阅读下列短文,从短文后每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Natural disasters, such as earthquakes, rainstorms and strong winds, usually make a big difference to human life. They not only cause property (财产) loss but also take away people’s lives.
Strong winds can be very terrible. On March 31st, 2024, strong winds hit Nanchang, Jiangxi Province. The strong winds broke the windows into pieces and blew three people sleeping at home out of their apartments, causing their deaths. More than 1,600 trees were blown down overnight. This deadly disaster was mainly caused by the funnelling effect (狭管效应).
When the earthquake happens, the ground and buildings will shake terribly. In serious situations, buildings may even fall down and people will be buried. Recently, in Taiwan, the most powerful earthquake in a quarter century rocked the island. About 18 people were killed and thousands of people were injured.
Another example is rainstorms. They can cause floods and inundate many places. Dubai (迪拜) lies on the coast of the Persian Gulf and in the northeast of the U.A.E. (阿联酋) with a long and beautiful coastline. It doesn’t rain a lot. But on April 16th, a big rainstorm hit Dubai. It rained so much in just 12 hours that it was like a whole year’s worth of rain. The heavy rain flooded roads, shopping malls, and even airports, causing a lot of damage.
To better deal with natural disasters, we need to make our disaster prevention, mitigation (减轻), and relief coordination (协调) system better. Also, people should learn ways to protect themselves when facing natural disasters. But most importantly, we should realize that we are not the masters of nature. We need to be humble and respect it.
26.What happened in Taiwan recently?
A.A big flood. B.Strong winds. C.An earthquake. D.A rainstorm.
27.How does the writer develop Para 2?

28.In which of the following sentences can we fill the underlined word “humble”?

D.The problems are so ________ that we need to solve them at once.

Today lots of kids are at home alone after school. Are you one of them? Kids who regularly look after (定期照顾) themselves are called “latchkey kids”.

●What should you do if someone knocks at the door?
●What should you do if someone breaks into the house?
…
You may feel ▲ when you are at home alone. Don’t worry. Keeping yourself busy is helpful. There are many things which can make you feel your home alone time goes quickly:

A tornado is a tower of spinning air. Tornadoes can be very dangerous. The cause of tornadoes is not fully known. They form during thunderstorms. Inside the stormy clouds, warm air rises and cool air falls. The warm and cool air can begin to spin. This spinning air can push out of the storm clouds as a funnel. When the funnel of spinning air touches the ground, it becomes a tornado.
There are three levels of tornadoes. Weak tornadoes have wind speeds that are below 160km/h. They last for less than ten minutes. They cause small damage like fallen tree branches. Strong tornadoes have wind speeds that are between 177km/h and 330km/h and can last about twenty minutes. These tornadoes can cause quite a bit of damage and can push cars and trains over. The most dangerous tornadoes are called violent tornadoes. They can last for longer than an hour and have wind speeds that are higher than 330km/h. These deadly tornadoes can lift houses and cars into the air.
Tornadoes and cyclones are very different. Tornadoes form on land and cyclones form on the ocean. Tornadoes can be a few kilometres wide. The biggest cyclones can be hundreds of kilometres across.
Some people set up a safe room in a basement. They get a radio, water, sleeping bags and extra food. They also keep their house and garden clean by getting rid of dead trees or weak fences. If a tornado alert is given, get your saferoom ready. Do not go outside or near windows. Hide under a large bed or table. Get out of your trailer or car. If you are outside, find flat ground. Lie down and protect your neck and head with your arms. Once the tornado is over, turn on the radio. Avoid any damaged areas and do not go near any fallen power lines.
33.What can we learn about tornadoes?
A.Tornadoes usually happen on sunny and windy days.
B.Tornadoes happen when the storm clouds touch the ground.
C.Tornadoes can be hundreds of kilometres across the land.

