Some cars were carried across the parking area 7 thrown into storm-water drains. In another block, a tree fell on a bus 8 was taking some football players to a game. 9 (lucky), no one on the bus got injured.
It was pleasing that the storm was finally at 10 end after doing extreme damage.
六、阅读理解
Large ice balls fall from the sky, bounce off hard surfaces-and sometimes even break windshields and hurt crops. Maybe you’ve seen these pieces of ice laying on the ground after a storm. Their attacks start and stop suddenly, seemingly without warning. This is a hailstorm (雹暴). And it can be a truly impressive sight.
Particularly large or dense hailstones can damage human-made structures and objects, such as buildings and cars. Zach Lebo knows this firsthand. A scientist studying weather, he works at the University of Oklahoma in Norman. His parents in Pennsylvania had to replace their home’s roof twice in the last 10 years due to hail damage.
Researchers are hoping to better understand hail. One big question is how hail moves through the atmosphere and builds up in size. Some hailstones have measured more than 13 centimeters across. That’s larger than a softball!
Scientists used to think that hailstones grew by taking a looping (环形的) path through the atmosphere. But such looping motions are actually rare, scientists in China have now shown. Now they can estimate the paths each ice ball took through the sky by analyzing the chemistry of some hailstones collected by citizen scientists and then matching that chemistry with the properties of the atmosphere at different heights.
Studying the shapes of hailstones also can help explain how each hailstone forms. Hailstones are seldom perfect ice balls, which come in all sorts of weird shapes, says Becky Adams-Selin, an American hail scientist. Some hailstones present leaf-like pieces of ice, she notes, and others can have sticking-out parts.
She also developed a device to store hailstones as her team drives around. “It’s like a giant funnel (漏斗) that collects hail and funnels it into a battery-powered freezer,” she explains.
Hailstones are a window into the atmosphere. It can be hard to directly observe where hail forms, Becky Adams-Selin explains. “We’re blind to what’s happening inside the clouds.” But hailstones deliver clues about what’s going on high in the sky right into scientists’ hands.
1.What does the example of Zach Lebo’s families show?
A.Hailstones can really cause great damage.
B.Pennsylvania often gets struck by hailstones.
C.People have no good methods of knowing hail.
D.Scientists can’t always predict hailstones accurately.
2.What contributions have Chinese scientists made?
A.They have invented a battery-powered freezer.
B.They can change the shape of hailstones at will.
C.They have discovered how hailstones form in the air.
D.They can figure out how hailstones travel in the atmosphere.
3.What does the underlined word “weird” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Round. B.Typical. C.Strange. D.Regular.
4.What is the author’s attitude towards hail?
A.Critical. B.Objective. C.Indifferent. D.Negative.
七、读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The sun was still low in the sky when Jacob and Caleb arrived at the docks, the sea stretching out before them in shades of silver and blue. Jacob walked ahead, eyes scanning every detail of their small boat, mentally checking his list. He had been up before dawn, packing gear (装备), checking the motor, and studying the maps. Even now, as they prepared to cast off, he was still tying down extra ropes, triple-checking the fuel, and adjusting the life vests.
Caleb, in contrast, strolled leisurely behind him, humming a low tune under his breath. He had shown up with little more than a weathered backpack slung over one shoulder and a thermos of coffee in his hand. He was in no hurry, no rush. The day was theirs to enjoy, and the sea, to him, was a vast and friendly companion.
“You sure you packed everything?” Jacob called over his shoulder, his brow wrinkled.
Caleb took a slow sip of his coffee, leaning against the dock post. “Packed what I need. You know me, Jacob. I like to keep it simple.”
“Simple is fine when you’re on land,” Jacob muttered, standing up and wiping his hands on his jeans. “But we’re not on land, are we? One wrong move out there, and the sea doesn’t care how ‘simple’ you want to keep things.”
Caleb chuckled, shaking his head. “You worry too much. It’s a clear day. We’ll be fine. Just enjoy the process.” Jacob let out an annoyed sigh. “You always do this, man. You act like life just... flows, like everything will work out if you just drift along. But that’s not how it works. You have to be ready, prepared, in control.”
