A powerful earthquake struck the northeastern coast of Japan at two forty-six p.m. local time on March eleventh.2011. Japan's Meteorological Agency released its first tsunami（海啸） warnings just three minutes later. The country has one of the best earthquake early warning systems in the world. There are more than four thousand Seismic Intensity Meters in place throughout Japan to measure earthquake activity. These meters provide information within two minutes of an earthquake happening. Information about the strength and the center of the earthquake can be learned within three minutes. There are also concrete(混凝土) sea walls around much of the Japanese coastline. But these measures proved no match for the powerful earthquake and tsunami. Costas Synolakis ，a tsunami expert at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles said，"Japan is one of those most well-prepared countries on earth in terms of tsunami warning. They had a warning. I think what went wrong is that they had not expected the size of this event." He says there are two reasons for this. Japan has not had any event anywhere near as big as this one in the last one hundred fifty years. And scientists had not expected such a large earthquake happening off the coast of Japan. The nine point zero magnitude earthquake was the fourth most powerful earthquake ever recorded worldwide. It was also the worst earthquake ever to hit Japan. The tsunami waves that followed were reported to have reached as high as thirteen meters in some areas. Costas Synolakis says Japan's concrete sea walls were not built to handle such high waves. Experts say early warning systems will continue to be limited by these facts until earthquakes and tsunamis can be predicted 1.Where can this passage probably be adapted from? A．A magazine on science B．A fairy Tale C．A scientific fantasy book D．A newspaper 2.Which of the following statements NOT true ? A. A terrible earthquake hit the northeastern coast of Japan B. It was also the worst earthquake in Japan C. The 9.0 earthquake was the fourth most powerful earthquake ever recorded in Japan D. Japan's concrete sea walls was unable to handle such high waves. 3.According to Costas Synolakis, why did Japan suffer such a loss? A. The country has never experienced any event as big as this one over the past 150 years B. Japan has the best earthquake early warning systems in the world. C. There are not concrete sea walls around all of the Japanese coastline D. The government didn’t announce its first tsunami warnings three minutes earlier.

Ever since news of widespread food recalls caused by a carcinogenic dye broke, there has been confusion（混淆） over possible links to the country of the same name, but Sudan officials say there is no connection whatever． Sudan 1 is a red industrial dye（颜料） that has been found in some chilli powder, but was banned in food products across the European Union (EU) in July 2003． Since the ban was put in place, EU officials have been trying to remove some food products from the shelves．So far 580 products have been recalled． Last week Sudan’s Embassy in the United Kingdom asked the Food Standards Agency (FSA) for clarification(澄清) of the origin of the dye’s name． Omaima Mahmoud Al Sharief, a press official at Sudan’s Embassy in China, explained the purpose of the inquiry was to clear up any misunderstanding over links between the country and the poisonous dye． "We want to keep an eye on every detail and avoid any misunderstanding there," she said．"Our embassy to Britain asked them how the dye got that name and whether the dye had something to do with our country．But they told us there was no relationship．" The FSA, an independent food security watchdog in Britain, received a letter from the Sudanese embassy last week． "They asked us why the dye is named Sudan, however, we also do not know how it got the name," she said．"People found the dye in 1883 and gave it the name．Nobody knows the reason, and we cannot give any explanation before we find out．" Sudan dyes, which include Sudan 1 to 4, are red dyesused for colouring oils, waxes, petrol, and shoe and floor polishes．They are classified as carcinogens by the International Agency for Research on Cancer． 1.What does the underlined word “carcinogenic” mean in paragraph one?

In the 60s, people asked about your astrological (about star) sign. In the 90s, they want to know your website. 1 Your website is an electronic meeting place for your family, friends and potentially, millions of people around the world. Best of all, you may not have to spend a cent. The web is filled with all kinds of free services and all it takes is some time and creativity. 2 Like the table of contents of a book or magazine, the home page is the front door. Your site can have one or more pages, depending on how you design it. While web pages vary greatly in their design and content, most use a traditional magazine layout（版面设计）.At the top of the page is a banner(横幅). Next comes a greeting and a short description of the site. Pictures, text, and links to other websites follow. 3 Think about whom the site is for and what you want to say. Next, gather up the material that you want to put on the site. While there are no rules you have to follow, there are a few things to keep in mind: 4 If you are too much at the beginning, you may never get the site off the ground. You can always add to your site. Less is better. Most people don’t like to read a lot of long text online. 5 Smaller is better. Since it can take a long time to download large image files, keep the file sizes small. Have the rights. Don’t put any material on your site unless you are sure you can do it legally. Always remember to get the permission from the writer first. Now it’s time to roll up your sleeves and start building A．Start simply. B．Break it into small pieces. C．Draw a rough layout on a sheet of paper. D．Many websites are considered very interesting. E．Before you start building your site, do some planning. F．Think of your home page as the starting point of your website. G．These days, having a web address is almost as important as a street address.
