【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Peter Owen has been making wigs (假发) since the 1980s. He has made wigs for the stars of more than seventy movies, including Tom Hanks in Philadelphia, Johnny Depp in Sleepy Hollow, and Nicole Kidman in The Others. One of his biggest jobs so far has been designing the hair and make-up(化妆) for the three Lord of the Rings movies. He had just six weeks to design and make more than a hundred wigs, each one a different style, colour, shape and length.
The hair and make-up in a movie are just as important as the costumes(戏装) or the sets. Over the years, Peter has made actors look older, younger, healthy and sick. For one movie he even made a female actor look like a man!“What people don't realize about wigs is that we are not always making people more beautiful,” he says. “Often we are covering up beauty and making them look ordinary.”
All Peter's wigs are hand-made using human hair, so they look as real as possible. This also makes them very expensive―between US$4,500 and US$12,500 each! He knows he's done a good job when people don't realize the star of the movie is wearing a wig. So he was pleased when one newspaper said that Nicole Kidman had dyed(染色) her hair dark brown for a movie. “It was a wig and no one knew that,” he says.
(1)What is Peter Owen's job?
A.An actor
B.A director
C.A wig maker
D.A manager
(2)How many wigs did Peter make for the three Lord of the Rings movies?
A.More than one hundred.
B.Seventy.
C.Sixty.
D.Three hundred.
(3)What special feature(特点)about wigs does Peter mention?
A.They can make people more beautiful.
B.They can change people's hair styles.
C.They can cover up beauty and make people look ordinary.
D.They can make people look younger.
(4)Why are Peter's wigs so expensive?
A.They are made in foreign countries.
B.Peter makes the best wigs.
C.They are only made for rich film makers.
D.They are hand-made using human hair.
(5)Which statement is NOT TRUE about Peter?
A.Peter Owen has made wigs for lots of movies.
B.Designing and making the wigs for The Lord of the Rings was a huge job.
C.If people know the star is wearing a wig, Peter will be happy.
D.Peter can make actors look quite different from their real looks.

【解析】这篇短文主要介绍了假发制作师Peter Owen,他为七十多部电影的明星做过假发。当他发现人们看不出明星戴着假发时,他就非常的高兴,因为他认为自己的假发做的好,可以以假乱真。

(1)C细节理解题。根据短文开头Peter Owen has been making wigs (假发) since the 1980s.可知彼得是个假发制造师。故选C。

(2)A细节理解题。根据One of his biggest jobs so far has been designing the hair and make-up(化妆) for the three Lord of the Rings movies. He had just six weeks to design and make more than a hundred wigs,,故选A。

(3)C细节理解题。根据文章第二段"What people don' t realize about wigs is that we are not always making people more beautiful," he says. "Often we are covering up beauty and making them look ordinary.",人们没有意识到的事情是,我们不只用假发使人们变得漂亮,我们也经常用假发掩盖美丽,使他们看起来很普通。这就是Peter Owen的假发的特别之处。故选C。

(4)D根据文章第三段All Peter's wigs are handmade using human hair, so they look as real as possible. This also makes them very expensive可知,Peter的所有假发都是用人的真发手工制作的,看起来很真实,这就使它们的价格非常昂贵。故选D。

(5)C推理判断题。根据文章的最后一段可知,当人们没有意识到电影明星带了假发的时候,Peter就会非常的高兴,因为他觉得自己做的很好,可以以假乱真,故C选项的表述和文章的意思不符。根据文章He has made wigs for the stars of more than seventy movies可知A的表述是正确的;根据文章第一段He had just six weeks to design and make more than a hundred wigs, each one a different style, color, shape and length.可知B选项的表述是正确的;根据文章第二段可知D选项的表述是正确的。故选C

Have you ever been so worried about something that you have a headache or even can't sleep at night? Then you cannot pay enough attention during a test or in your study. If so, then you know that is stress. You are worried too much about something. The bad feeling in your mind can make you angry, sad, or scared, and can even give you a stomachache or a headache.
However, some kind of stress is good. You might feel excited when you are called to give a speech at school. You feel nervous but excited. This kind of stress can help you to get things well done. And you may do a better job in your test if the stress pushes you to prepare more beforehand(提前).
On the other hand, bad stress can last long if you are unable to come over your problems. You may not feel well, if your parents are having a quarrel, if a family member is badly ill, if you're doing poorly at school, or if anything else makes you unhappy. That kind of stress isn't going to help you. And it can actually let you do worse in your daily life.
The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life. Make sure you get enough sleep and eat properly. Have some regular exercise. You should take some time for fun. Get advice from your parents, teachers and friends. Soon after that, you'll probably get away with your stress.

There are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds.

For example, a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour, which are strong enough to break the buildings along the seaside completely.
Hurricane Dangers
When a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall(降雨), there can be a devastating flood. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. While most of a hurricane has dangerously strong winds, the eye in fact is a calm area in the storm. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that it's over, but before long the wind and rain increase(增长) again as the second part of the hurricane moves through.
Hurricane Safety Tips
There is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction, so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane, be sure to stay inside during the storm. You could be seriously injured(受伤) if you go outside.