The boat, small but solid, swung gently on the water as they finally set off. Jacob was at the helm (掌舵), eyes scanning the horizon, hands steady on the wheel. Caleb lounged back, feet propped up on a coil of rope, the wind ruffling his hair as he looked up at the sky, bathing in the warmth of the sun. For a while, the day was as perfect as it could be.
But it wasn’t long before the weather began to shift.

【解析】
1.考查固定短语。句意:锻炼可以改变你的健康状况。根据句意可知,句中涉及固定短语“make a difference”,意为“有影响,起作用”,情态动词“can”后接动词原形。故填make a difference。
2.考查固定短语和时态。句意:上个月的恶劣天气是庄稼歉收的原因。根据句意可知,句中涉及固定短语“be responsible for”,意为“是……的原因”,根据句中“Last month”可知,句子为一般过去时,“weather”与“was”连用。故填was responsible for。
3.考查名词。句意:威尼斯是世界上最大的旅游景点之一。根据句意可知,“one of”后应用“attract”的名词形式“attraction”,意为“景点”,为可数名词,“one of”后接可数名词复数形式“attractions”。故填attractions。
4.考查形容词。句意:她感到相当困惑,因为她听不懂老师的话。根据句意可知,句中应用“confuse”的形容词形式“confused”,意为“感到困惑的”,修饰人,作表语。故填confused。

三、完成句子
1.As soon as/The moment he saw me/ On/Upon seeing me, he waved to me and invited me to go travelling in the UFO. (用hardly...when...改写)
【答案】Hardly had he seen me when he waved to me and invited me to go travelling in the UFO.
【详解】考查时间状语从句。句意:他一看到我就向我挥手,邀请我乘坐不明飞行物去旅行。as soon as,the moment引导时间状语从句,意为“一……就……”,“on/upon +doing sth.”也表示“一……就……”,所以此处可用固定句型“hardly...when...”,意为“一……就……”,在该句型中,hardly可以提到句首,后面的句子用部分倒装,而且句子用过去完成时态。时间状语从句中的用一般过去时态。故答案为Hardly had he seen me when he waved to me and invited me to go travelling in the UFO.
2.I as the plane landed safely.
= as the plane landed safely.
= , the plane landed safely.
飞机安全着陆,我顿时放下心来。
【答案】 breathed a sigh of relief A wave of relief flooded over me To my relief
【详解】考查动词短语、时态和介词短语。在第一句中“放下心来”可用动词短语breathe a sigh of relief表示,结合给出的从句时态可知,讲述过去的事情,谓语动词breathe应用一般过去时态breathed;第二句中缺主句,“我顿时放下心来”可意译为“a wave of relief flooded over me”,其中a wave of relief作无灵主语,谓语动词flood意为“(感觉或回忆)涌上心头”,讲述过去的事情用一般过去时态;第三句中处理为介词短语to my relief,意为“令我感到宽慰的是”,表达了相同的意思。故填:①breathed a sigh of relief;②A wave of relief flooded over me;③To my relief。
3.Some firefighters and a truck were outside their house. (倒装结构) (句型转换)
【答案】Outside their house were some firefighters and a truck.
【详解】考查倒装句。句意:一些消防员和一辆卡车在他们的房子外面。分析题干要求可知,此句改为倒装句应把原句中“outside their house”置于句首,构成完全倒装,把谓语were置于主语some firefighters and a truck之前,故本句改为倒装句为:Outside their house were some firefighters and a truck.
4.He of the fresh mountain air. (用breath短语的正确形式填空)
【答案】took/drew a deep breath
【详解】考查时态和短语。句意:他深深地吸了一口山里的新鲜空气。根据句意和英语提示可知,本句在描述过去发生的事情为一般过去时,深呼吸为“take/draw a deep breath”。故填took/drew a deep breath。
5.大量的农作物被淹,许多地方电力供应中断。(flood;cut)
A great number of crops and electricity in many places.