C.Paragraph 3 D.Paragraph 4
35.The meaning of the underlined phrase “getting rid of” might be ________.
A.throwing B.keeping C.counting D.recording

COVID-19 is still spreading around the planet. This year’s Earth Day focuses on climate (气候) change. Scientists agree that climate change is causing harm to the world in the form of bad weather and natural disasters. Will climate change lead to more disease outbreaks in the future?
The answer is a possible “yes”. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), studies have shown that a warming Earth is causing more infectious (传染性的) diseases.
Malaria (疟疾), a serious and sometimes deadly disease, is mainly spread by mosquitoes (蚊子). Climate change results in more heat waves and floods, which provide perfect conditions for mosquitoes to breed (繁殖). In India, for example, the warmer climate has increased the risk by about five times. Studies also suggest that global increases in temperature will drive disease—carrying insects from the equator (赤道) to the north. This means some diseases like malaria or dengue fever (登革热) may move into new areas, such as Europe.
Deforestation (滥伐森林), a major cause of climate change, has something to do with infectious diseases, according to Nature. In places such as Central and West Africa, there have been serious deforestation and losses of living areas for bats (蝙蝠). These bats have started living closer to humans, which increases the possibility of Ebola (埃博拉) outbreaks.
As ice keeps melting (融化) into water, diseases that lie under the ice may also come back. In 2016, a city in northern Russia saw an outbreak of anthrax (炭疽) during a heat wave. Scientists believe the virus came out from the frozen soil because of rising temperatures. About 90 people were infected, the New York Times reported.
What can we do to “cool” Earth?
Governments can
Put a tax (税) or fee on carbon emissions.
Advise using clean energy, such as wind and sun energy.
Make policies and laws to protect the environment.
You can
Turn off electronic devices, such as computers and TVs when you aren’t using them.
Take a walk, ride a bike or take public transportation as much as you can.
Buy products that are energy-efficient.
37.What kind of harm may be caused by climate change?
A.Deforestation. B.Energy shortage. C.Transportation cost. D.Bad weather and natural disasters.
38.What does the underline word “This” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.The rising temperatures help mosquitoes to breed. B.Serious diseases can only stay alive in northern areas.
C.Insects help spread some serious diseases to the north. D.High temperatures make a difference to the looks of insects.
39.What is TRUE according to the passage?
A.An outbreak of anthrax resulted from the frozen soil. B.The climate change does little harm to the people’s health.
C.Bats act as a way for diseases to spread because of the deforestation. D.This year’s Earth Day advises people to stop the spread of the diseases.
40.The purpose of this article is to________.
A.explain the possible diseases under the warmer climate B.introduce how to save energy and protect the environment
C.express the writer’s ideas about what leads to the climate change D.warn people of diseases the warmer climate brings and offer some advice

