In the United States the most popular form of folk dancing since earliest days has been square-dancing. In those days, men and women worked in groups to build a house or harvest crops. When the work was done, they usually danced merrily and happily in a store or in a farm kitchen.
A square is formed by four couples who stand facing the center of the square. Each couple stands on one side of the square, the boy on the left and the girl on the right.
Large or small numbers of people can dance at one time. Sometimes 800 or 1,000 people may be dancing at the same time. Or there may be only one square of eight people.
Costumes are worn by those who square-dance. This makes the dancing more colourful to watch. Women often wear full skirts of various colors with a pretty blouse. Men may have coloured shirts and western trousers, which they wear only when square-dancing. In some country areas, everyone wears his best clothes.
Today in all parts of the United States you will find some schools, clubs, or other groups that are square dancing for fun.

Public health officials say they have proved the relation between weather condition, known as El Nino, and malaria(疟疾)。
New research shows that malaria cases increase sharply in a South American country a year after an El Nino event. However, scientists are not sure why this happens.
El Nino usually happens every four to seven years. It is caused by a warming of the surface of waters in the Pacific Ocean. El Nino develops when winds near the west coast of South America become weak. This permits a large mass of warm water from nearby Australia to move east, along the equator(赤道) toward the coast of South America. As the water moves storms develop, normal winds and ocean waters change their directions, which can cause very bad weather around the world.
Scientists have connected El Nino with diseases, such as malaria. The lack of rain caused El Nino in some areas of the world results in poor harvest. Since the lack of food makes people weak in health, scientists believe that hungry people may be unable to fight malaria and other diseases. However, public health experts do not understand why malaria cases increase in that South American country a year after an El Nino although people there are not starving. Manuel Bonner, a public health expert in London, says the research did not show dry El Nino weather is connected with malaria. One likely cause, he says, is the quick increase of mosquitos’ populations in rainy seasons after an El Nino period. He says because malaria cases become fewer in dry El Nino years people may have less ability to fight the disease.
65. Which of the following is the main cause of El Nino?
A. Storms which develop in the Atlantic.
B. Less strong winds near the west coast of South America.
C. Lack of the rain in many parts of the world.
D. Surface waters warm up in the Pacific Ocean.
66. Malaria cases increase after an El Nino probably because ___________.
A. mosquitoes grow larger in number in rainy season
B. there are more mosquitoes and people’s resist
