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). 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.

Dear Glen, I learned from the Internet that you are a young activist (活动家). What you did was so inspiring! Now, I want to do something to make a change in my community and become an activist myself! So I wonder: How can I be an activist Yours, Helen
Dear Helen, Anyone can become an activist if they really care about a social problem. I started speaking up about disabilities because I knew what it was like to be disabled and treated differently. When I was little, I wondered why toy figures didn’t look like me. So at the age of ten, I wrote to ask a big toy company. I even did a TED Talk about it. More than a year later, I got to work with a design team on a Barbie doll that uses a prosthetic leg (假肢). That experience showed me that the more I spoke up, the more changes I might be able to make. Sometimes, being an activist means speaking up in a more public way than you normally would. However, if you really have thoughts on social problems, learn as much as you can about them and find creative ways to speak up. Maybe you can work with other kids in your neighborhood to make a change. You don’t have to do something as big as creating a new toy or speaking in front of a crowd. If you help even one person learn and change, you’ve made a big difference! Yours, Glen Green

Can you know the meaning of “zero” Can you do addition and subtraction (加法和减法) Most people can. But do you know bees can do these things too A study shows that bees have even greater math abilities. After some training, they can know the difference between even numbers (ending in 0. 2. 4. 6 and 8) and odd number (ending in 1. 3. 5. 7 and 9).
Some Australian scientists put up different cards with an odd or even number of triangles. They used the numbers 1 to 10. Then they trained the first group of bees to choose odd numbers and the second group to choose even numbers. If a bee flew to the right card, it would get sugar water; if not, it would get bitter water.
In a short time all the bees knew what odd numbers or even numbers were. They could fly to the right numbers most of the time. After that, the scientists added new cards with the numbers 11 and 12. The bees never saw the numbers in their training before, but they could choose rightly most of the time. Surprisingly, the bees even learned odd numbers more quickly than humans.
How did the bees learn the numbers so fast Those Australian scientists believe that finding the answer will help them build better and faster computers. But all of them haven’t had a clear idea yet.

Every spring, the Spanish city of Seville turns orange and becomes one of Europe’s largest orange yards. About 50,000 orange trees line its streets and squares. Therefore, Seville has become a tourist place in Spain. However, these oranges also bring a lot of trouble to people’s life.
People eat very few of them. In fact, the fruit usually just gets in people’s way. Those fallen oranges make the streets become dirty with juice. The government has to hire (雇用) people to clean them. In the past, a small number of oranges were made into jam. They were also used to make wine. Most of them, however, ended up with becoming rubbish. Now, this is about to change.
The government and the organization EMASESA have tried to make full use of these oranges to produce electricity. It takes place at a wastewater treatment plant. Machines press the fruit and store the biogas (沼气) produced by juice. The biogas will then be used for the production of electricity.
“It’s not just about saving money,” said Benigno Lopez, head of EMASESA’s environmental department. “The orange is a problem for the city and we’re producing added value from waste.”
The project will start with 35 tons of oranges. Each ton of the fruit can produce 50kWh of electrical power which is enough to meet the usage of five homes per day. At the first try, it can power 150 homes in total. There would not be enough fruit to provide household electricity for the whole city but if all Seville’s oranges were used, they could create enough electricity to power 73,000 homes.
That’s what the juice does. The peels (皮) of oranges are also useful and farmers can use them as compost (堆肥).
