三、阅读理解(共14小题;每小题2分,满分28分)
阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Nature sometimes brings disasters, like tsunamis (海啸). A tsunami is a big wave (浪) caused by an earthquake or a volcano under the sea. When a tsunami might come, people get a warning, which is very important. Sensors under the sea can find unusual movements and quickly tell the right departments (部门). These departments then send warnings through radio, TV and mobile phone messages.
In 2004, there was a big tsunami near the Indian Ocean. Some places didn’t get a warning, and many people couldn’t escape. But if people had got the warning, they could have evacuated to safe high places.
After a tsunami, people in the affected (受影响的) areas have many problems. First, it’s important to make sure everyone is safe. Rescue teams look for survivors (幸存者) in the ruins. Then, providing clean water, food and shelter is very important. Slowly, people start to rebuild their homes and businesses. It takes a long time, but with the help of the government and international aid, they can eventually (最终) return to a normal life.
23.What is the most likely meaning of the underlined word “evacuated” in Paragraph 2?
A.Stayed. B.Hid. C.Moved. D.Fought.
24.What is the main topic of this article?
A.How tsunamis are formed.
B.The importance of tsunami warnings and the recovery process (恢复过程) after a tsunami.
C.The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami.
D.How the tsunami warning system works.
25.Which of the following happens first in responding (响应) to a tsunami disaster?
A.Rescue teams search for survivors.
B.People get back to their normal lives.
C.Warnings are sent out.
D.Clean water and food are provided.
【答案】23.C 24.B 25.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了海啸的成因、预警系统的重要性以及海啸发生后的恢复过程。
23.词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“But if people had got the warning, they could have evacuated to safe high places.”以及上下文可知,如果人们得到了海啸预警,他们就可以转移到安全的高地,从而避免海啸的危害。因此,“evacuated”在此处的意思最接近于“转移”或“移动”。故选C。
24.主旨大意题。文章首先介绍了海啸的成因,然后重点强调了海啸预警系统的重要性,通过2004年印度洋海啸的例子进一步说明了预警的重要性。接着,文章描述了海啸发生后,受影响地区的人们所面临的问题以及恢复过程。综合来看,文章的主要话题是海啸预警的重要性以及海啸发生后的恢复过程。故选B。
25.细节理解题。根据文章第一段“When a tsunami might come, people get a warning, which is very important.”以及后文描述可知,在海啸发生时,人们首先会收到预警,这是非常重要的。接着,救援队伍会寻找幸存者,提供清洁的水、食物和住所,最后人们开始重建家园并恢复正常生活。因此,在应对海啸灾害时,首先发生的是发出预警。故选C。

I ran quickly to my house to call 119, and then I rang my neighbor’s doorbell, knocked on the door, but there was no response. I got into the house through the window and found my neighbor sleeping in his bedroom. I woke him up and we rushed out of the house together.
We tried our best to pour water through the kitchen window, but the fire was too heavy. Luckily, the firemen came and put out the fire quickly. When my parents came back, they found I was dirty and tired. After my neighbor told them the whole story, they were happy and said I was a brave boy.

29.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Luckily, the firemen came and put out the fire quickly.”可知,最后,消防队员扑灭了大火。故选C。

Mountains are great places to spend your free time with your friends or family, but they can be very dangerous if you get lost when you are taking photos of animals and flowers. What can you do when you are waiting for someone to come and save you? 37
Fire is important because mountains get cold at night, even in summer. Fire also keeps dangerous animals away and can let people know where you are. 38 If you don’t have them, you can hit two rocks (岩石) together to start a fire. Just be careful when you are doing that!

But it’s also a good idea to collect (收集) rainwater with an empty bottle. So don’t forget to take one with you!
Finally, you need a shelter (庇护处), for example, a cave (山洞) can be a shelter. If you can’t find this kind of place around you, find a dry place and put up some tree branches (树枝) with many leaves to make one. 40
Remember, you should never go to the mountain s by yourself. If everything is ready, you can have a safe and wonderful trip!

Have you ever seen a storm? Lots of things can happen when there is a storm. It can rain. The wind can blow. The sky can be dark. And all the lights in your house can go out.
When all the lights go out, your house is dark. It is a problem because you cannot do certain things in the dark. You cannot read or write. It is hard to put on clothes. It is hard to feed your pet. It is hard to walk because you cannot see well.
When all the lights go out, you can wait until the storm goes away. Then the lights may go back on. But it is not interesting to wait and wait!
To make things better, it is a good idea to make the dark interesting. You can light candles. The fire on the candles will give the house light. Then you can play a game with your family. Maybe you can use the light to read. Or you can tell an interesting story in the dark.

Big fires once hit Australia. A lot of forests in the country were on fire.

Many buildings were destroyed, leaving people homeless. Thousands of koalas died, which broke our hearts. Thick smoke was everywhere, making the air hard to breathe.

After a tsunami, people in the affected (受影响的) areas have many problems. First, it’s important to make sure everyone is safe. Rescue teams look for survivors (幸存者) in the ruins.

Mountains are great places to spend your free time with your friends or family, but they can be very dangerous if you get lost when you are taking photos of animals and flowers. What can you do when you are waiting for someone to come and save you? 37
Fire is important because mountains get cold at night, even in summer. Fire also keeps dangerous animals away and can let people know where you are. 38 If you don’t have them, you can hit two rocks (岩石) together to start a fire. Just be careful when you are doing that!
39 You can’t live without water, either. When you finish all your drinking water, you have to find clean water as soon as possible. It’s best to look for running water, such as a lake or a river. But it’s also a good idea to collect (收集) rainwater with an empty bottle. So don’t forget to take one with you!
Finally, you need a shelter (庇护处), for example, a cave (山洞) can be a shelter. If you can’t find this kind of place around you, find a dry place and put up some tree branches (树枝) with many leaves to make one. 40
Remember, you should never go to the mountain s by yourself. If everything is ready, you can have a safe and wonderful trip!
A.Another thing you need is clean drinking water.
B.To live on, you need three things: fire, water and shelter.
C.This will keep you dry and warm on rainy and cold nights.
D.It’s important to keep your home warm to stay healthy.
E.So you can always take a box of matches (火柴) with you.
F.You can live for days without drinking in the mountain
