When I was looking for a Christmas present for my daughter in a store, a nicely dressed little girl, with some money in her little hand, looking at some beautiful dolls. When she saw a doll she liked, she ask her father if she had enough money. He usually said yes.
At the same time, a boy, with old and small clothes, was looking video games. He, too, had money in his hand, but it looked no more
five dollars. Each time he picked up one of the video games and looked at his father, he shook his head.
The little girl had chosen her doll, a very beautiful one. However, she noticed the boy and his father. She saw the boy give up a video game with disappointment(失望) and walk to another corner of the store.
The little girl put her doll back to the shelf and ran over to the video game. After she talked to her father, she paid for the video game and whispered(耳语) to the shop assistant.

Maybe you know floods, droughts, earthquakes, sandstorms and so on. But have ever heard of typhoons? Typhoons are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.
How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move
higher up into the sky. Then, cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles, and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 meters a second, a typhoon begins.
A typhoon has two parts, One is called the ―eye‖.In the eye, the wind does not move so fast.The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. This is where the strongest with and hardest rains are.
Typhoons are very dangerous. In 2004, Typhoon Yunna killed 164 people in Zhejiang, and 24 people were missing. In May 2006, Typhoon Pearl hir Guangdong and Fujian,and thousands of houses were damaged.
What to do when a typhoon hits
Stay inside, Close all the windows and stay away from them.
Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes! Listen to the radio or TV for important information. If you’re told to go to a safer place, do so right away. 66.Typhoons often happen . A.in the hot season
B.in the cold seasonC.only in China
D.under the sea
67.Which picture can tell meaning of the underlined sentences―…，it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then, cooler air around it rushes in.‖?
68.When a typhoon comes, we cannot . A.close all the windows
B.listen to typhoon news D.stay inside the strong house
C.stay outside with our bikes
69.This passage is mainly about .
A.the knowledge of typhoon
B.the eye of a typhoon
D.the names of typhoon
C.the most dangerous typhoon Yunna
70.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.The warmer the air gets, the slower the wind moves. B.This year Typhoon Peal killed 164 people in Zhejiang. C.The strongest winds and harder rains are in the eye of typhoon.
D.A typhoon will happen when the wind goes faster than 30 meters a second. D
Rivers are one of our most important natural resources (自然资源). Many of the world’s great cities are located on rivers, and almost every country has at least one fiver flowing through it that plays an important part in the lives of its people.
Since the beginning of history, people have used rivers for transportation. The longest one in the United States is the Mississipi. The lifeline of Egypt is Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation; ships can travel along it for a thousand miles. Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in Southeast Asia. The greatest of all for navigation(航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil(巴西). It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles upon it.
Besides transportation, rivers give food to eat, water to drink, water for crops, and chances for fun and recreation for the people who live along their banks. In order to increase the supply of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝) across a river and let a lake form behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate(灌溉) their fields but also to make electricity for their homes and industries. However, large cities and industries that are located upon rivers often make problems. As the cities grow in size and industries increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with chemicals and other materials. {people are learning the importance, however, of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits(利益) of this natural resource. 71. The greatest river for navigation is .
A. the Amazon B. the Nile C. the Mekong D. the Mississippi 72. Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?
A. The Mile is in India. B. Almost every country has at least one important river. C. Many cities are located on rivers.D. Rivers play an important part in the lives of people. 73. From a dam, people can use the water for . A. keeping the rivers clean B. only making electricity C. washing clothes D. irrigating and making electricity 74. The water in the river is polluted because of . A. people’s drinking water to much B. people’s swimming in the river too much C. chemicals and other materials D. people’s building a dam across a river 75. The best title of the passage is .
A. Rivers in Cities B. The Importance of Rivers C. Transportation D. Natural Resources