【答案】 were flooded was cut off
【详解】考查动词时态和语态。表示“被淹”短语为be flooded;表示“中断”短语为cut off,主语为电力,与cut off是被动关系,用被动语态。根据句意可知,句子描述的是过去发生的事情,用一般过去时。故空1和2填were flooded;空3到空5填was cut off。
6.我们应该欣赏自然平衡,更加重视野生动物保护的重要性。 (attention)
We should appreciate the natural balance and the importance of wildlife protection.
【答案】 pay more attention to
【详解】考查动词短语、情态动词用法和比较级。根据提示可知,表示“重视”应用动词短语pay attention to,表示“更加”应用形容词比较级more修饰名词attention。在情态动词should后应用动词原形。故填①pay②more③attention④to。
四、单句语法填空
1.Due to (curious), he squeezed himself into the crowd to see what had happened. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】curiosity
【详解】考查名词。句意:由于好奇,他挤进人群,想看看发生了什么事。分析可知,空前“to”为介词,所填应是名词,作其宾语。“curious”,形容词,意为“好奇的”,其名词形式为“curiosity(好奇心)”。故填curiosity。
2.We need to prepare several (document) for the interview. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】documents
【详解】考查名词复数。句意:我们需要为面试准备几份文件。document是规则可数名词,several后接可数名词复数,故填documents。
3.My parents lent me the money. , I couldn’t have afforded the trip. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】Otherwise
【详解】考查副词。句意:我父母借给我钱。否则,我负担不起这次旅行。根据前文“My parents lent me the money.”和后文“I couldn’t have afforded the trip”可知,此处应用副词otherwise表示“否则”作状语。句首首字母应大写。故填Otherwise。
4.I have been fortunate enough (visit) many parts of the world as a lecturer. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】to visit
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:我很幸运能以讲师的身份访问世界许多地方。be fortunate to do sth.为固定句型,意为“很幸运能做某事”。故填to visit。
5.I rushed to the airport, only (know) that John had gone. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】to know
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:我匆忙赶到机场,却发现约翰已经走了。此处为only to do sth.,不定式作结果状语。故填to know。
五、语法填空
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
As far as I know, the heavy storm was one of the worst events of the city. It struck the western part of the city last night. The wind speed reached eighty kilometres per hour.

1.考查介词。句意:这场风暴对至少两百户人家造成了严重破坏。此处为固定搭配“cause damage to...”,意为“对……造成破坏”,用介词to。故填to。
2.考查动词语态和时态。句意:房屋屋顶被刮走后,许多人无家可归。此处为谓语动词,描述过去发生的动作,且leave与主语A great number of people之间为被动关系,所以此处使用一般过去时的被动语态,主语A great number of people为复数,所以谓语动词为were left。故填were left。
3.考查名词复数。句意:房屋屋顶被刮走后,许多人无家可归。roof为可数名词,根据后面的were可知主语为复数,用roof的复数形式roofs。故填roofs。

6.考查非谓语动词。句意:一位没有全额保险的车主大哭起来。此处为固定搭配“burst out doing sth.”,意为“突然做某事”,用cry的动名词形式crying。故填crying。
7.考查连词。句意:一些汽车被冲过停车场,然后被扔进雨水沟。此处“carried across the parking area”和“thrown into storm-water drains”是并列动作,用连词and连接。故填and。
8.考查定语从句。句意:在另一个街区,一棵树倒在了一辆正载着足球运动员去参加比赛的公交车上。此处为关系词引导的限制性定语从句,先行词为a bus,指物,在从句中作主语,用关系代词that/which。故填that/which。
9.考查副词。句意:幸运的是,车上没有人受伤。此处修饰整个句子,用lucky的副词形式luckily,位于句首,首字母大写。故填Luckily。
10.考查冠词。句意:令人欣慰的是,这场造成极大破坏的风暴终于结束了。此处为固定搭配“at an end”,意为“结束”,连接元音音素,用不定冠词an。故填an。

【答案】1.A 2.C 3.C 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍冰雹的形成与影响。同时文章描述了冰雹可能造成破坏,并说明科学家研究其形成和运动路径。
