Hurricanes
Hurricanes are gigantic tropical storms that can be hundreds of kilometers wide. They bring along very strong winds and a lot of rainfall. They often cause flooding near the coasts and sea levels rise.
1. __________________________
Hurricanes are born over tropical oceans, usually during late summer and early autumn. They need two things to get them started: heat and moist air. During the summer the ocean surface heats up and warm moist air starts to rise. Cool air sinks down to replace it. This creates an area of low pressure. The rotation of the earth creates winds around the center of such a low-pressure area. In the northern hemisphere the air moves counter clockwise, in the southern part clockwise. Such a system is called a cyclone. When warm air rises, it cools and creates clouds. Soon, thunderstorms form and it starts to rain.
All hurricanes begin as cyclones but not all cyclones become storms or hurricanes. Some die out a few days after they start. They don’t have enough energy to become a hurricane. When winds are stronger than 119 km an hour a storm officially becomes a hurricane.
2. __________________________
The center of a hurricane is called the eye, a calm area with little rainfall. It is about 30 to 50 km wide. Inside the eye the sea can rise up to one meter because the air moves up. The eye wall is around the eye. This is an area of thunderstorms, rain and the strongest winds—up to 300 km an hour. Then come long bands of rain clouds that are curved towards the center of the hurricane.
3. __________________________
In the northern hemisphere hurricanes normally move in a westward direction and then they turn north and northeast. Their path takes them away from the warm tropical water of the equator. When hurricanes move over colder water or over land they lose a lot of their energy. They slow down and as time goes on, they disappear. In the southern hemisphere their path leads them to the south and southeast.
4. __________________________
When a tropical storm forms over the Caribbean Sea it gets a name. Every year the first storm of the season is given a name that starts with the letter A, the second storm gets a name starting with B and so on. Years ago only women’ s names were used for tropical storms. Today male and female names alternate –for example, the first storm is named Alexandra, the second one Billy, then Catherine etc. Each year new names are used so that you can connect a storm to a certain year.
5. __________________________
Hurricanes are causing more and more damage throughout the Gulf Region, mainly because the population is constantly growing. Many things can be done to protect yourself and your property during a hurricane: Keep emergency supplies of food and water; keep a battery-powered radio ready in case the power goes out. Listen to the instructions you get; keep the gas tank of your car full, in case you have to leave quickly; protect your house by nailing plywood over the windows and doors. Tie down loose objects; find out which roads are best to take you away from the storm; leave your house as soon as you are ordered to evacuate, etc.

  We don't have beds in the space shuttle, but we do have sleeping bags.During the day, when we are working, we leave the bags tied to the wall, out of the way.At bedtime we untie them and take them wherever we've chosen to sleep.

  On most space shuttle flights everyone sleeps at the same time.No one has to stay awake to watch over the space plane:the shuttle's computers and the engineers at the Control Office do that.If anything goes wrong.The computers ring a warning bell and the engineers call us on the radio.

  On the space shuttle, sleep-time doesn't mean nighttime.During each ninety-minute flight around the earth, the sun "rises" and shines through our windows for about fifty minutes:then it "sets" as our flight takes us around the dark side of the Earth.To keep the sun out of our eyes, we wear black sleep masks.

  It is surprisingly easy to get comfortable and fall asleep in space, and we sleep differently.Some sleep upside down, some sideways, some right side up.When it's time to sleep, I take my bag, my sleep mask, and my tape player with earphones and float up to the flight platform.Then I get into the bag, and float into a sitting position just above a seat, right next to a window.Before I pull the mask down over my eyes, I relax for a while, listening to music and watching the Earth go by under me.

  When I'm in space I don't need as much sleep as I do on Earth Maybe that's because when I am weightless, I don't feel as tired.Or maybe it's because I'm excited to be in space and don't want to waste time sleeping.

(1)

What do the shuttle people do with their sleeping bags while working? ________

[  ]

A.

Keep them where they work.

B.

Leave them where they sleep.

