It was still miles away, but I heard it. It grew stronger and louder as it g
29、ained speed and got closer. How could that be? I wondered. We were about to grab our bikes to see what it actually was when we stopped. What looked like a flock of birds darkened the sky overhead. When I looked at it closer, I realized it wasnt birds. It was a tornado (龙卷风). The hairs on the back of
30、 my neck stood up as the air turned green and heavy. The sun disappeared. The wind strengthened and roared. I grabbed Chads arm and pulled him toward the house.I tried to open the door, but it was as if an invisible force pushed against me. The door refused to open. When we finally managed to get in
31、side, we found it was as dark as night. Our family had practiced a tornado safety plan many times. But I had never imagined that it would be just Chad and me at home the first time we needed to use it. “Inside the closet!” I yelled. It was small and crowded, but we got in it anyway. Chad began to cr
32、y. “Its going to be all right.” I told him. But I was worried about Mom. I hope shed found a safe place to wait out the storm.The storm continued. I heard a thud on the roof. I felt the whole house shaking. Then it was quiet. I opened the door and we inched our way out of the closet. Rain had got in
33、 through the open window and wet the carpets. A kitchen window had shattered, its screen blown away. I looked at the backyard. The tree was uprooted, and broken branches lay on the ground. “Jason, I cant get service,” Chad said as he held the phone in his hand. We had no electricity, either. I glanc
34、ed at the wall clock. Had it been only 20 minutes since wed first heard the thunder?Then I heard footsteps toward the house.

37、hat twins come packaged as a pair more than 20 years ago in my local supermarket. As I pushed my shopping trolley(手推车)with my ten-month-old twin daughters towards a woman, she said, “Which one is the good one and which one is the bad one?“ I was upset and hurried past. There I caught my breath, smil
38、ed at my two girlswho were busy playing with each otherand wondered how anyone could ask such a question.Since twins are born a “matched set“, they are often seen as symbols(象征)of the good and bad in all of us. Ancient myths and modern movies are full of situations where twins are made to represent
39、that one is good and the other is bad.Unfortunately, most people are more familiar with twin myths than with living, breathing twins. As one mother of adult twin sons put it, “I was amazed at how good both my twins were. From an early age there was so much care between them. - 9 -If I offered one a
40、biscuit, he wouldnt take it until he made sure that his brother was going to get one too. I tried, but I could never get my single-born kids to be as thoughtful about each other.“ She said she protected her boys from twin myths while they were growing up by giving them different names. She never dre
41、ssed them alike and avoided emphasis(强调)on their twinship.While few parents believe the myth of good twin/bad twin, some fall into the trap of comparing their twins personalities and abilities. Of course, there are times when any parent becomes disappointed with one over the other. Wise parents keep
42、 these feelings to themselves. When they speak of differences between their twin children, they translate them into positive points and avoid negative labels(标签). Within the family, parents can control their own behavior. But theres no easy way to protect them from wrong questions and comments from
43、their classmates, teachers, coaches and strangers. The best defense is to show a positive attitude toward twinship and about any difference between your children.59. What is the twin myth mentioned in the text?A. Twins have a lot in common.B. Twins are always best friends.C. Theres a good twin and a
44、 bad twin in every pair.D. There are some slight differences between twins.60.

45、 the twin brothers_.A. have similar tastes in dresses B. love each other very muchC. dislike other family kids D. have similar names62. The author advises parents to _.A. learn more about twin mythsB. avoid comparing their twin children- 10 -C. tell their twin children their shortcomingsD. encourage

The Falcon Heavy is now the most powerful rocket in the world.SpaceX is a private space company. The company was started by a businessman named Elon Musk. He l
47、oaded the Falcon Heavy with his own cherry-red Tesla car. The car was built by another one of his companies. He planned to send the Tesla into an orbit that would take it near Mars.Space travel in the United States used to happen only under NASA. NASA stands for National Aeronautics and Space Agency
48、, which is part of the government. Unlike NASA, SpaceX is not part of the government.Thousands of people came to watch the Falcon Heavys launch(发 射 ). The launch tookplace in Florida. It was the rockets first test. The launch was also the first time an American rocket that was not built by NASA tried to leave orbit.Experts are not sure about the Falcon Heavy. T
