Ⅲ.阅读理解
As New Zealand begins the long, costly task of clearing up after Cyclone (旋风) Gabrielle cut a disastrous path across much of the North Island on Feb. 12 and 13,finger pointing has started.
The clean-up and rebuilding may take years, and even longer in remote parts, with costs running into billions of dollars.
What made the cyclone worse for New Zealand was that it followed nearly a week of heavy rain in late January that caused the worst flooding in the nation’s history.
Green Party leader James Shaw delivered a speech on Feb. 14, saying,“I struggle to find words to express what I am thinking and feeling about this particular crisis. I don’t think I’ve ever felt as sad or as angry about the last decades that we spent arguing about whether climate change was real or not, whether it was caused by humans or not, whether it was bad or not, whether we should do something about it or not, because it is clearly here now, and if we do not act, it will get worse.”
Shaw’s speech highlighted the growing concern in New Zealand and across the world about the increasing effect of climate change on global weather patterns.
A lecturer in the University of Auckland said it was high time the country moved away from passive responses to natural disasters and adopted an active approach.
“In the next decades down to the end of this century, we expect that ocean temperatures will steadily climb and extreme events will become more common, serious, and long-lasting,” a marine expert said. “The actual trajectory (轨迹), however, depends on how society will deal with the climate change challenge.”
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇议论文。文章介绍了旋风Gabrielle给新西兰带来的灾害及此灾害给人们的警醒。
1.What does the underlined phrase “finger pointing” in the first paragraph probably mean?
A.Blame. B.Praise.
C.Approval. D.Celebration.
答案:A
2
3
1
4
解析:词义猜测题。首先根据短语字面意思,“将手指指向(某人)”含有“指责”之意;其次,根据对下文的理解,第四段中James Shaw的观点“if we do not act, it will get worse”和第六段奥克兰大学的一位讲师的观点“it was high time the country moved away from passive responses to natural disasters and adopted an active approach”都表现出两人对现状的不满。故猜测“finger pointing”意为“指责”。故选A。

2.What made the cyclone worse for New Zealand?
A.It will take a long time and cost a lot of money to clean up.
B.Heavy rain had lasted for nearly a week before the cyclone hit New Zealand.
C.Some people made a lot of complaints about the cyclone.
D.The cyclone caused the worst flooding in the history of New Zealand.
答案:B

解析:细节理解题。根据第三段“What made the cyclone worse for New Zealand was that it followed nearly a week of heavy rain in late January that caused the worst flooding in the nation’s history.”可知,在旋风袭击新西兰之前,大雨已经持续了将近一个星期,造成了这个国家历史上最严重的洪灾,这使得旋风对新西兰的影响更加严重。故选B。

3.What can we learn according to what Shaw said in paragraph 4?
A.It was easy for Shaw to express himself about the cyclone.
B.Shaw felt very sad and angry about the cyclone.
C.It is necessary to argue about climate change.
D.Humans should take action to deal with climate change right away.
答案:D
2
3
1
4
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中James Shaw的观点“if we do not act, it will get worse(如果我们不采取行动,情况会变得更糟)”可知, 人类应该立即采取行动应对气候变化。故选D。

4.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Clean-up and Rebuilding After Cyclone Gabrielle
B.Attaching Importance to Climate Change
C.Cyclone Gabrielle Seen as a Wake-up Call on Climate Change
D.Increasing Ocean Temperatures Responsible for Extreme Events
答案:C
2
3
1
4
解析:标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章讲述了旋风Gabrielle给新西兰带来的灾害以及旋风发生后,三个不同的人发表了同样的感慨——人们应该积极行动起来主动应对气候变化。所以C项“旋风Gabrielle被视为气候变化的警钟”符合文章主旨。
