Tonga is an island nation in the South Pacific ocean, home to about 105, 000 people. The volcano, known as Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai, is located off the coast of Tonga. Even though the volcano was underwater, it sent lots of gas, ash（灰烬）and stones 12 miles into the sky. It took a while to get reports from Tonga because the event knocked out internet service in the area. Like most island nations, Tonga gets its internet through a cable that runs deep under the sea. Experts say it’s not yet clear whether the cable was broken during the event or simply lost power. A four-foot wave hit the capital, Nuku’alofa. People in low-lying areas were forced to go to higher ground. There are reports of serious damage in Tonga. Many houses near the shore were flooded. At present, the biggest danger is probably from the smoke and ash from the volcano that has covered much of Tonga. The ash makes the air dangerous to breathe, and it is believed to have polluted many sources of drinking water. New Zealand and Australia have sent teams to Tonga to help out. Some of the teams will use airplanes to get a better idea of the damage across the island nation. The large cloud of ash high above Tonga is making it impossible to get a good picture of what’s happening in the area from high in the air. 11. What information can we get about the volcano in paragraph 1? A. It is underwater and in an island nation. B. More than 105, 000 people live next to it. C. It’s quite far away from the South Pacific Ocean. D. It’s under the ocean and sent stones into the water. 12. What does the underlined expression “knocked out” mean? A. changed B. improved C. destroyed D. brought 13. Which of the following can we infer（推断）from paragraph 3? A. The ash from the volcano has covered much of Tonga. B. The ash makes the air in Tonga dangerous to breathe. C. Houses in low-lying areas were completely damaged. D. People in Tonga will be short of clean drinking water. 14. Why is it hard for the teams to know exactly what’s happening in the area? A. There is still a lot of ash in the air above Tonga. B. The airplanes cannot take off because of the ash. C. The teams don’t know how to take a good picture. D. The clouds in the sky stop the teams seeing clearly. 15. Where can we probably read this article? A. In a comic book. B. In a newspaper. C. In a science fiction. D. In a fashion magazine. 【答案】11. A 12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了南太平洋汤加的一座水下火山爆发造成的危害以及其他国家对它的帮助。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据“On Saturday, an underwater volcano（火山）in Tonga erupted（爆发）in the South Pacific Ocean. Tonga is an island nation in the South Pacific ocean”可知，从第一段我们可以了解到它位于水下，是一个岛国，故选A。 【12题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“It took a while to get reports from Tonga because the event knocked out internet service in the area”可知，因为该地区的互联网服务受到了影响，所以汤加花了一段时间才收到报道，故knocked out与destroyed同义，故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据“it is believed to have polluted many sources of drinking water”可知，它污染了许多饮用水来源，由此可推断汤加的人们将缺乏干净的饮用水，故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The large cloud of ash high above Tonga is making it impossible to get a good picture of what’s happening in the area from high in the air.”可知，汤加上空巨大的火山灰云使人们无法从高空对该地区发生的事情进行清晰的拍摄，故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。本文主要介绍了南太平洋汤加的一座水下火山爆发造成的危害以及其他国家对它的帮助，可能来自报纸，故选B。 D Learning to play an instrument can be one of the most exciting ways to spend your free time.

Tonga is an island nation in the South Pacific ocean, home to about 105, 000 people. The volcano, known as Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai, is located off the coast of Tonga. Even though the volcano was underwater, it sent lots of gas, ash（灰烬）and stones 12 miles into the sky. It took a while to get reports from Tonga because the event knocked out internet service in the area. Like most island nations, Tonga gets its internet through a cable that runs deep under the sea. Experts say it’s not yet clear whether the cable was broken during the event or simply lost power. A four-foot wave hit the capital, Nuku’alofa. People in low-lying areas were forced to go to higher ground. There are reports of serious damage in Tonga. Many houses near the shore were flooded. At present, the biggest danger is probably from the smoke and ash from the volcano that has covered much of Tonga. The ash makes the air dangerous to breathe, and it is believed to have polluted many sources of drinking water. New Zealand and Australia have sent teams to Tonga to help out. Some of the teams will use airplanes to get a better idea of the damage across the island nation. The large cloud of ash high above Tonga is making it impossible to get a good picture of what’s happening in the area from high in the air. 11. What information can we get about the volcano in paragraph 1? A. It is underwater and in an island nation. B. More than 105, 000 people live next to it. C. It’s quite far away from the South Pacific Ocean. D It’s under the ocean and sent stones into the water. 12. What does the underlined expression “knocked out” mean? A. changed B. improved C. destroyed D. brought 13. Which of the following can we infer（推断）from paragraph 3? A. The ash from the volcano has covered much of Tonga. B. The ash makes the air in Tonga dangerous to breathe. C. Houses in low-lying areas were completely damaged. D. People in Tonga will be short of clean drinking water. 14. Why is it hard for the teams to know exactly what’s happening in the area? A. There is still a lot of ash in the air above Tonga. B. The airplanes cannot take off because of the ash. C. The teams don’t know how to take a good picture. D. The clouds in the sky stop the teams seeing clearly. 15. Where can we probably read this article? A. In a comic book. B. In a newspaper. C. In a science fiction. D. In a fashion magazine. D Learning to play an instrument can be one of the most exciting ways to spend your free time.
