rumor has already been spreading for a very long time The Mayan s prediction can account for the rumor According to the rumor the earth will experience dramatic changes in 2012 and the changes will be disastrous to all of the living creatures on earth It is widely assumed that a Planet X will return to orbit the solar system The return of Planet X will have a destructive effect on the solar system as well as on some planets including the Neptune the Jupiter and the earth Planet X will cross into their orbits There s a possibility that Jupiter will change into a little sun at this time so folks will be well placed to see two suns in the sky in 2012 The solar flares 耀斑 that occur in a 11 year cycle will reach their highest point in 2012 The powerful solar flares will affect the magnetic field of the earth and cause disasters On December 21 2012 the sun and the earth will line up in the same line at the equator 赤道 The winter solstice 冬至 only occurs once every 25 800 years The events in the universe are signals that the world will come to an end As a result of the solar flares lots of disasters will happen that will destroy the face of the whole earth Scientists are making the guess primarily based on the Mayan Long Count Calendar Many films have been made about the end of the world including End Game by Alex Jones and End Clock Nostradamus 2012 The former provides insights about the way the world will become one state After the world government is in place it s going to be easy to exterminate 80 of the people in the world The rest will continue to live with assistance from advanced technology No one knows whether the world will end on December 21 2012 There is no clear answer until the day arrives Just as the Mayans claim it will not be the time for the world to end Instead it will be the dawn of a fresh start 68 What is the passage mainly about A Information about end of the world predictions B Different opinions about end of the world predictions C Some doubts

the same time B The earth will look completely different C The earth and the moon will line up in the same line D The solar flares will become stronger than before 70 The underlined word exterminate

July11th 1960 as the civil rights movement in the United States was gaining strength Laws and customs in the South however still kept blacks and whites mostly separated A mockingbird is a land of gray songbird The book gets its title from something Atticus Finch was told in his childhood when his father gave him a gun Atticus Finch said I remember when my daddy first gave me that gun he told me that I should never point at anything in the house and that I could shoot all the blue jays I wanted if I could hit them But remember it was a sin 罪过 to kill a mockingbird for they don t hurt anyone they just make music Some people said To Kill a Mockingbird treats racism in a way that is simplisite 过分单纯化的 even offensive to blacks and out of date in today s America Still it has been translated into more than forty languages and has sold over forty million copies It is often required reading in high schools H
