一、阅读理解B篇
[雷电天气安全指南]The wind begins to blow, the sky gets dark and suddenly you hear it — the sound of thunder.That's a sign that possible danger is on the way.In fact, it's likely within 10 miles from you.
You'd better pay attention to that sound, because where there is thunder there is lightning, and lightning can kill or hurt in ways you would least expect. 1 That includes when you are in the shower or even washing the dishes.
“Since lightning can travel through pipes(管道), it is best to avoid all water during a thunderstorm.Do not shower, bath, wash the dishes, or wash your hands,” an expert said.
“Count the number of seconds between lightning and the sound of thunder, and then divide by 5. 2 Every five seconds equals(相当于) 1 mile,” the expert said.If it's 15 seconds between the two, that means lightning is 3 miles away from you.
Most deaths and injuries happen when people are outside, especially during summer months in the afternoon and evening.About 180 people are hurt 3 by lightning every year, and 10% of people hit by lightning die.Those who work outside are at the highest risk. 4
“If you are caught outside, don't lie on the ground.Get inside a safe place,” the expert said.“Avoid anything that will increase your risk of being hit by lightning, such as being near or under tall trees.”
( C )1.In what ways can lightning harm people?
A.By causing earthquakes.
B.By knocking down buildings.
C.By killing or hurting them unexpectedly.
D.By creating strong winds.
C
( D )2.How far is the lightning if we hear thunder 25 seconds after lightning?
A.1 mile away from us. B.2 miles away from us.
C.3 miles away from us. D.5 miles away from us.
2.D 数字计算题。根据第四段“Count the number of seconds... and then divide by 5.Every five seconds equals 1 mile”可知,25秒除以5,即闪电距我们有5英里。
D
( B )3.What does the underlined word “injuries” mean in Paragraph 5?
A.Illnesses. B.Harm.
C.Warnings. D.Punishment.
3.B 词义猜测题。根据下一句“About 180 people are hurt by lightning every year...”可推出,injuries的意思为伤害,故选B。
B
( A )4.Who is at the highest risk of being hit by lightning?
A.Bob, who is climbing mountains.
B.Lucy, who is listening to music in bed.
C.Jason, who is running in the gym.
D.Mia, who is reading in the library.
A
( B )5.What is the passage mainly talking about?
A.The dangers of thunder.
B.How to keep safe in lightning.
C.Why we can't take a shower during a thunderstorm.
D.The relationship between thunder and lightning.
5.B 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了闪电的危害及如何在雷电天气中保持安全,因此B选项最能概括全文。
短文大意:本文主要介绍了一些打雷和闪电的知识以及如何在雷电天气保持安全。
B

Keep Safe on the Road
It's important for us to keep safe on the road.
There are many buses, cars and people on the road.The roads are very busy.If we don't take care, we will be in danger.
In order to keep ourselves safe, we must obey the traffic rules.How can we do that? First, walk or ride on the right side of the road.Make sure it's safe when you cross the road.Second, never play on the road.It's dangerous because we may not notice the cars when we play.Third, keep in order when you take a bus.If we do these, we'll be safe on the road.
If everyone can obey the traffic rules, there will be no traffic accidents and nobody will get hurt on the road.Let's take action from now on!
