Hurricanes (飓风)
1. Did you know that before 1950, hurricanes had no names？ They were simply given numbers. The first names were simply Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, etc. But in 1953, females names were given because of the unpredictability (不可预知) factor of the storms. In 1979, realizing the sexist (性别歧视的) nature of such names, the lists were expanded to include both men and women.
2. Hurricanes and typhoons (台风) are the same things. If they form. in the Atlantic, we call these strong storms hurricanes, from the West Indian word hurricane, meaning "big wind". And if they are Pacific storms, they are called typhoons from the Chinese taifun, meaning "great wind". To be classified as a hurricane, the storm must have maximum winds of at least 75 mph. These storms are big, many hundreds of miles in diameter.
3. Hurricanes get their power from water vapor as it gives out its stored-up energy. All water vapor gives out heat as it condenses (凝结) from a gaseous state to a liquid state over fixed points on the equator (赤道). To make a hurricane, you must have extremely wet, warm air, the kind of air that can only be found in tropical region.
4. Scientists have determined that the heat given out in the process of water condensation can be as high as 95 billion kilowatts per hour. In just one day alone, the storm can produce more energy than many industrialized nations need in an entire year! The problem is that we don't know how to make sure such great energy work for us.
5. Predicting the path of a hurricane is one of the most difficult tasks for forecasters. It moves at a typical speed of 15 mph, but not always. Some storms may race at twice this speed, then suddenly stop and remain in the same location for several days. It can be maddening (发疯的) if you live in a coastal area that may be hit.
The biggest advance in early detection is continuous watch from weather satellites. With these, we an see the storms form. and track them fully, from birth to death. While they can still kill people and destroy property, hurricanes will never surprise any nation again.
A. A Short History of Naming Hurricanes
B. Harnessing the Hurricane Energy
C. Difficulty in Forecasting the Course of a Hurricane
D. Huge Energy Stored in a Hurricane
E. Forecasting a Hurricane Through Satellite Watching
F. Different Names for the Same Things
Paragraph 1______
Nice Name But She's So Deadly
1．More than a million people in the United States were told to leave their homes over the weekend as Hurricane （飓风） Dennis headed to the Gulf coast, after killing at least 15 people in the Caribbean Sea.
2．If you read the news oftenen0ugh, you may notice that all hurricanes are given names. Why is that？ Remember, there can be more than one hurricane operating at one time. Without naming them, we could get confused about which storm we're talking about.
3．For hundreds of years, hurricanes in the Caribbean were named after the particular religious day on which they occurred. One Australian meteoroid）gist （气象学家） began giving women's names to tropical storms at the end of the 19th century. In 1953, the US National Weather Service, which is responsible for tracking hurricanes and issuing warnings, began using female names for storms. By 1979, both women and men's names were being used. One name for each letter of the alphabet （字母表） is selected,except for Q, U and Z.
4．So who decides which names are used each year？ The World Meteorological Organization uses six lists in rotation, so each list is reused every six years.
5．Here's a list of the 2005 Atlantic hurricanes, according to the US National Hurricane Centre: Arlene,Bret,Cindy,Dennis, Emily, Franklin, Gert, Harvey, Irene, Jose, Katrina,Lee, Maria, Nate, Ophelia, Philippe, Rita, Stan, Tammy, Vince, Wilma. A．Reason for naming hurricanes
B．Warning of an approaching hurricane
C．Deadly women
D．History of naming hurricanes
E．Organization responsible for naming hurricanes
F．Ways to track hurricanes
第 20 题 Paragraph 1______________
Hurricane
(1) A hurricane (飓风) is a tropical storm with winds that have reached a constant speed of 74 miles per hour. Hurricane winds blow in a large spiral (螺旋) around a relative calm center known as the "eye". The "eye" is generally 20 to 30 miles wide, and the storm may extend outward 400 miles. As a hurricane nears land, it can bring heavy rains, high winds, and storm surges (风暴潮) . The storm surges and heavy rains can lead to flooding.
(2) Hurricanes are given a different label, depending on where they occur. If they begin over the North Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, or the Northeast Pacific Ocean,they are called hurricanes. Similar storms that occur in the Northwest Pacific Ocean or west of the International Date Line are called typhoons. Near Australia and in the Indian Ocean, they are referred to as tropical cyclones (龙卷风) .
(3) When a hurricane hits land, it can do great damage through its fierce winds, heavy rains, inland (内陆的) flooding, and huge waves crashing on to the shore. During a hurricane, homes, businesses, and public buildings may be damaged or destroyed; roads and bridges can be washed away. A powerful hurricane can kill more people and destroy more property than any other natural disaster.
Fishermen are at special risk from hurricanes as they may be at sea when a hurricane arrives and not be able to get to a safe harbour if they do not receive adequate warning.
(4) If a hurricane is coming in your area, the most important thing is to stay calm and fred shelter immediately. Go to your safe room. If you do not have one, stay indoors during the hurricane and go to a safer place near the center of your home. Cover yourself with a blanket and be sure to keep away from windows and glass doors, because if the glass breaks it&39;s really dangerous. Do not be fooled if there is a lull (暂停) ; it could be the eye of the storm--winds will pick up again.

听力原文： Weather scientists call hurricanes by names to make clear which storm they are talking about. An Australian weather scientist began giving women's names to storms before the end of the nineteenth century. Weather scientists used the names of their girlfriends or wives for storms during World War Two. (33) The United States weather service started officially using women's names for storms in nineteen fifty-three. In nineteen seventy-eight, it began including men's names as well.
(34) Today, scientists make up lists of names years in advance, They agree on them at meetings of the concerned organization. The lists include both American and international names.
The United States National Hurricane Center near Miami, Florida, watches for the development of storms. It gives a name to each one that reaches a wind speed of sixty-two kilometers an hour. A different list of names is used each year. The first name begins with the letter "A". The second begins with "B" and so on. The same list will not be used again for at least six years. The names of storms that have caused extremely severe damage may be retired at the request of the country that was affected. That name will not be used again for at least ten years. (35) This is done to avoid legal problems or confusion. It may be reasonable that the United States asks that the name Katrina be retired.
(34)
A．Before 19th century
B．During World War Two
C．In 1978.
D．In 1953.
