But there are a few people who will get into their cars and go straight for the center of the storm. These people are willin

28、g to risk being killed by floods or 100-kilometer-an-hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up. “Storm chasing” 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

29、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 extremely dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole h

30、ouse 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

31、,” 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 si

32、ght 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.” 【小题 1】 For storm chasing, the first thing storm chasers do is to .

35、any 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. 答案： 【小题 1】 D 【小题 2】 B 【小题 3】 C 【小题 4】 A While income worry is a rather common problem of the aged, loneliness is another problem that aged parents may face.

36、 Of all the reasons that explain their loneliness, a large geographical distance between parents and their children is the major one. This phenomenon(现象 )is commonly known as “Empty Nest Syndrome”(空巢综合症 ). In order to seek(寻找 ) better chances outside their countries, many young people have gone abro

37、ad, leaving their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will return home. Their parents spend countless lonely days and nights, taking care of themselves, in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them. The fact that most of these young people have gone to European

38、ized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they had not left their countries. Whatever the case, it has been noted that the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually do. This geographical and cultural

39、distance also prevents the grown-up children from providing response in time for their aged parents living by themselves. The situation in which grown-up children live far away from their aged parents has been described as “distant parent phenomenon”, which is common both in developed countries and

40、in developing countries. Our society has not yet been well prepared for “Empty Nest Syndrome”. 【小题 1】 According to the passage, the loneliness of aged parents is mainly caused by _.

44、2】 D 【小题 3】 C 【小题 4】 B When we were very small, we realized that having friends was important. The need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. Friends played a big part in the development of our personalities. As adults, it is still important for us to have friends. True friends are people

45、 who like us though we make mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when were wrong. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are feeling down. They are people with wh

46、om we arent afraid of sharing our secret wishes or what is really on our minds. Friends, you fell safe and warm.
