阅读理解。      When a storm is coming, most people leave the area as quickly as possible and head for safety. But
there are a few people who will get into their cars and go straight for the center of the storm. These people
are willing to risk (冒…危险) being killed by floods or 100-kilometer-an-hour winds for the excitement of
watching the storm close up.
      "Storm chasing (追逐)" is becoming an increasingly popular hobby, especially in the Midwest of the
United States, where there are frequent storms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by
checking the Internet for the latest weather reports, and then drives up to 1,000 kilometers to where the
storm will be and waits for it to develop.
      Although anyone can do it, storm chasing is very dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow
into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by
driving in a heavy rain. If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations
during the storm season. Even then, storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement. "Storm chasing is 95%
driving," says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing."Sometimes you can sit around
for hours waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few light showers."
      However, for storm chasers, it is all worth it. "When you get close to a storm, it is the most exciting
sight you will ever see in your life," says Jasper Morley. "Every storm is an example of the power of nature.
It is the greatest show on Earth". 1. For storm chasing, the first thing storm chasers do is to _____. [     ]
A. head straight for the center of the storm
B. get into the car for safety
C. wait patiently for the storm to develop
D. collect information about a coming storm 2. Beginners of storm chasing are advised _____. [     ]
A. not to drive in a heavy rain
B. to do it in an organized way
C. not to get too close to a storm
D. to spend more time on it in summer 3. By saying "it is all worth it" in the last paragraph, the author means that _____.[     ]
A. storm chasing costs a lot of money
B. storm chasing is worth hours of waiting
C. efforts in storm chasing are well paid
D. a storm present is the greatest show on Earth 4. What can we learn from the text? [     ]
A. Sometimes storm chasers get nothing but disappointment.
B. Many storm chasers get killed in the storms.
C. Storm chasing is becoming popular around the world.
D. Storm chasing is only fit for young people.

阅读理解。                                              Teenagers Talking About "Being a Teenager"
      Being a teenager is a strange and yet exciting part of life. We are faced with tough and important decisions
each and every day-decisions that will affect our lives. 
                                                                                                                                                 -Katie
      Being a teenager is hard. I was such a cheerful kid with a best friend and lots of good friends. I got good
marks and I was happy with my family. But since I became a teenager, things changed. Everything changed-
my family, my friends, and my grades. In fact, my whole life changed. I started worrying about my figure and
the way I looked. I started getting pimples (粉刺) all over my face. I think teenage life is harder for girls than
for boys. 
                                                                                                                                                 -Julia
      Teenage years are a time when the single decision of right and wrong is based on what we see and hear.
Peer (同伴) pressure is more and more serious, and the need to "fit in" ( 顺应,适合) sometimes is more
important than"right" decisions. 
                                                                                                                                                 -Ashley
      Me? I have so much pressure (压力)! Being the only child in the family, my parents say that my future is
the future of the family! My parents, who both have not gone to university, put all their efforts into me, hoping
I can bring honor to the family. I really don"t want to let my parents down, and I"ll study harder and try my
best to get into university. 
                                                                                                                                              -Chen Mei 
     Though teenagers face many difficulties, I believe that we can all enjoy our time as "young adults"
somewhere in between the tears and the anger. Just think… ten years from now when you throw your back
out and start balding (秃顶), all you"ll be saying to yourself is "What I wouldn"t give to be seventeen again!" 
                                                                                                                                                -Kathy 1. _____ thinks that teenage life is harder for girls than for boys. [     ]
A. Katie
B. Kathy
C. Ashley
D. Julia 2. Ashley thinks that _____. [     ]
A. to fit in is more important than right decisions
B. decisions are not so important for teenagers
C. being a teenager is strange and yet exciting
D. teenagers should always make right decisions 3. Chen Mei felt great pressure from _____. [     ]
A. her neighbors
B. her teachers
C. her parents
D. her classmates 4. According to Kathy, teenagers _____. [     ]
A. should do just like adults
B. should enjoy their teenage time
C. should get through all difficulties
D. should find a place to enjoy themselves

阅读理解。     Like many people you may be dreaming of a career as a rock and roll star. There are two ways to go about
getting one. First there is the traditional (传统的) way. Find some friends and form a group. Learn to play the
guitar or the drums. Write your own songs. Spend hours arguing about the band name. then go out on the road.
     The next step is to spend a year or two touring. If you are any good, the crowds will get bigger. In the end
an artist from a record (唱片) company may come to a show. If he or she likes you, there may be a deal (交易). This is the path traditionally followed by bands in the music industry. Success means fame and wealth. And
failure gives you some interesting stories to tell your children.
     Over the last few years a different path to success has become known. Boy bands like Boyzone and girl
bands like Spice Girls don"t come together on their own. They are created by managers and record companies.
Their image (形象) is strictly controlled. Professional (专业) song writers usually write their music. This is a
convenient arrangement (安排) and the public seems to love the result.
     Though boy and girl bands have become very popular recently, there is a long tradition of making music in
this way. In the early 1960"s an American businessman called Berry Gordy founded Motown Records. Motown
is short for "motor town". The record company was based in the city of Detroit, where thousands of African-
Americans had moved to work in the car industry. They brought with them a cultural tradition of writing and
performing music. This style later became known as "soul music". Berry Gordy was a diamond miner.
Motown stars were not just given songs to sing. They were also taught how to dress well and speak properly. 1. The passage is mainly about _____.[     ]
A. why the record company is forming more bands
B. how the band has developed and become popular
C. what is the traditional way of forming a band
D. when the band became popular 2. If a newborn band wants to succeed, as the writer tells, it must have the chance _____. [     ]
A. to travel in big cities
B. to meet an businessman
C. to perform before an artist
D. to experience failure again and again 3. From the fourth paragraph, we can draw a decision (推论) that _____. [     ]
A. Motown was only enjoyed by the workers in Detroit
B. Motown showed the style of the black Americans
C. Detroit used to be famous for its music industry
D. Detroit was founded by African-Americans 4. The underlined word "where" in paragraph 4 refers to _____. [     ]
A. the city of Detroit
B. The record company
C. Motown

B. Boyzone is a band which was formed on its own.
