30、ball game, when suddenly you notice that everything goes quiet? There is an old phrase “calm before the storm”, often used in a situation-a quiet period just before a great activity or excitement. According to our own experience, we know there is actually calm before the storm. But what causes this

31、calm? And is it always calm before the storm?A period of calm happens in a particular kind of storm, the simplest kind of storm-a single-cell thunderstorm.

The rising air meets the cold dry air that has already existed in the storm clouds, thus the temperature of the warm, damp air drops, and the water vapor in it changes into tiny drops that are a precondition of rain. These drops accumulate and build on larger particles(颗粒

34、) like dust, until they grow large enough to form raindrops.This warm, damp air keeps moving upwards, but it becomes cooler and drier during its trip through cloud. When it reaches the top of the cloud, the air is squeezed out at the top. This air is sent rolling out over the big thunderclouds. From

35、 there, the air goes down. Warm and dry air is relatively stable, and once it covers a region, that air, in turn, causes the calm before a storm.Most thunderstorms, though, dont start with calm.

38、with the calm.CThe drier the air is, the bigger the storm will be.DStorm happens without air moving up and down.4、What is the passage mainly about?AA brief introduction of a peaceful storm.BA personal experience of a heavy storm.CAn explanation of the calm before a storm.DAn analysis of causes and e

Denmarkas well as being the worlds best country to live in for women with the second-happiest people and one of the best healthcare systems in Europehas the most contented babies.

50、tant in Denmark. Danish parents are much less stressed because they get good maternity and paternity leave (孕产假). The atmosphere is much calmer and, if mothers are getting more time off, that goes hand in hand with less stress, more contact, more routines and less crying.” She pauses before throwing

51、 in a final tip: “Oh, and Danish babies sleep outdoors a lot.”In Denmark, a woman is given four weeks pregnancy leave followed by 52 weeks of paid leave that can be shared between parents. And Alexander thinks there is another important reason why Danish babies cry less: breastfeeding. “Its just the
