     In some areas of world the weather is very changeable and this plays an
    important part in the daily lives of the people, 1 eariest time, men have
    observed the sky , the wind, and the atmosphere, 2 a variety of other weather
    signs, so as to make weather 3 which have not been accurate. Now there are
    government bureaus(局機關(guān)) in many places 4 study weather conditions very
    carefully. They can use a lot of scientific equipment to help them make their
    forecast. They have special balloons, ships and airplanes to help them increase
    their accuracy, and they make 5 of radar, satellites and computers to gather
    necessary 6 .
    Today, accurate weather forecasts are helping millions of people everywhere

    7、將下面的短文譯成漢語。
    Why is a space between the rails of a railaway line where one piece joints
    the next? The space is left to let the rail expand when it gets hot. On a hot
    day, the metal expands and if it were not allowed to do this, the rails would
    bend out of shape. This has caused railway accidents in the past.
    Although solids expand much less than liquid or gases, the small increase
    can add up to a lot, when there are long lengths of rail. For example, the
    difference in length of rail, in summer and winter, over the distance between
    London and Edinburgh, is about 1/4 mile.
    We have to keep in our minds and not forget the expansion of metal when we
    build a very long metal bridge too. So spaces are left in the places where the
    metal is joined.
    When a solid gets colder, it decreases in volume. We can make use of the fact
    that solids expand when they are heated, and decrease in volume when they get
    colder; and that they do it at different speeds.
