We each have a memory. That’s why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again. Many of the great men of the world have got surprising memories.
A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his mother language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages as easily as one because they hear, remember and speak two languages every day. In school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.
But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises.

Whether you live in Seattle or the Sahara desert, the time has come to invest in a good raincoat or umbrella, a new study suggests.
As global temperatures continue to rise, more “extreme rain” events—intense, cats-and-dogs downpours—can be expected, said the study, published Monday in the journal Nature Climate Change. And that, scientists said, means an increased flood risk, particularly for the world’s driest areas. The study challenges the idea that global warming is causing dry areas to become drier and wet areas wetter.
“In both wet and dry regions, we see these great increases in heavy precipitation（冰雹）,” lead author Markus Donat, a climate scientist at the University of New South Wales, told Nature.
Donat and his team collected data from 1951 to 2010 on extreme precipitation events from 11, 000 weather stations around the world, Nature reported.
In that time, the number of days with “extreme precipitation” increased 1 percent to 2 percent per decade.
“We found a strong relationship between global warming and an increase in rainfall, particularly in areas outside of the tropics,” Donat said in a statement.
“Importantly, this research suggests we will see these extreme rainfall events increases at regional levels in dry areas, not just as an average across the globe,” Donat added.
Peter Stott, a senior climate scientist at Met Office, told Climate Central that the study’s findings are important, because more violent rainfall and flooding will “challenge our capability to adapt to a rapidly changing climate.”
As Nature reported, the research aligns（结盟）with a 2015 study that found global warming has led to a sharp increase in record-breaking precipitation events. Donat told Nature that his study should come as a warning to world governments.
1.Which of the following is one of the study’s findings?
A. Global warming is causing dry areas to become drier and wet areas wetter.
B. Extreme rain events can be expected at regional levels in dry areas.
C. Extreme rainfall events increase at regional levels in wet areas.
D. Rainfall increases particularly in the tropics areas.
2.Why does Scott think the findings are important?
A. The research aligns with a 2015 study.
B. They are about extreme precipitation events.
C. They remind us to adjust to rapid climate changes.
D. The study involves many famous climate scientists.
3.The purpose of the study is to ______.
A. encourage investors to start business in Seattle or the Sahara desert
B. persuade people to take a raincoat or an umbrella with them
C. challenge the previous findings of research on climate
D. warn world governments to focus on global warming

The deadliest Ebola(埃博拉病毒) outbreak in recorded history is happening right now. The outbreak is unprecedented(空前的) both in the number of people who have gotten sick and in the geographic scope. And so far it’s been a long battle that doesn’t appear to be slowing down.
Ebola is both rare and very deadly. Since the first outbreak in 1976, Ebola viruses have infected thousands of people and killed roughly killed 60 percent of them. Symptoms can come on quickly and kill fast.
The current outbreak started in Guinea sometime in late 2013 or early 2014. It has since spread to Sierra Leone and Liberia, including some capital cities. And one infected patient traveled on a plane to Nigeria, where he spread the disease to several others and then died. Cases have also popped up in various other countries throughout the world, including in Dallas and New York City in the United States.
The Ebola virus has now hit many countries, including Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Senegal, and the United States. The virus, which starts off with flu-like symptoms and sometimes ends with bleeding, has infected about 6,500 people and killed more than 3,000 since this winter, according to the World Health Organization on September 30, 2014.
There are some social and political factors contributing to the current disaster. Because this is the first major Ebola outbreak in West Africa, many of the region’s health workers didn’t have experience or training in how to protect themselves or care for patients with this disease.
Journalist David Quammen put it well in a recent New York Times article, “Ebola is more dangerous to humans than perhaps any known virus on Earth, except rabies(狂犬病) and HIV. And it does its damage much faster than either.”
Hopefully, researchers are working to find drugs, including a recent $50 million push at the National Institutes of Health. And scientists are working on vaccines(疫苗), including looking into ones that might be able to help wild chimpanzees, which are also susceptible to the disease. The first human Ebola vaccine trial is scheduled to start in the spring of 2015.
1.According to the passage, which of the following about Ebola is true?
A. The Ebola outbreak now is the biggest one in history.
B. Ebola breaks out quickly but it is under control now.
C. Ebola is deadly and common so it kills a lot of people.
D. Ebola killed about 60 thousand people quickly in 1976.
2.The Ebola virus was brought to Nigeria by .
A. a flying bird B. an infected passenger
C. hot African weather D. a health organization
3.The last paragraph mainly tells us that .
A. it will be a huge waste when researchers spend lots of money finding a cure
B. the vaccines can be effective to wild chimpanzees but not to the humans
C. there will be an optimistic future in which we can defeat the disease
D. we can use the vaccine to cure the patients completely in 2015’s spring
4.What is the best title of the passage?
A. Ebola ---- The African Local Disaster
B. Ebola ---- The Newly-Found Disease
C. Ebola ---- A More Effective Vaccine
D. Ebola ---- The Deadly Virus Outbreak
