Schools   44  and farms were destroyed. We ran out of food and clean water. In some places the water was higher than the buildings. I felt like we lived in a(n)  45 _ world.
Because of the flood, lots of  46  broke out. Because of the dead animals, some people  47  . The soil and other things made the water become very, very  48 _. That was in summer time, so though it was raining, the  49  was still high. The hot weather and really dirty water 50  the air very bad. Hospitals didn't have enough rooms for  51  .
When the flood was over, I looked around my city. The word “ 52 ” can describe the situation. Everything was destroyed and lots of people were sick, but we were very  53  .1 think.
We had to 54  our city, take care of the sick people, and start our schools again. I just 55 that one day, people can stop the natural disasters whenever they happen. After all, people are very clever.

Habit is any action that we have performed so often that it becomes something that we do almost without thinking. Some of them are thought to be bad habits. People spend countless hours and dollars each year trying to get rid of these bad habits but often fail. Why? Change is hard work and there is no shortcut to achieve it. However, there is still some advice for you to follow.
First, look at why you do it. In other words, what’s the result of doing this thing? If your bad habit is shouting at people when you are unhappy or under pressure, what do you get from it? It may make you feel a little better for the moment. Or maybe you have a bad habit of leaving your homework undone. The result could be that you get more time to spend on the Internet!
Next, take a look on the other hand. What are you losing because of your habit? Shouting at other people is a bad habit because it makes people around you feel bad and unhappy. Leaving your homework undone is a bad habit because you may be punished by your teacher. Having more Internet time means that you are losing the chance to learn the things that you need to learn. When you think that way, you’ll find that it’s not wise to keep your bad habit! Now it is time to make a decision. What will you choose?

In northern China during spring, big sandstorm often make trouble for people. Sandstorms usually happen in spring. They have happened in more than 10 provinces in northern China this year. People in southern China don’t have to worry about this kind of bad weather. Most of the sand comes from the north of China. In northern China, lots of places have few trees and don’t get much rain.

Shopping is not as simple as you may think! Much has to be done for the producers before putting the products on the shelf.
Color, for example, changes a lot according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packed in greens, yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colors.
When some kind of medicine was brought out recently, researchers found that the color of the package(包裝) caused the shoppers to lose interest because they made the product look ineffective(無效的). At last, it came on the market in dark blue and white—blue because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.
The size of a package can also attract(吸引) a shopper, although quite often a bottle doesn’t hold as much as it appears to.
It is said that the better-known companies spend about 40 percent of the cost of the product itself on packaging!
The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product. The head of Pears Soap, who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to sell their goods, came to the conclusion: “Any fool can make soap, but it takes a talent to sell it.”
小題1: Health foods are usually packed in colors Except ________.

小題2:Why did the shoppers lose interest in the medicine?
A．Because of the size of the product.B．Because of the color of the product.

Some people like to get up late, but some do not. In fact, it is really good for us to get up early every day. Maybe those who don't like getting up early will not believe this, but it is true.
Scientists made a survey in about one thousand people, and then they found that early rising people had less disease than late rising people, and early rising people also looked healthier than late rising people, and so on.
So we may know early rising is helpful in more than one way. First, it helps to keep us healthy. We all need fresh air. But air is never as fresh as early in the morning. Besides, it is useful to do morning exercises.
Secondly, early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easier to understand what we learn.
Thirdly, early rising can give us a plan of our work for the day. We cannot work well without a good plan.
Fourthly, early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work^ such as to wash our hands and faces and eat our breakfast.
Late risers may find it difficult to form the habit of early rising. They have to make an effort (努力）to do so. As the English proverb says, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise?”
Judge the following sentences true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.
小題1:People don't always agree on whether to e»et up early.
小題2:   In the passage the writer gives four reasons for early rising.
小題3:   Early rising makes people happier according to the passage.
小題4:Early risers don't look as healthy as late risers.
小題5:The writer encourages people not to sleep late.