(江苏宿迁专用,译林版2024)
学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________
一、单项选择(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
1.—Sam, you ________ the table yet. It’s all messy!
—Sorry. I’ll do it immediately.
A.haven’t cleared B.weren’t clearing C.won’t clear D.don’t clear
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——萨姆,你还没收拾桌子呢。桌子一团糟!——抱歉。我马上收拾。
考查动词时态。根据“yet”和“It’s all messy!”可知,“桌子还很乱”是“没收拾桌子”这一动作对现在造成的直接影响,符合现在完成时“强调动作未完成且对现在有影响”的用法,因此这里应用现在完成时,其结构为have/has done,主语为“you”,助动词应用have,否定形式为haven’t,动词clear的过去分词为cleared。故选A。
2.Lisa has been an animal keeper ________ nearly twenty years ________ 2006.
A.since; for B.for; since C.since; for D.for; for
【答案】B
【详解】句意:Lisa从2006年开始做动物饲养员已经将近20年了。
考查介词辨析。since自从,后跟时间点;for为了,后跟一段时间。根据“nearly twenty years”可知,空一后是一段时间,用介词for;根据“2006”可知,空二后是时间点,用since。故选B。
3.Poor thing! Jack ________ a fall when he ________ on the ice. He got hurt badly.
A.was having; was skating B.had; was skating
C.was having; skated D.has had; was skating
【答案】B
【详解】句意:可怜的家伙!Jack在滑冰时摔倒了。他伤得很重。
考查过去进行时。短语have a fall表示“摔倒”,是一个瞬间动作;skate on the ice“在冰上滑冰”,这是一个持续动作。两个动作都发生在过去,表示在“滑冰的时候,他摔倒了”,故when引导的时间状语从句,从句的持续动作用过去进行时,主句短暂动作用一般过去时。故选B。
4.They have many lovely pets, ________ three cats and two dogs.
A.including B.include C.included D.includes
【答案】A
【详解】句意:他们有很多可爱的宠物,包括三只猫和两只狗。
考查介词用法。including是介词,意为“包括”,符合此处用于列举宠物的语境;include是动词原形;included是过去式或过去分词;includes是动词的第三人称单数形式。此处需要用介词来引出列举的内容,所以用including。故选A。
5.—How did Mary feel when she walked along the dark street alone?
—She was filled with _________. And she almost ran back home.
A.difference B.confidence C.fear D.doubt
【答案】C
【详解】句意:——玛丽独自走在黑暗的街道上时感觉如何?——她心中充满了恐惧。她几乎跑回了家。
考查名词辨析。difference差异;confidence自信;fear害怕;doubt怀疑。根据“she walked along the dark street alone”以及“And she almost ran back home.”可知,独自走在黑暗的街道,通常让人联想到害怕,故选C。
6.You’d better not go out now. It’s raining ________.
A.hardly B.heavily C.loudly D.clearly
【答案】B
【详解】句意:你最好现在不要外出,雨下得很大。
考查副词辨析。hardly几乎不;heavily大力地,猛烈地;loudly大声地;clearly清楚地。根据“It’s raining”可知,此处表示“雨下得很大”,应用heavily。故选B。
7.I was leaving ________ my phone rang. And it was from my sister.
A.while B.when C.after D.before
【答案】B
【详解】句意:我正要离开,这时电话响了。这是我姐姐打来的电话。
考查连词辨析。while当……时,强调两个动作同时发生且持续一段时间,通常用于两个进行时的动作;when当……时,常用于一个进行时动作被另一个一般过去时动作突然打断的场景;after在……之后;before在……之前。根据“I was leaving ... my phone rang.”可知,电话响的时候,我正要离开,rang是短暂动词,不是持续进行,因此用when引导时间状语从句。故选B。
8.Pollution was once a problem. Later the government took action to improve the ________.
A.communication B.application C.instruction D.situation
【答案】D
【详解】句意:污染曾经是个问题。后来,政府采取行动改善了那种情况。
考查名词辨析。communication交流;application应用;instruction指示;situation情况。根据“Pollution was once a problem.”以及选项可知,此处表示政府采取行动改善了污染的情况。故选D。
9.When I saw Xiao Wang yesterday, he________ an old man cross the road.
A.helps B.was helping C.will help D.is helping
【答案】B
【详解】句意:昨天我看到小王的时候,他正在帮助一位老人过马路。
考查动词时态。根据“When I saw Xiao Wang yesterday, he…an old man cross the road”的语境和主从句结构,可知从句动作(帮助老人)发生在主句动作(看到)的同时,且强调动作的持续性。根据时间状语“yesterday”可知,此处表示过去某个时刻正在进行的动作,用过去进行时,结构为“主语+was/were+动词的现在分词(V-ing)。故选B。
10.—Tom, what were your parents doing at 8:00 last night?
—My mother was reading________ my father was playing computer games.
A.if B.when C.as D.while
【答案】D
【详解】——汤姆,昨晚8点你的父母在做什么?——我妈妈在看书,而我爸爸在玩电脑游戏。
考查连词辨析。if如果;when当……时;as因为;while当……时,然而。 根据“My mother was reading...my father was playing computer games”,此处需填入表示两个动作同时进行的连词,且强调对比关系(妈妈读书 vs 爸爸玩游戏)。while可表示“与此同时,然而”,突出两者行为的对比,符合语境。when虽能表示时间,但无对比含义,而原句的语境更侧重两者行为的差异。故选D。

