The Kingdome in Seattle was destroyed on March 26，2000．It was taken down to make room for a new stadium．The blast(爆破)from the falling building caused the earth to shake as if an earthquake had happened．

Scientists placed more than 200 earthquake recorders in the earth to measure the movement．They found which parts of the city shook the most．This information helped them know which parts of the city would be damaged in a real earthquake at an early time．

      A real earthquake happened on February 28, 2001 in Seattle．The Nisqually earthquake was 6.8 on the Richter scale(里氏)．It damaged the same parts of Seattle that scientists had predicted from the pulling down of the Kingdome．It was a plate quake．It started deep in the earth, 37 miles below the surface on the Juan de Fuca Plate．Sometimes，huge plates under the earth cause earthquakes when the plates move against each other suddenly．

      Scientists have learned that deep earthquakes have very few aftershocks．The Nisqually earthquake had only 4 ones．Another earthquake in California that was close to the surface had over 120 aftershocks．Scientists do not know why the deep earthquakes have fewer aftershocks．

      Scientists plan to blast in the ground near Seattle with the purpose of testing the plate．The shockwaves from the blast will jump off the plate and give them all idea of where the plate is and how it is moving．This will give them more information in case another real earthquake hits the area．

1．What will happen after a deep earthquake according to the scientists?

A．There will be very few aftershocks       

B．There will be many aftershocks．

C．There will be little damage．

A．deep earthquakes        

B．shockwave earthquakes

C．earthquakes more than 6.8 Richter scale

D．earthquakes close to the surface

3．By studying the blast in the ground near Seattle, scientists hope to        

      A．destroy the Kingdome

      B．find out how many plates there are in the ground there

D．know which places are likely to have the most damage

Some children are natural-born bosses. They have a strong need to make decisions, manage their environment, and lead rather than follow. Stephen Jackson, a Year One student, “operates under the theory of what’s mine is mine and what’s yours is mine,” says his mother. “The other day I bought two new Star Wars light sabers（剑）. Later, I saw Stephen with the two new ones while his brother was using the beat-up ones. ”

“Examine the extended family, and you’ll probably find a bossy grandparent, aunt, uncle or cousin in every generation. It’s an inheritable trait,” says Russell Barkley, a professor at the Medical University of South Carolina. Other children who may not be particularly bossy can gradually gain dominance（支配地位）when they sense their parents are weak, hesitant, or in disagreement with each other.

Whether it’s inborn nature or developed character at work, too much control in the hands of the young isn’t healthy for children or the family, Fear is at the root of a lot of bossy behavior, says family psychologist John Taylor. Children, he says in his book From Defiance to Cooperation, “have secret feelings of weakness” and “a desire to feel safe. ” It’s the parents’ role to provide that protection.

When a “boss child” doesn’t learn limits at home, the stage is set for a host of troubles outside the family. The overly willful and unbending child may have trouble obeying teachers or coaches, for example, or trouble keeping friends. It can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways.

“I see more and more parents giving up their power,” says Barkley, who has studied bossy behavior for more than 30 years. “They bend too far because they don’t want to be as strict as their own parents were. But they also feel less confident about their parenting skills. Their kids, in turn, feel more anxious. ”

1. Bossy children like Stephen Jackson_______.

A. make good decisions                      B. show self-centeredness

C. lack care from others                     D. have little sense of fear

2. The underlined phrase “inheritable trait” in Paragraph 2 means_______.

A. inborn nature                                 B. developed character

C. accepted theory                             D. particular environment

3. The study on bossy behavior implies that parents_______.

A. should give more power to their children

B. should be strict with their children

C. should not be so anxious about their children

D. should not set limits for their children

4. Bossy children may probably become_______.

A. relaxed              B. skillful               A. hesitant             D. lonely

5. What is the passage mainly about?

A. How bossy behavior can be controlled.

B. How we can get along with bossy children.

C. What leads to children’s bossy behavior.

D. What effect bossy behavior brings about.
