A Solemn Moment (庄严时刻)

　　

　　It is usual at international soccer matches to play the national anthems of the competing teams.

　　The players line up (列队) in the center of the field and the anthems of their countries are played through loudspeakers.

　　It is a kind of good manners given to visitors from other countries.

　　A few years ago, Greece was playing R. O. Korea in an important international soccer game.

　　As is often the case with international sports events, the game was not played in either team's home country.

　　It was played in a third, “neutral (中立的)” country.

　　As the two teams walked onto the pitch, music was played to the crowd over the loudspeakers.

　　The R. O. Korean players immediately stood to attention (立正).

　　They all thought it was the Greek national anthem.

　　The Greek players knew it was not their national anthem, but they stood to attention too.

　　They thought it was the Korean national anthem.

　　The spectators (观众) were surprised by the behavior of the teams and wondered what was happening.

　　Then, as all the players stood to attention, a voice came over the loudspeakers.

　　Only then did the spectators and the players know that the music was an advertisement for a new brand toothpaste (牙膏牌子).

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 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，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 l,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．”
