In Britain the weather never gets too hot or too cold. There is not a great difference between summer and winter. Why is this?
Britain has a warm winter and a cool summer because it is an island country. In winter the sea is warmer than the land. The winds from the sea bring warm air to Britain. In summer the sea is cooler than the land. The winds from the sea bring cool air to Britain.
The winds from the west blow over Britain all the year. They blow from the southwest across the Atlantic Ocean (大西洋). They are wet winds. They bring rain to Britain all the year. The west of Britain is wetter than the east. The winds must blow across the high land in the west. The east of Britain is drier than the west.

Do you get angry when your friends sing loudly while you are trying to work? Or when your best friend does not wait for you after school?
If you do, you need to take control (控制) of your feelings and stop getting angry so easily. Getting angry with people can cause you to lose friends.
Gary Egeberg, an American high school teacher, has written "My Feelings Are Just Like Wild Animals" to help you control your feelings. It tells teens how to stay cool when bad things happen to them.
The book says that getting angry only makes problems worse. It can never make them better. Getting angry is not a natural(天然的) way to act, the book says. It is just a bad habit (习惯), like smoking(抽烟). The book says you can control your anger(生气) easily ---- all you have to do is tell yourself not to be angry.
When a baby falls over, it only cries if people are watching it. Like a baby, you should only get angry if you are sure it is the right thing to do.
The book gives many tips(建议) to help you if you get angry easily. Here are our top three:
1. Keep a record. Every time you get angry write down why you are angry. Look at it later and you will see you get angry too easily.
2. Ask your friends to stop talking to you when you get angry. This will teach you not to be angry.
3. Do something different. When you get angry, walk away from the problem and go somewhere else. Try to laugh!
( )57. You may be get angry ________ in this passage.
A. when your best friends don’t wait for you after school
B. when you hear your bad mark after taking the exam
C. if you don’t control your feelings all the time
D. if you can’t work out the problems in class
( )58. If you often become angry with people, ____________.
A. you won’t have trouble B. you will die much earlier
C. you will lose some friends D. you won’t make friends later on
( )59. _______ tells teens to keep cool when bad things happen to them.
A. An English writer B. An American teacher
C. A book D. A magazine
( )60. Which is the best title(标题) of the passage?
A. How to make more friends. B. How to keep cool when angry.
C. What to write about anger. D. When to stop getting angry.
( )61. Which of the following sentences is right?
A. Getting angry every time is as good a habit as getting up early every morning.
B. Please keep an angry record every time so that you will turn angry easily.
C. You’d better ask your friends to talk with you when you are in anger.
D. You are always telling yourself to stay cool to control your anger if you are getting angry.
C
Last Sunday I saw the worst storm. It came suddenly and went on for more than three hours.
After lunch, I went into my room to have a rest. The air was hot, and all was quiet. The strong wind started blowing into my room suddenly. Pieces of paper on my desk flew high into the air and some flew out of the open window. As I ran out to catch them, big drops of rain began to fall.
When I came back into the house, it was raining harder and harder. I tried very hard to close the window. Then I heard a loud crashing(碰撞的) sound from the back of the house. I ran out of my room to find out what it was- a big tree had fallen down and broken the top of the back room.
( )62. The storm happened ______.
A. in the morning B. in the afternoon

I went hiking to a mountain with my friends last summer. It was a good trip at the beginning but something unexpected happened on the half way. One of my friends suddenly felt a terrible pain in his stomach and he couldn’t move any further. Nobody knew what to do. One girl tried to call her mum with her mobile phone but there was no signal in the mountains. Luckily we brought a tent with us. We put it up and let him rest in it. He took some medicine. Then he drank some water and ate some food. After a while, he felt much better and we walked on. We all enjoyed ourselves on the top of the mountain.
