"nami" means wave). Japan"s most powerful earthquake since records began has struck the north-east
coast, leading to a massive tsunami. Cars, ships and buildings were swept away by a wall of water after
the 8.9-magnitude earthquake, which struck about 400km (250 miles) north-east of Tokyo and caused
massive destruction, flattening whole cities, starting powerful fires, and killing hundreds.
In the wake of the Japanese tragedy, remember these tsunami survival tips:
1. A good warning sign of an approaching tsunami is "drawback," when the ocean recedes (减弱)
drastically or the water level falls unusually along the shoreline. During the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, a
10-year-old girl on vacation with her family in Thailand, Tilly Smith, saved the lives of dozens of tourists
when she recognized the receding water and frothing bubbles on the surface of the water as a sign that a
tsunami was on its way. Experts believe that a receding ocean may give people as much as five minutes"
warning to evacuate the area.
2. You"re not out of danger after the first wave of a tsunami. A tsunami occurs as a series of waves
known as a "wave train," and the series of surges (奔涌向前) can be five minutes or up to an hour apart.
The tsunami does not usually appear on the shoreline as a gigantic breaking wave, but rather as a rapid tide
or a wall of water. The worst mistake you can make is staying near the beach out of curiosity. Find higher
ground and go as far inland as you can. If you can see the waves, you"re still too close.
3. A tsunami surge may be small at one point of the shore and large at another point. Move to higher
ground as soon as you can and don"t assume that because there"s minimal activity in the coastal area where
you are, it will be like that everywhere else.
4. Keep your ears peeled. Many witnesses have said that a tsunami sounds thunderous, like a freight train.
B. introduced a new word into a language
C. explained a new word
D. gave a definition to a new word.
B. Tilly Smith must have a very good knowledge of science.
C. A lot of people must have been killed in the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami.
D. If a tsunami surge is small at one point of the shore and it should be small at another point.
B. The worst mistake you can make is staying near the beach out of curiosity after the first wave of a tsunami. C. Experts believe that a receding ocean may give people as much as five minutes" warning to escape from the
area.
D. A good warning sign of an approaching tsunami is "drawback," when the ocean recedes slightly or the water
level falls usually along the shoreline.
B. Signs of Tsunami identification
C. Methods of Avoiding Tsunami
D. Tips for Tsunami Survival

can"t remember it. You just waste your valuable time. 1 One dependable aid that does help you remember
what you study is to have a specific purpose or reason for reading.
Why does a clerk in a store go away when your reply to her offer to help is, "No, thank you. I"m just
looking."? Both you and she know that if you aren"t sure what you want, you are not likely to find it. But
suppose you say instead, "Yes, thank you.I want a pair of sun glasses." She says,"Right this way, please."
2 If you choose a book, "just looking" for nothing in particular, you are likely to get just that-nothing.
But if you do know what you want, you are almost sure to get it.Your reasons will vary; they will include
reading or studying"to find out more about", "to understand the reasons for" and"to find out how".
3 Before you start to study, you say to yourself something like this, "I want to know why Stephen
Vincent Benet happened to write about America". Because you know why you are reading or studying, you
relate the information to your purpose and remember it better.
4 At least two important processes go on at the same time. As you read, you take in ideas rapidly and
accurately. But at the same time you express your own ideas to yourself as you react to what you read. You
have a kind of mental conversation with the author.
This additional process of thinking about what you read includes evaluating it, relating it to what you
already know, and using it for your own purposes. 5 One part of critical reading, as you have discovered,
is distinguishing between facts and opinions. Facts can be checked by evidence, Opinions are one"s own
personal reactions.Another part of critical reading is judging sources.Still another part is drawing accurate
inferences.
B. It is important for students to have a positive attitude to their study.
C. You remember better when you know what you" re reading.
D. In other words, a good reader is a critical reader.
E. It"s quite the same with your studying.
F. Reading is not one single activity.
G.This is the way it works.
together. Just as you start to get ready, your dad reminds you it is your aunt"s birthday and the whole family
is going out to dinner to celebrate. How can this possibly end without a huge argument?
One of the greatest sources of tension (紧张情绪) between teenagers and their families is the struggle to
balance personal desires with family expectations. As you are getting older, you are becoming more
independent and more interested in being with your friends.
However, at the same time, your family is trying to figure out how to deal with these changes. While you
once spent most of your free time with your family, you are now often absent from home. Parents may get
their feelings hurt. Or they might feel that they are losing control of their family during this period. You might
feel angry that so many family demands are placed on you.
There are a few things you can try to make it a little easier to ease the tension.
* Make your plans in advance. Ask your parents if there is anything else planned at that time.
* When something with your friends interferes (干扰;冲突) with a family event, try to figure out if there
is any way you can do both.
* Suggest something you would really like to do with your family.Sometimes parents feel better just
knowing their teenager wants to spend time with them.
Some of the time you won"t be happy with the outcome. You might either have to disappoint your parents
or have to miss out being with your friends. However,if you show consideration for the feelings of both your
family and your friends, you can solve the problem in a tender way.

D. show the popularity of teenager problem
B. parents want to keep their family under control
C. parents feel unhappy that their children make so many friends
D. both parents and teenagers don"t pay attention to each other"s feeling much

C. Tell your parents before you decide to spend time with your friends.
D. Advise your parents to do something that you are interested in with you.
B. To tell us about a common teenager problem.
C. To persuade parents to show consideration for teenagers.
D. To advise teenagers how to deal with their tension with their family.
can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight.
Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. So animals and man need plants in order to live.
This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.
If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering
plants and non-flowering plants.
Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some
have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a
fruit without seeds is the banana fruit.
Most non-flowering plants don"t grow from seeds. They grow from spores. Spores are so small and light
that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as the seeds. When these spores fall
on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.
B. plants cannot grow without air
C. there are many plants around us
D. we cannot live without water
B. All fruits have seeds in them.
C. Seeds are protected by the fruits.
D. Some plants grow from spores.
B. 有花的
C. 多花的
D. 不开花的
B. a lot of water
C. no water

to friends who have travelled to the places. Or you can go and see a color film. Or you can read travel books.
It would seem that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal, subjective
(主观的) account of travels which the author has actually made himself. If they are informative and have a
good index (索引), then they can be useful to you when you are planning your travels. The second kind are
those books whose purpose is to give a purely objective (客观的) description of things to be done and seen.
If a well-read, cultured person has written such a book, then it is even more useful. It can be sorted as a
selected guide book. The third kind are those books which are called"a guide" to some place or other. If they
are good, they will, in addition to their factual information, give an analysis or an explanation. Like the first
kind they can be inspiring and interesting. But their basic purpose is to help the reader who wishes to plan in
the most practical way.
Whatever kind of travel book you choose you must make sure that it does not describe everything as
"wonderful", "excellent" or"magical". You must also note its date of publication because travel is a very
practical affair and many things change quickly in the twenty-first century. Finally, you should make sure
that the contents are well presented and easy to find.
B. how to buy travel books
C. how to read a travel book
D. travel books
B. the book which tells you what is worth doing and seeing based on the facts
C. the book in which a lot of big adjectives are used to draw your attention
D. the book which offers you a lot of useful information like a tour guide
B. the price of the book is always changing
C. the author of the book may be different
D. the contents of the book are always the same
