Tornadoes(龙卷风) are nature's most violent storms, which can cause deaths and destroy a neighborhood in seconds. A tornado appears as a rotating，funnel(漏斗)－shaped cloud that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground with whirling winds that can reach 300 miles per hour. Damage paths can be over one mile wide and 50 miles long. Every state is at some risk from this disaster.
Some tornadoes can be seen clearly, while rain or nearby low－hanging clouds obscure others. At many times, tornadoes develop so rapidly that little, if any, advance warning is possible.
Before a tornado hits, the air may become very still. A cloud of debris(散片) can mark the location of a tornado even if a funnel can not be seen. Tornadoes generally occur near the edge of a thunderstorm, when the strong wind may die down. It is not uncommon to see clear, sunlit skies behind a tornado.
The following are facts about tornadoes：
☆The average forward speed of a tornado is 30 MPH，but may also vary from still to 70 MPH. Debris is picked up or a cloud forms in the funnel.
☆The average tornado moves from southwest to northeast, but tornadoes have been known to move in any direction. Tornadoes are most often reported east of the Rocky Mountains during spring and summer months.
☆Tornadoes can happen together with tropical storms and hurricanes as they move onto land. Waterspouts are tornadoes that form over water.
☆Peak tornado season in the southern states of America is March through May; in the northern states, it is late spring through early summer. Tornadoes are most likely to occur between 3 p. m. and 9 p. m．， but can occur at any time.

A．hurricanes B．great heat
C．thunderstorms D．sandstorms

4．When a tornado happens, ________.
A．it can only be seen in the late of the day
B．it only moves from southwest to northeast
C．it may form on the surface of sea water
D．it often reaches the speed of 70 MPH

Ⅵ.七选五阅读
Listening is an essential part of communication, and it is different from hearing. Being a good and patient listener helps you not only solve many problems at work or home, but also to see the world through the eyes of others, thereby opening your understanding and enhancing your capacity for empathy.
Place yourself in the other person's shoes. Active listening is not about inward thinking. Instead, you must look at the problems from the other person's perspective and actively try to see his or her point of view. It is not a good idea to consider yourself to be smarter than the speaker and assume that if you would have been in his or her shoes, you would have seen your way through the problem much faster. __1__
Create a conducive physical and mental space. Remove all distractions. __2__ Turn off cell phones. It may be easiest to arrange to talk somewhere that distractions will not occur. Quiet your mind and open yourself to whatever the person might have to say.
__3__ It might sound obvious and trite, but one of the biggest obstacles to listening, for many people, is resisting the impulse thoughts. Likewise, many think that empathy means sharing with the listener similar experiences that the listener has had.
Follow and encourage the speaker with body language. Nodding your head will indicate you hear what the speaker is saying. __4__ Adopting body postures, positions and movements that are similar to the speaker will allow the speaker to relax and open up more.
Do not interrupt with what you feel or think about the topic being discussed. Wait for another person to ask your opinion before interrupting the flow of discussion. Active listening requires the listener to shelve his or her own opinions temporarily, and await appropriate breaks in the conversation for summarizing. __5__ Besides，if he or she takes your advice and something goes wrong, he or she will be likely to blame you.
A．Give all of your attention.
B．Try to reassure the speaker that all is well.
C．Stop talking and try to be silent.
D．Avoid giving direct advice.
E．And it will encourage them to continue.
F．Ask meaningful and empowering questions.
G．Remember you have two ears and one mouth for a reason.
