Mike hated the half hour before his older brother got home from high school. The house was too quiet, and he was alone. He didnt like feeling that way.

One day, he did what he usually did during that time. He turned on the television, loud. Their parents had a strange rule about not eating alone, so he had to wait until Bill got home, even when he was hungry. He wasnt allowed to cook either, so any food he put out had to be cold.

The phone rang. It was his mother. “Is Bill home yet?” She sounded worried. The store where she worked was almost an hour away. “Get into the basement (地下室), now!” she said. Mike could tell she was trying to sound calm.

“Whats the matter, Mom? You know Bill wont be home for another twenty minutes.” Bill had a car now because he was 17 and no longer rode on the school bus.

“Get down to...” Then the line got cut off. Mike ran to the window. Even though it was only four oclock, the sky had turned black. Hail (冰雹) hit the roof and the front yard. Every few seconds, lighting lit up the sky. In one flash, by the light of the lighting, he saw a tornado (龙卷风). It was heading straight for their house. Then he saw Bills car, about a half mile away. He was driving fast. “Hurry up, Bill!” Mike whispered to himself. He looked back at the tornado, then again towards the road. Bill was almost at the driveway. Mike opened the door. The strong wind battered (拍打) against the side of the house.

Bill rushed in. Without talking, the two of them headed for the basement. They knew what to do. They stayed together and listened to the roar above their heads. It seemed to last forever.

( )61. Mike usually felt _______ during the 30 minutes before his brother got home.

A. lonely B. worried C. happy D. calm

( )62. Mikes mother called from work to _______.

A. make sure Mike is at home B. tell Mike not to cook by himself

C. check whether Bill went to school D. warn Mike of the coming tornado

( )63. Before the tornado came, _______.

A. the black sky turned bright B. hail hit the roof and the ground

C. cars were blown into the air D. the lights in the house went out

( )64. The brothers were _______ when the tornado passed their house.

Suppose youre in a rush, feeling tired, not paying attention to your screen, and you send an e-mail that could get you in trouble.

Realisation (實现;领悟) will probably set in seconds after youve clicked “send”. You freeze in horror and burn with shame.

What to do? Here are four common e-mail accidents, and how to recover.

Clicking “send” too soon

Dont waste your time trying to find out if the receiver has read it yet. Write another e-mail as swiftly as you can and send it with a brief title explaining that this is the correct one and the one before should be ignored (忽视).

Writing the wrong time

The sooner you notice the better. Respond quickly and briefly, apologizing (道歉) for your mistake. Keep the tone measured: dont make it too lightly, as people can be angry, especially if your mistake suggests a misunderstanding (误解) of their culture (i.e. incorrect ordering of Chinese names).

Clicking “reply all” unintentionally (無意地)

You tell to the whole company by accident what menu choices you would prefer at the staff Christmas dinner, or what holiday youd like to take. In this situation, the best method is to send a quick, light-hearted apology (道歉) to explain. But it can quickly rise to something worse, when everyone starts hitting “reply all” to join in a long and unpleasant conversation. In this situation, step away from your keyboard to allow everyone to calm down.

Sending a rude message to its subject

The most serious e-mail mistake is usually made in anger. You write an unkind message about someone, intending to send it to a friend, but send it to the person youre discussing by mistake. In that case, ask to speak in person as soon as possible and say sorry. Explain your rude words calmly—see it as an opportunity to clear up any difficulties you may have with this person.

( )66. After realising an e-mail accident, you are likely to feel _______.

A. excited B. tired C. awful D. funny

( )67. If you have written the wrong name in an e-mail, it is best to _______.

A. apologise in a serious manner

B. tell the receiver to ignore the error

C. learn to write the name correctly

D. send a short notice to everyone

( )68. You should _______ when an unpleasant conversation is started by your “reply all” e-mail.

A. try offering other choices B. avoid taking part in further discussion

C. meet other staff members D. make a light-hearted apology

( )69. You should deal with the problem caused by a rude e-mail _______.

A. by promising not to be rude again

B. by seeking support from the receivers friends

C. by asking the receiver to control his anger

D. by talking to the receiver face to face

( )70. The passage is mainly about _______.

A. sending e-mail politely B. reducing e-mail mistakes

C. dealing with e-mail accidents D. improving e-mail writing
