People should be warned against using mobile phones outdoors in stormy weather because they may “be struck by lightning”, according to doctors.

Three experts have described how a teenage girl was struck by lightning while using her phone in a large London park. The girl, aged 15, recovered, but a year later, was still wheelchair-bound and found to be suffering complex physical and emotional problems.
The girl also had a perforate eardrum（打孔耳膜）on the side where she had been holding the mobile phone. She was having general recovery in Northwick Park Hospital, Middlesex.Swinda Esprit, a senior house offi­cer, said that while the brain and muscle damage was similar to that of many lightning victims—who can experience heart attacks on being struck— the ear problems were not.
She said that the damages were particularly relevant for people who might be involved in less seri­ous lightning incidents, who might other­wise recover, but would never get their full hearing back if struck while on the phone.
“We were shocked by the damage, which is why we wanted to draw attention to it,” Dr Esprit said. “A year on and she still was suffering these difficult hearing.”
They added that three other cases had been reported in newspapers in China, South Korea, and Malaysia. In the Malaysian case, a sales executive was killed by lightning while talking on his phone during a thun­derstorm near Kuala Lumpur
“All these events resulted in death,” the doctors wrote. “This rare phe­nomenon is a public health issue, and edu­cation is necessary to stress the risk.”
The Australian Lightning Protection Standard recommends that metallic objects, including cordless or mobile phones, should not be carried out­doors during thunderstorms. However, “the United States National Weather Service says on its website that both are safe to use “because there is no direct path between you and the lightening”.
Paul Taylor, of “the Met Office”, said the ear injuries were a consequence of mobile phones being metal, and not related to radio waves.
Mr. Taylor said that mobile phones should be treated as another piece of metal, similar to carrying coins or wearing rings, and people need to be warned against the possi­ble danger.
【小題1】What do we know about the teenage girl?

A．She was struck by lightning at school.
B．She completely recovered from being struck.
C．She still suffered from mental problems.
D．She had to press her ear all day
【小題2】It can be inferred that damage done by lightening while using mobile phones ______.
A．is mainly in the brain and muscle of the victims
B．can be healed quickly except for heart attacks
C．is less serious because the victims can usually recover
D．is more serious than that when one is not using a mobile phone
【小題3】 Why did doctors stress the risk about using phones outside in lightening?
A．Because more people are faced with it.
B．Because some deaths have been caused.
C．Because lightning is harmful for the brain.
D．Because a teenage girl got killed.

American cities are similar to other cities around the world: In every country, cities reflect the values of the culture. American cities are changing, just as American society is changing.

    After World War Ⅱ,  the population of most large American cities decreased; however, the population in many Sun Belt cities increased. Los Angeles and Houston are cities where population shifts( 轉(zhuǎn)移 )to and from the city reflect the changing values of American society. In the late 1940s and early 1950s, city residents (居民) became wealthier. They had more children so they needed more space. They moved out of their apartments in the city to buy their own homes. They bought houses in the suburbs( 郊區(qū) ).

    Now things are changing. The children of the people who left the cities in the 1950s are now adults. Many, unlike their parents, want to live in the cities. They continue to move to Sun Belt cities and older ones of the Northeast and Midwest. Many young professionals are moving back into the city. They prefer the city to the suburbs because their jobs are there; or they just enjoy the excitement and possi-

bilities that the city offer.

   This population shift is bringing problems as well as benefits. Countless poor people must leave their apartments in the city because the owners want to sell the buildings or make apartments for sale instead of for rent. In the 1950s, many poor people did not have enough money to move to the suburbs; now many of these same people do not have enough money to stay in the cities.

   Only a few years ago, people thought that the older American cities were dying. Some city residents now see a bright, new future. Others see only problems and conflicts. One thing is sure: many dying  cities are alive again.

60. What does the author think of cities all over the world?

    A. They are alive.                          B. They are hopeless.

    C. They are similar.                        D. They are different.

61. Why did American city residents want to live in the suburbs after World WarⅡ ?

     A. Because older American cities were dying.

     B. Because they were richer and needed more space.

     C. Because cities contained the worst parts of society.

     D. Because they could hardly afford to live in the city.

62. According to the 4th paragraph, a great many poor people in American cities          。

    A. are faced with housing problems           B. are forced to move to the suburbs

    C. want to sell their buildings                D. need more money for daily expenses

63. We can conclude from the text that         。

    A. American cities are changing for the worse

    B. people have different views on American cities

    C. many people are now moving from American cities

    D. the population is decreasing in older American cities
