The Cold Places
The Arctic is a polar region. It surrounds the North Pole.
Like Antarctica, the Arctic is a land of ice and snow. Antarctica holds the record for a low temperature reading ----- 125 Fahrenheit below zero. Readings of 85 degrees below zero are common in both the Arctic and Antarctica. Winter temperatures average 30 degrees below zero in the Arctic. At the South Pole the winter is about 73 degrees below zero.
One thing alone makes it almost impossible for men to live in Antarctica and in parts of the Arctic. This one thing is the low temperature --- the killing chill of the far North and the polar South.
To survive, men must wear the warmest possible clothing. They must build windproof shelters. They must keep heaters going at all times. Not even for moment can they be unprotected against the below-zero temperature.
Men have a way of providing for themselves. Polar explorers wrap themselves in warm coats and furs. The cold makes life difficult. But the explorers can stay alive.
What about animals? Can they survive? Do we find plants? Do we find life in the Arctic and the Antarctica? Yes, we do. There is life in the oceans. There is life on land.
Antarctica, as we have seen, is a cold place indeed. But this has not always been the case. Expedition scientists have discovered that Antarctica may have been much like our own.
Explores have discovered coal in Antarctica. This leads them to believe that Antarctica at one time was a land of swamps and forests. Heat and moisture must have kept the trees in the forests alive.
1. The lowest temperature that man has ever known was recorded in Antarctica.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
2. Winter temperatures average 85 degrees below zero in Antarctica.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
3. The Arctic and Antarctica are no man's lands because of their notorious coldness.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
4. Polar explorers can stay alive without heaters and windproof shelters.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
5. Despite the hostile environment, both animals and plants can be found in the oceans and on land in polar areas.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
6. As discovered by expedition scientists, Antarctica has not always been so cold as it is today, so has the Arctic.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
7. At one time, the weather in Antarctica was so warm and damp that trees grew there.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

Earthquake
1 Every year earthquakes are responsible for a large number of deaths and a vast amount of destruction in various parts of the world. most of these damaging earthquakes occur either in a narrow belt which surrounds the Pacific Ocean or in a line which extends from Burma to the Alps in Europe. Some of the destruction is directly caused by the quake itself. An example of this is the collapse of buildings as a result of the quake itself. Other damage results from landslides or major fires which are initiated by the quake.
2 These are about a million quakes a year. Fortunately, however, not all of them are destructive. The intensity of an earthquake is measured on the Richter Scale, which goes from 0 upward. The highest scale recorded to date is 8.9. major damage generally occurs from quakes ranging upward from 6.0.
3 The actual cause of the quake itself is the breaking of rocks at or below the earth's surface. This is produced by pressure which scientists believe may be due to a number of reasons, two of which are the expansion and contraction of the earth's crust and continental drift.
4 In order to limit the damage and to prevent some of the suffering resulting from earthquakes, scientists are working on ways to enable accurate prediction. Special instruments are used to help people record, for example, shaking of the earth. Scientists are trying to find methods that will enable them to indicate the exact time, location and size of an earthquake.
5 Certain phenomena have been observed which are believed to be the signs of imminent earthquakes. These include strange behaviors of some animals, the changes in the content of mineral water, etc. The magnetic properties of rocks may also display special pattern before earthquakes happen.
1. paragraph 2__________ A. Earthquakes forecast
2. paragraph 3__________ B. Historical records of earthquakes
3. paragraph 4__________ C. Intensities of earthquakes
4. paragraph 5__________ D. Cause of earthquakes
E. Indications of earthquakes
F. Damaging earthquakes
5. Not all damage during an earthquake is caused ____________.
6. Not all earthquakes are strong enough ___________.
7. Scientists have been working hard to warn people ____________.
8. Earthquakes can be predicted by observing ______________.
A. by the quake itself
B. not be prevented
C. to cause damage of property and loss of lives
D. of a possible earthquake
E. the unusual behaviors of some animals
F. the strong behaviors of human beings

