At least 3 people are dead in the Philippines now that Typhoon Hagupit has landed.

The typhoon, which hit the eastern Philippines over the weekend, has blown down trees and sent more than 650­thousand people into shelters before weakening.

“There were very strong winds last night. The roof was beginning to move, and rain was getting inside the rooms，” said a villager.

The storm hit with gusts (强风) of over 100 miles per hour. And while the storm has slowed considerably from the super typhoon level it had last week, Hagupit still remains strong enough to create more damage.

Christopher Perez is a local weather forecaster. He says, “We are continuing to expect bad weather and rough ocean waves. Threats of possible flash floods and landslides (滑坡) as well as possible storm waves are occurring in coastal areas.”

Hagupit is expected to roll into the South China Sea tomorrow.

It's currently going westward toward the southern tip of Vietnam, meaning it's unlikely to affect China.

Hagupit's strength in the Philippines is much less severe than Typhoon Haiyan, which rolled through the country in 2013.

Haiyan's tsunami­like storm waves and killer winds left thousands of people dead and leveled_entire_villages.

The central Philippines is still trying to recover from last year's massive storm waves.

1.We can know from the passage that the Typhoon Hagupit is ________.

A．getting stronger

B．weakening

C．going to affect China soon

D．moving more than 120 miles per hour

2.The underlined part “leveled entire villages” probably means “________”．

A．destroyed all the buildings in the villages

B．were of the same sea level as the villages

C．killed all the villagers

D．blew down all the trees in the villages

3.Which of the following places suffered most when Typhoon Haiyan rolled in?

A．The eastern Philippines.

B．The southern tip of Vietnam.

C．The South China Sea.

D．The central Philippines.

4.What do we know about Typhoon Haiyan from the passage?

A．It caused less severe damage than Typhoon Hagupit.

B．It also rolled in Vietnam and China.

C．It brought about a lot of deaths.

D．It damaged the roofs of all the houses.

British people work some of the longest hours in Europe, but are among the least productive. Now some companies are shortening the working week to increase efficiency, health and happiness.

Rich Leigh has introduced a four-day week at his PR company. In fact, his entire company has Friday off, because his firm has adopted a four-day week. It is one of a handful of UK businesses that now operate like this: staff still get paid their previous five-day salary, but they work a day less. The company found that they achieved just as much—and there were even sighs of growth. “The key to the scheme’s success,” Leigh says, “is how happy our employees now are.”

The average British worker takes only a 34 minute lunch break and works 10 hours overtime each week (more often than not this is unpaid). Yet UK productivity falls seriously behind their European neighbors, who tend to work fewer hours.

British working practices have caused loss and damage to the nation’s health and happiness. More than half a million workers in the UK were signed off with work-related stress or anxiety last year. Moreover, the work landscape itself is changing. Automation and AI will have a significant impact on the labor market, where unsteady work becomes more common.

Britain is the only EU member that allows workers to ignore the EU working time limit and work longer hours. For campaigners, now is the time for a change. O’Grady, an advocate, argues that where businesses have increased their profits as a result of automation, success should be shared with workers in the form of reduced hours. “It’s time to share the benefits from new technology, not allowing those at the top to grab them for themselves.” she says.

1.We can learn from the passage that ________.

A. British people are the least productive in the world

B. Most companies in Britain have conducted a four-day week

C. PR company has witnessed a rise in employees’ happiness

D. British people work longer and get more payment than other countries

2.Which is the proper description of British working practices?

A. The working time of British workers is within the EU limit.

B. In terms of productivity, Britain is beaten by the United States.

C. Profits gained from new technology are on the decrease.

D. Automation and AI are likely to cause an instable work market.

3.Which can be inferred from O’Grady’ s words in the last paragraph?

A. It’s time for employers to share the increased profits created by automation.

B. Workers should benefit from automation in the form of less working hours.

C. New technology should belong to both businesses and workers.

D. Businesses can’t make more profits without new technology.

4.What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?

A. To introduce some British firms’ switch to a four-day working week.

B. To explain the reasons why British workers suffer stress and anxiety.

C. To appeal for more reasonable working conditions.

D. To present the current productivity problem in Britain.

Speaking in public is most people's least favorite thing．The reason is that we are all afraid of making fools of ourselves．The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become．In fact, public speaking is not a "gift" like musical talent （天赋） ．Anybody who can talk can speak in public．Here are some of the lessons I have learned:

Try to make your idea clear and brief．If you can't express what you intend to get across in a sentence or two, and then your speech is not focused well enough．If you don't have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience will make no sense．After all, what you can impress your audience in your speech is one or two of your main ideas．One or two．Not ten or twenty．

No matter how long or short your speech is, you've got to organize it well-how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you're going to close．A strong close is critical: the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember．When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first．When you know where you're headed, you can choose any route to get there．

Finally, you'd better limit the time of your speech as properly as you can to hold the audience's curiosity．Take a vaudeville act （杂耍） for example．The standard length of one is usually 12 minutes．Just imagine how you are feeling if you have been watching all the performers singing and dancing their hearts out for more than the standard time!

Speaking in public is most people’s least favorite thing. The reason is that we are all afraid of making fools of ourselves. 1.

But stop biting your finger-nails. Public speaking is easy. 2. Although I’m basically shy, I’ve been making speeches and talking on radio and television for more than 30 years, and I can tell you that public speaking is not a “gift” like musical talent. 3. Here are some of the lessons I have learned:

Your audience is going to come away with one or two of your main ideas. One or two. Not ten or twenty.

4.And if you don’t have a clear idea of what you want to say, there’s no way your audience will. No matter how long or short your speech is, you’ve got to get your ducks in a row, ---how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you’re going to close.

When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first. 5. A strong close is critical: the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember.

The standard length of a vaudeville (杂耍) act is usually 12 minutes. If all those performers singing and dancing their hearts out couldn’t go on longer without boring the audience, what makes you think you can?

A. Some people are born to be good at making speeches.

B. Anybody who can talk can speak in public.

C. Try to relax yourself before making the speech.

D. The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become.

E. If you can’t express in a sentence or two what you intend to get across, then your speech is not focused well enough.

F. When you know where you’re headed, you can choose any route to get there.

G. It’s just plain talking, and you talk all the time.

“I work with these girls．Every day I leave inspired and completely grateful，because I know that．due to the work we're doing with them，things will be better，”said GlobalGirl Media summer academy project director Heather Faison．
