Rather than observing the lightning from the ground, scientists are watching the lightning from airplanes that fly at high altitudes(海拔) above the surface of Earth. The splended phenomenawhich have been given the imaginary names of “red sprites,” “blue jets,” and “elves”occur high in the atmosphere above the clouds.During some storms a sudded flash of light will spread over the upper atmosphere with a red light that can extend as far as 60 miles above Earth. Known as a sprite, this lightning appears in the sky often in the shape of a huge carrot or jellyfish in groups of two or more. Blue jets are flashes of bloe light that emanate from the top of thunderstorms and then spreading upward as much as 20 miles above Earth. These jets of light can increase in size at speeds near 60 miles per second. Elves are the most recently discovered type of hightaltitude lightning. These flashes take place 40 to 60 miles above Earth and often appear just before sprites and are much brighter than sprites. Because they occur too fast to be seen with eyes, they can be detected only by instruments.Although acientists do not have a certain explanation for the phenomena, they are making some progress. For example, one popular theory is that the light seen from the red sprites and blue jets results from the collision(碰撞) of electrically charged tiny bits with nitrogen molecules(氮分子) in Earths atmosphere. The collision causes molecules to shine blue in the stratosphere, or lower ultitudes. These same molecules shine red in the mesosphere, the atmosphere above the stratosphere, and they can spread to an altitude of about 50 miles. Elves seem to be caused when forceful lightning hits the ground and sends electrically charged bits into the higher altitudes.63. What is the common characteristic of “red sprites,” “blue jets” and “elves”?A. They are sudden blue flashes.B. They can only be discovered by equipment.C. They are caused by the collision of atmosphere.D. They spread upward 20 to 60 miles above Earth.64. The words “emanate from” underlined in paragraph 2 probably mean .A. come fromB. result fromC. break away fromD. range from65. What is the third paragraph about?A. A research about the Earth.B. The causes of the collision.C. An explanation for the phenoment.D. Different theories about lightning.66. What is the best title of this passage?A. A Frightening Study.B. Movement of the Molecules.C. The Changeable Atmosphere.D. Lightning above the Clouds.DIn last weeks edition I read “Novel Without a Plot(情节)”, by Carlo Dante, a review of Adele Kmans latest novel. I, too, have read The Newcomer. Dante insists The Newcomer lacks a plot. He fails to recognize that some novels are plotdriven and others are charactercentered. Clearly Dante prefers to read the former and feels it reasonable and acceptable to force readers to accept his preference. There are many readers who do not require a story to drive us quickly from out actionpacked moment to the next. We are content to get to know an interesting character who meets challenges and tries various ways to overcome them.Violet Wang is a wonderful example of this type of character, and we are fortunate that the novel is told from her point of view. We first experience her world in San Francisco, where she is surrounded by Chinese American traditions and the support of a large family. We feel her confusion and upsetting sense of loss as she must leave all that is familiar to her.When Violet arrives in the area that will be her new home, we see its beauty and mystery through her eyes. As she tries to adapt to the life in a place where she feels like an outsider, many of us may remember similar times in our own lives. We ache when she hurts and feel great success in our hearts when she experiences progress.I wont tell you why Violet has had to make such a great life change or how she comes terms with it, Unlike Dante, I think that most readers would greatly enjoy this book. In these times of autionadventure movies and computer games, many have lost the patience to be readers, thinkers, and human beings concerned with various feelings. I think that someone who fails to see the value in this book is missing out on a lot.67. Aocording to the author, what do we learn about Carlo Dante?A. He has the same experience as Violet Wang.B. He has a positive view on Adele Kwans novel.C. He likes novels having actionpacked moments better.D. He thinks most readers would appreciate The Newcomer.68. What do we know about Violet Wang?A. She is misunderstood by Carlo Dante.B. She has experienced great changes in her life.C. She is confused by Chinese American traditions.D. She has become more outgoing since her move.69. In the authors opinion, what kind of book is The Newcomer?A. Its a fine charactercentered novel.B. Its Adele Kwans latest best seller.C. Its a novel accepted by action movie
