She looks around her and thinks: “If this is the future, it’s very different from the future in my dream.” “There aren’t any tall buildings. There aren’t thousands of people and lots of different colours. And there aren’t any taxis flying in the sky. Maybe there was a war. The war destroyed (摧毁) the airport and my home.” She looks at Tom.

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.

A.Tornadoes usually happen on sunny and windy days.
B.Tornadoes happen when the storm clouds touch the ground.

46.The tour guide needs to take care of those (渔民) bags while they are away.
【答案】fishermen’s
【详解】句意:导游需要在那些渔夫不在的时候照看他们的包。fisherman“渔民”,可数名词;空前为those“那些”,修饰可数名词复数,空处应用复数名词fishermen的所有格修饰名词bags,表示“渔民们的包”。故填fishermen’s。
47.After taking the final examination, she isn’t (紧张不安的) any more.

49.He didn’t feel well this morning. (然而), he went to school as usual.
【答案】However
【详解】句意:他今天早上感觉不舒服。然而,他还是像往常一样去上学了。根据“He didn’t feel well this morning. …, he went to school as usual.”以及汉语提示可知,此处表示转折关系,however“然而”,副词,用于句首时,首字母大写。故填However。
50.Mary left school because of (疾病) last year. We all miss her very much.

53.It will be a hot day again today, with temperatures in the (thirty).
【答案】thirties
【详解】句意:今天又会是炎热的一天,气温三十多度。根据“with temperatures in the”可知此处应是用“in the+逢十的基数词的复数形式”表示概数。thirty的复数形式为thirties。in the thirties表示“三十多度”。故填thirties。
54.When the season changes, many people catch a cold (easy).

57.那些游客花了半小时才在浓雾中找到了出路。
It took the tourists half an hour because of the thick fog.
【答案】to find their way out/to find the way out
【详解】根据题干可知,缺少表达“找到出路”。find one’s/the way out“找到出路”,人物是游客,所以形容词性物主代词用their。此处是it took sb some time to do sth“做某事花了某人一些时间”。故填to find their/the way out。
58.许多海洋生物现在面临着严重问题。
Many sea creatures now.
【答案】are facing serious problems
【详解】根据题干可知,本句时态是现在进行时,空格处缺少“面临着严重问题”的英文表达。主语many sea creatures是复数,be动词用are,face serious problems“面临严重问题”是动词短语。face的现在分词是facing,问题不止一个,因此可数名词problem要用复数形式。故填are facing serious problems。

“Do you really have no place to go?”
Jan looks up and shakes her head.
“Then come with me. You can stay at my house tonight.”
Jan gets up and follows Tom without saying any word! Jan looks up at the night sky. It’s clear and there are thousands of stars shining above her.
“How strange!” she says. “Where are the aeroplanes (飞机)?” “Aeroplanes?” Tom looks surprised. “Yes. The planes landing and taking off at the airport.” “What airport?” “Apsworth, of course.”
Jan can see that Tom doesn’t know what she’s talking about. She knows she’s in Port Prime but everything looks different. Maybe she’s in the future. “That’s it! “ she thinks. “This is the future.”
She looks around her and thinks: “If this is the future, it’s very different from the future in my dream.” “There aren’t any tall buildings. There aren’t thousands of people and lots of different colours. And there aren’t any taxis flying in the sky. Maybe there was a war. The war destroyed (摧毁) the airport and my home.” She looks at Tom.
“Don’t laugh at me, Tom. Do you promise (保证)?”
“I promise.”
“I think I’m in the future.”
Tom laughs. “I’m sorry. So you think you’re in the future.”
“Yes. But everything’s different. Was there a war?”
“Yes, there was a war…but it was a long time ago.”
“I think my house disappeared in the war.”
Five minutes later they arrive outside Tom’s house.
They walk up to the house and Tom opens the front door. Jan notices that the front door isn’t locked.
As they walk into the front hall a voice calls out from the front room. “Tom? Is that you?” “Yes, dad,” Tom replies.

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.

She looks around her and thinks: “If this is the future, it’s very different from the future in my dream.” “There aren’t any tall buildings.

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.
