27、   Dust storms don't just happen in the middle of the desert. They happen in any dry area where loose dirt can easily be picked up. The sand blown into the air by the wind usually falls back down to the ground after a few hours. Smaller bits of particles (微粒) stay in the air for a week or longer and can be blown thousands of miles away. Dust from the Sahara is always blown across the Atlantic and keeps travelling as far as Caribbean.

The scary thing about sandstorm is that they can spread over hundreds of miles and rise over 10,000 feet (305 meters). They also have wind speeds of at least 25 miles per hour (40km). Not strong enough to blow the feathers off a chicken but still something worth avoiding.

Don't be surprised if you suddenly see a dust storm heading your way. Dust storms usually arrive without warning and move in the form of a big wall of dust. The dust makes driving impossible. Often they only last for a few minutes but storms usually leave serious car accidents behind. If you are in a car during a dust storm, remind the driver to pull over and turn off the headlights.

In mild (轻微的) dust storms, it's still impossible to walk around although you wouldn't want to. You can't see anything because of the dust particles flying around. It's not just the dust you want to avoid. The wind carrying the dust will leave things as if they were just hit by a tornado. The best thing to do is find a safe place in a building.

【1】What can we know from paragraph l?

A. Sand blown into the air can float for months.

B. Dust storms don't happen in the heart of the desert.

C. Dust blown into the air can travel a very long distance.

D. Smaller bits of particles stay in the air for only a few hours.

【2】What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?

A. The speed of the wind. B. The harm of dust storms.

C. The movement of dust. D. The power of dust storms.

【3】What should a driver do when he is caught in a dust storm?

A. Stop by the roadside. B. Slow down a little bit.

C. Turn on the headlights. D. Drive along the side of the road.

【4】Which of the following statement is TRUE when the dust storm is not strong?

A. You should find a safe shelter. B. You can walk around as usual.

C. There is no need to avoid dust. D. People can see everything clearly.

28、   The Ig Nobel Prizes praise research that makes you laugh and then think. The winners are allowed to make a one-minute speech with time kept by an eight-year-old! Every year, in Harvard' s Sanders Theatre, people watch the winners step forward to accept their prizes. These are physically handed out by real Nobel laureates （获得者）.Let' s have a look at some of them.

The Empty Bladder （膀胱）Experiment

Four researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology found that animals above 3 kg empty their bladders in about 21 seconds. What is the purpose of this study? The researchers hope this will help solve urinary （泌尿的）problems in animals.

The Science of Eggs

A team of Australian scientists managed to get hard-boiled egg whites to become raw again. While it sounds silly, this research could have a serious influence on cancer （癌症） research.

The Fascination with Animals

Charles Foster and Thomas Thwaites from the UK shared the 2016 Ig Nobel Prize in Biology. Thomas chose to live like a goat and wrote about his experience in "GoatMan: How I Took a Holiday from Being Human". Charles, on the other hand, spent some time in the wild, trying out the lives of many animals. He felt it gave him a chance to explore the world around us with more of our senses.

Colors & Horseflies

A team from Hungary, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland won the 2016 Ig Nobel Prize in Physics. They studied why horseflies have less interest in white-haired horses. The team used handmade horses covered in glue. They found that dark colors attracted more flies because of how sunlight reflected （反射）off them. To the food searchers, it was a sign of food. This finding could explain the white coats of zebras too.

【1】Who give the Ig Nobel winners their prizes?

A. Eight-year-olds. B. Harvard professors.

C. Nobel Prize winners. D. Nobel Prize organizers.

【2】What did Charles Foster and Thomas Tliwaites have in common?

A. Zebras B. Horseflies

C. Handmade horses D. White-haired horses

29、Strangely enough, music is no fun at all for some people. About four percent of the population is what scientists call "amusic", People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize or reproduce musical notes. Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs. Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they are very far apart on the musical scale.

As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. Their inability to enjoy music set them apart from others. It can be difficult for other people to identify with their condition. In fact, most people cannot begin to grasp what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many amusics intentionally stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in withdrawal and social isolation. "I used to hate parties," says Margaret, a seventy-year- old woman who only recently discovered that she was amusic.

By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusual condition.

Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from the brains of people who can appreciate music. The difference is complex, and it doesn't involve defective hearing. Amusics can understand other nonmusical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding ordinary speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just can't see certain colors.

Many amusics are happy when their condition is final diagnosed. For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem with music. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for her condition. That makes it easier for her to explain. "When people invite me to a concert, I just say, No, thanks, I am amusic',"says Margaret. "I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy. "

【1】Amusics have the following characteristics except that___________

A．they are born without the ability to recognize musical notes

B．they hate music and often keep off places where there is music

C．they are set apart from others as they fail to enjoy music

D．they prefer to make metal noise rather than listen to music

【2】How do scientists finally identify the unusual condition of amusic?

A．By sorting documents and data.

B．By studying people with amusic

C．By making a lot of experiments.

D．By drawing on research results of others.

【3】What does the underlined word most probably mean in the passage?

A．detective.

B．acute.

C．imperfect.

D．artificial.

【4】In the last paragraph, Margaret expressed her wish that __________

A．she were seventeen years old rather than seventy

B．she hadn't felt embarrassed about her problem

C．her problem with music had been diagnosed earlier

D．there could be a better name for her condition

32、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

My family and I go to the Big Island of Hawaii in the United States every year. Each year, we do the same things-spend time at the beaches, surfing and fishing. On this trip, however, my family got tired of this holiday style and wanted to do something different. We learned from a local that there was a hot spring on the island called the Boiling Pots. Without doing any research, we decided to set off on an adventure to that spot.

We drove to the destination, but were surprised to find that the area was closed off by a fence (栅栏). Reading the sign placed in front of the gate, we found out it was, in fact, a forbidden area that lay at the bottom of the mountain. And we were on the mountaintop. Seemingly out of nowhere, a strange man came up to us. He told us he would go to the Boiling Pots and that he would show us the way down there if we would just jump over the fence and follow him. After some discussion, my family, 8 members, followed the man past the fence.

The 'path' was a slope (斜坡) covered in mud and high grass. Several times, our members fell but nobody gave up and turned back because it seemed an amazing adventure.

After about one hour's walk, we arrived at the bottom finally, but a large river stopped us. The strange man went to borrow a boat from his friend living nearby. We stood on the bank, waiting for him and joking that we could swim across the river.

Just then, I heard the voice of my father screaming at us to move. I looked up to the sky and saw a large tree falling towards us. I ran forward, pushing the people in front of me. I fell to the ground, hearing a loud sound of the tree hitting the ground, along with pieces of branches surrounding us.
