Now satellites are helping to forecast the weather. They are in space, and they can reach

any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere, because this is where the

weather forms. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists(气象学

者)can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say

how the weather will change.

Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures.

When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps

they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the

weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists

can say this.

So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were

invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make

good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather

for a week or more ahead.

People have been enjoying the benefits of cycling(骑自行车) in Amsterdam(阿姆斯特丹)

for years. It is a good city for cycling because it is flat and there are plenty of places for bicycle

parking. Today some people call Amsterdam “City of Bicycles” because of the convenience for

bicycles there.

In the 1960s, a group of cycling fans had an idea. They believed that it would be better for

everybody if cars weren’t allowed in the city center and only bicycles were. They were hopeful

that this would help to save energy, reduce pollution and provide free public transport. The

group painted hundreds of bicycles white and placed them in lots of neighborhoods around

Amsterdam for people to use. Then a problem came-- thieves took all the bicycles within

weeks!

However, more than thirty years later, the “white bike’ is back in town--this time with a

computer chip(芯片) to record its every move! To take a bicycle, you have to insert(插入) a

special card. The new “ white bike” is not actually white but is an unusual design with bright

colours. The bikes are parked at special parking places and people who want to use them have

to take them to another special parking place that has enough room.

There is already less traffic in central Amsterdam, because both locals and tourists have

been using the white bikes. Instead, thanks to the good ideas of lots of people, like the cycling

fans in the 1960s, many people around the world have been enjoying city centre streets without

cars many years.

8.Amsterdam is called the “City of Bicycles” because of_________.

A.the cycling fans there B.the appearance for bicycles

C.the convenience of bicycles D.the quality of bicycles

9.In the 1960s, some cycling fans hoped bikes could_________.

A.be specially disignedB.help to save energy

C.be placed anywhere D.be painted in different colours

10.Why did the first “white bike” plan fail?

A.There were not enough parking places.

B.The government allowed people to drive cars freely.

C.Thieves took all the bikes within weeks.

D.People were tired of riding bikes.

11.What do people use if they want to take a “white bike” in the city?

A.A special computer. B.A common chip.

C.A special card. D.A white key.

Emmy Combs, 17, lost her hair as a young girl due to the autoimmune disorder, a disease

which caused complete loss of hair all over her body. From the age of five until she was 16,

Emmy wore bandanas(花绸巾) to cover her head.

But in May last year, she made the decision to stop wearing them. Emmy admitted that

taking her bandana off for the first time was a fearful experience, but her close friends and

family stuck by(继续支持) her. "It was time to try new things and I have always wanted to

grow out of wearing bandanas, " Emmy said. "My friends and family pushed me to go through

with it and I'm glad that they did. Even though it does not seem that hard to do, it was one of the

hardest things that I have ever done. It was stressful, but I had my friends and family by my side

the entire time. "

"I have always been a confident person to others and myself. I was at a very young age

when it happened, however over the many years of growing up with it the reaction I usually get

from people ranges from just curiosity and kind, generous comments. Sometimes I will get an

occasional rude-sounding comment, however I have never let it get to me. "

Emmy taught herself how to use make-up to improve her natural features and replace the

ones she's missing, such as eyebrows and lashes. She shares her make-up looks on her blog and

is committed to helping others be confident with their appearance.

"I have learned over the past 17 years of my life that you control how you want to live

your life. You choose the lifestyle that makes you happy, " she said.
