Nobody can control the weather. But if we read correctly the 21 around us we can 22 what the more changes in the weather will be. The way of telling what the weather will be like the following day is 23 weather forecasting. For many centuries and in all countries people have 24 the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Sometimes distant objects 25 hills and tall trees seem to be very clear 26 near. This is a sign of much water vapor in the 27 and therefore rain will probably come. Rings round the sun are a sign of coming 28 . Many people feel in their 29 the coming of wet weather. Their joints ache. Some birds fly 30 as fine weather is coming but they fly near the ground if 31 or stormy weather is 32 the way. It is probably because of the insects which they are hunting 33 they fly 34 . If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign 35 the weather will become clear and fine. Such 36 always come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fair weather will 37 . If a fog appears in the morning just about sunrise, then the day will be warm. Instead, 38 a fog appears in the evening, the next day will bring wet weather. If the sunset is mostly red in 39 , then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come. Most of the 40 sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.

It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War 3. She’ll talk about my lack of bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don’t want to do any job related to science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major(主修) in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack.

“Why can’t you be like my co-worker’s son?” she bemoans all the time. Her coworker’s son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don’t know what to answer except that I simply can’t be like Mr. Perfect as I’ve called the unnamed co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him. I am the type of the person who loved to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of a fame or salary.

I understand why my mother is worried about my future major. I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 am and usually comes home around 5 pm or even 6pm. However, I want her to know that by becoming a doctor, it doesn’t mean I’ll be successful. I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.

1.Which of the following topics do the writer and his mother often talk about?

A.the writer’s studies

B.wars around the world

C.dinner plans

D.the writer’s future job

2.We can infer from Paragraph 1 that the writer’s mother _____.

A.doesn’t think the writer should be a doctor

B.doesn’t want the writer to major in English

C.gets along very well with the writer

D.doesn’t think working in the scientific field is a good idea

3.The underlined word “bemoans” in Paragraph 2 most probably means “________”.

A.disagrees

B.shouts

C.smiles

D.complains

4.Which of the following statements is probably TRUE about the writer?

A.He wants to be like his mother’s co-worker’s son.

B.He wants to find a job in his community in the future.

C.He wants to do something he really likes in the future.

D.He doesn’t think his mother’s co-worker’s son is perfect.

5.We can know from the last paragraph that ____.

A.the writer’s mother works very hard for the family

B.the writer doesn’t know what his future will be like

C.the writer doesn’t think being a doctor is a good job

D.the writer sometimes thinks his mother’s advice is very good
