6、 Weather Conditions Laj amanu, Australia, is a dry little town, sitting right on the edge of the Tanami desert. Can you imagine how surprised people were when live fish rained down on them from a dark gray cloud. It happens that there are similar cases in England and Honduras. How do clouds make fis

7、h? The simple answer is that they dont. There is a particular weather phenomenon(现象) called a waterspout. A waterspout is just like a tornado, only it forms above oceans, lakes, or rivers. Like a tornado, a waterspout moves in a circle at high speeds. When it moves above the water, it tends to carry

8、 the fish with it, as well as frogs or other small plants or animals. Scientists couldnt work it out at first. To make matters stranger still, the fish in Honduras were very much alive when they rained down to the ground, but they were all blind. In England and Australia, it rained fish and snakes,

9、and none were blind. It was difficult to puzzle out, but the blind fish gave them a place to start. Scientists knew that some fish that lived in deep, underground caves with no light sources often lost their eyesight. So when blind fish rained down on Honduras, scientists began to connect some dots.

10、 Clearly, these particular fish were pulled from an underground water source by force. It has rained fish on every continent, and each time, people have tried in various ways to explain this strange phenomenon. Historically, villagers thought the fishes from the heavens might be answers to prayers f

11、or food. Others suggested that floods overran river banks and oceans, leaving the fish on the city streets. No scientist had actually seen the rain as it occurred, only the fish left on the ground. But in 1990, a National Geographic team happened to be in Honduras when the Rain of Fishes began. They

12、 recorded what was happening and made history by finally proving that the fish really did fall from the sky. This huge breakthrough wasnt just a spot of good luck. It changed thousands of years of myths and legends into true stories and provided scientific explanations for how fish came to live in d

13、eep caves. It explained ancient cave paintings and shed new light on how species have spread over time. It turned out to be a lot more than just a little fishy weather.1.According to the passage, a waterspout _.A.can make animals blindB.is difficult to catch on filmC.can carry items with itD.is a da

Our answers may differ greatly. Even now your a

17、spirations(志向,抱负)may have changed from when you were in primary school.However, it seems career options arent only based on personal taste. In a survey carried out by Teens, doctors, lawyers, and bankers were some of most popular careers that people said they hoped to follow. This is in line with a

18、similar survey carried out in the UK in May 2011 by a job website, in which medicine was the top choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17.Medicine and law are two of the oldest and best known professions. Their prestige (威望) may come from the fact that doctors and lawyers are much-respected

19、members of society, and they make good money. Whats more, these professions are often seen as a sign of upper social class.It is equally unsurprising that banking is now one of the most common career choices. Youngsters worldwide think of banking to see the money rolling in. Wealth is increasingly b

20、ecoming one of the most important indicators(标志) of a successful career. .However, not every child has the makings of a doctor, a lawyer, or a banker. They are those who see achievements and happiness in other areas. As the Teens survey discovered, a variety of unconventional jobs-a coffee shop owne

21、r, a gourmet(美食家), a waiter at a fast food restaurant-are among teenagers career choices. They can be equally interesting and rewarding jobs.With every choice come responsibility and challenge, and all career paths require specific education and training, so you have to learn to balance optimism(乐观主

22、义)and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills.1.What is the passage mainly about?A.The fact that the teenagers in the UK like doctors.B.The importance of choosing a good job.C.Careers in teenagers mind.D.The fact that the choice of career needs challenge.2.What is th

Nearly everything they study at school has some practical use in their life. But is that _ only reason why they go to school? There is more in education _ ju

27、st learning facts. We go to school to learn how to learn, so that when we have left school we can continue to learn. A man _ really knows how to learn will always be _ (succeed), because when he has to do something new, he will not only be able to do it well himself, but he will also be able to teac

28、h others how to do it in the _ (good) way. The person with poor education, on the other hand, either finds himself unable to do something new, or just _ (do) it badly.
