    　　The famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean, so that the audience could see his hero and heroine in front of it at the end of the film as they said good-bye to each other forever. He sent his camera crew(摄制组)out one evening to film the sunset for him.

    　　The next morning he said to the men,“Have you provided me with that sunset?”

    　　“No, sir,”the men answered.

    　　The director was angry.“Why not?”he asked.

    　　“Well, sir.”one of the men answered, “we're on the east coast here, and the sun sets in the west. We can get you a sunrise over the sea, if necessary, but not a sunset.”

    　　“But I want a sunset!”the director shouted.“Go to the airport, take the next flight to the west coast, and get one.”

    　　But then a young secretary had an idea.“Why don't you photograph a sunrise,”she suggested,“and then play it backwards. It'll look like a sunset.”

    　　“That's a very good idea!”the director said. Then he turned to the camera crew and said,“Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea.”

    　　The camera crew went out early the next morning end filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful bay (海湾). Then at nine o'clock they took it to the director.“Here it is, sir.”they said, and gave it to him. He was very pleased.

    　　They all went into the studio (摄影棚).“All right.”the director explained.“Now our hero and heroine are going to say good-bye. Run the film backwards so that we can see the‘sunset’behind them.”

    　　The“sunset”began, but after a quarter of a minute, the director suddenly put his face in his hands and shouted to the camera crew to stop.

    　　The birds in the film were flying backwards, and the waves on the sea were going away from the beach.

    　　Many people like the feeling of the gentle wind in spring．Many like to see the falling leaves dancing in the wind in autumn．But sometimes, when the wind becomes a storm, it can be very destructive(毁灭性的)．

    　　A series of such storms struck the US last month and caused very serious damage and human pain．

    　　Every year, major storms cause many problems around the world．There is nothing people can do to stop these powerful forces of nature．But new techniques are helping scientists to predict(预测)how, when, and where big storms will happen．The more exact scientists' warnings are, the better people can prepare for the storms．

    　　Predictions are improving．“We've gotten better over the years, especially the last few years,”says Phil Klotzback, a scientist at an American university．How is a storm formed? Even if scientists know where a storm will happen, winds can suddenly change, carrying the storm to a new direction．“For a hurricane to happen, conditions have to be just right,”Klotzback says．

    　　First, the ocean water needs to be warm enough so that it evaporates and rises into the air．As it rises, the vapor(水蒸气)cools and turns back into liquid．This process gives off heat．This produces energy like an engine that causes winds to increase．It drives the formation(形成)of a hurricane．

    　　If wind speeds reach 40 miles per hour, the system is called a“tropical storm”(热带风暴), and it gets a name．At 75 miles per hour, it becomes a hurricane．

    　　Hurricanes that hit the US start when a thunderstorm forms off the coast of Africa．Storms also develop over tropical waters in other parts of the world．

    　　On average, 60 or 70 storms form off Africa every year．About 10 of them get names．There are usually about six hurricanes．Two tend to be very big, with winds of 115 miles per hour or higher．

    　　The hurricane season lasts from June to November．Ninety percent of all hurricanes hit in August, September, and October．

    (1)

    According to the passage, hurricanes usually ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    D．

    cause sea winds to rise and blow over the sea

    (2)

    A．

    begins to move

    gets lost

    　　So far, scientists have named about 1.8 million living species(物种), and that’s just a small part of what probably exists on Earth．With so many plants, animals, fungi, and other organisms covering the planet, it can be tough to figure out what type of spider is crawling up your leg or what kind of bird just flew by．

    　　A soon-to-be-launched Website might help．An international team of researchers has announced the creation of a Web－based Encyclopedia of Life(EOL)．The project aims to catalogue every species on Earth in a single, easy-to-use reference guide．

    　　To get the encyclopedia started, the creators will use information from scientific databases that already exist．And eventually, in special sections of the site, nonscientists with specialized knowledge will join．Gardeners, for example, will be able to record the dates that their flowers first bloom each year．Bird-watchers will be able to input which birds they’ve seen and where．The technology for this kind of tool has only recently become available．

