    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    The unwanted disturbing of a mobile phone ringing at a critical moment has led to some famously strong reactions

        British actor Richard Grif-fiths，stopped a performance at the National Theatre and ordered The offending party to leave

        Judge Robert Restaino went considerably further．He was hearing a session of domestic violence offenders in a court when proceedings were interrupted by rings of a phone．

       “Everyone is going to jail unless I get that instrument now,” he shouted．

        Over the next two hours，the judge entered a period of “incredible madness”．He began by ordering the doors of the court locked，and set the officers to searching for the phone．

        When that failed to find the offending item he ordered each of the defendants(被告) present in the room up to his bench and in turn asked them if they  had no idea, he sent each in turn to jail(监狱).   

    All 46 of them．

        When a defendant protested the judge’s actions were not fair to those who didn’t possess the phone，Restaino replied：“I know it isn’t．

        Judge’s actions caused chaos．Extra officers had to be drafted into the court to control the crowd．and booking officers at the city jail were at full stretch．“We were playing Twister in here”, one said at the time．

    Fourteen of the defendants were shackled(束缚 )in irons and sent to the county jail．

        The judge cooled off and later that afternoon released all 46．

        The “two hours of viral lunacy（疯狂）”, has probably cost Restaino his job．The commission ruled that he should be removed from his $14,000 job．Restaino now has 30 days to appeal(上诉)．

        His lawyer pointed out that until that moment he had served 11 years as a judge without any disciplinary issues．“With the exception of two hours．his record is spotless．”

    A．we are just playing games

    C．we can hardly survive the crisis

    D．we’re searching casually

    A．To indicate the disadvantage of mobile phone．

    Read and answer the following questions.
          The United States is one of the biggest countries in the world. It has all sorts of geography, from deserts
    to beaches, mountains to flatlands. These conditions help create all sorts of weather: mild, moderate and
    extreme. Sometimes all in one day! In the summer, some areas get very hot and the air is very wet. But others
    have dry air, so the heat does not feel so bad.
         In the winter, parts of the country get cold and snowy while others stay warm and sunny. This is the
    difference between, for example, New York City on the East Coast and Los Angeles on the West Coast. Yet
    even the East Coast has its warm places in winter, like Florida.
         The oceans affect weather along the coasts. The Pacific coast has smaller temperature changes and calmer
    conditions than along the Atlantic.
         Alaska and Hawaii are the only states not connected to the forty-eight mainland states. Alaska is in the
    Arctic area, so it gets very cold. Hawaii, out in the Pacific, is warm all year long.
         Weather in the central and northeastern parts of the country is affected by cold air from Canada and warm
    air from the Caribbean. Conditions can change quickly.
         Hurricanes are ocean storms that strike mainly in the Southeast. The hurricane season is, officially, June
    through November. Tornadoes are a risk across the country. These are locally severe windstorms. They
    generally happen in spring and summer.
          In fact, March eighteenth happens to be the eightieth anniversary of the most deadly tornado in United
    States history. The nineteen twenty-five"Tri-State Tornado" hit parts of Missouri, Illinois and Indiana. The
    National Weather Service says the horrible twister killed nearly seven hundred people.

    1. Why does America have all sorts of weather? (回答词数不超过8个)
    ____________________________________________________________________________
    2. What is the difference in weather between Alaska and Hawaii?(回答词数不超过7个)
    _____________________________________________________________________________
    3. What makes the weather conditions change quickly in the central and northeastern parts of the US?
    (回答词数不超过10个)

    Board, But Not Boring

    Roll the Dice and Take a Chance on Something New…

    Are you vacationed-out, tired of video-gaming, waterlogged by too many trips to the pool and ready to scream if you see one more “SpongeBob” rerun?

    In other words, are you bored with summer?

    We’ve got a suggestion: Kill that boredom with some great board boredom games. We went to game expert Lizzy Palmer of Barston’s Child’s Play in the District and ask for suggestions. All the games you see on this page are a ton of fun, she said, and there are sure to be at least one or two that you don’t already have.

    Maptangle

    Borderline Games

    Ages 7 and older, 4 to 6 players, $24.95

    This clever take on the classic game of Twister

    challenges your gymnastic and geographic

    skills at the same time. A huge floor map of

    the world serves as the game board. There are

    lots of geographic elements: countries, oceans,

    rivers, deserts, even man-made landmarks. A

    deck of cards tells you where to put one foot,

    then the other. The round is over when someone falls.

    Jungle Speed

    Ages 7 and older, 2 to 8

    players, $25.99

    This is a fast-paced shape-

    recognition game. A wooden totem

    (图腾柱) sits in the middle. Players flip

    (翻) over cards one at a time. When your

    card matches another, be the first to grab

    the totem so that you can give your card to the loser. But be careful: Some cards look the same but aren’t!

    Enchanted Forest

    Ravensburger Ages 6 and older, 2 to 6 players,

    $24.99

    A classic memory game. Take a winding path

    through the forest and check under the trees for

    fairy-tale treasure. Remember what you saw so

    that when you need a particular treasure you can

    go back to that tree to get it. Cool rule: You can split your dice (骰子) roll—for example, move five spaces in one direction and two in the other to land at the right tree.

    Go fish for Wildlife Birdcage Press All ages, $9.95

    Birdcage has several decks (副) of cards that are

    more like trading cards. You fish for sea creatures,

    reptiles, wild animals. Each deck has instructions

    for several card games, and each card has great

    photos and fun facts. Great for a trip.

    HedBanz Funrise Ages 6 and older, 2 to 6

    players, $13.99

    Put on a headband and slip in a card that shows an

    animal or thing. Everyone else can see it but you.

    Ask questions until you guess what it is—but do it

    before time runs out!
