One girl came to visit me .Every time she came, she brought flowers.She was recovering from cancer and felt she should come back and the other patients.

She still had no hair, and she was swollen from medications she had been taking.I would not have given this girl a second before.I now loved every inch of her and looked forward to her .

Finally, I was improving and soon I went home.My leg was still swollen, I was walking, and I had my foot! When I would go back to the hospital, I often saw my friend. She was still visiting people and good cheer.I thought if even there was an angel on this earth, it had to be her.

Knowing I couldn’t get a flight in time, I asked the nurse to put the phone next to my mother’s ear so I could talk to her. “She’s conscious,” the nurse replied. “It’s unlikely she’ll hear you.” But I didn’t care. I wanted to do it .

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.

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 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”, 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.vAccording to the passage, hurricanes usually ___________.

A. form off the coast of Africa and America

C. hit parts of the world in summer and autumn

B. travel at 40 miles per hour and get its name

D. cause sea winds to rise and blow over the sea

2.The underlined word “evaporates” (in Paragraph 5) probably means “___________”.

A. begins to move B. changes into a gas

C. becomes hot D. gets lost

3.Which of the following about the information of a hurricane is in the correct order?

a. The ocean water evaporates and goes into the air.

b. Heat creates energy and causes winds to increase.

c. The vapor cools.

d. The ocean water is warm enough.

e. The vapor changes back into liquid.

f. This course gives out heat.

A. a, d, e, b, c, f B. a, b, c, f, d, e

C. d, a, b, c, e, f D. d, a, c, e, f, b

4.Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. One out of six or seven storms get names.

B. Every year at least 60 storms form off Africa.

C. The speed of the biggest two hurricanes reaches 115miles per hour.

D. About one third of the hurricanes tend to be very big.

You surely want to take a good school yearbook photo, for you only get to do it once, and it’s what people remember you by for the whole school year.Learn how to look good and look natural in your yearbook photo with these simple tips.

1.Practice smiling in a mirror.It sounds crazy, but figuring out how to make a natural looking smile for the camera does need a little preparation.Don’t be shy! Just imagine you are in front of a camera —hold your head high, look straight into the mirror and smile.Keep practicing until you find out your most attractive smiling face.

2.Choose your color wisely.In yearbook photos, lots of people look good in darker colors because they draw attention to the face.Generally, white often isn’t the best choice because it can make your skin look a bit gray, especially if you’re pale.Besides, stay away from super(超级的)-bright colors ( bright yellow, bright blue) unless you’re really sure they make you look perfect.

3.Avoid unnecessary details.Busy patterns draw attention to themselves in yearbook photos, not to your face and smile.Save them for your everyday fashion experiments.Besides, have your clothes prepared for the day when the yearbook photo is taken.The last thing you want to do is pick out the perfect thing to wear, only to find that it’s in the laundry.

4.Avoid big changes to your appearance.Big changes may not turn out the way you hope.Leave some time to do your hair, such as combing(梳头) it up right before the yearbook photo is taken.Don’t overdo it, since you want your hair to stay in one place and your face to draw all the attention, but go for the "less is more" approach.

1.The best title of this passage is ______.

A. How to Make Yourself Look Good

B. How to Do When Taking a School Photo

C. How to Get Ready for Your School Photo-taking

D. How to Make a Good School Photo Book