    　　As the EOL develops, you might find it useful for school projects．The site will have special pages for kids who are studying ecosystems in their neighborhoods．To make sure the encyclopedia is accurate, scientists will review much of the information added to it．People who visit the site will be able to choose to skip pages that haven’t been reviewed．

    　　Another convenient characteristic of the EOL is that you’ll be able to pick the level of detail you see to match your interests, age, and current knowledge．If you wanted to learn about polar bears for a science class report, for example, you could use the“novice”setting to get basic information about the animals．On the“expert”setting, on the other hand．you could get much more detailed information about the history, literature, and exploration of polar bears．

    　　It now takes years for scientists to collect all the data they need to describe and analyze species．The creators of the Encyclopedia of Life hope that their new tool will speed that process．

    　　Keep an eye on www.eol.org．Pages will begin to go up sometime next year, and you might find them useful for your school reports．The EOL team might have the basics for all 1.8 million entries online as early as 2017．Someday, you might add your own notes．

    (1)

    What is implied in the last sentence of Paragraph 1?

    B．

    Nonscientists will be able to add their own notes to the website．

    C．

    The kids preparing school reports can not have access to the informat’0 n’

    D．

    You are not free to choose the amount of detailed information．

    What does the underlined word“novice”probably mean in Paragraph 5?

    　　Watching 3D films such as Avatar could give some viewers headaches, experts have warned．

    　　The success of James Cameron's science-fiction blockbuster(卖座的大片), which has already taken more than ＄1 billion(￡600 million)at the box office, is fuelling a surge in popularity for three-dimensional movies and new 3D television sets．

    　　But prolonged viewing may result in an aching head, according to Dr Michael Rosenberg, an ophthalmology(眼科学)professor at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago．

    　　He said："There are a lot of people walking around with very minor eye problems, for example a minor muscle imbalance, which under normal circumstances the brain deals with naturally．"

    　　Watching a 3D movie confronts viewers with an entirely new sensory experience．"That translates into greater mental effort, making it easier to get a headache," he said．

    　　Dr Deborah Friedman, a professor of ophthalmology and neurology(神经学)at the University of Rochester Medical Center in New York, said："If your eyes are a little off to begin with then it's really throwing a whole degree of effort that your brain now needs to exert．This disparity for some people will give them a headache．"

    　　Experts say there are no studies tracking how common it is to get a headache after watching a 3D film．

    　　Rick Heineman, a spokesman for RealD, which provides 3D equipment to cinemas, said headaches and nausea were the main reasons 3D technology never took off before．

    　　But he said new digital technology addresses many of the problems that had previously caused sore heads．

    (1)

    What can we learn from what Dr Michael Rosenberg said?

    [　　]

    A．

    A lot of people prefer walking around with very minor eye problems to sitting silently watching 3D films．

    B．

    The brain can deal with very minor eye problems under normal circumstances naturally．

    C．

    A lot of people haven’t got very minor eye problems when viewing films under normal circumstances．

    D．

    People come into very minor eye problems and a minor muscle imbalance when watching 3D films．

    (2)

    What does the underlined word “prolonged” in the 3rd paragraph mean?

    [　　]

    A．

    continuous

    B．

    constant

    C．

    regular

    D．

    long-time

    (3)

    According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

    [　　]

    A．

    It has taken less than ＄1 billion to make the popularity of three-dimensional movies and new 3D television sets．

    B．

    Watching a 3D movie leaves viewers confronted with an entirely new sensory experience．

    C．

    There are studies tracking how common it is to get a headache after watching a 3D film．

    D．

    Rick Heineman said that 3D technology would never take off headaches and nausea in future．

    (4)

    What’s the main idea of the passage?

    [　　]

    A．

    The expert warns the readers not to watch 3D films because of resulting in an aching head．

    B．

    New digital technology gives viewers headaches and eye problems．

    C．

    The experts are studying how to get rid of many of the problems that have previously caused sore heads．

    D．

    Viewing 3D films may result in some side-effect problems such as headaches．
