At the very beginning, they lift off in no order. But3they form a V shape, with one bird leading the group.This V shape helps geese to4energy.

The bird5has the hardest job.When it gets tired, it moves behind, and6bird moves into the lead. By sharing the role, the group can travel long distances. Geese flying in a V shape can fly 70 percent farther without7than birds flying alone.During the long flying journey, geese communicate with one another.

For some countries it is an important happening to celebrate each year, while for others it is a catastrophe (灾难) or even a wonder.There are countries between these two extremes (极端) that normally expect snow some time over the winter months, but never receive snow regularly or in the same quantities(数量) every year. Britain is one such country, for which the arrival of snow quite simply creates problems. Within hours of the first snowfall, however light, roads are blocked, trains and buses stop in the middle of traffic. Normal communications are affected as well, telephone calls become difficult and the post immediately takes more time than usual. Almost within hours, there are also shortages(不足) - bread, vegetables and other things - not because all these things can no longer be produced or sent to shops, but mainly because people are frightened, and go out to store up these commodities (日用品), “just for fear that something bad should happen.”Why then does snow have this effect? After all, the Swiss, Austrians and Canadians dont have such problems. It is simply because there is not enough planning and preparation. We need money to buy equipment to deal with snow and ice. To keep the roads clear, for example, requires snow ploughs and machines to spread salt. The reason why a country like Britain does not buy some ploughs is that they are only used for a few days in any one year, and the money could be more useful in other things such as hospitals, education or helping the old.（1）According to the writer, Britain is a country_.A . which has regular snowB . which is not well prepared for snowC . for which snow is not a problemD . for which snow is a wonder（2）The arrival of snow in Britain affects all of the following except_A . trafficB . communicationC . food suppliesD . service quality（3）After a few hours snowing there are often shortages of food because_A . shops have closed downB . people buy as much as they canC . farmers cant produce any moreD . people eat more vegetables in winter（4）The first reason that the British dont buy snow ploughs is that_A . spreading salt is good enoughB . old people need more moneyC . snow ploughs are not used oftenD . the hospital is more important4. （6分）阅读理解 To: Aggieyahoo. com.From: Joeheinfo. netSubject.
