from its birth right up to the present day. on february 20, 1943, a farmer and his wife set out to work in their corn fields from the mexican village of paricutin. they were surprised to find the earth warm under their feet. suddenly they heard noise deep in the earth and a small hole appeared in their field. in the afternoon there was a sudden loud noise and stones were thrown high in the air. the farmers ran from the field and turned to watch. they saw the birth of a volcano. large quantities of stone and lava (岩浆) broke out and a little hill began to form. by evening this hill was 100 feet high and hot ashes (灰烬) were falling on the village. at night the strong light of the hot lava lit up the countryside. the trees near the village were killed and the villagers had to leave their houses. when the village was destroyed, its name was given to the volcano. the news quickly reached mexico city, far to the east. many people came to watch the scene. the volcano grew and grew for ten years and hundreds of square miles of forest were destroyed. then paricutin went to sleep. 21. paricutin was once the name of _. a. an old mountainb. a farmer c. a village d. a mexican22. what

explain a scientific theorybearthquakes are something that people fear. there are some places that have few or no earthquakes.most places in the world, however, have them regularly. countries that have a lot of earthquakesare usually quite mountainous . the most talked about earthquake in the united states was in san francisco in 1906. over 700 peopledied in it. the strongest one in north america was in 1964. it happened in alaska. strong earthquakes are not always the ones that kill the most people.in 1923, a very strong earthquake hit the tokyo, yokohama area of japan. a hundred and forty thousandpeople died. most of them died in fires which followed the earthquake.one of the worst earthquakes ever was in china in 1976. it killed a large number of people. the worstearthquake ever reported was also in china, in which about 800,000 people were killed or injured. this earthquakehappened in 2008. earthquakes worry people a lot. the reason is that we often do not know when they are coming. peoplecan not prepare for them. so it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.things, like those made of glass should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them on cupboards higher up. there is a strong chance of short circuits(短路) and fire breakouts during an earthquake. make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens. during an earthquake, lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged. do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. never use the elevator to go down. stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out.24. earthquakes

time watching some sort of visual entertainment, whether it is television, a video tape or a dvd. therefore, the influence of visual media cannot be ignored. one obvious influence of these media is that watching them induces(诱导) people to buy certain products. television advertising is widespread and, nowadays, even movie theaters permit advertisements. another way tv and the movies affect people is that they give people either a broader view of the world or a distorted（扭曲的） one, depending on what type of program they watch. those who watch news and educational program can learn many new things while those who watch primarily entertainment shows may come to believe that most people in the world possess great wealth and good looks. it may make them become dissatisfied with their own lives. finally, perhaps the most susceptible viewers are children, who may be unable to tell fact from fiction（虚构的事） and may try to imitate(模仿) acts that they see on tv or in the movies, many of which are harmful and dangerous. with the increasing popularity of video entertainment, society must pay attention to these effects. television and movies, while entertaining and informative, cannot take the place of real experience.28. from the passage, we know that watching television and movies can _. a. make people live better b. make people feel pleased c. make people change their way of lifed. make people live worse29. the writer holds the view that _. a. people may take no notice of the effects of the visual media b. people must pay attention to the effects of the visual media c. the influence of the visual media make the world changed greatly d. the visual media only affect young people30. what does the underlined word “susceptible” in paragraph 2 mean?a. popular b. easily influenced c. wealthy d. clever31. what would be the best title for the text? a. the influence of television and movies b. the reason why people watch television and movies c. television and movies induce people d. the importance of television and moviesddo you love beats headphones, true religion jeans, and ugg shoes? these are some of the most popular brands (牌子) around. they are also expensive. but some experts say they are not much better than cheaper brands.for example, jim wilcox works for consumer reports. he tested all kinds of headphones. he says that $80 koss pro headphones provide basically the same quality and comfort as beats. so why do people pay twice or even 10 times as much for the hottest brands?experts say its because fashionable, expensive brands send a message. brands say “i belong” or “i can afford it.”some people think that expensive brand names are worth the price. they say that some designer clothes are really top quality and that they last longer than cheaper brands. some teenagers choose to wear popular brands because these brands make them feel good about themselves.alexandra allam, 17, likes to buy brand-name products. “id rather spend the extra money to get something i know ill be satisfied with,” she says. her friend emmy swan agrees, saying,“as long as you can afford it, it seems reasonable to buy what you want.”but not all teenagers agree.“spending hundreds of dollars for designer sunglasses is stupid and unreasonable,” says daniel steinbrecher, 16. “its fake (假的) happiness.”people who are against wearing expensive brand names say that many designer brands arent any better. “its wasteful to buy things just because they are popular,” says edmund williams, 15. “youll feel better if you buy things because you like them. if you have extra money to spend, it would be better to give it to people in need.”32. the example of jims report wants to tell us _.a. popular brands make people comfortableb. koss pro headphones are better than beatsc. the hottest brands are of the highest qualityd. less-known brands may offer the same quality as name brands33. who have the same opinion on expensive brands?a. alexandra & daniel b. emmy & edmund c. emmy & alexandra d. daniel & emmy34. what does edmund think of expensive brands?a. they are not worth the priceb. they make him feel confidentc. they need to
