Are you fond of tomatoes? Bunol, a town in Spain, held its yearly tomato festival on the last Wednesday of August. Thousands and thousands of people made their way from all corners of the world to fight in it, the world’s biggest food fight. Tons of fully-grown tomatoes were thrown in the streets.
No one knows exactly how this event started. Maybe it came from a local food fight between friends, or a joke that was played on a bad musician.
On Wednesday, at 11am, the fight began. A cannon(
大炮
) shot was fired to start the fight. At first, people fought one another, but slowly they began to fight in groups. After exactly one hour, the fight ended when the cannon shot was fired once more. At this point, no more tomatoes could be thrown.
Those who attend this event are encouraged to wear protective glasses. And they must press the tomatoes before throwing so that they won’t hurt others. Another rule is that no one is allowed to take anything — such as a glass bottle — into the fight. Although it is forbidden to tear(
扯破
) another person’s clothing, the crowd seems to tear the shirt of any clothed person, whether they are men or women.
Fire trucks are used to clean the streets after the fight with water provided from a Roman channel (
海峽
). The government seems more concerned with cleaning up the town than the visitors, and people go to the Bunol River for a wash.

| B.Only people from Spain can take part in it.

With fears of a possible nuclear
meltdown(核反應(yīng)堆堆芯的熔毀) in Japan building up, evidence has come to light that the nation
received warnings over the stability of its power plants from an international
watchdog more than two years ago.
As the Telegraph
is reporting, an official from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
said in December 2008 that safety rules were out of date, and strong
earthquakes would cause a “serious problem” for the power stations.
A U.S. embassy document,
by quoting(引用)an unnamed expert, states: “He (the IAEA official) explained that safety guides for earthquakes
have only been updated three times in the last 35 years and that the IAEA is
now re-examining them. Also, the presenter noted recent earthquakes in some cases
have gone beyond the design basis for some nuclear plants, and that this is a
serious problem that is now driving earthquake safety work.”
The Telegraph also reports that the government responded to the warnings by
building an emergency response center at the Fukushima Daiichi plant designed
to resist magnitude-7.0 earthquakes. Friday's earthquake, originally named a
magnitude-8.9 shock, has since been upgraded to magnitude-9.0.
Other nuclear experts state
IAEA officials had willingly ignored lessons from the Chernobyl disaster to
protect the nuclear industry's expansion, reports Bloomberg. “After Chernobyl, all the force of the nuclear industry was directed
to hide this event, for not creating damage to their reputation,”Russian nuclear accident specialist Iouli Andreyev tells Reuters,
before noting that radiation from spent fuel rods(棒)stored
close to reactors at Fukushima looked like an example of putting profit before
safety. “The Japanese were very greedy, and they used
every square inch of the space. But when you have a dense(密集的) placing of spent fuel in the
basin, you have a high possibility of fire if the water is removed from the
basin.”

earthquake.

New York Time—A gunman killed
eight people at a mall in Omaha this afternoon and then killed himself, setting
off panic among holiday shoppers, the police said.
“The person who we believe to be
the shooter has died from self-inflicted gunshot wounds,” Sgt. Teresa Negron of the
Omaha Police Department said at televised news. “We
have been able to clear the mall,” she said. “We don’t
believe we have any other shooters.” The police said
that at least five other people had been injured in the shootings.
She did not give the shooter’s
identity. “We
are still conducting the investigation,” Sergeant Negron said, adding that the
city’s mayor, who was out of town, was on his way back to Omaha.
She said the police
received a 911 call from someone inside the Westroads Mall on the west side of
Omaha, and shots could be heard in the background. The first police officers arrived at the
mall six minutes after the first call, she said, but by then the shootings were
over.
It is reported that the
gunman left a suicide note that was found at his home by relatives. A law enforcement
official who spoke on condition of anonymity (匿名) said
the note indicated that the gunman wanted to “go out in style.”
The shootings broke the usually
banal routine of holiday shopping. The gunman was said by some witnesses to have fired about 20 shots
into a crowd. Some customers and workers ran screaming
from the mall, while others dived into dressing rooms to hide from the shooter.
Shoppers and store workers were
trapped inside the mall, which has roughly 135 stores. Others streamed out of
mall exits with their hands raised. President Bush was
in Omaha this morning to deliver a speech, but he had left the city by the time
the shootings took place.

2. What do the underlined words “go out in style” probably mean?

B. walk in the mall with everybody focused on
C. go to a socially event by fashionable means
D. stop his life in a impressive way
3. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Nobody knows why the
shooter did so and nothing was found at his home.
B. The city’s mayor happened
not to be in the city when the shooting took place.
C. Police arrived at the
mall before the shootings were over and rescued customers.
D. The official who showed
what the note mean have no request of his own identity.
4. We can infer from the passage that ______.
A. There is only one shooter in this event.
B. The shooting created fears among the
customers.
C. An important holiday is coming soon.
