28、No one can change the weather. Nobody can control the weather. But if we read correctly the signs around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting（天氣預(yù)報(bào)）.

For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. That many people feel their joints（關(guān)節(jié)） hurt is a sign of wet weather. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in colour, then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come.

Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.

1. Which of the following can be used here to replace（取代） the underlined phrase “on the way”?

   A. away                  B. gone                 C. disappearing             D. coming

2. When you see the stars twinkle clearly at night, the weather will be_________.

   A. warm                 B. rainy                 C. clear and fine            D. cold

3. Which of the following signs can tell the weather will probably be rainy?

   A. A rainbow appears in the morning.

   B. Some birds fly high.

   C. The stars twinkle clearly at night.

   D. Fogs appear in the morning just above a river.

25、There are different ways in which people try to deal with the problem of energy．One way is the greater production of common energy sources（能源），such as coal，oil and gas．The trouble with these sources，however，is that they are not renewable．Another way is energy conservation，which means using energy better．Thirdly，renewable energy sources are used even though they are often expensive to develop．One form of these is solar energy（太陽(yáng)能）．

In Japan，there is a wonderful program of Solar City．The city is 80,000 meters northwest of Tokyo and one of Japan's sunniest places，covering about 410,000 square meters．Seventy-five percent of the homes there are covered by solar panels（太陽(yáng)能電池板），which are able to provide more than enough energy for a normal family on sunny days．The government has paid much money to help people to make full use of solar energy．A lot of solar energy companies have also given money to help this program．

People living in Solar City think using solar panels is a good way to save money．However，saving money is not the only reason why people are moving into this city．“We moved here because of the panels．It was something we wanted．”said Mika Hiroshima，a newcomer to Solar City．

The Solar City program of Japan has brought hope to us．While we are making use of solar energy，we need to think about other renewable sources that can be used to help solve the energy problem．

1．The ways to deal with the problem of energy are the greater production of _________ energy sources，energy conservation and the use of _________ energy sources．

20、Does handwriting have a practical use today? Do we really need it? Many educators say yes．

Handwriting is important because research shows that when children are taught how to do it，they are also being taught how to learn and how to express themselves．Students with fluent（流暢的）handwriting produce better homework and get higher grades，a new study by Professor Steve Graham shows．

Handwriting is a basic skill of learning，expert Emily Knapton says．She believes，“When kids have trouble with handwriting，it affects all their subjects．Spelling becomes a problem；maths becomes a problem，too．Both of the subjects will be much easier for these kids to learn if their handwriting is improved．”

Fluency and speed of handwriting are very important．Graham's study has also shown that from kindergarten（幼兒園）through the fourth grade，kids think and write at the same time．If they have to struggle to remember how to spell the words，their ability to express themselves will suffer．Stephen Pevely，a professor of education says，“From the writing speed of primary school students，we can know the quality and quantity of their writing in middle school．”

Predictions of handwriting's end didn't begin with the computer；they date back to the introduction of the Remington typewriter in 1873．But for at least a generation（一代人），handwriting has seemed much less important．Now，supported by new research，educators are trying to bring back its special importance into the classroom．

A．is not necessary                       B．is unimportant

C．has a practical use                       D．is useless

A．much easier        B．much harder      C．great fun          D．a(chǎn) problem

4．The underlined word "suffer" in the passage means “________”．

A．be strongly influenced                        B．be deeply moved

C．be badly affected                         D．be seriously hurt
