  Many people go to school for an education.They learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics.Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living.School education is very important and useful.Yet no one can learn everything from school.A teacher, no matter how much he knows can not teach his students everything they want to know.The teacher's job is to show his students how to learn.He teaches them how to read and how to think.So much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.

  It is always more important to study by oneself than to learn by heart some facts or a formula(公式).It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in maths.But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem.Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didn't get everything from school.But they were all so successful.They invented so many things for mankind.The reason for their success is that they worked hard all their lives, not wasting a single moment.They would ask many questions as they read and they did thousands of experiments.

  Above all, they knew how to use their brains.

  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 straight for the center of the storm. These people are willing to risk (冒……危险) being killed by floods or 100-kilometer-an-hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up.

  “Storm chasing (追逐) ” is becoming an increasingly popular hobby (喜好), especially in the Midwest of the United States, where there are frequent storms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by checking 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 extremely dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain. If you are a beginner,it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season.

  Even then, storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement. “Storm chasing is 95% 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 light showers. ”

  However, for storm chasers, it is all worth it. “When you get close to a storm, it is the most exciting sight 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. ”

(2) Beginners of storm chasing are advised
