Teens GardenBLast year, three experienced storm chasers were killed in a tornado in the US, but despite this the number of people going in search of tornadoes is growing. What drives them to take risks and look for danger? The man at the wheel glanced in the back view mirror and then slowly turned around. “Dont put this in your program,” he said. His wife in the passenger seat laughed. He lowered the window and killed the engine. The wind rushed in from surrounding wheat field.Then, from behind, the crunch (碎裂声) of footsteps approached on the dirt road. It was a moment peace after hours of speedy racing through the American grassland. There had been excited shouts about where a tornado might form and how we would be there if it did. We were hot on the trail. Now, everyone was very cool. A Kansas state trooper (骑警) introduced himself through the window. There was pretended surprise when he said how fast we had been going. Really? Wow, sorry.Val Cator handed over his drivers license. His wife, Amy, took the registration out of the glove box. Val explained they were storm chasers with Channel 9 News out of Oklahoma Citythough it was hardly necessary. Their huge black truck has lightning bolts (闪光球) and Storm Tracker 9 painted on the sides.Val pointed to the radar on the laptop open next to him and said those red and green dots suggested a tornado could form this afternoon. The state trooper was apathetic. “Ive got that in my car too,” he said. People here keep a close eye on the weather. Its part of living in the tornado alley. Every year some town or other is blown off the map by tornadoes that can reach 300 miles an hour.Val and Amy arc just two of hundreds of possibly thousands of trackers who speed around with puters and cameras hoping to catch one of these beautiful, deadly storms. Id joined them to learn why the number of trackers keeps growing. Why are people taking real risks 一 beyond the steady diet of rest-stop junk food 一 to watch weather? Last year, a tornado killed three of the most experienced storm chasers. It picked up, crumpled (使变破) and threw their car as easily as you would a piece of paper. Dozens of other chasers were hurt in the same storm. They were crowded on a few roads when the tornado suddenly expanded and ate them.

He makes his way up, breaks the surface and feels the suns warmth. Suddenly, he bees a beautiful four-winged creature 一 a dragonfly (蜻蜓). He tries to return home, but discovers he cannot dive beneath the water. Hes unable to tell anyone about the wonders of the world above.The story wouldnt leave ray mind. I pulled my jacket tighter against the late-October wind, hurrying from my office to the drugstore, where I intended to buy a card. Occasionally I glanced up into the clear blue sky for those beautiful wings. It was just a story in a book that a friend had put in my hands after my daughters death four months earlier, I thought.Kari was only 27 years old when she died in an accident. She occupied my every waking thought. Whenever the phone rang early in the rooming, I remembered Kari, who always called me on her way to work In the middle of the night, tired but unable to sleep, I used the way her shoulders shook when she broke into that infectious laughter just to feel closer to her.Rounding the er to the drugstore, I thought of the dragonfly pin Kari always wore on her winter coat Maybe that pin was one of the reasons the story stayed with me.A few weeks after Karis death, her husband, Donnie, came to visit. We would put on forced smiles and tried to say the right things. We took a boat out on the lake. Then I looked over at Donnie. A dragonfly with light blue wings was flying just above his shoulder. All summer, I saw dragonflies wherever I went, not just by the lake. In my backyard, a dragonfly landed lightly on my wrist. A group of dragonflies even surrounded my car on my drive home from work one evening. Now it had been weeks since Id seen one. Dragonflies couldnt survive the harsh (严酷的) winter. Think of the good times, everyone kept telling me. She wouldnt want to see you so sad. But how could I not be sad?I reached the drugstore and opened the door. The cashier glanced in my dilution. Thats when I froze, unable to take another stop. Everywhere I looked were beautiful wings of dragonflies.“A late shipment of summer items,” the cashier said.They werent late for me.

However, nobody has ever bothered to ask if there was a mon number that thousands loved enough. But thanks to author Alex Bellos, it appears that such a number does exist and it is number seven!Bellos who has written many books about mathematics and spends much time talking about the subject at schools, universities and festivals, is always asked about his favorite number. Though the question always annoyed him, he realized that it was because many people feel an emotional attachment to numbers. Curious to see if that was indeed the case, Bellos decided to set up an online poll and ask the people worldwide to pick a number and then make their choice - like it, love it or be unmoved by it.To his surprise, about 44,000 people took the voluntary online survey. This was enough data for the author to draw conclusions. Though almost every number was chosen, 7 appeared to be the most popular 10% of the people that took the survey, picked it as their favorite number. He believes that 7 is the natural choice for them for many reasons. There is the cultural significance as evidenced by the seven ancient wonders of the world, seven days in a week, seven circles of the universe and last but not least, seven basic musical notes.While these are all significant, Alex thinks that the biggest reason is its numerical characteristics. It is the only number between 1 and 10 that cannot be multiplied or divided by any other number within that group. For example, multiply 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 by two and the answer can be found within the group. Though 6, 8 and 10 cant claim the same, they can be divided by two, while 9 can be divided by 3! Seven is the only number that stands untouchable!The other numbers ranking the top ten in order of popularity are 一3, 8, 4, 5, 13, 9, 6, 2 & 11. And whats the least popular number? According to Alex, that honor goes to 110.51. What motivated Alex Bellos to set up an online poll?A. His interest in mathematics.B. His being asked about his favorite number.C. His curiosity to find the truth.D. His emotional attachment to numbers.52. What do we know about die online poll done by Alex?A. About 4400 people chose seven as their favorite number.B. Participants had four choices when they chose their numbers.C. Alex was surprised to find every number was chosen by people.D. About half of the participant made their choice on a voluntary basis.53. Alex thinks the main reason for the popularity of number 7 is that .A. it always stands for seven days in a weekB. people are deeply influenced by traditional cultureC. it reminds people of seven basic musical notesD. it has special charac
