Too hard to remember.

Oh! NO!
There are still lots of questions
To be answered!

Are you tired of the puzzles you usually do? Sudoku is a new choice. Sudoku consists of the Japanese characters Su (meaning “number”) and Doku (meaning “single”), but it was not invented in Japan. It was created by Howard Garnes in 1979. The puzzle was first introduced into Japan by Nikoli Puzzle Company in 1984. In 1986, Kaji Maki, the president of Nikoli made the rules strict and clear. Soon in the same year Sudoku became popular in Japan. In November 2004, The Times, a British newspaper, first printed it in the newspaper. It became an international hit in 2005. Now Sudoku becomes very popular all over the world.
The rule of the puzzle is to fill in the grids (格子) so that every row, every line and every 3×3 box has the numbers 1 to 9. Here is a Sudoku. Please relax and enjoy. It’s fun!

In the Charles E.Johnson Elementary School in New York, there is a special radio. It gives people warnings（警报）about bad weather.
One day, there came a sound from the radio. This sound brought the piece of news:a heavy storm was coming. William Tomic, principal（校长）of the school, asked teachers to bring children indoors and put them in a safe place at once.
Minutes later, the storm came. However, because of the warning of the radio and the quick work of the principal, no one was hurt.
“The radio really did work very well. （我们对它的工作感到很高兴），”William Tomic said. “The parents were as well.”
The U.S. government hopes there will be more such success stories. It plans to give this kind of radios to all 97,000 public schools in the country.
Every year, more than 10,000 big thunderstorms, 2,500 floods, 1,000 tornadoes（龙卷风）and some hurricanes（飓风）take place in the U.S., so the waming radios are very useful.They not only give people warnings about bad weather,but also give warnings about other dangerous things.
（一）请根据短文内容，简要回答下列问题.What does the special radio give people?
Why was no one hurt in the school in the storm?
（二）请根据短文中所给汉语完成句子。
（三）请把短文中划线的句子译成汉语。
（四）请给短文拟一个恰当的英文标题。
Gao Wenqi, 49, owner of a restaurant in Xi'an, Shanxi, started to offer a new service on April 13, 2013: suspended meals (待用快餐). Now many restaurants in China, such as in Henan,Chongqing and Yunnan, have joined the program.
You can pay 10 yuan for a meal, which should be sold at 16, and leave it at the restaurant. Then other people in need, such as the disabled（残疾人）， the poor elderly or homeless children,can have it without paying.
This idea comes from the cafes (咖啡馆) in Naples, Italy. It's a tradition that someone there pays in advance for an extra (额外的) cup or two. Then another coffee-drinker can take them for free.
“The program is meaningful. It offers help with dignity（尊严），” said Gao to Xinhua. However, people are worried that someone who is able to pay would also ask for the suspended meals, so there should be rules for this program.According to the passage, this program may possibly take place .

| A．students | B．workers | C．people in need | D．the rich |
The underlined phrase “in advance” in the third paragraph means “_ _” in Chinese.
| A．滞后 | B．预先 | C．优先 | D．胜过 |
It's said that the idea of “suspended meals” comes from .
| A．Italy | B．the U.S. | C．Canada | D．China |

| A．Someone who is unable to pay can ask for the suspended meals. |
| B．The program is meaningful and it offers help with dignity. |
| C．Gao Wenqi's restaurant joined the program on April 13， 2013. |
