On the day the tornado hit,there was no indication that severe weather was on its way—the sky was blue and the sun bad been out.The first alert my husband,Jimmy,67,and I,65,got came around 9 p.m.,from some scrolling text on the TV Jimmy was watching.He ran upstairs to find me in our third-floor bedroom,and we changed the channel from the presidential primary debate I had been watching to our local Pensacola,Florida,station.
No sooner had we found coverage of the tornado than it was on top of us.It was the loudest thing I have ever heard.The bones of the house shook,and the power went out.The wind began to roar through the house,most likely through blown-out windows and the door to our garage.We had three flights of steps to navigate to get to the relative safety of the first floor,because the cupboard down there is underneath a brick staircase.
I didn't know how or if we would make it down the steps.It felt as if there were no floor underneath me as the wind lifted me off my feet.I tried to move forward,but this intense pressure held me in place.
As we reached the last flight of steps,our front door blew out.Pieces of glass that looked like crushed ice flew everywhere.Suddenly,a three-foot-long tree branch crashed into the door frame.It flew over our heads,missing us by inches.Had we been one step up,it would have hit us.
By the time I reached the cupboard,the tornado had been over us for about a minute.Jimmy pushed me down to the cupboard floor,but he couldn't get inside himself because of the wind.I held Jimmy's arm and tried to bring Jimmy with it.My knees were full of glass,but at that moment,I felt no pain.If I had let go,Jimmy would have flown right out the back of the house and into the bay.
All of a sudden,Jimmy lifted off his feet like people in tornadoes do in the movies.I thought he was gone.And then everything stopped.He landed on his feet.In those first quiet moments,I couldn't believe it was over,Jimmy said he'd go outside to check."No,"I said."Don't leave me.Don't leave me."
Our neighbor says the storm lasted four minutes.In that time,four of the twelve town houses in our unit were completely destroyed.Of the houses left standing,ours suffered the most damage.Amazingly,none of us were severely injured.

B. Because she was too scared to feel pain.
C. Because she devoted all her strength to holding on to her husband.

The results of an admittedly small but telling new study suggest that Medicare and other insures could be spending billions of dollars on screening(拍片检查)smokers for lung cancer that would be better spent on helping them quit and keeping others from starting.The new study indicated that screening more often supported smokers’ beliefs that they could safely continue to smoke.Most participants remained smoker because they believed screening could catch cancer early before it would threaten their lives.
“They compared how hard it was to quit smoking with how easy it was to be screened,”said Steven B. Zeliadt, the lead author of the study. "They engaged in magical thinking that now there's this wonderful painless external test that can save lives."
He and seven colleagues conducted the study of 37 current smokers who were offered lung cancer screening at Department of Veteran Affairs. After being screened and told the results. they were interviewed about their smoking-related health beliefs. For about half of those in whom cancer was not found. "Screening lowered their motivation for quitting." the team reported in July in JAMA Internal Medicine. The participants focused only on lung cancer, ignoring other potential harm of smoking. the researchers wrote.
A national study published four years ago found that annual CT screening for lung cancer three years in a row could reduce deaths among heavy smokers by about 20 percent.In an interview, Dr. Russell P. Harris, a preventive medicine specialist at the UNC-Chapel Hill. noted that "screening is being believed by people as an alternative to stopping smoking. But stopping smoking would have huge benefits for the individual and society." Furthermore, smoking causes many other cancers.
Dr. Harris agreed that rather than screening money is better spent on smoking prevention. He suggested providing free stop-smoking aids. sponsoring anti-smoking advertising and raising taxes on tobacco products and the age at which people are allowed to buy them.
1.What does the new study suggest?
A. Screening technology remains to be advanced and more effective.
B. Screening can find cancer in patients and give them timely treatment.
C. Helping people quit smoking is better than screening them for cancer.
D. Admitting smoking before screening can help one to stop smoking.
2.What effect can screening have on most smokers?
A. They will be scared by the result and quit smoking.
B. They will believe screening can catch cancer early and not quit.
C. They will lose hope and go on smoking.
D. They will know screening costs less than smoking.
3.What does the underlined word“they”(in Paragraph 5)refer to?
A. The smokers screened in the study.
B. Steven Zeliadt and his colleagues.
C. Dr. Harris and his patients.
D. The patients' smoking-related health beliefs
4.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. The Effect of Screening for Cancer Patients
B. Screening Alone Doesn’t Do the Work
C. Screening Has a Say in Cancer Detecting
D. Screening May Not Push Smokers to Quit
