly remembered that day. One evening in March, he was having dinner at the school canteen. Then he saw a classmate’s face turning purple. “Oh no, something is stuck in his throat (喉咙)!” Cao quickly found the problem and used the Heimlich maneuver, Standing behind his classmate, Cao pressed (按压) hard into his chest (胸膛) with upward thrusts (向上推力). After trying many times, a large rice ball came out of the classmate’s throat. Cao learned the Heimlich maneuver during a safety education class at Jiangyan Licai Experimental School. “The teacher showed us how to do it and we practiced with each other,” said Cao. Apart from these classes, the school organizes safety education classes every month and encourages students to take online classes on the Ministry of Education’s online safety education platform (教育部学校安全教育平台).

Every year, the event is celebrated under a different theme. The theme for 2016 is “Trees for the Earth”. Here are five things you can do to celebrate Earth Day (apart from planting trees) and make this a better world for future generations. Cars, being the greatest source of air pollution, can be left at home this weekend. Traveling by public transport is the better choice. Other greener choices are carpooling, riding a bike or you can also walk if your workplace isn’t that far away from your home. No, we don’t mean you should be dirty. We simply mean to say, don’t take a bath every day. A day or two without a bath won’t harm you, but it will certainly do a lot of good for our planet. Water saved is the planet saved. This is one of the best things you can do. Why? Because it will do you good, too. Volunteer to join other tasks. If you have time, you can plant trees, clean a park or simply come up with ways you can preserve mother Earth. This is one of the most common things that people can do at home, that is, turn off their lights. However, this isn’t something you should do just for a day. Save energy by turning off all electricity points whenever they are not in use. A．Don’t Forget to Leave Your Cars at Home B．Volunteer Yourself C． Green-up Your Home     D．Take a Shower Every Day E.
