W: Sure, but they usually melt too fast for me to get a close look. Why do you ask?
M: I'm just curious. I was reading an article about the formation of snowflakes, and I real- ized that I had never paid much attention to them before.
W: WeI1, there is a big variety, isn't there?
M: Yes, but they all have one of the three basic forms: hexagonal columns, thin hexagonal plates and the blanching starshaped form.
W: I wonder why are forms different, maybe because ice starts to form. on dust particles with different shape.
M: Well, I thought it might have something, to do with the water saturation of the air. But we're both wrong. The author of this article did extensive research and concluded that. the shapes of snow crystals largely controlled by the temperature of the air. For example, the featherly star-shaped snowflake that everyone thinks is typical occurs only at a specific temperature.
W: Doesn't the relative humidity has anything to do with the shapes?
M: Apparently not. The effect of super saturation is simply to alter the growth rate. The greater the saturation, the faster the snowflakes form.
W: Why, next time when it snows. I'll make a point of taking a close look.
What are the people discussing?
A.Whether or not snowflakes can be analyzed.
B.How snowflakes are formed.
C.What causes a snowstorm.

Directions: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
Like many of my generation, I have a weakness for hero worship. At some point, however, we all begin to question our heroes and our need for them. This leads us to ask: What is a hero?
Despite immense differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of Characteristics that instruct and inspire people.
A hero does something worth talking about. A hero has a story of adventure to tell and a community who will listen. But a hero goes beyond mere fame.
Heroes serve powers or principles larger than themselves. Like high- voltage transformers, hem take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be used by ordinary people.
The hero lives a life worthy of imitation. Those who imitate a genuine hero experience life with new depth, enthusiasm, and meaning. A sure test for would - be heroes is what or whom do they serve? What are they willing to live and die for? If the answer or evidence suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes. Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous, but who would claim that their fans find life more abundant?
Heroes are catalysts (催化剂)for change. They have a vision from the mountaintop. They have the skill and the charm to move the masses. They create new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of the British Empire. Without Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr. , we might still have segregated (隔离的)buses, restaurants, and parks. It may be possible for largescale change to occur without leaders with magnetic personalities, but the pace of change would be slow, the vision uncertain, and the committee meetings endless.
Although heroes may come from different cultures, they ______.
A.generally possess certain inspiring characteristics
B.probably share some weaknesses of ordinary people
C.are often influenced by previous generations
D.all unknowingly attract a large number of fans
A.they have a vision from the mountaintop
B.they have warm feelings and emotions
C.they can serve as concrete examples of noble principles
D.they can make people feel stronger and more confident
