2、

Did you know that a new blog is being created each second? Many of these bloggers are teenagers. While their parents wrote in a diary to express their feelings, or shared their problems with friends, teens are now using blogs instead. In fact, in the US, one in every five school-aged teens has a blog. Most of these are just chatters(唠叨), 【1】 a few have become Internet success.

For example, Chloe Spencer’s blog ‘Neopets Fanatic’ gets around 300,000 hits per month. When Chloe was 15, she started the blog out of her 【2】 liking for Neopets, a kind of pet website. One reason why her blog has so many visitors is that she gives 【3】 and tips for the popular pet site.

Then there is Tavi Gevinson’s blog ‘Style Rookie’. It is said to get 1.5 million hits per month. Tavi, who started her blog when she was just 12, 【4】 photos of her own clothes online as well as designers’ collections. Tavi’s blog has caught on because she knows a lot about style for someone so young, and she is not afraid to try out 【5】 clothes or see things in a different way.

Blogs like these are interesting, but they only become really popular after better-known websites are linked to them or they get noticed by the media. For example, Tavi’s blog became an overnight 【6】 after being written about in The New York Times. Popular blogs can even earn money, usually from advertisements that companies pay to put up on the bloggers’ sites.

So for some, blogging is just a recreation(消遣), but for others, it can become a source of income and even a full-time job!

21、Wind, water, fire and ice—these powerful natural forces have shaped the land of America in the past. They are still changing it today.

The Colorado River slowly cut down through stone to make the Grand Canyon(大峡谷).

Long ago, ice sheets cut Yosemite Valley and the Great Lakes, and glaciers are still on the move in Alaska.

Wind and rain storm hit the land from time to time. Fires sometimes burn down forests and destroy the homes of wild animals. This happened in Yellowstone Park in 1988.

Dead volcanic mountains (火山) such as Haleakala on Maui and Carter Lake in Oregon are beautiful to look at. But there are several active volcanoes in the US, especially along the Pacific Coast. There are also many earthquakes in this area. Scientists can do nothing to control earthquakes or volcanoes. This was shown clearly on May 18, 1980. At 8:32 that morning, Mount St Helens in Washington state broke out. The top of the mountain was blown off.

Over 60 people—campers, scientists, journalists, forest workers were killed. Hundreds of square miles of forests were knocked down. In towns over 100 miles away, day suddenly became night. An ash cloud hid the sun for many hours. Towns and fields in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho were covered with dirty gray ash.

Scientists knew that Mt St Helens might erupt (爆发) soon. But no one could say when. And no one expected the terrible strength of the eruption. Many people were surprised and unready. Harry Truman, 84, owned a small hotel in Mt St Helens. Scientists had asked people to move away because the volcano was becoming dangerous. But Harry Truman would not leave his home. Now it is covered with many feet of dirty ash. A small CIOSS stands above the place where Harry probably died. Perhaps it is better that he did not see the destruction of Mt St Helens, the once beautiful lake, and the forests.

But slowly, life is returning to the dead area around the mountain. Grass and small plants are beginning to grow again. Deer and birds have been seen. The land will never be the same as it once was. Perhaps Mt St Helens will erupt again. But this is all part of nature’s pattern of change, and man has little power to control it.

【1】What made the sky turn dark after the eruption of Mount St Helens?

A．The smoke.

B．The clouds.

C．The fog.

D．The ash.

【2】The underlined word “it” in paragraph 7 refers to ________.

A．the body of old Harry

B．the place of Harry’s home

C．the opening on top of Mt St Helens

D．the place where Harry probably died

【3】We can infer from this article that ________.

A．Washington and Oregon are neighboring states

B．Colorado River runs through Yosemite Valley

C．the eruption of Mt St Helens also caused trouble with the Yellowstone Park

D．scientists never knew Mt St Helens was active

【4】Which is the best title for this passage?

A．Wind, water, fire and ice

B．Volcano’s beauty and danger

C．The power of nature

D．Natural force shapes beautiful land of America

22、Sometimes, using hand gestures can bring more information and be more convenient than words, especially when you are speaking to someone with no language in common. But the same gesture can mean something quite nasty and offensive (冒犯的) to a person from a different cultural background.

“V” Shape

In many countries, if you have your index and middle fingers pointed up in the “V” shape. It stands for winning. However, when you make the sign, be sure to have the front of your palm facing outward instead of inward, because showing people the back of your hand is impolite in some countries like the UK and Australia.

Finger Snap (打响指)

Snapping your thumb and middle finger over and over may mean one is trying to remind someone of something forgotten. While, in Latin America, snapping them means asking one to hurry up. But one thing you should remember is that, in many cultures, snapping fingers close to someone’s face is considered to be an offensive gesture.

Fingers Crossed

Crossing the index and middle fingers is regarded as a sign of wishing for good luck or fortune. At other times, people cross their fingers before telling a lie, as it is believed to countervail (抵消) the bad things coming from the lie. So it is both a positive and negative symbol.

ILY sign

This is always a nice hand gesture from American Sign Language. It combines the letters “I”, “L” and “Y” to mean “I love you.” People use this gesture very often to show their love for their family, friends and all the other people they love.

Counting with Fingers.

And finally, for the most useful signs — how to count the numbers from one to ten. Notice how English-speaking countries use both hands instead of one. So the next time you go to a market in the US, remember to use these signs to bargain.

【1】On Mother’s Day, ________ can best show love to your mom instead of words.

A．

B．

C．

D．

【2】If you know how to count with fingers, you can ________.

D．ask someone to hurry up.

A．tell the differences between American and Chinese cultures

B．warn people to be careful when using a hand gesture

【5】From the passage we can know that ________.

A．“V” shape sign means reminding someone of something forgotten

B．fingers crossed is always considered as a positive sign

C．ILY sign is often used to wish for good luck and fortune

D．snapping fingers close to someone’s face may be impolite
