Plants and animals are largely made of water. So are humans. They need to keep enough water inside them, or they could die.
We get some of the water we need by eating food that has water in it. Drinks, such as milk and tea, are mostly water, too. A person needs water every day. If we go without water for three or four days, we will lose too much water from our bodies. In very hot weather, we could lose this water in just one day.
What does water do to help our bodies Water helps to take the nutrition(营养)from food to our bodies. It also helps to take the wastes away from different parts of our bodies.
In our homes, we also need water for many things. We need water for cooking, washing and flushing(冲水)the toilet. About three quarters of the water is used in the bathroom and toilet. The rest is mainly used in the laundry(洗衣房)and kitchen.
___________It may come from a lake or a river. It may come from the sea, from the rain and snow or from the underground. Water rises from rivers and seas to0 make clouds, and then falls again as rain and snow. The water you dink has been around for millions of years. It just keeps being recycled.

About 750 years ago，a man named Marco Polo went to China.He started in Europe and traveled more than 5，000 miles.He crossed some large deserts.The journey took almost three years.There were no planes or trains then.So how did Polo make the trip？He rode a camel.
Like horses, camels can work as pack animals.They can carry many pounds of cargo（货物），such as food and supplies.That is very helpful for a long trip.They act as "ships of the desert".
Camels do well in the desert.They can go for several days without water.They can survive a long time without food，too.
There are two kinds of camels.One kind has one hump.The other has two.These humps store fat.If needed，the fat turns into water.
Camels have other special ways to deal with desert life.They have a thick coat.This keeps them warm at night and cool in the day.They have long eyelashes and an extra eyelid.These help protect their eyes.Camels also have thick lips. They can eat all kinds of plants，even thorny ones.
They are not picky about food.That is good because few plants grow in deserts.They also have very large feet.These help camels walk on sand.Camels can run on sand，too.They can go about 25 miles per hour.That's about as fast as a racing bicycle.
Camels have carried people and things for thousands of years.Today they play other roles in the modern world，too.
26.According to the passage，how did Marco Polo make his trip to China
A.By horse. B.By camel. C.On foot. D.By ship.

A tornado(龙卷风)is a kind of strong storm with air which moves in a circle quickly. They can move over 200 miles per hour and cause a lot of damage(损坏). As they move across the land, they can easily pick up cars, trucks, and even houses, and then throw them very far. It is important to find a safe place if a tornado gets close.
A safe place could be a basement(地下室)or the lowest floor. If you are in a home without a basement, try to find a first-floor bathroom or a small room without windows in the middle of your house. You should curl up(蜷缩)into a ball and cover your head and neck with your hands.
But there are some people who actually want to get close to tornadoes. They are scientists who want to learn more about tornadoes. One of the best ways to do this is to get as close as possible to the tornado. They use special tools to measure (测量) what is happening in and around a tornado.
One special tool is called a tornado probe(探测仪). Inside the tornado probe, there are sensors(传感器)to measure wind speed, temperature, pressure, and direction. Some probes even have cameras, so the scientists can see and understand what it’s like to be in a tornado.
To be able to get these measurements, the scientists have to get a tornado probe near or into a tornado. Scientists will try to guess where a tornado will go next. Then they drive to that location and put down the probe. If they do not guess correctly, they pick up their probe and try another place. If they are right, the tornado will go near or even right over the probe. Then they take all of the measurements from the probe and use them to predict where future tornadoes may form(形成)and travel. And they can give people some warning to keep away from a dangerous tornado.
31. If a tornado gets close, what should people do to keep safe
A. Go to a basement. B. Find a small room.
C. Stay in a bathroom. D. Curl the legs up.
32. What can the sensor in a probe NOT do
A. Measure wind speed and temperature. B. Take photos and videos.
C. Measure wind temperature and pressure. D. Measure wind speed and direction.
33. Which statement about the scientists is TRUE
A. They risk their lives studying tornadoes.
B. They can easily put the probe in the right place.
C. They get close to a tornado to admire it.
D. With the help of the measurements, they can prevent the tornado forming.
34. The passage mainly tells us ________.
A. what a tornado is B. how dangerous a tornado is
C. where a tornado may form and travel D. how scientists do research work on tornadoes
35. You may find this passage in ________.
A. a novel B. a storybook C. a guidebook D. a science magazine
