38、 , “The light should be useful to all ships leaving Boston. However , its illuminating power is so weak that people would hardly be able to differentiate it from the lights set on the ships which stay in the bay, or close by. It hasn't played its role as a lighthouse well.”The result was that ol

They bring along very strong winds and a lot of rainfall. They often cause flooding near the coasts and sea levels r

46、ise.61. Hurricanes are born over tropical oceans,usually during late summer and early autumn. They need two things to get them started: heat and moist air. During the summer the ocean surface heats up and warm moist air starts to rise. Cool air sinks down to replace it. This creates an area of low p

47、ressure. The rotation of the earth creates winds around the center of such a low-pressure area. In the northern hemisphere the air moves counter clockwise, in the southern part clockwise. Such a system is called a cyclone. When warm air rises, it cools and creates clouds. Soon, thunderstorms form an

48、d it starts to rain.All hurricanes begin as cyclones but not all cyclones become storms or hurricanes.Some die out a few days after they start. They don' t have enough energy to become ahurricane. When winds are stronger than 119 km an hour a storm officially becomes a hurricane.62. The center o

49、f a hurricane is called the eye, a calm area with little rainfall. It is about 30 to 50 km wide. Inside the eye the sea can rise up to one meter because the air moves up. The eye wall is around the eye. This is an area of thunderstorms, rain and the strongest winds up to 300 km an hour. Then come lo

50、ng bands of rain clouds that are curved towards the center of the hurricane.63. In the northern hemisphere hurricanes normally move in a westward direction and then they turn north and northeast. Their path takes them away from the warm tropical water of the equator （赤道）.When hurricanes move over co

51、lder water or over land they lose a lot of their energy. They slow down and as time goes on, they disappear. In the southern hemisphere their path leads them to the south and southeast.64. When a tropical storm forms over the Caribbean Sea it gets a name. Every year the first storm of the season is

52、given a name that starts with the letter A, the second storm gets a name starting with B and so on. Years ago only womennarin es wereused for tropical storms. Today male and female names alternate能流交替）for example, the first storm is named Alexandra, the second one Billy, then Catherine etc. Each yea

53、r new names are used so that you can connect a storm to a certain year.65.

Most of them are likely to feel dissatisfied with their reflection in the mirror.It is quite possible that men looking in the mirror are ei

57、ther pleased with what they see or indifferent. Researchshows that men generally have a much more positive body-image than women-if anything, they may tend to over-estimate their attractiveness. Some men looking in the mirror may literally not see the flaws in their appearance.Why are women so much

58、more self-critical than men? Because women are judged more on their appearance than men, and standards of female beauty are considerably higher and more inflexible. Women are continually bombarded with images of the “ideal face. And constant exposure to idealized images of female beauty on TV, magazinesand billboards makes exceptional
