But when bad weather gives you trouble, can you still make it before the bell rings?In northern China during spring, big sandstorms often make trouble for students and everyone else. When the sky is dark with sand, buses and cars all move much more slowly. Sometimes, people cant even see for 20 metres.Sandstorms usually happen in spring. This year, sandstorms started in late March. They have happened in more than 10 provinces (省) in northern China this year. More than 70 million people have had problems in those places because of the sandstorms.People in southern China dont have to worry about this kind of bad weather. Most of the sand comes from Gansu and Inner Mongolia（内蒙古）. In northern China, lots of places have few trees and dont get much rain. People there have been cutting down too many trees. When there arent many trees, the ground cant keep enough water. Over the years, the ground dries up and turns to sand. When spring comes and the ice melts（融化）, the ground becomes looser（更松散的）. Strong winds take the loose sand into the sky.Sandstorms are bad for peoples health. If people breathe（呼吸） too much sand, they could cough or have asthma（哮喘）.Sandstorms also give farmers lots of problems. Sometimes their sheep get lost in the storms and never get back home. The winds also tear down farmers houses.What can you do to stop sandstorms?

It means normal and polite social behavior. This may seem like a difficult word at first, but it can be very useful to understand.Etiquette is not the same in every culture or in every situation. For example, standing very close to the person you are talking with is quite common in some Asian countries. However, if you do this in Europe，some people might feel uncomfortable. Even in China，we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations. Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine, but there are other places where talking loudly is not allowed. For example, most people would agree that talking loudly in a library, a museum or a movie theater is impolite. Even if you are with your friends, it is better to keep your voice down in public places.If we see someone breaking the rules of etiquette, we may politely give them some suggestions. One of the most polite ways is to ask someone，“Would you mind doing this” or “Would you mind not doing that”. People dont usually like to be criticized, so we have to be careful how we do this.Although rules of etiquette can often be different，some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world! For example, dropping litter is almost never allowed. If you see someone you know doing this, you can ask him，“Would you mind picking it up？”根据短文内容，完成下列任务。（1）What does the word “etiquette” mean？(根据短文内容回答问题)_（2）Find out the key sentence of Paragraph 2.(找出第二段的中心句)_（3）If your friend talks loudly in the library, what would you say to him/her？(根据你对短文 的理解，写出一个委婉的建议)_（4）请将最后一段中的画线句子译成汉语。_（5）请给短文拟个标题。_四、 根据句意和音标提示以适当形式填写正确的单词。 (共7题；共50分)15. （2分）Liu Yifei is very beautiful.
