When, suddenly, your mobile phone loses its signal, the television has no programs, and you cant get online with your computer.What has happened? These are just the types of problems a solar storm（太阳风暴）might cause. You may not think of storms as putting our society in danger. But today, a solar storm is as serious as other bad events, such as earthquakes.A solar storm is caused by solar flares（太阳耀斑）: large explosions（爆炸）near the sun that can give off lots of energy. The strong energy can stop the satellite systems（卫星系统）that control our computers, telecom networks and so on. These storms can even cause the power to go out for weeks or months.In the past few months, scientists have recorded some of the strongest sun flares in years. The most recent one happened around Valentines Day, 2011. It caused radio and satellite signals to go down in some northern cities in China.“Solar flare activity is going to be much worse than what weve seen in the past. Were not talking about a few cities losing power, it could be half of the country, maybe more.” SolarStormW, a US website about space weather, warned.Scientists say that little can be done to predict such a storm. Governments around the world are trying to work together before the next storm, although they are not sure when that may happen.（1）According to the passage, a solar storm can cause many problems EXCEPT that . A . earthquakes happenB . mobile phones have no signalsC . people cannot get onlineD . the power may go out（2）According to the passage, solar flares are .

A . call for scientists to predict when the next solar storm will happenB . tell people how to solve the problems caused by solar stormsC . introduce what solar storms are to peopleD . ask people to work to prevent the solar storm from happening（5）In Paragraph 1, the underlined word “signa l” means . A . 电池B . 标志C . 力量D . 信号19. （10分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中选出最佳选项。BDreams may be more important than sleep. Some people dont need much sleep. But we all need to dream, scientists say.Dreams take up about one quarter of our sleeping time. People have several dreams each night. Dreams are like short films. They are usually in color. Some dreams are like old films. They come to us over and over again. That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something. Dreaming may be a way of trying to find an answer.Some people get new ideas about their work from dreams. They could have been thinking about their work all day. These thoughts can carry over into dream. Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream. But often we cant remember the dream.Dreams can disappear quickly from memory. Too much dreaming can be harmful. The more we sleep, the longer we dream. The mind is hard at working when we dream.
