Maybe you know floods, droughts, earthquakes, sandstorms and so on. But have you ever heard of typhoons?
Typhoons are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.
How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then, cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles, and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 meters a second, a typhoon begins.
A typhoon has two parts. One is called the "eye". In the eye, the wind does not move so fast. The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. This is where the strongest wind and hardest rains are.
Typhoons are very dangerous. In 2004, Typhoon Yunna killed 164 people in Zhejiang, and 24 people were missing. In May 2006, Typhoon Pearl hit Guangdong and Fujian, and thousands of houses were damaged.
What to do when a typhoon hits:
·Stay inside, close all the windows and stay away from them.
·Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes!
·Listen to the radio or TV for important information.
·If you're told to go to a safer place, do so right away.

When you read an article you will understand and remember it better if you can work out how the writer has put the ideas together.Sometimes a writer puts ideas together by asking questions and then answering them.For example,if the article is about groundhogs(土撥鼠),the set of questions in the writer’s head might be:
What does a groundhog look like?
Where do groundhogs live?
What do they eat?…
In the article,the author might answer those questions.
Sometimes an author writes out her questions in the article.These questions give you signals.They tell you what the author is going to write next.Often an author has a question in her head but she doesn’t write it out for you.You have to work out her question for yourself.Here’s a sample reading for you to practice this method.
Earthworms
Do you know how many kinds of earthworms there are?There are about 1800 kinds in the world! They can be brown,purple,green.They can be as small as 3 cm long and as large as 3 m long.
The best time to see earthworms is at night,especially a cool,damp night.That’s when they come up from their burrows(地洞)to hunt for food.Earthworms don’t like to be in the sun.That’s because they breathe through their skin,and they can’t breathe if their skin gets too dry.Earthworms must come out of the earth if it rains a lot,because they can't breathe in their flooded burrows.What a dangerous life!
Earthworms don't have eyes,so how can they tell when it's dark? They have special places on their skin that are sensitive to light.These spots tell whether it’s light or dark.If you shine a flashlight on an earthworm at night,it will quickly disappear into the ground.
Earthworms don't have ears either,but they can hear by feeling movements in the earth.If you want to hear like an earthworm,lie on the ground with your fingers in your ears.Then have a friend stamp his or her feet near you.This is how earthworms feel birds and people walking,and moles digging,near them.
Earthworms are useful.Farmers and gardeners like having lots of earthworms in their land because the worms help to make better soil when they dig.That digging keeps the soil loose and airy(通風(fēng)的).In one year earthworms can pile up as much as 23,000 kg of castings in an area about the size of a football field.
小題1:What’s the purpose of reading Earthworms?
A.To show the special life facts of earthworms.
B.To explain the differences from the groundhogs.
C.To put the writer’s idea into real use.
D.To make the readers think more clearly.
小題2:Which question CANNOT be answered in the passage?
A.How do earthworms help with gardeners?
B.What life are earthworms living with?
C.When may people observe earthworms?
D.Why can human listen like earthworms?
小題3:How can you understand Earthworms better according to this passage?
A.Read, ask and answer questions in your own head while reading.
B.Read to work out all the questions in the writer’s head while reading.
C.Read and check all the things that are not clear to you again and again.
D.Read for general ideas and discuss or compare with other similar topics.
小題4:What’s the best title for the passage?
A.One way to help with understanding
B.One way to practice with a new idea
C.One way to learn to be a wise writer
D.One way to be clearer about worms

Peter is a sixth-grader at Woodland Primary School. He is only 12 years old but has been smoking for three years. John, 15, is a Junior 2 student at Woodland Secondary School. He began smoking four years ago. “Smoking is part of my life,” John said. Peter and John are not those boys’ real names. But their problem, smoking, is a very real problem. In many countries, smoking is becoming a bigger problem for young people. Most smokers start in their teens or earlier.
A study of 8,000 London students shows that smoking is a problem for many British kids. More than 21% of middle school students and 6 % of primary school pupils said they smoked. “If young people start smoking early, it will be very hard for them to give up later on,” said a professor.
Every year, about four million people die because of smoking. And if people keep smoking,  that number will go up to about ten million a year by 2030, the World Health Organization (WHO) says. So we have to learn and tell others about the dangers of smoking.
小題1:The sentence “Smoking is part of my life” probably means “__________”
A.I don’t smoke very often.
B.Smoking is very important to me.
C.I don’t smoke at all.
D.I’m going to give up smoking.
小題2:What will probably happen if a person starts smoking early?
A.He will surely die early.
B.He cannot stop smoking.
C.It will be difficult for him to give up smoking.
D.He will become lazy soon.
小題3:The study in the passage shows that __________.
A.smoking is a serious problem among British students
B.there are more and more smokers in England
C.some student smokers are having fun smoking
D.most of smokers are young students
小題4:The main idea of this passage is that__________.
A.smoking is becoming a bigger problem for young people
B.more and more people die because of smoking every year
C.WHO asks young people to give up smoking
D.we needn’t worry about the student smokers
小題5:As middle school students, what should we do from now on?
