【题目】 "Like a monster, it destroys everything. " That's how one school girl described a tsunami(海啸).

On Dec. 26, 2004, a magnitude-9. 1 earthquake in Indonesia set off a massive tsunami. It killed more than 230,000 people across four countries and cost an estimated $ 10 billion in damage.

Nov. 5 is World Tsunami Awareness Day and at the United Nations Wednesday, disaster risk reduction was high on the agenda.

"What I can tell you is that the tsunami wave cannot be stopped," said Bulgarians U. N. Ambassador Georgi Velikov Panayotov. He was on vacation in Thailand in 2004 and survived the tsunami. "What we can do is build early warning systems and, of course, educate the population about the damaging power of the tsunami wave," he said.

On March 11, 2011, a magnitude-9 earthquake rocked northeastern Japan triggering a fierce tsunami that also damaged the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, south of Sendai.

"When the big earthquake hit Japan in 2011, people thought that we were prepared for it," said Japan's U. N. Ambassador Koro Bessho. "It caused severe damage. We had dams we had drills. However, we had been counting on something that hits every 100 years and the earthquake was of the size of possibly every 500 years or thousand years, he said.

These two events sent the countries of the region into overdrive to review and improve disaster preparedness. In 2015 the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction was born. It aims to help create a better understanding of disaster risk and improve preparedness for an effective response.

Indonesia is made up of thousands of islands which are disaster-prone(易受灾地区). Willem Rampangilei, head of the Disaster Management Agency of Indonesia, said his government now has plans for every disaster-prone city.

Countries at risk are also expanding their education programs. Children from an early age are taught how to react in case of a tsunami and then go with their classmates to higher ground away from coastal areas to avoid the walls of water the tsunami triggers.

1What does Georgi Velikov Panayotov mainly talk about?

A.The general features of a tsunami.B.Ways for humans to face a tsunami.

C.His suffering in the 2004 tsunami.D.The loss caused by the 2004 tsunami.

2In Koro Bessho's opinion, why did the 2011 earthquake cause severe damage?

A.It caused a fierce tsunami.B.It destroyed a nuclear plant.

C.The size was beyond expectation.D.There was no effective defense system.

3What common belief pushed different countries to take action to face a coming tsunami?

A.Children should be protected by all means.

B.The improvement of preparedness can reduce damage.

C.Proper response in case of a tsunami can save one's life.

D.Stronger measures should be taken in disaster-prone areas.

4Which can be the best title of the text?

A.World Tsunami Awareness Day

B.Nations Attacked by Massive Tsunami

C.The Unpredictable and Destructive Disaster

D.Learn from Disasters to Prevent Future Ones

【题目】 A 2015 survey found that two out of three U.S. teens owned an iPhone. For this reason, I call them iGen, and as I explain in my new book “iGen: Why Today’s Super-Connected Kids are Growing up Less Rebellious(反叛的), More Tolerant, Less Happy-and Completely Unprepared for Adulthood,”1.

What makes iGen different? 2. They spend so much time on the internet, texting friends and on social media—in the large surveys I analyzed for the book, an average of about six hours per day—that they have less leisure time for everything else.

That includes what was once the favorite activity of most teens:3. Whether it’s going to parties, shopping at the mall, watching movies or aimlessly driving around, iGen teens are participating in these social activities at a significantly lower rate than previous generations.

4: In the annual Monitoring the Future survey, the percentage of high school seniors who read a nonrequired book or magazine nearly every day dropped from 60 percent in 1980 to only 16 percent in 2015.

This isn’t to say that iGen teens don’t have a lot going for them. 5 . They also seem to have a stronger work ethic and more realistic expectations than millennials(千禧一代) did at the same age.

To be clear, moderate smartphone and social media use—up to an hour a day—is not linked to mental health issues. However, most teens (and adults) are on their phones much more than that.

