A tornado (龙卷风) is a kind of strong storm with air which moves in a circle quickly. They can move over 200 miles per hour and cause a lot of damage (损坏). As they move across the land, they can easily pick up cars, trucks, and even houses, and then throw them very far. It is important to find a safe place if a tornado gets close.

A safe place could be a basement ( 地下室) or the lowest floor. If you are in a home without a basement, try to find a first-floor bathroom or a small room without windows in the middle of your house. You should curl up (蜷缩) into a ball and cover your head and neck with your hands.

But there are some people who actually want to get close to tornadoes. They are scientists who want to learn more about tornadoes. One of the best ways to do this is to get as close as possible to the tornado. They use special tools to measure (测量) what is happening in and around a tornado.

One special tool is called a tornado probe ( 探测仪). Inside the tornado probe, there are sensors (传感器) to measure wind speed, temperature, pressure, and direction.

Some probes even have cameras, so the scientists can see and understand what it's like to be in a tornado.

To be able to get these measurements, the scientists have to get a tornado probe near or into a tornado. Scientists will try to guess where a tornado will go next. Then they drive to that location and put down the probe. If they do not guess correctly, they pick up their probe and try another place. If they are right, the tornado will go near or even right over the probe. Then they take all of the measurements

from the probe and use them to predict where future tornadoes may form (形成) and travel. And they can give people some warning to keep away from a dangerous tornado.

Sit back and get relaxed!

These days, we easily feel stressed as we get more and more work to do. It's important to know how to solve problems and find ways to relax. 

First, we should try organizing our work from most important to least important as well as most urgent(紧急的) to least urgent. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} As soon as those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent. Then, do things that are less important and less urgent. This makes us know what to do first and not worry about the rest. 

Still, sometimes we feel stressed even after organizing our work. That's okay. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Because exercise helps a lot in forgetting about our problems. It doesn't even have to be a big trip to the gym, although that surely helps. It could be something as small as walking around the neighborhood for 10 to 20 minutes. 

Finally, we can try meditation(冥想). {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Just set aside 10 to 20 minutes with an alarm clock, sit straight, close our eyes, and focus only on breathing. If other thoughts come up, accept that they are there and let them fly away on their own. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

By trying these steps, we will certainly feel peaceful when finishing all of the work. 

A. How can we do that?

B. It is not easy to get work organized. 

C. Try to add some exercise into our weekly plan. 

D. Both our body and mind can get relaxed this way. 

E. If some problems are both important and urgent, do those things first. 

Which way is better for you to get relaxed? Why?( about 20 words) {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

 阅读下面的短文,然后根据短文内容回答问题。

Singapore is considered to be one of the cleanest countries in the world and attracts a large number of tourists every year. The country's reputation (名声) for cleanliness and order is good because of strict expectations(预期) about public action. Now, we' ve put together a list of"dos and don'ts".If in doubt,check out thel aws in more detail //www.gov.sg .

When using the escalator(自动扶梯) in Singapore, you should stand on the left and walk on the right. This allows those who want to walk up to go around you easily. Singapore also provides separate(分流) cycling and walking paths, so you should make sure you walk on the right paths. This keeps everyone a bit safer and prevents overcrowding.

 

 Although Singapore has a large number of new technologies in daily life, many areas still see the cash (现金). So having cash in hand is necessary; for example, some smaller neighborhood shops may prefer customers to pay in cash.

 In Singapore, the first thing you need to do is to get some tap water(自来水). Tho water is carefully tested, so it's safe to drink straight from the tap. Bottled water is widely available but it's expensive, while tap water is more cost-effective.

 Of course, there are some things that you can't do. In Singapore, for example, the sale of chewing gum (口香糖) is not  allowed meaning you cannot even bring gum with you when you enter. To keep public transportation clean, Singapore also has strict rules on behavior while riding.

 Singapore officials(官方) and locals take their rules very seriously, which makes their country clean and enjoyable for  people from around the world.
