Lightning(闪电)is shocking, and it happens all over the world! Scientists think that there are more than three million lightning strikes(袭击)every day in the world-that’s thirty strikes every second.

Lightning can also be very dangerous. Every year, lightning kills people because it can start big fires or because it reaches temperatures up to 28,000 degrees centigrade. American Roy Sullivan, who worked in a park, holds the record for surviving the most lightning strikes. Between 1942 and 1983, he was hit seven times!

So, why does lightning strike? Lightning strikes happen when ice and water in clouds rub(摩擦)together, and cause atmospheric(大气层的)changes. When this happens, it creates a static charge(静电电荷). Lightning can strike inside the cloud, between two clouds and between a cloud and Earth. It’s the last type of strike that is the most dangerous for humans. About 1,000 people get struck by lightning every year in the United States, and about 100 of them die as a result.

Lightning is certainly not something to toy with. When lightning strikes, it’s best to stay inside a large building. To stay safe, do not stand under trees, on hills or near water. Trees attract lightning. Also, do not lie down on the ground, otherwise the electricity may go through you and cause a heart disease.

1.Lightning strikes ________.

A. happen three billion times each day

B. will start when there are big fires

C. can reach very high temperatures

D. kill all those who work in a park

2.What does “surviving” in paragraph 2 mean in Chinese?

A.目睹 B.幸存 C.制造 D. 遇难

3.We can infer(推断)from paragraph 3 that ________.

A. lightning strikes are caused whenever ice and water meet

B. lightning between two clouds is the most dangerous for humans

C. lightning strikes create static charge

D. about one tenth of the people struck by lightning die every year in America

4.Which expression means “to toy with” in the last paragraph?

A. to play with B. to take seriously

C. to show off D. to take it easy

5.Where’s the best place to be when lightning strikes?

A. On top of a hill. B. In a swimming pool.

C. In a tree. D. Inside a large building.

The day before the surgery I was off school. And my mom planned the best day of my life, everything I loved at seven and everything that would put a smile on my face. The day began with her waking me up and saying, “Kate, I have a surprise for you. Come and see.” The surprise was a doll I have wanted for the longest time. Throughout the day, she told me everything that I would always make her proud. We had a picnic in the park, and it was so cold that we moved to the car. The day was filled with laughter. For the first time in a long time I could see she was really happy. I would never forget her smile, or the way her eyes shone as if we were the same age. It was the best day of my life, and I will never forget the conversation we shared.

My mother managed to live throughout the surgery. Now when I look back, I realized that the best day of my life could be her last and this could be the last day I would remember with her, the last one we shared. I also understand how unselfish a mother is.
