Hurricane
1 A hurricane (飓风) is a tropical storm with winds that have reached a constant speed of 74 miles per hour. Hurricane winds blow in a large spiral(螺旋) around a relative calm center know as the "eye". The "eye" is generally 20 to 30 miles wide, and the storm may extend outward 400 miles. As a hurricane nears land, it can bring heavy rains, high winds, and storms (风暴潮). The storm surges and heavy rains can lead to flooding.
2 Hurricanes are given a different label, depending on where they occur. If they begin over the North Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, or the Northeast Pacific Ocean, they are called hurricanes. Similar storms that occur in the Northwest Pacific Ocean west of the International Date Line are called typhoon. Near Australia and in the India Ocean, they are referred to as tropical cyclones (龙卷风).
3 When a hurricane hits land, it can do great damage through its fierce winds, heavy rains, inland (内陆的) flooding, and huge waves crashing on to the shore. During a hurricane, homes, businesses, and public buildings may be damaged or destroyed; road and bridges can be washed away. A powerful hurricane can kill more people and destroy more property than any other natural disaster. Fishermen are at special risk from hurricanes as they may be at sea when a hurricane arrives and not be able to get to a safe harbour if they do not receive adequate warning.
4 If a hurricane is coming in your area, the most important thing is to stay calm and find shelter immediately. Go to your safe room. If you do not have one, stay indoors during the hurricane and go to a safer place near the center of your home. Cover yourself with a blanket and be sure to keep away from windows and glass doors, because if the glass breaks it's really dangerous. Do not be fooled if there is a lull (暂停); it could be the eye of the storm-winds will pick up again.

第4部分：阅读理解（第31~45题，每题3分，共45分）
下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容，为每题确定1个最佳选项。
第一篇 Weaving With Light
In the Sierra Madre mountain range of west central Mexico，the native Huichol people live much the way their ancestors did-without electricity．That's because it's too expensive to string power lines to the remote mountain areas where they live．To help support themselves，the Huichol create beautiful artwork．They sell their art in cities hundreds of miles away from their villages．And without electricity-at home or on the road，they can only work during daylight hours. When it gets dark，they must stop whatever they're doing．
Now，a team of scientists，designers，and architects is using new technologies to provide the Huichol with light after the sun sets．The scientists' technique involves weaving tiny electronic crystals into fabrics that can be made into clothes，bags，or other items．
By collecting the sun's energy during the day，these lightweight fabrics provide bright white light at night．Their inventors have named the fabrics"Portable （轻便的）Lights．"Portable Lights have the potential to transform the lives of people without electricity around the world，says project leader Sheila Kennedy．
