The sun gives energy and the earth receives the sun’s energy. The way the earth interacts with the sun’s energy can be displayed in a picture called the earth’s energy budget（预算）. It displays the sun’s energy that reaches us and how much of that energy is taken in and how much is thrown back by the earth and its air. Once the energy reaches the earth, some of it is taken by land and oceans. The amount of energy that is taken in influences the temperatures. The energy that is not taken in is thrown back to space.
Generally, the amount of energy coming in is equal to the amount of energy going out. So, we say the earth’s energy budget is balanced. If more energy was coming in than was going out, the earth’s temperature would increase. On the other hand, if too much energy is thrown back, and not taken in, we would see the earth’s temperature dropping.
Of all of the sun’s energy that hits the earth, about 67% is taken in by the land, oceans, air and clouds and about 33% is thrown back into space. 
1.The picture above shows us how ________ hits the earth.

After shaking the east coast of Honshu, Japan on March 11, the earthquake has caused more than 10, 000 deaths and 17, 000 people missing. In downtown of Tokyo, buildings shook and frightened citizen blocked out all the streets and roads. The tsunami（飓风）afterwards, which caused more deaths and injury, made Japanese people unable to cheer up. “Now that our neighbors are in trouble,” the Foreign Ministry spokesman said, “we are in our turn to give a hand. Our rescue team has already got there in time to help.” The terrible earthquake also caused a big fire breaking out at the Fukushima nuclear power plant（福岛核电站）, leading to a radiation leaking（泄漏）.
50 nuclear workers, facing radiation and fire, became the only people remaining at the Fukushima nuclear power plant on Tuesday — and perhaps Japan’s last chance of preventing a broader nuclear danger. They have volunteered to put seawater on dangerous nuclear fuel（核燃料）to cool it down, to prevent thousands of tons of radioactive dust high into the air. Some scientists suggest that the leaking is harmful to human being and may influence human body through rain or snow from the sky in the future.

With the increasing numbers of smart phones and Chinese Internet users, micro blogging, known as Weibo in Chinese, has become more and more popular. Popular websites have created their own Weibo sites, which allow users to post a message of up to 140 words, along with pictures and videos（视频）.

When we are in a new place, maps help us find our way easily. However, different types of maps have different uses.
Tourist maps, for example, have signs to show places of interest in an area. When tourists read these maps, it’s easy for them to find where to go and what to see in a place.
Road maps show large areas so that people can plan long journeys. Different types of roads are given different numbers. For example, if you want to go to the zoo, you just follow one number of the road and keep looking at the road signs.
Distribution（分布）maps use colors or signs to show facts about an area. For example, how many people live in an area, how cold and hot some places are, or whether a place is short of water.
Railway maps, use straight lines to show everything. This is easy for people to read. Trains are fast. People don’t have to think about small places they go past. They just need to know the two ends of their trips.
