   Soon the tornado was on top of us.It was the loudest thing I had ever heard.The house shook，and the power went out.And the wind began to roar（咆哮）through the house，most likely through windows and the door to our garage.Everything was moving.And the back wall of the house came off and flew into the darkness outside.We had three flights of steps to get to the storeroom down there.the relative safety of the first floor.
   I didn't know how or if we would make it down the steps.It felt as if there was no floor as the wind lifted me off my feet.As we finally re ached the last flight of steps t our front door blew open.Suddenly，a three-foot-long tree branch（樹枝）flew over our heads，missing us by inches.
   By the time I reached the storeroom，the tornado had been over us for about a minute.Jimmy pushed me down to the storeroom floor but he couldn't get inside himself because of the wind.I held Jimmy's arm as the tornado blew the door open.My knees were full of glass，but I felt no pain.If I had let go，Jimmy would have flown right out of the house.
   All of a sudden，Jimmy lifted off his feet.I thought he was gone.And then everything stopped.He landed on his feet.In those first quiet moments I couldn't believe it was over.Our neighbor said the storm lasted four mjye.aiutes.In that time，four of the twelve town houses in our unit were completely destroyed.Luckily，none of us were seriously injured

  • 2．Chinese netizens who like to create and use cyber words such as "geilivable" might find a new regulation very "ungeilivable".The new regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication last week banned the use of Chinglish words created by netizens for publishing in the Chinese language.
       "Geilivable"，combining the pinyin geili （giving strength） with the English suffix （后綴） for adjectives，literally means "giving power" or "cool".Different suffixes and prefixes were then added to the word. "Hengeilivable" means "very cool"，and "ungeilivable" means "dull，not cool at all".
       Cyber language is popular among Chinese netizens，who create Chinglish words to reflect phenomenon in society.One example is "antizen"，which refers to college graduates who earn a meager salary and live in small rented apartments，like tiny and laborious ants.
       David Tool，a professor with the Beijing International Studies University，said it's very interesting to combine Chinese with English to create new words. "English is no longer mysterious to the Chinese people.They can use the language in a flexible way according to their own experiences，" Tool said.
       At the announcement of the regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication，netizens expressed their concern.
       "The administration is totally 'ungeilivable'，" said a netizen named laoda1713. "I know other netizens will shed tears with me…it is a good chance to enrich our language".
       "Language is always developing，" said a columnist，Wang Pei. "It needs to be updated to absorb foreign culture and folk wisdom. "
       But an unnamed official with the administration said that，in fact，many senior staff from news media who supported the regulation were worried that years later，the younger generation would forget how to use formal Chinese expressions.The official also pointed out that the regulation was only for formal publications in Chinese language，and it only banned Chinglish words in the publication.

    （1）The new regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication may be aimed at
    .
    A．simplifying the Chinese language

    （2）The underlined word "meager" in the third paragraph probably means
    .
    A．poor
    B．flexible
    C．high
    D．plentiful
    （3）From this passage we can infer that
    .
    A．the Chinese people like their own language only
    B．the English words are considered informal in China
    C．nobody in China will support the new regulation
    D． "geilivable" will be popular among Chinese netizens
