But many places in the world have them frequently (频繁地). Countries that have a lot of earthquakes are usually quite mount

8、ainous.The strongest earthquakes are not always those that kill the most people. In 1964, a strong earthquake happened in Alaska and it was the strongest in North America. Although the earthquake brought terrible damage (损害) to this area, luckily, only 130 people died in it. Because most people real

9、ized the danger before the ground started to shake, they hid themselves in a safe place.The most talked-about earthquake in the United States was in San Francisco in 1906. With the earthquake, the fires broke out and they came so quickly that over 700 people were killed.However, according to the rep

10、orts, some other terrible earthquakes are not as strong as the two above, but they caused more deaths. For example, in 1923, a strong earthquake happened in the Tokyo and Yokohama area of Japan, which caused 140,000 deaths. And one of the worst earthquakes was in China in 2008, in which over 69,000

11、people were killed and over 370,000 were hurt. It was one of the worst natural disasters (灾难) in recent Chinese history.People worry a lot about earthquakes. The reason is that people do not know when earthquakes are coming. Luckily, with the development of technology, people have now improved their

12、 ability to prepare more for earthquakes, so they are able to protect themselves better.6What can we learn from Paragraph One?APeople neednt fear earthquakes now.BEarthquakes just happen in mountains.CEarthquakes have something to do with the forms of land.7Among the examples in the passage, the ear

15、aragraph to follow Paragraph Five?AHow do earthquakes worry people?BWhat will people do to prepare for earthquakes?CHow can we save people when earthquakes happen?We often find that weekends and holidays feel so short while classes and work feel so long. In fact, we know that this is not true. But w

16、e still wonder where that strange feeling comes from.In fact, this is one of the ways that were tricked by time according to the website All That Is Interesting. The website lists several wrong impressions (印象) we often have about time. Lets have a look.First of all, emotions (情绪) influence our time

17、-keeping abilities: Negative (bad) emotions especially anxiety (焦虑) and boredom make time seem longer, because they make us concentrate more on the passing of time. However, when we are enjoying ourselves, we pay more attention to what we are doing and will probably lose the sense of time.Here is an

18、other example. In 2007, a group of scientists carried out a test. In the test, people fell 50 meters into a safety net and were then asked about their experience. Although the experience took shorter than 3 seconds, the people thought it was much longer than it actually was.This is because of the wa

19、y our bodies reply to danger, according to the scientists. Our bodies produce a chemical called adrenaline (肾上腺素) when we are faced with danger. It allows us to concentrate better so that we can stay alive. As a result, we are able to remember far more little things over a short period of time, whic

20、h makes it seem like time is going more slowly.Another situation when we make mistakes about time is when we take afternoon naps (午觉). Have you ever had trouble telling what time it is after a long nap? Thats because the best amount of time for a nap is 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, you enter a new

21、period of sleep called slow-wave (慢波) sleep. If you wake up mid-way in this period, it will take a while before you can correctly perceive (感知) time again.Yes, time can be mysterious and there is no way to control it. So perhaps the best thing to do is to make good use of every minute.11How many exa