第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从短文后每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Natural disasters, such as earthquakes, rainstorms and strong winds, usually make a big difference to human life. They not only cause property (财产) loss but also take away people’s lives.
Strong winds can be very terrible. On March 31st, 2024, strong winds hit Nanchang, Jiangxi Province. The strong winds broke the windows into pieces and blew three people sleeping at home out of their apartments, causing their deaths. More than 1,600 trees were blown down overnight. This deadly disaster was mainly caused by the funnelling effect (狭管效应).
When the earthquake happens, the ground and buildings will shake terribly. In serious situations, buildings may even fall down and people will be buried. Recently, in Taiwan, the most powerful earthquake in a quarter century rocked the island. About 18 people were killed and thousands of people were injured.
Another example is rainstorms. They can cause floods and inundate many places. Dubai (迪拜) lies on the coast of the Persian Gulf and in the northeast of the U.A.E. (阿联酋) with a long and beautiful coastline. It doesn’t rain a lot. But on April 16th, a big rainstorm hit Dubai. It rained so much in just 12 hours that it was like a whole year’s worth of rain. The heavy rain flooded roads, shopping malls, and even airports, causing a lot of damage.
To better deal with natural disasters, we need to make our disaster prevention, mitigation (减轻), and relief coordination (协调) system better. Also, people should learn ways to protect themselves when facing natural disasters. But most importantly, we should realize that we are not the masters of nature. We need to be humble and respect it.
26.What happened in Taiwan recently?

A tornado is a tower of spinning air. Tornadoes can be very dangerous. The cause of tornadoes is not fully known. They form during thunderstorms. Inside the stormy clouds, warm air rises and cool air falls. The warm and cool air can begin to spin. This spinning air can push out of the storm clouds as a funnel. When the funnel of spinning air touches the ground, it becomes a tornado.
There are three levels of tornadoes. Weak tornadoes have wind speeds that are below 160km/h. They last for less than ten minutes. They cause small damage like fallen tree branches. Strong tornadoes have wind speeds that are between 177km/h and 330km/h and can last about twenty minutes. These tornadoes can cause quite a bit of damage and can push cars and trains over. The most dangerous tornadoes are called violent tornadoes. They can last for longer than an hour and have wind speeds that are higher than 330km/h. These deadly tornadoes can lift houses and cars into the air.
Tornadoes and cyclones are very different. Tornadoes form on land and cyclones form on the ocean. Tornadoes can be a few kilometres wide. The biggest cyclones can be hundreds of kilometres across.
Some people set up a safe room in a basement. They get a radio, water, sleeping bags and extra food. They also keep their house and garden clean by getting rid of dead trees or weak fences. If a tornado alert is given, get your saferoom ready. Do not go outside or near windows. Hide under a large bed or table. Get out of your trailer or car. If you are outside, find flat ground. Lie down and protect your neck and head with your arms. Once the tornado is over, turn on the radio. Avoid any damaged areas and do not go near any fallen power lines.
33.What can we learn about tornadoes?
A.Tornadoes usually happen on sunny and windy days.
B.Tornadoes happen when the storm clouds touch the ground.
C.Tornadoes can be hundreds of kilometres across the land.
D.Tornadoes can take houses and cars into the air sometimes.