A.spending most of their free time on screens

B.hanging out with their friends

C.They would rather see their friends in person than communicate with them using their phones

D.Growing up with a smartphone has affected nearly every aspect of their lives

E.They are physically safer and more tolerant than previous generations were

F.They’re the first generation to spend their adolescence with a smartphone

G.In addition, iGen reads books, magazines and newspapers much less than previous generations did as teens

【题目】How to Break the Anxiety Cycle

People who suffer from anxiety tend to be stuck in an ongoing loop of avoidance. It’s the classic dynamic of anxiety: 1, our symptoms tend to increase, and in turn this drives the anxiety up and makes the things we’re afraid of scarier. Here are some techniques on how to slowly overcome this mental health challenge. 2. Words have power. For example, saying “I am panicked about going to this party tonight” will put you in a more negative state of mind compared to saying “I’d prefer if I didn’t have to go to this party.” Start by putting your words to the positive and to a point where you still feel it resonates(共鸣).

Let go of perfectionism. People with social anxiety feel as if they are walking on a social tightrope. 3. We have unrealistic high standards where we think we must be cool, positive, and witty while carrying the entire conversation—it’s too much. And keep in mind that you are not expected to be someone you’re not in order to get people to like you.

Make small gestures. Instead of “jumping off a cliff” and walking straight into a situation that makes you anxious, start becoming more expressive in situations that you feel are less threatening.

4, say good morning to a neighbor you rarely speak with, or tell your hairstylist the exact look you’ re going for instead of agreeing with their suggestion.

Shift your awareness. Our attention is like a spotlight and we choose where to point it. Those with social anxiety tend to point that spotlight inward and state the commentary of our inner critic.

5.

A.Choose your words carefully

B.Pay attention to your health condition

C.For example, ask a stranger for directions

D.When we avoid the things we’re afraid of

E.If the things reduce feelings of social anxiety

F.It’s this idea that we need to perform perfectly

G.Focus on what’s happening around you, not inside you

【题目】 The fact that your hair turns grey because of stress is nothing more than an old wives' tale. It's true that stress isn't good for you, but it's not going to turn you into a silver fox just yet. In fact, the answer comes from the cells in your hair. These are what decide the color and, eventually, the fade to grey.

Most of us start to notice our first grey hairs by the time we hit our thirties. A general rule to go by is that by the age of 50, half of the population will have lost the color in 50 percent of their hair.

But why does it happen? Firstly, we need to understand how hair gets its color.

Your hair is made up of cells called melanocytes (黑色素细胞) which produce pigments (色素) as they grow into the hair fiber. There are two different types of melanins: eumelanins and pheomelanins. The former produces black and brown pigments, while the latter produces red and yellow pigments. The exact amount of these pigments decide whether a person has black, brown, blonde or red hair.

As we age, the ability of the melanocytes to produce more pigments weakens. That's because our hair grows in different periods.

The growing period lasts between three and five years, after which our follicles (毛囊) turn off for about three months to rest and get ready to grow more hairs. This goes round and round and, after a time, our bodies aren't as good at producing new hairs.

Scientists are continuing to try and find ways to prevent greying hair. A team of scientists in France is working to try and stop the melanocytes from being damaged at the end of each hair cycle. They are trying to use a special enzyme () to protect the cells from damage. If successful, it could lead the way for new products that keep our hair full of color for years to come.

1What does the phrase 'an old wives' tale' in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A.A wrong beliefB.A useful talk

C.A scientific ruleD.A helpful experience

2What do we know about red hair?

A.It doesn’t turn grey as people get older.

B.It contains more pheomelanins than eumelanins.

C.The amount of pigments in it doesn't change over time.

D.People with red hair have weaker ability to produce pigments.

3What do the French scientists aim to do?

A.To repair damaged hair follicles.

B.To protect hair cells against damage.

C.To shorten the hair cycle to protect the hair.

D.To study the relationship between health and hair color.

4What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.Grey Hair: a Symbol of Huge Pressure.

B.Grey Hair: a Symbol of Declining Health.

C.Cells: the Cause of New Hair Growth.

D.Cells:the Cause of Color Change of Hair.
