A helicopter is sometime more useful than a big plane. When it

takes off, it goes straight on. When it lands, it comes traight down.

It needs not only a small place for both taking off and landing. When

a tall building is on fire, we can see a helicopter to come down to rescue

the people on the top of them. Helicopters make many kinds of work easy.

They are used to making maps, flying over the ground and taking pictures

from the air. To rescue people whom are very sick or in danger,

helicopters are send to some faraway areas. The helicopter may take

place of a car or a train in some cases.

A
The year is 2094. It has been announced that a comet (彗星) is heading towards the Earth. Most of it will miss our planet, but two pieces will probably hit the southern half of the Earth.
On 17 July , a piece four kilometers wide enters the Earth’s atmosphere with a massive explosion. About half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and a huge hole is made in the sea bed. Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole. The wall of water, a kilometer high, rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned.
Before the waves reach South America, the second piece of the comet lands in Argentina. Earthquakes and volcanoes are set off in the Andes Mountains. The shock waves move north into California and all around the Pacific Ocean. The cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes. Millions of people in the southern half of the earth are already dead, but the north won’t escape for long. Because of the explosions, the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, temperatures around the world fall to almost zero .Crops are ruined. The sun won’t
be seen again for many years. Wars break out as countries fight for food. A year later, no more than 10 million people remain alive.
Could it really happen? In fact, it has already happened more than once in the history of the Earth. The dinosaurs were on the Earth for over 160 million years. Then 65 million years ago they suddenly disappeared. Many scientists believe that the Earth was hit by a piece of object in space. The dinosaurs couldn’t live through the cold climate that followed and they died out. Will we meet the same end?
1．What is mainly described in the passage?
A．A historic discovery. B．An event of imagination.
C．A research on space. D．A scientific adventure.
2．When the first piece hits the South Atlantic, it causes .
A．an earthquake B．damages to cities
C．an Earth explosion D．huge waves
3．Why can’t the northern half of the earth escape for long?
A．Because the land is covered with water
B．Because the light and heat from the sun can not reach the earth.
C．Because people there can not live at the temperature of zero.
D．Because wars break out among countries .
4．By giving the example of dinosaurs, the author tries to prove .
A．animals could not live in the cold climate
B．what happened 65 million years ago was an invented story
C．the human beings will die out in 2094
D．the Earth could be hit by other objects in space

B
Everyone has got two personalities(性格)- the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you're a-wake because you can control your behaviour, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.
● If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don’t like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t very confident.
● Oil you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. You worry a lot and you're always easily upset. You're very stubborn, but you aren't very ambitious. You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.
●If you sleep on curling(蜷缩)up, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you're often defensive. You're shy and you don't normally like meeting people. You prefer to___________________.
●If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weakness. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don't often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.
