The retired teacher's plants were small, but still looked okay, while the businessman's plants were much bigger and greener. One night, there came a storm with a heavy rain and strong wind. The next morning, both of the neighbors came out to check in their gardens. The businessman saw that his plants had come out from the earth and were totally out of life.

The businessman was surprised. He went to consult（咨询）the retired teacher. "We both grew the same plants and I cared for my plants better than you did. How could your plants still be okay?"

There are many kinds of wind in the natural world, such as the strong wind and the gentle （柔和的）wind. Different windy weather makes us enjoy a different life. You can feel the wind because the air is moving. The faster the air moves, the stronger the wind becomes. When the wind is very strong, it causes a typhoon.
In China, the name typhoon has the same pronunciation（发音）as taifeng in Putonghua, while in the east of Northern Pacific Ocean, people call it hurricane（飓风）. Usually people decide the name of a typhoon by its landing（登陆） place.
Last year, the 22nd typhoon called Mangkhut first came to Philippine and attacked southern China. Very heavy rain came through Guangdong Province, and trees and even buildings fell down in the strong wind. People could hardly go outside, and of course schools were closed for safety reasons. So what can we do if a typhoon comes?
First, we must know the latest information about a typhoon. Then, we must close the doors and windows closely and remember not to go outside or too far from home. Third, when staying outdoors, always stay far away from the trees. While staying indoors, stick tapes（贴加固胶带）to the windows sothat the strong wind will not break the house. Finally, call 110 for help when you are in danger. In fact, people are friendly to nature. For example, they grow trees everywhere and make the land green and so on. So, if we learn more about different disasters（灾难）and remember the skills of keeping ourselves safe, we can live happily with the nature!
（1）The first paragraph tells us that a typhoon ______.
A moves the air fast in different windy weather
B is a kind of gentle wind in the natural world
C is stronger than the wind we feel every day
（2）How many tips did the writer give us about what to do when a typhoon comes?
A 3
B 4
C 5
（3）The underlined word "attacked" in paragraph 3 means ______ in Chinese.
A 抨击
B 离开
C 袭击
（4）Why do people call the typgoon Manghut?
A Because people in Guangdong named it first.
B Because people in Philippine like Mangkhut.
C Because the typhoon first arrived in Philippine.
（5）What may be the best title of this passage?
A What We Know About a Typhoon
B What We Know About a Typhoon
C Different Kinds of Wind

阅读下面的材料，然后根据材料内容回答问题。

The People's Republic of China（PRC）has celebrated its 70th birthday on October 1st this year. Before the National Day, we asked students to share their feelings about China. Here are some of their answers.
"A few months ago, our school visited the Beijing International Horticultural Exhibition（世博园）. In the 5G exhibition hall, I was impressed by how quickly people could download （下载）videos. It took just seconds. 5G will make the Internet of Things possible one day." Yu Mingke, a student in Beijing, said.
"My hometown is in Baoding, a city in Hebei province. On July 30 this year, a cable-stayed bridge（斜拉桥）was noticed by everyone in the city. Its main body is 495 meters long and 39.7 meters wide. I was inspired（受鼓舞的）by the bridge to study harder and do something creative in the future." Du Yiran said.
People love to travel. In the 1970s, anyone who was lucky enough to have a bicycle would be the envy（羡慕的对象）of others. Then, green trains came out, but they ran at a speed of 30 km per hour. In the 2010s, the speed of China's fastest trains rose to 350 km per hour. But now we can visit many places thanks to the highly developed transportation network. I have visited Beijing, Tibet and Xiamen. Zhuang Yizhou said.
（1）How old is China? ______
（2）When was the cable-stayed bridge noticed by everyone in Baoding? ______
（3）How long did it take to download videos? ______
（4）Where did Zhuang Yizhou visit? ______

根据上下文内容，将文中画线部分译成汉语或者英语。

How do you feel when you have to make a speech in front of class? Do you get really shy? Shyness means feeling nervous or afraid when you're around other people.（1） More than 80 percent of middle school students feel shy in front of new people. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy because of their life experiences（经历）.
（2）Most people have red faces as they get shy. But some become so shy that they won't go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food.（3）一些人害怕交朋友，所以他们几乎不交谈。

So they seldom gooutside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.
If shyness doesn't stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn't a very big problem.（4） Shy people seem to be smarter because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Some great people in history were shy, too.
You see, being shy isn't all bad. But remember not to miss good chances just because of it! If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practice your spoken English in front of others, just do it!（5）你可以尝试通过练习使自己放松。

There's nothing to be afraid of.
