21、Ways to Predict the Weather Without a Forecast

Most of us know about the weather from the weather report. However, we can know the weather by ourselves. It is a fun hobby, and it can also be a useful skill if you enjoy outdoor activities, such as hiking or camping. By learning what to look for, you can predict(预测) the weather.

▲Watch the Wind and Air.

Observe the direction(方向) of wind. Wind comes when air moves. Since weather moves in from the west, westerly winds bring good weather. Easterly winds suggest that the bad weather is coming toward you.

You can use grass or flower petals(花瓣) to decide the direction of the wind. Throw your grass or flower petals into the air and watch the direction of the wind.

▲Watch smoke from a fire.

The air pressure(压力) decides what direction the smoke will go. In high pressure high up in the sky, the smoke will go up into the air. If the pressure is low, it will be back down around the fire. If you see the smoke back down, bad weather is likely on the way.

▲Take a deep breath.

Close your eyes and smell the air. Smells become wet right before a storm, making them stronger. Before a storm, you should also notice a compost(堆肥) smell as plants release(释放) their waste. If you start to smell this, it likely means that a storm is coming.

【1】The underlined word “Observe” means ________.

A．have

B．play

C．watch

D．smell

【2】Which of the following is true?

A．The grass stands still in the wind.

B．The flower petals can’t tell us anything about the weather.

C．The air pressure is the same in all the places.

D．You can smell the air to know about the weather.

【3】The main idea is about _________.

A．the wind is strong

B．how to tell the weather

C．how to get home earlier

D．how to travel

23、   E-book is short for electronic book. It is usually read on personal computers. Some mobile phones can also be used-to read e-books.

Earlier e-books were written for a special group of readers and were about only a few subjects. With the development(发展）of the Internet, knowledge and answers to a lot of questions mainly come from e-books. This is why the e-book business is increasing quickly.

E-books have many advantages. First, they save time. We don't need to go to a bookstore to buy books. Besides, we can find the topic we want to know about on the Internet, and then we can quickly get many e-books on similar topics. Second, e-books save money. Some e-books cost a little money, and there are millions of e-books on the Internet that we can get for free.Third, more trees are saved because e-books don't need to be printed on paper. Fourth, e-books make reading more convenient. You can carry a whole library of hundreds of books with you in a small computer or any e-book reader(电子阅读器）without worrying about their weight.

But e-books have some problems. They need a personal computer or an e-book reader and the information can be lost if its file format(文件格式)is not supported or changed in the reader's computer.

However, e-books give us a new way of reading. That is wonderful.

24、For the first time, the Palace Museum opened its doors to the public at night for two days in February, 2019. It gives visitors the chance to see its palaces and temples in beautiful lights. The idea was a hit.

The webpage for people to sign for free tickets went wrong because of traffic. The museum gave away 500 tickets for people to, join 2,500 invited guests(特邀嘉宾) on Tuesday, and another 3,000 tickets for Wednesday night.

These lucky visitors enjoyed light shows and a Beijing opera show at the Belvedere of Pleasant Sounds, the Palace Museum's largest theatre. They could hear the music all over the museum, as there were fewer people at night than during the day.

The opening was part of an effort(努力)to change the image(形象)of the Palace Museum as it has always been conservative(保守的).

"The more the Palace Museum does, the more influential(有影响力的)it will be," said Shan Jixiang, the museum's director.

Yang Jie visited the museum with her husband on Tuesday night. She said the light show was wonderful.

"It makes it possible to see a different side of the Palace Museum," she said.
