Once there was a wise King. He had two sons. He appointed aminent scholars to teach

your room completely with anything you wish. It can be anything! But there should not be

Early one morning a hungry Wolf was prowling around a cottage at the edge of a village,
when he heard a child crying in the house. Then he heard the Mother’s voice say:
“Hush, child, hush! Stop your crying, or I will give you to the Wolf!”
Surprised but delighted at the prospect of so delicious a meal, the Wolf settled down under
an open window, expecting every moment to have the child handed out to him. But though
the little one continued to fret, the Wolf waited all day in vain. Then, toward nightfall, he
heard the Mother’s voice again as she sat down near the window to sing and rock her baby
to sleep.
“There, child, there! The Wolf shall not get you. No, no! Daddy is watching and Daddy

Cows are very useful to mankind, in supplying them with milk from which both
butter and cheese are made.
Their young ones are called calves, and the flesh of calves is veal. A good Cow
will give about fifteen or more quarts of milk a day, but much depends upon the
quality of the pasture she feeds upon.
Her age is told by her horns; after she is three years old a ring is formed every
year at the root of the horn, so that by counting the number of circles, her age may
be exactly known.
Cows are sometimes prettily marked with black, brown, and yellow spots, and,
as they lie scattered about a green meadow, add much to the charms of a
landscape

A tornado is a dark funnel-shaped cloud made up of violently rotating winds that can reach
speeds of up to 300 m.p.h. The diameter of a tornado can vary between a few feet and a mile,
and its track can extend from less than a mile to several hundred miles. Tornadoes generally
travel in a northeast direction (depending on the prevailing winds) at speeds ranging from 20-60
m.p.h.
Tornadoes are most often created by giant thunderstorms known as "supercells." These
powerful, highly organized storms form when warm, moist air along the ground rushes upward,
meeting cooler, drier air. As the rising warm air cools, the moisture it carries condenses,
forming a massive thundercloud, sometimes growing to as much as 50,000 ft. in height.
Variable winds at different levels of the atmosphere feed the updraft and cause the formation of
the tornado's characteristic funnel shape.
The conditions that lead to the formation of tornadoes are most often met in the central and
southern U.S., where warm, humid air from the Gulf of Mexico collides with cool, dry air from
the Rockies and Canada. This area, dubbed "tornado alley," extends roughly from the Rocky
Mountains to the Appalachians, and from Iowa and Nebraska to the Gulf of Mexico. Tornadoes
can also occur elsewhere, though, including all U.S. states, Europe, Asia, and Australia.
 19. What is the text mainly about?
A. The scale of tornado.
B. The cause of tornado.
C. The classification of tornado.
D. The general description of tornado.

20. Tornado’s specific form happens when the ….

A. structured of supercells and the storm move upward
B. rising warm air cools, the moisture it carries condenses
C. rushing upward storms along the ground meet cooler, drier air
D. inconstant moving air of the atmosphere nourishes the gas moving upward.
