Ⅸ.阅读表达(10分)

阅读下面短文，根据其内容完成后面的各项任务。

In the Charles E. Johnson Elementary School in New York, there is a special radio. It gives people warnings (警报) about bad weather.

One day, there came a sound from the radio. This sound brought the piece of news: a heavy storm was coming. William Tomic, principal (校长) of the school, he asked teachers to bring children indoors and put them in a safe place at once.

Minutes later, the storm came. However, because of the warning of the radio and the quick work of the principal, no one was hurt. “The radio really did work very well. 我们对它的工作感到很高兴,” William Tomic said. “The parents were as well.” The US government hopes there will be more such success stories. It plans to give this kind of radios to all 97, 000 public schools in the country.

Every year, more than 10,000 big thunderstorms, 2,500 floods, 1,000 tomatoes (龙卷风) and some hurricanes (飓风) take place in the US, so the warning radios are very useful.

They not only give people warnings about bad weather, but also give warnings about other dangerous things.

书面表达

Different people have different bobbies, such as reading and so on. My hobbies are listening to music and doing sports. I became interested in music when I was 8 years old. My father bought me a radio as my 10th birthday gift so I could enjoy great music on the radio after I finished my homework. As well as listening to music, I enjoy doing sports. Basketball is my favourite. So far, I have played for the school basketball team for 4 years. I think music and sports make me feel relaxed and they can bring me lots of fun.
