A

Using 1900 as a starting point, here's a look at some of the most powerful and destructive hurricanes in the last 120 years in the US.

Most powerful hurricanes

Hurricane Camille, which landed on August 17, 1969 near Waveland, Mississippi, is the most powerful storm to strike the Gulf Coast. Camille is one of the four category(级别)-5 hurricanes ever to make a landing in the US, the others being the 1935 Labor Day Hurricane, Hurricane Andrew in 1992 and Hurricane Michael in 2018.

According to the National Weather Service, the actual wind speed of Hurricane Camille might be around 175 mph along the coast.

Until the arrival of Hurricane Katrina,Camille's more than 24-foot storm wave in Pass Christian, Mississippi, held the record. Katrina's storm wave along the Mississippi coast reached 30 feet.

Costliest hurricanes

Hurricane Katrina is not only the costliest-ever US hurricane but also the most expensive natural disaster in the country's history. Not only did it cost as many as 1,836 lives and leave millions of people homeless, but it also caused $ 160 billion in damages.

Katrina landed near the Gulf Coast on August 29,2005 as a category-3 storm. The hurricane's record-breaking waves flooded 80% of the city.

Deadliest hurricanes

The category-4 Hurricane Galveston made a surprising landing along the Texas coast on September 8,1900. It caused a 16-foot storm wave and its wind speed reached 150 mph.

A large part of the city of Galveston, Texas, was left in ruins. The number of death reached 12,000 on Galveston Island and the mainland. It remains the deadliest weather disaster in the US history as it gave the people no time to move out.

1. How many category-5 storms have stricken the US since 1900?

A. 1.    B. 2.    C. 3.    D. 4.

2. Which is the costliest hurricane in the US?

C. Hurricane Katrina.     D. Labor Day Hurricane.

3. Why has Hurricane Galveston become the deadliest weather disaster in the US?

  Some students get so nervous before a test, they do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock, a professor at the University of Chicago in Illinois, has studied these highly anxious test-takers. The students start worrying about the results. And when we worry ,
it actually uses up attention and memory resources（资源）.

 Professor Beilock and another researcher, Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test.

  The researchers tested the idea on a group of twenty anxious college students. They gave them two short math tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the upcoming second test.

  Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of twelve percent worse on the second test. But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance by an average of five percent. Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated to the test. Prefessor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B+, compared to a B- for those who did not.

“ What we showed is that for students who are highly test-anxious, who"d done our
writing intervention（干预）, all of a sudden there was no relationship between test anxiety and performance. They were performing just as well as their classmates who don"t normally get nervous in these testing situations."

  But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before

an exam. Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and
still improve their performance.

4. What may the students start worrying about before an exam?

A. Whether they can pass the exams.

B. What other students do during the test.

C. Whether they have remembered the materials.

D. What kind of problems they will meet on the test paper.

5. What is the solution developed by researchers?

A. Asking the students to ignore the test.

B. Asking the students to focus on the test.

C. Asking the students to sit quietly before the test.

D. Asking the students to write about their worries before the test.

6. According to Professor Beilock, those who thought about things unrelated to the test     .

A. became less nervous before the test

B. were better at controlling their feelings

C. did worse than those who wrote about their feelings

D. did better than those who wrote about their feelings

7. What can be learned from the last paragraph?

A. Writing about our worries before an exam can work a bit.

B. We can only write about our worries right before an exam.

C. The best place to write about our worries is in the test room.

D. It doesn’t matter where we write about our worries before an exam.

 If you have ever done competitive sports, you will know that starting a new season means a lot of hard work and practice.      8       Here are a few ways to make sure that you’re ready for the first day.

     9   Schedule specific workout times during the week to help you sick with it. Ask your coach, gym teacher or trainer for some advice before writing your plan. Besides, write down how long you have worked out and what activity you have done.

 Asking your coach if you aren’t sure what you need. New equipment can be expensive, so think about using some second-hand equipment if it’s available. Brothers, sisters and friends can be great sources of used equipment.     10    You can ask your coach to take a look at it before the first day of practice. If you are a returning player, take out all your equipment, try it on and make sure that it still fits and works.

      11   Sports camps can help new and experienced players brush up on skills before the season starts. College players, coaches or other professionals usually teach in the camps. Many schools and colleges offer various sports camps during the summer and on the weekend during the school year.

 Your school or team will probably require a physical check before allowing you to participate. Because everyone needs to get checked at the beginning of the season, doctors tend to be busy those times of the year. Therefore, set up an appointment with the doctor earlier.     12  

A. Set realistic goals

B. You can also consider a sports camp.

C. Just make sure that it’s very clean and safe to use.

D. It’s also normal to feel a little nervous about starting.

E. Making the team and getting in shape are great goals.

F. Start by writing an exercise plan if you don’t have one.

G. That can give the doctor plenty of time to fill out your paperwork.
