26、Now satellites are helping to forecast (预报) the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere (大气), because this is where the weather forms (形成). They send these pictures to the weather stations. From the pictures, meteorologists (气象学家) can often say how the weather will change.

Today, nearly more than one hundred weather stations in over ninety countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.

So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, they could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for two weeks. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for fifteen days or more ahead (提前).

【1】Satellites travel ________.

A．in space

B．in the atmosphere

C．above the ground

D．above space

【2】Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because ________.

A．clouds form there

B．the weather forms there

C．the weather satellites can do it easily

D．the pictures can forecast the weather

【3】Meteorologists forecast the weather ________.

A．during they study satellite pictures

B．before they received satellite pictures

C．when they have received satellite pictures

D．after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier ones

【4】Maybe we’ll soon be able to forecast the weather for ________.

A．five days

B．one week

C．two weeks

D．fifteen days or even longer

【5】The main (主要的) idea of this passage is that satellites are now used in ________.

A．weather forecasting

B．taking pictures of the atmosphere

C．doing other work in many ways

D．receiving pictures of the atmosphere

27、Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.

Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.

Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had older brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.

You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure. In Japan, when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame（责备）themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.

For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don’t forget---if you are shy, you are not the only one.

【1】What is the passage mainly about?

A. Happiness.   B. Shyness.

C. Kindness. D. Loneliness.

【2】What does the underlined word “genetic” in paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. Passed down from parents.

B. Learned from friends

C. Taught by teachers.

D. Made up by brothers.

【3】Which one is not the reason of shyness according to the scientists’ ideas?

A. Genetics.   B. Family size

C. Failure D. Birthplace.

【4】What can you do if you want to get over your shyness?

A. Try to know why you are shy.

B. Talk to your parents and blame them.

C. Try to learn some social skills.

D. Try new things and practice conversation.

28、Everyone wants to be healthy. But not everyone can live a healthy life. 【1】 should we do if we want to keep healthy? Here we have some advice for you. To be healthy, first we must have a healthy lifestyle. And 【2】 also necessary to get rid of（摆脱）some bad habits. Now, let’s see some bad habits in our daily life in order to help us turn our unhealthy habits into 【3】 ones.

1Eating when hungry

Many people do not eat on time or do not eat when not hungry. They do that because they are “not hungry”. In 【4】, food only stays in the stomach for 4-5 hours, so when we are hungry, our stomachs are already empty. At this time, gastric juices(胃液)will begin “self-digestion” (自我消化). That is bad for our health.
