A

   Residents along Australia’s east coast awoke in the morning to an orange sky as winds swept millions of tons of red dust from the country’s inland and dumped it on Sydney．

    Tanya Ferguson，living in Sydney，saw that the room was completely orange．She thought there was a bush fire．But when she went outside，the entire city was covered in a film of orange dust．

  “It was like being in the outback(澳大利亞內陸)，but it was right here in the city，”she said On that day，a big dust storm swept through Sydney．It covered the city in orange dust for about eight hours，making landmarks such as the Sydney Opera House and Harbor Bridge invisible．

    The storm affected the transportation system．Flights were delayed．Roads were busy as drivers struggled in the difficult conditions．Children and the elderly were told to stay indoors until the dust had cleared．Later strong winds blew it out to the sea and up the coast．

      No one was hurt in the storm，though health officials answered hundreds of calls from

people with breathing difficulties．Emergency services responded to hundreds of calls about

tree branches brought down by strong winds．

    Dust storms are common in the Australian outback，where the land is arid(貧瘠的)．But the storms rarely reach the coastal regions．

Officials said it was the worst dust storm of the past 70 years．Air pollution levels were

15，500 micrograms of pollutants per cubic meter．

  “On a clear day the pollutants are around 10—20 micrograms per cubic meter，”said Chris

Eiser of the NSW department of the environment．

    Experts said that dry conditions in the outback and strong winds caused the sandstorm．

    “Ten very dry years over inland southern Australia and very strong winds have combined to produce the storm，”said Nigel Tapper，an environmental scientist at Monash University， Australia．

56．The article is about             ．

      B．The level of air pollution was very high due to the dust storm．

      C．People called the emergency service because they had got lost．

      D．Children stayed indoors for the schooling had been cancelled．

58．From the passage we can see that               ．

      A．Tanya Ferguson lives in the Australian outback at the moment

      B．a bush fire may have brought the orange dust along the coast

      C．this terrible sandstorm lasted about 24 hours after it hit the city

      D．Sydney’s landmarks were out of sight when the storm happened

59．The tone of the article is                ．

    Men and women who serve in the United States armed forces are proud of the names like

 doughboy and GI Joe．The names have come from the American Civil War．

    After the American Civil War in the eighteen sixties，a writer in a publication called Beadle’s Monthly used the word doughboy to describe Civil War soldiers．But word expert Charles Funk says that early writer could not explain where the name started．

    About twenty years later，someone did explain．She was the wife of the famous American general George Custer．Elizabeth Custer wrote that a doughboy was a sweet food served to Navy men on ships．She also said the name was given to the large buttons on the clothes of soldiers．For example，the soldiers enjoyed their new GI very much．They looked smart and felt comfortable．Elizabeth Custer believed the name changed over time to mean the soldiers themselves．

    By World War Two，soldiers were called other names．The one most often heard was GI, or GI Joe．Most people say the letters GI were a short way to say general issue or government issue．The name came to mean several things．It could mean the soldier himself．It could mean things given to soldiers when they joined the military such as weapons，equipment or clothes．And，for some reason，it could mean to organize，or clean．Soldiers often say，“We GI’d the place．”And when an area looks good．soldiers may say the area is“GI．”Strangely，though，GI can also mean poor work，a job badly done．

    Some students of military words have another explanation of GI．They say that instead of government issue or general issue，GI came from the words galvanized iron．The American soldier was said to be like galvanized iron，a material produced for special strength．The Dictionary of Soldier Talk says GI was used for the words galvanized iron in a publication about the vehicles of the early twentieth century．

    Today，a doughboy or GI may be called a grunt(咕噥聲)．Nobody is sure of the exact beginning of the word．But，the best idea probably is that the name comes from the sound that troops make when ordered to march long distances carrying heavy equipment．

68．Originally the word“doughboy”referred to              ．

    A．the American Civil War              B．a word expert in the 1860s

    C．the American Civil War writers      D．a sweet food and the buttons

69．It was           who found how the name doughboy came about．

      A．Elizabeth Custer                         B．George Custer

   C．Charles Funk                                 D．Beadle's Monthly

70．What does GI mean in the example in Paragraph 4 ?

      A．Clothes．                                B．Weapons．                

    C．Government issues．                    D．Vehicles．

71．Which of the following statements is TRUE?

    A．Navy soldiers used to 1ike sweet food a lot in the wars．

    B．Much noise was made when soldiers carried equipment．

    C．Galvanized iron was a symbol of the soldiers．

    D．A US soldier can be called a doughboy，a GI or a grunt．
