2 . In America, if you see a group of students wearing crazy hats or summer T-shirts in the middle of winter, don’t be surprised. They may be celebrating their School Spirit Week (校园精神周).
The School Spirit Week is a time for students to show their pride in their school. This is not a break, but the festival. It can be held during any week of the year. The celebration works with students of all ages, from elementary to high School, as long as you keep the themes (主题) simple for the younger kids.
Spirit weeks often have a central theme that is followed throughout the week. During the week, students wear school colors and decorate the classrooms. Every day, there is a different theme. This is also students’ favorite part. They take part in different competitions and have fun together.
Spirit weeks often encourage students to wear fun and fashion clothes, with different outfits for each day of the week. Monday might be funny hat day, followed by Tuesday’s Hawaiian shirt day and Wednesday’s silly T-shirt day. Thursday could be pajama (睡衣) day, followed by Friday’s school color day.
There are also lots of other activities which the students can take part in on School Spirit Weeks. Do you like to have School Spirit Weeks?

3 . A man went to a fast-food restaurant to buy his lunch. “Hi,” a worker said. “May I help you?” “I'd like a hamburger, large chips, and a coke,” the man said.
“Anything else?” the worker as asked. “No,” the man answered, “That’s it.”
“Is that for here or to go?” The worker asked. “To go,” the man said.
The worker put the man's lunch in a bag. The man took out his money and paid for his lunch. “Thank you,” the worker said. “Have a nice day.”
The man took the bag and walked to a park. He sat down and opened the bag. He was surprised. There was no hamburger in the bag. There were no chips. There was no coke. There was only money in the bag — a lot of money! The man counted the money. Two thousand dollars! Why was the money in the bag? Where was the man's lunch?
The manager of the fast-food restaurant needed to go to the bank. He put two thousand dollars in an envelope (信封). He put the envelope in a bag and put the bag down. The worker gave the manager’s bag to the man by mistake. So the manager had a hamburger, chips and a coke, and the man had two thousand dollars.

8 . Tsunamis, damaged buildings, and damaged power lines are just a few of the dangers you might face after an earthquake.
Go inland and seek higher ground.
In some cases, earthquakes can cause tsunamis in areas along the coast. These can happen minutes to hours after a strong earthquake.
Do not enter a damaged building.
Earthquakes can damage buildings and make them unsafe. Wait until local authorities tell you it is safe to go inside. Leave your home or building if you hear shifting or unusual noises.
Inspect your home for damage.
Carefully check your home’s walls, floors, doors, windows, and staircases for damage.
During and after an earthquake, it is natural to experience different and strong emotions. Coping with these feelings and getting help when you need it will help recover from a disaster. Conneet with family, friends, and others in your community. Take care of yourself and each other and know when and how to seek help.
A.Stay connected and informed. |
B.Take care of your emotional health. |
C.Strange noises could mean the building is about to fall. |
D.Keep a fire extinguisher handy, and make sure your family knows how to use it. |
E.If you see structural damage, you may need to relocate to a shelter or another safe location. |
F.If you hear an official tsunami warning or notice signs of a tsunami, evacuate immediately. |
G.Keep yourself safe after an earthquake by carefully following the recommendations below. |

10 . “Based on long-term earthquake records dating back to nearly 1900, the expected annual occurrence of significant comprises roughly 16 events. The 2023 Hatay earthquakes were among the most severe in recent history.” a researcher Ozer said in 2023.
The Hatay region of Turkey is located at the boundary between the Anatolian and Arabian plates. This region experienced a severe earthquake on February 6th, 2023, impacting various aspects of its buildings and cultural heritage. Over 50,000 people died, and the cost was more 104 billion dollars.
Following the significant destruction, a study conducted by Nizar Polat published in Springer Nature in 2023 examines the deformation (变形) of the Earth’s surface in several cities in the Hatay region. The study not only employs Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) (无人机) to get high-resolution 3D modeling (高分辨率的三维建模), but also uses aerial imagery (航空图像) to analyze surface deformations and cracks in the bedrock. Results show 7 cracks ranging from 24.11 to 497.69 m in length.
Besides, analysis within the subsidence (沉降区) area is also used to reveal the extent of physical deformations. Two subsidence areas are identified, measuring 23,060.8m2 and 13,954.2m2 respectively, with height changes of up to 20m. The accuracy of the photos are proved with a Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) (均方根误差) of 4.6cm, indicating high accuracy.
This study reveals the value of drone-based high-resolution 3D modeling in revealing the earthquake-caused deformation and landscape changes. These findings have greatly improved the understanding of earthquake destructions in the Hatay area and provided more insights to future research and reduce natural disasters.
