     Three years ago,I worked in London for half a year. It was the first time I went there,so I didn't know the way. I always needed some help. But I found some Englishmen couldn't help me.

      One day, I wanted to go to a post office. I asked an old man about the way. u Excuse me. Is there a post office near here?" 1 asked. The old man turned back,looked at me and said something quickly. When he found I couldn't understand him,he took out a piece of paper and wrote down "Sorry,I dorft know.

Where is the nearest post office,please?" He didn't answer me carefully and clearly "I am foreigner (外国人) ，"1 said. This time,he showed me the way more slowly. But I couldn't understand him,either.

      Now satellites are helping to forecast (预测) the weather. They are in space,and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere (大气) ，because this is where the weather forms (形成) .They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists (气象学家) can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures,the scientists can often say how the weather will change.

     Today,nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures,the meteorologists compare (t匕较) them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change,too. In their next weather forecast,the meteorologists can say this.

      So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented,the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon,perhaps,they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead (提前) .

       D. the pictures can forecast the weather

       C. before they received satellite pictures

       D. during they study satellite pictures

    (   ) 14. Maybe we'll soon be able to forecast the weather for       .

       A. one day   B. two days
