But Long Chuan has come to hate it.This year his hometown suffered from snowstorms (遭受暴风雪) for nearly a month. The heavy snow stopped cars and trains, broke the electricity (电) tower and turned tap water to ice.Every day Long Chuan had to walk several kilometers to carry drinking water. “I couldnt ride a bike and it took me 3 hours to walk to school. I cant remember how many times I slipped (滑倒) on the hard ice, ” said Long Chuan.Long is not alone. This year millions of people in central and southern China had a freezing winter without enough water and electricity. The biggest snowstorms in 50 years killed more than 100 people. They also cost the country 111.1 billion yuan.Experts (专家) say a special type of climate condition (气候条件), La Nina, caused the storms. During a La Nina, the water in the Pacific Ocean (太平洋) near the equator (赤道) becomes colder than usual. It changes the weather around the world.Besides China, Canada, the US and Middle Eastern countries also met with heavy snowstorms this winter. The special climate caused the recent flooding (洪水) in Australia, too.However, experts say that people have destroyed the environment (环境). Global warming (全球变暖) may be causing these terrible weather events to happen more and more often.31. What took place in Long Chuans hometown last winter? A. Earthquake. B. Flooding. C.

But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map while others can lose themselves in the next street?Scientists say were all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory（理论） is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we dont use it, we lose it.“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, research director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:l If you are using a map, turn it so that it relates to(与有联系) the way you are facing.l If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a treesomething easy to recognize. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route. l Simplify(简化) the way for finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or wells in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as towerblocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.Now you will never get lost again!36. Children have the ability to find the way around when they are _ years old.A. 5 B. 6 C. 7 D. 837. Which of the following things cannot be used as landmarks?A. Tower blocks. B. Hills. C. Wells. D. Bikes. 38. What does the underlined word “emphasize” mean in the passage?A. To give special importance to something. B. To express thanks for somebody. C. To understand or become aware of a fact. D. To admire somebody.39. Scientists believe that _.A. some babies are born with a sense of directionB. people learn a sense of direction as they grow olderC. people never lose their sense of directionD. everybody has a sense of direction from birth40. What may be the best title of the passage?A. A research on direction.B. A sense of direction. C. Peoples ability of finding the way.D. Scientists research on skills.
