Were drawn Drawn Being drawn Having drawn They were drawn Text 1 A tsunami is a series of ocean waves that sends surges of water, sometimes reaching heights of over 100 feet (30.5 meters), onto land. These walls of water can cause widespread destruction when they crash ashore. These awe-inspiring waves are typically caused by large, undersea earthquakes at tectonic plate boundaries. When the ocean floor at a plate boundary rises or falls suddenly, it displaces the water above it and launches the rolling waves that will become a tsunami. Most tsunami, about 80 percent, happen within the Pacific Ocean's "Ring of Fire," a geologically active area where tectonic shifts make volcanoes and earthquakes common. Tsunamis may also be caused by underwater landslides or volcanic eruptions. They may even be launched, as they frequently were in Earth's ancient past, by the impact of a large meteorite plunging into an ocean. Tsunamis race across the sea at up to 500 miles (805 kilometers) an hour — about as fast as a jet airplane. At that pace they can cross the entire expanse of the Pacific Ocean in less than a day. And their long wavelengths mean they lose very little energy along the way. A tsunami's trough, the low point beneath the wave's crest, often reaches shore first. When it does, it produces a vacuum effect that sucks coastal water seaward and exposes harbor and sea floors. This retreating of sea water is an important warning sign of a tsunami, because the wave's crest and its enormous volume of water typically hit shore five minutes or so later. Recognizing this phenomenon can save lives. A tsunami is usually composed of a series waves, called a wave train, so its destructive force may be compounded as successive waves reach shore. People experiencing a tsunami should that the danger may not have ed with the first wave and should await official word that it is safe to return to vulnerable locations. Some tsunamis do not appear on shore as massive breaking waves but instead resemble a quickly surging tide that inundates coastal areas. 2. Why did the author write the report? To raise people' awareness about tsunami. To warn people about an tsunami. To inform people about past tsunamis. To inform people about the different types of tsunami. To warn people about the dangers of tsunami. 3. From the text, we know that Tsunami can be very destructive because .... they come after earthquakes they are caused by volcanic eruptions

Perhaps you wonder where all that chemical energy comes from. Why doesn't the food all get used up? The answer is that new food is being grown as fast as old food is used to. It is the green plants that form the new food. Animals either eat the plants or eat other animals that have eaten plants. The green substance of plants is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll can absorb sunlight. When it does so, it changes the energy of the sun into chemical energy. The chemical energy present in sunlit chlorophyll is used to combine dioxide in the air with water from the soil. Starch and other complicated compounds are formed. These are high in chemical energy obtained from the sunlit chlorophyll. They make up the food on which mankind and all other animals live. In the process of forming this food, some oxygen atoms are left over. These are given off into the air by the plants. The whole process is called photosynthesis. Thus, plants use sunlight to from food and oxygen to from carbon dioxide and water again. Plants change the sun's energy into chemical energy. And animals change the animal energy into kinetic and heat energy. 4. What will happen when the chlorophyll absorbs sunlight? It will.... change heat into kinetic energy form complicated compound make use of heat energy change kinetic energy into chemical energy change the sun's energy into chemical energy 5. From the text we know that .... plant need to heat energy to live all human beings need chemical energy plants absorb sunlight to produce kinetic energy chlorophyll is the most important thing in photosynthesis sun's energy cannot be formed into kinetic energy 6.

They belong to the same group as lizard (the scaled group, Squamata) but from a sub-group of their own (Serpentes). Snakes have two legs but a long time ago they had claws to help them slither along. Snakes are not slimy. They are covered in scales which are just bumps on the skin. Their skin is hard and glossy to reduce friction as the snake slithers along the ground. Snakes often sun bathe on rock in the warm weather. This is because snake is cold-blooded; they need the sun's warmth to heat their bodies up. Most snakes live in the country. Some types of snakes live in trees; some live-in water, but most live on the ground in deserted rabbit burrows, in thick, long grass, and in old logs. A snake's diet usually consists of frogs, lizards, mice, and other snakes. The anaconda can eat small crocodiles and even bears. Many snakes protect themselves with their fangs.

The use of formalin and other dangerous preservatives in food has been a serious for two reasons. Firstly, formalin is not for human beings, but it is for biological specimen and experiments. Formalin in biology is a 10% solution of formaldehyde in water which is usually used as a disinfectant or to preserve biological specimens. Thus, it is not for food preservative, it will be very dangerous to human's body. The second reason is that there is not tight control from the government. This condition makes the people's health is really in a threat.
