It was moving toward Bradley Road and then suddenly it disappeared,“ Snyder said.Snyder only saw one of the funnel clouds that passed through northeastern Ohio on Saturday.

12、 wind caused the power to go out in many homes.The storms caused serious flooding in areas near the river. More than four inches of rain fell in parts of Trumbull County. The river was so high that the water ran into streets and houses. Many streets had to be closed to cars and trucks because of the
13、 high water.

Some people reported five feet of water in their homes. Local and state officials opened e

18、er diminishes in coming decadeswe are facing a dramatic increase of warming that could be two or even three times as great as official best guesses. 2 This was the dramatic conclusion reached last week at a workshop in Dahlem, Berlin, where top atmospheric scientists got together, including Nobel pr
19、ize winner Paul Crutzen and Swedish scientist Bert Bolin, former chairman of the UNS Intergovemmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). 3 IPCC scientists have suspected for a decade that aerosols(浮质)of smoke and other particles from burning rainforest, crop waste and fossil fuels are blocking sunlight
20、 and counteracting the warming effect of carbon dioxide(二氧化物)emissionsUntil now, they reckoned that aerosols reduced greenhouse warming by perhaps a quarter, cutting increases by 0.2.CSo the 0.6.C of warming over the past century would have been 0.8.C. without aerosols. 4 But the Berlin workshop con
21、cluded that the real figure is even higher-aerosols may have reduced global warming by as much as threequarters, cutting increases by 1.8.C. If so, the good news is that aerosols have prevented the world getting almost two degrees warmer than it is nowBut the bad news is that the climate system is m
22、uch more sensitive to greenhouse gases than previously guessed. 5 those gases are expected to continue accumulating in the atmosphere while aerosols stabilize or fall, that means“dramatic consequences for estimates of future climate change“, the scientists agreed in a draft report from the workshop.

26、, my students had a chance to turn to tables on their teacher. They got to grade me anonymously, assessing the clarity of my thinking, my organizational skills and the depth of my knowledge. At their best, such evaluations keep me alert to what works and what does not. Students reflect my performanc
27、e back to me, and I am glad to learn what they think of my teaching, so that I might try to improve.I am also aware that the students comments become the primary evidence of my abilities, a paper trail following me throughout my career. When I come up for review, the promotion committee will examine
28、 my evaluations to determine just what kind of teacher I am.There is, of course, nothing wrong with accountability. But this system assumes that what students need is the same as what they want. Reading my evaluations every semester has taught me otherwise. Many students expectations for their cours
29、es have changed, reflecting, in part, the business model more universities are following. Classes are considered services, and parents are eager to get their moneys worth from their childrens education. Students feel pressure from their parents to derive practical use from their courses.This could m
30、ake sense for an engineering course, but in my field, creative writing, which rarely churns out polished 21-year-old writers, it is trickier to provide the results that the career-minded student craves. Then I stumbled upon some dubious teaching techniques, reversed the criticisms of these chronical
31、ly unhappy students and improved my student evaluations for the semester. My record would reflect a smart, attentive, encouraging teacher. But I would argue that I taught these students little. They loved me because I agreed that writing should be easy.I know other teachers who have done the same th
32、ing: teach your heart out to the teachable but be sure to please the unteachable, to keep your ratings high like a politician trying to improve his poll results.I believe in the struggle, and most students I have met do too. But I still cant help wincing when I read, “The instructor is mean.“ “Marcu
33、s is not committed to my work.“ “This class sucks.“ The business model has taught me that the customer is always right. But maybe a few more dissatisfied customer would mean a better learning experience.（分数：7.00）(1).What does the phrase “turn the tables on their teachers“ in Para. 1 mean?A. Students
34、 turn the tables to their teachers.B. Students praise their teachers.C. Students evaluate their teachers.D. Students criticize their teachers.（分数：1.40）A.B.C.D.(2).Why has the students expectation of their courses changed?A. Because the business model has changed.B. Because they want to improve their
35、 other abilities.C. Because they feel great pressure from the society.D. Because they have to satisfy their parents,（分数：1.40）A.B.C.D.(3).Why does the author say “classes are considered service“?A. Because education is commercial activity.B. Because the parents are anxious to see their feedback of in
36、vestment on their children.C. Because the students are the schools God and the teachers must serve the students.D. Because the relationship between the teacher and the students is the businessman and the customer.（分数：1.40）A.B.C.D.(4).What kind of teaching method does the author use in his writing cl
37、ass?A. Dubious teaching method.B. Encouraging the poor students.C. Praising the excellent students.D. Improving the evaluation for the students.（分数：1.40）A.B.C.D.(5).What was achieved at the end of the writing class?A. The students all learned a lot.B. The students liked his class very much.C. The wr

Wh
39、en you consider the fact that the money is supposed to be given to children in need of medical care, you might call the idea crazy.Most student leaders dont want to spend a large amount of time on something they care little about, said 22-year-old University of Florida student Darren Heitner. He was
40、 the Dance Marathons operations officer for two years.Yvonne Fangmeyer, director of the student organization office at the University of Wisconsin, conducted a survey in February of students involved in campus organizations. She said the desire for friendship was the most frequently cited reason for
41、 joining.At large universities like Fangmeyers, which has more than 40,000 students, the students first of all want to find a way to “belong in their own comer of campus“.Katie Rowley, a Wisconsin senior, confirms the surveys findings. “I wanted to make the campus feel smaller by joining an organiza
42、tion where I could not only get involved on campus but also find a group of friends.“All of this talk of friendship, however, does not mean that students arent thinking about their resumes. “I think that a lot of people do join to fatten up their resume,“ said Heitner. “At the beginning of my colleg
43、e career, I joined a few of these organizations, hoping to get a start in my leadership roles.“But without passion student leaders can have a difficult time trying to weather the storms that come. For example, in April, several student organizations at Wisconsin teamed up for an event designed to ed
44、ucate students about homelessness and poverty. Student leaders had to face the problem of solving disagreements, moving the event because of rainy weather, and dealing with the universitys complicated bureaucracy.“Outside-of the classroom learning really makes a big difference,“ Fangmeyer said.（分数：1

48、and what they see on TV. The first difference is that a policemans real life revolves round criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply
49、 it on his feet, in the dark and rain, running down a street after someone he wants to talk to. Little of his time is spent in chatting, he will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty of stupid, petty crimes. Most television crime drama is about finding the crimi
