Passage 1
Read the passage carefully and choose
the best parts to fill in the blanks
What
exactly is a tornado? The general picture is familiar enough. The phenomenon
usually occurs on a hot, sticky day with south wind and an ominous sky. From
the base of a thunderhead, a funnel-shaped cloud extends a violently twisting
spout toward the Earth. As it sucks in matter in its path, the twister may turn
black, brown or even white. The moving cloud shows an almost continuous display
of sheet lightning . It lurches along in a meandering path, usually northeast
ward, at 25 to 40 miles per hour. Sometimes it picks up its finger from the earth
for a short distance and then plants it down again. The funnel is very slender;
its wake of violence averages about 400 yards wide. As the tornado approaches,
it is heralded by a roar as a hundreds of jet planes or thousands of railroad
cars. Its path is a path of total destruction. Buildings explode as they are
sucked in by the tornado’s low-pressure vortex ( where the pressure drop is as
much as 10 percent ) and by its powerful whirling winds ( estimated at up to
500 miles per hour ). The tornado’s lifetime is as brief as it is violent.
Within a few tens of miles ( average about 16 miles), it spends its force and
suddenly disappears.

Passage 2:Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer.
– men or women? Most people believe that women talk more. However, linguist
Deborah Tannen, who has studied the communication style of men and women , says
that this is a stereotype . According to Tannen, women are more verbal – talk
more – in private situations , where they use conversation as the “glue”
to hold relationships together. But, she says, men talk more in public
situations, where they use conversation to exchange information and gain
status. Tannen points out that we can see these differences even in children.
Little girls often play with one “best friend”, their play includes a lot of
conversation. Little boys often play games in groups; their play usually
involves more doing than talking. In school, girls are often better at verbal
skills, boys are often better at mathematics.
A recent study at Emory University helps to shed light on the roots of this difference. Researchers studied conversation between children age 3-6 and their parents. They found evidence that parents talk very differently to their son than they do to their
daughters. The startling conclusion was that parents use more language with
their girls . Specifically, when parents talk with their daughters , they use
more descriptive language and more details. There is also far more talk about
emotions, especially sadness, with daughters than with sons.

sons
B.Researchers have studied the conversations of children ad their parents.
C. Parents do not talk much about sadness with their sons.
D. Study at Emory University can help to explain the differences between communication styles of boys and girls.
