that weather is a favorite topic for so many people around the world-it affects where we choose to live, what we wear, our moods, and perhaps even our national characteristics. studies have shown that changeable weather can make it difficult to concentrate, cloudy skies slow down reaction, and high humidity with hot, dry winds makes many people bad-tempered. if you live in a place like britain, where the weather seems to change daily if not hourly, you could be forgiven for thinking that the weather is random. in fact, the weather is controlled by systems which move around areas of the globe. in the uk the weather depends on depressions, often called lows, and anticyclones, also known as highs. these systems start in the atlantic ocean, and make their way across the british isles from the west to the east. highs bring sunny weather, while lows bring rain and wind. in modern times, human activities seem to be altering weather patterns. gases produced by heavy industry change the temperature of the earths surface, and affect cloud formation. some researchers say that factories in europe and north america may have been one of the causes of the droughts in africa in the 1980s. the human race has always tried to guess the weather, especially in areas of the world where there are frequent changes. traditional rhymes point to early attempts to identify weather patterns, popular poems include:red sky at night, shepherds delight; red sky in the morning, shepherds warning. flies will swarm before a storm. rain before 7, clear by 11. while folk wisdom can still provide a guide to help forecast weather, todays methods of prediction increasingly rely on technology. satellites, balloons, ships, aircrafts and weather centers with sensitive monitoring equipment, send data to computers. the data is then processed, and the weather is predicted. however, even this system cannot predict weather for longer than about a week. 31. when weather keeps changing, _. a. people become bad-tempered b. peoples reaction slows downc. people find it hard to focus on their work d. people become hungrier32. what is mainly talked about in the second paragraph?a. changes in weather. b. weather in britain. c. african droughts. d. research on weather. 33. the weather in britain is _. a. randomb. moistc. depressingd. satisfying34. according to a traditional rhyme, if there is a red sky at night, the next day will be _. a. windy b. rainy c. fined. snowy35. which of the following statements is true?a. anticyclones often bring rain and wind. b. weather forecasting has been done for a long time. c. weather could never be predicted. d. modern methods of weather prediction are developed from folk wisdom. 【参考答案】31-35 caacb 社会生活类-2012湖北卷 b when my brother and i were young, my mom would take us on transportation days. it goes like this: you cant take any means of transportation more than once. we would start from home, walking two blocks to the rail station. wed take the train into the city center, then a bus, switching to the train, then maybe a taxi. we always considered taking a horse carriage in the historic district, but we didnt like the way the horses were treated, so we never did. at the end of the day, we took the subway to our closest station, where moms friend was waiting to give us a ride homeour first car ride of the day. the good thing about transportation days is not only that mom taught us how to get around. she was born to be multimodal (多方式的). she understood that depending on cars only was a failure of imagination and, above all, a failure of confidencethe product of a childhood not spent exploring subway tunnels. once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform, nothing is frightening anymore. new cities are just lightrail lines to be explored. and your personal car, if you have one, becomes just one more tool in the toolboxand often an inadequate one, limiting both your mobility and your wallet. on transportation days, we might stop for lunch on chestrut street or buy a new book or toy, but the transportation was the point. first, it was exciting enough to watch the world speed by from the train window. as i got older, my mom helped me unlock the mysteries that would otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself: how do i know where to get off? how do i know how much it costs? how do i know when i need tickets, and where to get them? what track, what line, which direction, wheres the stop, and will i get wet when we go under the river?im writing this right now on an airplane, a means we didnt try on our transportation days and, we now know, the dirtiest and most polluting of them all. my
