        No one can change the weather. Nobody can control the weather. But if we read correctly the signs around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting.

        For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. Many people feel their joints(关节) hurt in their bones if wet weather is coming. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. It is probably because of the insects (昆虫) which they are hunting that they fly low. If you see a rainbow (彩虹) during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in color, then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come. Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.

    1. (1) Which is true about weather forecasting?
      A . Weather forecasting is a recorder about the weather on the following day or two. B . Weather forecasting is a way of telling what the weather will be like. C . Weather forecasting is a sign of coming rain. D . People can change the weather.
    2. (2) According to the passage, people's joints ache ________.
      A . is a sign of coming rain B . without any reason C . because they are ill D . because of the insects
    3. (3) The birds fly high and the stars twinkle clearly is a sign that the weather will________.
      A . be warm B . be rainy C . become clear and fine D . be cold
    4. (4) A rainbow is a ________ of the weather.
      A . method B . way C . sign D . road
    5. (5) We must ________ to make weather forecasting.
      A . use our eyes and brains B . study the weather hard C . read correctly the signs D . All of the above

        Everyone has got two personalities (性格)—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep.

        If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas. You don't like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings. You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.

        If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and you're always easily becoming sad. You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life the way it is. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.

        If you sleep on curled up (蜷缩) , you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You're shy and you don't usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.

        If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced (平衡的) personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel worried, but you don't often get unhappy. You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry.

    1. (1) You may find the passage in __________.
      A . a science magazine B . a guide book C . a sports newspaper D . a story book
    2. (2) When does the sleeping position best show your secret personality?
      A . In the daytime. B . At the beginning of sleep. C . At night. D . During the deep sleep.

      A . on curled up B . on her stomach C . on her back D . on her side
    4. (4) What does the word “defensive" mean in the passage?
      A . 易怒的 B . 攻击性的 C . 外向的 D . 有戒心的

        In 1901, H. G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers (探险者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the "moon people" they met. In mm, the "moon people" expressed their surprise. "Why are you travelling to outer space when you don't even use your inner space?" they asked.

        H. G. Wells could only imagine the travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the "moon people" asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.

        Underground systems (体系) are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The "Chunnel", a tunnel connecting England and France, is now completed.

        But what about underground cities? Japan's Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called "Alice Cities". The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping and so on. A solar dome (太阳能穹顶) would cover the whole city.Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth's space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H. G. Wells's "moon people" would agree. Would you?

    1. (1) The explorers in H. G. Wells's story were surprised to find that the "moon people"______.
      A . knew so much about the Earth B . understood their language C . lived in so many underground cities D . were ahead of them in space technology

      A . Discovering the moon's inner space. B . Using the Earth's inner space. C . Meeting the "moon people" again. D . Travelling to outer space.
    3. (3) What kind of underground systems are already here with us?
      A . Offices, shopping areas, power stations. B . Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas. C . Gardens, car parks, power stations. D . Tunnels, gardens, offices.
    4. (4) Which of the following is true?
      A . H. G. Wells travelled to the moon in 1901. B . People today know there are a lot of "moon people" and underground cities. C . In 1969, human beings landed on the moon. D . Scientists are seriously thinking about how to use the moon.
