三、阅读理解（本题共20分，每小题1分）
（A）
A bit of rain and wind in summer can be nice. But bad storms are a bit different. Some of the worst storms are typhoons. Every year, about 80 typhoons hit different places around the world. The strongest ones are usually the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.
Why? When lots of seawater gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates into the air. This makes the air hotter, too. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then, cooler air around it rushes in till the space that is left. Once the air gets warmer, it starts to move more quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles, and it keeps moving faster than 30 meters a second, a typhoon begins.
A typhoon has two parts. One is called the “eye”. This is right in the middle of a typhoon and is calm. The eye of a typhoon can be about 40
kilometers wide. In the eye, the wind does not move so fast, and there are not many clouds in the eye. The other part of a typhoon is the wall of clouds around the eye. This is where the strongest winds and hardest rains are.
Typhoons are very dangerous. They blow away houses and cars. And they can also kill people! Typhoons’ hard rains are bad for farmers’ fields.
What to do when a typhoon hits?
Cover all windows and stay away from them. If you’re told to go to a safer place, do so right away.
Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bike.
Listen to the radio or watch TV for important information.
Cut away parts of trees that can be broken off by wind to stop them from doing more damage.

A. America
B. England
C. China

A. 消失
B. 飘荡
C. 蒸发
（）28. The speed of the wind depends on（取决于）_________.
A. how cold the air is
B. how warm the air gets
C. how many mountains there are
（）29. ________ the eye of the typhoon, _________ it moves.
A. The stronger the air is from, the faster
B. The nearer the air is to, the slower
C. The nearer the air is to be, the faster
（）30. Which is the safer place when typhoon comes?
A. In the eye of the typhoon.

One American community（社区）decided that it was time to take a break.
After seven months of planning, the community of Ridgewood, New Jersey, took one night off. They called it “Family Night”, a night for families to spend time together. Sports teams stopped their practices, and teachers did not give homework.
On Family Night, families agreed to turn off their televisions. They also decided not to answer the telephone. Answering machines said, “Please call back tomorrow.” Many families ordered take-out pizza and other take-out food so that they wouldn’t spend time cooking.
Popular activities included board games and card games. These games gave families a chance to spend time together. Children and parents weren’t so busy, and children didn’t spend so much time playing video games and watching television. On Family Night, families relaxed and spent the evening together.

After supper I went to school in a hurry. When I opened the door of the classroom, I was surprised to see all the desks were put together, on which were cakes, candles and beautiful gifts. When I came in, my
classmates said “Happy Birthday” to me. The light of the candles made the classroom bright. One of them said, “Don’t be discouraged! Try again. We are all your friends and we will help you.” What warm -hearted words! Hearing that, I was deeply moved by their kindness. Tears come to my eyes. I thought they had given me the best present.

【励志故事】
该低头时就低头
被称为美国人之父的富兰克林，年轻时曾去拜访一位德高望重的老前辈。

那时他年轻气盛，挺胸抬头迈着大步，一进门，他的头就狠狠地撞在门框上，疼得他一边不住地用手揉搓，一边看着比他的身子矮去一大截的门。

出来迎接他的前辈看到他这副样子，笑笑说：“很痛吧！可是，这将是你今天访问我的最大收获。

一个人要想平安无事
地活在世上，就必须时刻记住：该低头时就低头。

这也是我要教你的事情。

”
富兰克林把这次拜访得到的教导看成是一生最大的收获，并把它列为一生的生活准则之一。

富兰克林从这一准则中受益终生，后来，他功勋卓越，成为一代伟人，他在他的一次谈话中说：“这一启发帮了我的大忙。

”
话外语：做人不可无骨气，但做事不可能总是仰着高贵的头。