Losing Weight
Girls as young as 1 0 years old are dieting and in danger of developing unhealthy attitudes
about weight，body image and food，a group of Toronto researchers reported Tuesday．
Their study of 2,279 girls aged 10 to 14 showed that while the vast majority had healthy
weights，nearly a third felt they were overweight and were trying to lose pounds．Even at the tender agez of 10，nearly 32 per cent of girls felt“too fat'’and 31 per cent said they were trying to diet．
McVey，a researcher at．the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto，and her colleagues
analyzed data collected in a number of surveys of southern Ontario school girls between 1 993 and 2003，reporting their findings in Tuesday’s issue of the Canadian Medical Association Journal．
Nearly 80 per cent of the girls had a healthy body weight and only 7．2 per cent were
considered overweight using standard weight-to．height ratios．Most researchers suggest the rate of overweight children in this country is several times higher than that figure．
Nearly 30 per cent of the girls reported they Were currently trying to lose weight，though few admitted to dangerous behavior such as self-induced vomiting．
Still，a test that measured attitudes towards eating showed 10．5 per cent of survey
Participants were already at risk of developing an eating disorder．
‘'We’re not talking about kids who’ve been prescribed a diet because they’re above average weight or overweight. We’re talking about children who are within a healthy weight range。And they have taken it upon themselves to diet to lose weight，”McVey said，acknowledging she found the rates disturbing．She said striking a balance between healthy weights and healthy attitudes towards food and body image is a complex task，with no easy solutions．

overweight adj．超重的；过重的
induce vt．引起，导致

Mother knows Best
Once while being prepped‘ for a television interview,1 was chatting with the host about stay—at—home fathers．I made the point that one reason we’re seeing more stay．at．home dads may be that it’s no longer a given that a man makes more money than his wife．Many families now take earning power into account when deciding which parent will stay home．
At that point，one of the male crew members commented，almost to himself but loud enough for my benefit，“It should be the better parent who stays home．”A 10t of guys say things like that．Usually it’s code for。，”My wife(read：any woman)is the better parent．”
1 was a stay-at-home father for eight years。so his declaration made me bristle．It implied mat our family’s choice could only have been correct if was a“better”parent than my wife．
I think men shoot themselves in the foot with this kind of thinking4．I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife was the“better”parent：She had spent more time with Ry，could read him better and calm him more quickly．And given a choice，he’d have picked her over me。．But as she was the more employable one．my wife went out to work and looked after our son．
Know what? I caught up．Because of the increased time I spent with him，I soon knew Ry well，understood what he needed and could 100k after him more or less as well as my wife could．Actually, the experience helped me unlock one of the world’s great secrets。：Women are good at looking after children because they do it．It’s not because。of any innate female aptitude or a mother’s instinct--which I think is mostly learned anyway．It’s because they put in the time and attention required to become good at the job．
Women obviously get a biological head start from giving birth and nursing，but over the long term experience is more important．Ⅵmen I got the experience myself,1 was good．too．As good? I don’t know．Who cares? Children are not made of glass．Other people are capable of looking after them besides Morn．
词汇：
host n．(电视)主持人
given n．假定的事实，已知的情况

Goal of American Education
Education is all enormous and expensive part of American life. Its size is matched by its variety.
Differences in American schools compared with those found in the majority of other
countries lie in the fact that education here has long been intended for everyone—not just
for a privileged elite. Schools ale expected to meet the needs of every child, regardless
of ability,and also the needs of society itself．This means that public schools offer more
than academic subjects．It surprises many people when t11ey come here to find high schools
offering such courses as typing，sewing，radio repair, computer programming or driver training，along with traditional academic subjects such as mathematics，history, and languages．Students choose their curricula depending on their interests，future goals，and level of ability．The underlying goal of American education is to develop every child to the utmost of his or her own possibilities，and to give each one a sense of civic and community consciousness。．
Schools have traditionally played an important role in creating national unity and
“Americanizing”the millions of immigrants who have poured into this country from many
different backgrounds and origins. Schools still play a large role in the community, especially in the small towns．
The approach to teaching may seem unfamiliar to many, not only because it is informal，
but also because there is not much emphasis on learning facts．Instead，Americans try to
teach their children toⅡ1ink for themselves and to develop their own intellectual and
creative abilities．Students spend much time，learning how to use resource materials libraries, statistics and computers．Americans believe that if children are taught to reason well and to research well, they will be able to find whatever facts they need throughout the rest of their lives．Knowing how to solve problems is considered more important than the
accumulation of facts．
This is America’s answer to the searching question that thoughtful parents all over the world are asking themselves in the fast-moving time：“How Can one prepare today’s child for a tomorrow that one can neither predict nor understand?”
词汇：
privileged adj．享有特权的
elite n．精英，精华
curricula n．课程
underlying adj．潜在的
reason v．推理
