     Minutes later, the storm came. However, because of the warning of the radio and the quick work of the principal, no one was hurt.
“The radio really did work very well.              （我们对它的工作感到很高兴），”William Tomic said. “The parents were as well.”
     The U.S. government hopes there will be more such success stories. It plans to give this kind of radios to all 97,000 public schools in the country.
       Every year, more than 10,000 big thunderstorms, 2,500 floods, 1,000 tornadoes（龙卷风）and some hurricanes（飓风）take place in the U.S., so the waming radios are very useful.They not only give people warnings about bad weather,but also give warnings about other dangerous things.

（2）、Why was no one hurt in the school in the storm?

（3）、请根据短文中所给汉语完成句子。

（4）、请把短文中划线的句子译成汉语。

（5）、请给短文拟一个恰当的英文标题。

One day, a man found the cocoon (茧) of a butterfly and he brought it home.
A few days later, the man saw a small hole in the cocoon. He sat and watched for several hours as a butterfly struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it stopped.
So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a knife and cut a bigger hole in the cocoon. The butterfly came out of the cocoon but it had a weak body and small, thin wings. The butterfly didn't start to fly.
In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬行) around with a weak body and thin wings. It was never able to fly.The man acted with kindness but he didn't understand that he had done something wrong. When a butterfly crawls out of the cocoon, it must struggle. The hard work of getting out of the cocoon forces the fluid(液体) from the butterfly's body into wings. It helps the butterfly be ready to fly. If the butterfly never has to force itself out of the cocoon, its wings never get the fluid and it can never fly.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our lives. If we lived our lives without any problems, we would never learn or grow. We would not be as strong as we could have been and we would never fly.
So, the next time you are faced with a challenge or a problem, remember the butterfly.Struggle a little – then fly!

I live in Taipa, a community (社区) in Macau (澳门). My house in Taipa is very good. There are two large stores, a bank and a post office in the community. And there are a lot of great restaurants. The Sichuan restaurant is my favourite. I can get a bowl (碗) of noodles with chicken for about ten yuan in that restaurant. There is a park with a small river, gardens and trees near my house. It's very beautiful. I go running in the park every morning.

I wasn't in Macau in 2012. I was in Hong Kong at that time. My apartment (公寓) in Hong Kong was quite small. The apartment was on a busy street. There were many cars on the street. And there was no supermarket near my home. And the people there were very busy. I don't like to live in that place.

I am happy with my new house.
