  Now satellites are helping to forecast (預(yù)測(cè)) the weather. They are in space,and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere (大氣) ,because this is where the weather forms (形成) .They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists (氣象學(xué)家) can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures,the scientists can often say how the weather will change.

 Today,nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures,the meteorologists compare (t匕較) them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change,too. In their next weather forecast,the meteorologists can say this.

  So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented,the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon,perhaps,they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead (提前) .

  Knowing about yourself means not only that you find what you are good at and what you like,it also means discovering what you are not good at and what you don't like. Both help you to see your aim in life.

  Although most students would be unhappy if they found that they had failed an advanced math course,they have actually learned a great deal about themselves. They know they should not become engineers or physical scientist,and that they should not be good at accounting work. So failing can help a student to lead a much happier life he or she draws the right conclusion from the failing. They may then decide on their aim and choose the kind of work they would like to do.

  It is impossible to decide whether or not you like something until you have tried it. If you decide that you would like to play the violin,you need to take more than one lesson before you can know whether you have any interest or ability.

  It's not enough to want to be a violinist. You also have to like the hard and long training before you become one. If you would enjoy being a great violinist but hate the work,forget it.

  It's a good plan to try as many ideas as possible when you are still young. And then you will come to a wise decision.

   A. you know what you are good at

   B. advanced math courses help you to know yourselves

   C. success is more helpful

   D. when one is unhappy he gets to know himself better

(   ) 13. Failing can turn into something good         .

   A. if you have aim in life and get the job you wish to have

   B. if you lead a happier life

   C. if your decision is right

   D. if you learn something from it

(   ) 14. The example of "playing the violin" in paragraph 3 and 4 implies that         .

   A. if you don't like music,don't practise the violin

   B. it takes more than one lesson to learn to play the violin

   C. you can decide only after you have tried