C.

Place them on the beds.

D.

________

[  ]

A.

the shuttle's radio

B.

the shuttle's warning bell

C.

people working in the shuttle

D.

engineers at the Control Office

(3)

How often does the sun rise to people in the space shuttle? ________

[  ]

A.

Every 140 minutes.

B.

Every 90 minutes.

C.

Every 50 minutes.

D.

Every 40 minutes.

(4)

What does the passage mainly talk about? ________

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

  The sun can make the wind blow! The faraway sun can make air move across the earth in a wind.

  First, sunshine heats the earth. Then the earth heats the air that is close to it. As the air gets warmer, it also gets lighter. Up it goes, while cooler air moves in to take its place. This is the kind of motion (运动) you can see in a turning wheelas one part is going up, another part in moving along the ground.

  High above the earth, the warm air grows cool, and down it comes again. Once more the earth warms it. Again it rises, and the great wheel of air keeps turning.

  You can feel it turning in a hot day at the seashore of beside a lake. The earth soaks(吸收)up more heat from the sun than the water does. This means that the air above the earth grows warm and light, while the air above the water stays cool. The warm, light air rises. Offshore, the cooler air begins to move. It flows in over the land to take the warm air's place. That is why you are likely to have a cool breeze at the shore on a sunshiny day.

  Some winds are caused by the spinning (旋转) of the earth itself.

1.When the wind blows, it gets through the following steps except ________.

[  ]

A.the earth spins by itself

B.sunshine heats the earth

C.the earth heats the air that is close to it

D.warm air goes up and cool air moves in to take its place

2.Which of the following plays an important part in making the wind blow?

[  ]

A.The sun.
B.The earth.
C.The warm air.
D.The cool air.

3.Which of the following pictures can explain the form of the wind?

[  ]

A.
B.
C.
D.

The temperature of the sun is over 5000 degrees Fahrenheit at the surface, but it rises to perhaps more than 16 million degrees at the center.The sun is so much hotter than die earth that matter can exist only as a gas, except at the core.In the core of the sun, the pressures are so great against the gases that, despite the high temperature, there may be a small solid core.However, no one really knows, since the center of the sun can never be directly observed.
Solar astronomers do know that the sun is divided into five layers or zones.Starting at the outside and going down into the sun, the zones are the corona, chromosphere, photosphere, convection zone and finally the core.The first three zones are regarded as the sun's atmosphere.
But since the sun has no solid surface, it is hard to tell where the atmosphere ends and the main
body of the sun begins.
The sun's outermost layer begins about 10000 miles above the visible surface and goes outward for mllions of miles.This is the only part of the sun that can be seen during an eclipse(日食) such as the one in February 1979.At any other time, the corona can be seen only when special instruments are used on cameras and telescopes to shut out the glare of the sun's rays.
The corona is a brilliant, pearly white, filmy light, about as bright as the full moon.Its beautiful rays are a sensational sight during an eclipse.The corona's rays flash out in a brilliant fan that has wispy spikelike(一束束穗状) rays near the sun's north and south poles.The corona is thickest at the sun's equator.
The corona rays are made up of gases streaming outward at tremendous speeds sad reaching a temperature of more than 2 million degrees Fahrenheit.The rays of gas thin out as they reach the space around the planets.By the time the sun's corona rays reach the Earth, they are weak and invisible.
【小题1】Matter on the aim can exist only in fee form of gas because of the sun's ___.

A.sizeB.ageC.locationD.temperature
【小题2】All of the following are parts of the sun's atmosphere EXCEPT the ___.
A.coronaB.chromosphereC.photosphere D.core
【小题3】According to the passage, as the corona ra5,'s reach -die plaasts, they become ___.
A.hotterB.clearer C.thinnerD.stronger
【小题4】Which of 'die following do the paragraphs following the passage most likely discuss?
A.The remaining layers of the sun.
B.The evolution of the sun to its present form.
C.The eclipse of February 1979.
D.All the above.
