TOKYO(AP) - An express train traveling through strong winter winds derailed (出轨) in northern Japan, killing four people and injuring more than 30, officials said Monday.

The injuries of the survivors did not appear to be life-threatening，Yamagata police spokesman Yoshikatsu Oe said. It was unclear how many passengers were on the train，but Oe said most of the injured were in the first two cars.

The dead included two men and two women, and rescuers planned to lift the wreckage(残骸)later in the day to see if any other passengers remained beneath，officials said.

Transport Ministry official Hiromi Mishima said it was not known what caused the derailment and officials were assessing the extent(程度)of the damage. Railway operator JR East Co.

Blood carries oxygen, which fuels brain cells. 29. Scientific studies about gum chewing show that .

If you walk slowly through downtown Helsinki during the day, taking in the splendid 19 th century buildings, white boats and noise of passing trams (有轨电车), you will start to understand why it is called a city of two colors: white and blue.

The sea is always present in Helsinki. When you take a walk over the great open space of the central square, you will hear seabirds screaming. When you take the tram, suddenly and unexpectedly, you are faced with a calm, shining blue sea. You may notice that people in Helsinki do not rush about as in other cities. Instead, they walk along the roads, politely letting other people by.

A usual way to see Helsinki for the first time is to start out by the boats. You will walk by the elderly women selling fish and vegetables in the market square and find yourself in front of a beautiful park. You may enjoy a pleasant walk in the park for a few hours and then take the tram. Trams are the perfect way to get around in Helsinki. Watching the old houses, parks, theatres, churches, shops, restaurants and people in the streets, you may have

a slightly sad film feeling to it.

The pale summer nights are another wonder in the city. Following the waterfront of the city after sunset, you couldn't help stopping and listening to the sweet silence, interrupted only by the screaming seabirds and leaving fishing boats.

However, in some way. Helsinki is also the most modern city in northern Europe. You will surely want to visit the white Glass Palace, the modern art museum, and all those extremely popular cafes and design stores. 33. Helsinki is called a city of two colors mainly because of the colors of its ________. A. 19th century buildings, boats and parks

B. 19th century buildings, boats and seabirds C. old houses, parks and trams

D. old buildings, boats and the sea 34. The best way to see most of Helsinki is to go ________. A. by boat

B. by bus

C. by tram

D. on foot 35. This passage is most likely to be found in _________. A. a story-book

B. a geography textbook

C. a research report

D. a travel magazine

One possible version:

Learning methods are very important to every student. Usually a good learner gets twice the result with half the effort. A poor learner also wishes to improve himself but doesn't know how.

To be a good learner, one should have a proper study plan and be good at thinking and solving problems with the help of reference books, such as a dictionary. One also has to sum up what has been learned, seize every chance to learn and make use of all kinds of learning resources. Besides, one is supposed to be good both at work and rest.

Remember that diligence and good methods are the key to success.