COVID-19 is still spreading around the planet. This year’s Earth Day focuses on climate (气候) change. Scientists agree that climate change is causing harm to the world in the form of bad weather and natural disasters. Will climate change lead to more disease outbreaks in the future?
The answer is a possible “yes”. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), studies have shown that a warming Earth is causing more infectious (传染性的) diseases.
Malaria (疟疾), a serious and sometimes deadly disease, is mainly spread by mosquitoes (蚊子). Climate change results in more heat waves and floods, which provide perfect conditions for mosquitoes to breed (繁殖). In India, for example, the warmer climate has increased the risk by about five times. Studies also suggest that global increases in temperature will drive disease—carrying insects from the equator (赤道) to the north. This means some diseases like malaria or dengue fever (登革热) may move into new areas, such as Europe.
Deforestation (滥伐森林), a major cause of climate change, has something to do with infectious diseases, according to Nature. In places such as Central and West Africa, there have been serious deforestation and losses of living areas for bats (蝙蝠). These bats have started living closer to humans, which increases the possibility of Ebola (埃博拉) outbreaks.
As ice keeps melting (融化) into water, diseases that lie under the ice may also come back. In 2016, a city in northern Russia saw an outbreak of anthrax (炭疽) during a heat wave. Scientists believe the virus came out from the frozen soil because of rising temperatures. About 90 people were infected, the New York Times reported.
What can we do to “cool” Earth?
Governments can
Put a tax (税) or fee on carbon emissions.
Advise using clean energy, such as wind and sun energy.
Make policies and laws to protect the environment.
You can
Turn off electronic devices, such as computers and TVs when you aren’t using them.
Take a walk, ride a bike or take public transportation as much as you can.
Buy products that are energy-efficient.
37.What kind of harm may be caused by climate change?
A.Deforestation. B.Energy shortage. C.Transportation cost. D.Bad weather and natural disasters.
38.What does the underline word “This” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.The rising temperatures help mosquitoes to breed. B.Serious diseases can only stay alive in northern areas.
C.Insects help spread some serious diseases to the north. D.High temperatures make a difference to the looks of insects.
39.What is TRUE according to the passage?
A.An outbreak of anthrax resulted from the frozen soil. B.The climate change does little harm to the people’s health.
C.Bats act as a way for diseases to spread because of the deforestation. D.This year’s Earth Day advises people to stop the spread of the diseases.
40.The purpose of this article is to________.
A.explain the possible diseases under the warmer climate B.introduce how to save energy and protect the environment
C.express the writer’s ideas about what leads to the climate change D.warn people of diseases the warmer climate brings and offer some advice
【答案】37.D 38.C 39.C 40.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了气候变化引起的自然灾害和疾病对人类的影响,作者为应对气候变化提出了建议。
37.细节理解题。根据第一段“Scientists agree that climate change is causing harm to the world in the form of bad weather and natural disasters.”可知,气候变化会造成恶劣天气及自然灾害。故选D。
38.推理判断题。根据第三段“Studies also suggest that global increases in temperature will drive disease—carrying insects from the equator (赤道) to the north. This means some diseases like malaria or dengue fever (登革热) may move into new areas, such as Europe.”可知,全球气温的升高将把携带疾病的昆虫从赤道带到北方。这意味着一些疾病,如疟疾或登革热,可能会转移到欧洲等新的地区。划线部分This指代“昆虫帮助将一些严重的疾病传播到北方”。故选C。
39.细节理解题。根据第四段“Deforestation (滥伐森林), a major cause of climate change…These bats have started living closer to humans, which increases the possibility of Ebola (埃博拉) outbreaks.”可知,由于砍伐森林,蝙蝠的栖息地减少,它们会越来越接近人类,成为疾病传播的途径。故选C。
40.主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了由于气候变化引起的各种自然疾病,并提出建议应对气候变化。故选D。

Once, I wanted to put in a brighter light in my bedroom. I didn’t read the instructions carefully, so I made a mistake. The whole house had a power cut. It’s very dangerous to start doing work without reading the instructions.
Another time, our school had a trip to the park on foot. On the way, I was talking with my friends excitedly. We didn’t stop when the traffic lights turned red. A car nearly hit us. Luckily, the car driver stopped the car in time. Otherwise, we couldn’t imagine what would happen.
We should follow the traffic rules on the way. Don’t ride too fast when it’s rainy. Always remember to walk across the zebra crossing. If we want to do DIY jobs, we should read the instructions carefully. Turn off the lights when we do something with electricity. We’d better be more careful because electricity is very dangerous.
In short, safety must come first.