1.细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“Particularly large or dense hailstones can damage human-made structures and objects, such as buildings and cars. Zach Lebo knows this firsthand. His parents in Pennsylvania had to replace their home’s roof twice in the last 10 years due to hail damage. (特别大或密集的冰雹可以破坏人造建筑和物体,如建筑物和汽车。Zach Lebo对此有亲身体会。他的父母住在宾夕法尼亚州,在过去10年里因冰雹损坏被迫两次更换房顶。)”可知,这个例子是为了说明冰雹确实能造成很大的破坏。故选A。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段中“But such looping motions are actually rare, scientists in China have now shown. Now they can estimate the paths each ice ball took through the sky by analyzing the chemistry of some hailstones collected by citizen scientists and then matching that chemistry with the properties of the atmosphere at different heights. (但中国科学家现在表明,这种循环运动实际上很少见。现在,他们可以通过分析公民科学家收集的一些冰雹的化学成分,并将这些化学成分与不同高度的大气特性相匹配,来估计每个冰球在天空中经过的路径。)”以及第三段中提到的“One big question is how hail moves through the atmosphere and builds up in size. (一个大问题是冰雹如何在大气中移动并增大体积。)”可知,中国科学家通过分析冰雹的化学成分和大气特性,能够估计出冰雹在大气中的移动路径,这有助于解释冰雹是如何在空中形成的。选项C“They have discovered how hailstones form in the air.(他们发现了冰雹在空中是如何形成的)”符合题意。故选C。
3.词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Hailstones are seldom perfect ice balls, which come in all sorts of weird shapes, says Becky Adams-Selin, an American hail scientist. Some hailstones present leaf-like pieces of ice, she notes, and others can have sticking-out parts.(美国冰雹科学家Becky Adams-Selin说,冰雹很少是完美的冰球,它们有各种各样的……形状。她指出,有些冰雹呈现出叶状的冰块,而另一些则可能有突出的部分。)可知,冰雹的形状多种多样,且很多形状并不常见或规则,因此“weird”在这里的意思是“奇怪的”。C选项“Strange.(奇怪的)”与划线词意思一致。故选C。
4.推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“Large ice balls fall from the sky, bounce off hard surfaces-and sometimes even break windshields and hurt crops. Maybe you’ve seen these pieces of ice laying on the ground after a storm. Their attacks start and stop suddenly, seemingly without warning. This is a hailstorm (雹暴). And it can be a truly impressive sight. (巨大的冰球从天空坠落,撞击坚硬的物体——有时甚至会击碎挡风玻璃并损害农作物。也许你曾在暴风雨过后看到地面上散落着这些冰块。它们的攻击突然开始又突然停止,似乎毫无预兆。这就是雹暴。而且这景象确实令人印象深刻。)”可知,作者首先介绍了冰雹的定义和危害;同时根据第四段中“Scientists used to think that hailstones grew by taking a looping (环形的) path through the atmosphere. But such looping motions are actually rare, scientists in China have now shown. Now they can estimate the paths each ice ball took through the sky by analyzing the chemistry of some hailstones collected by citizen scientists and then matching that chemistry with the properties of the atmosphere at different heights.(科学家们过去认为,冰雹是通过在大气中形成环形路径而形成的。但中国的科学家们现在发现,这种环形运动实际上极为罕见。现在,他们可以通过分析公民科学家收集的某些冰雹的化学成分,并将其与不同高度大气的特性相匹配,来估算每个冰球在天空中的移动路径。)”可知,作者引用了科学家对冰雹的研究和发现,包括冰雹的移动路径、形成方式和形状等。在描述这些内容时,作者并没有表现出明显的情感倾向,而是客观地陈述了事实和科学家的观点。因此,可以推断出作者对冰雹的态度是客观的。B选项“Objective.(客观的)”符合题意。故选B。
七、读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The sun was still low in the sky when Jacob and Caleb arrived at the docks, the sea stretching out before them in shades of silver and blue. Jacob walked ahead, eyes scanning every detail of their small boat, mentally checking his list. He had been up before dawn, packing gear (装备), checking the motor, and studying the maps. Even now, as they prepared to cast off, he was still tying down extra ropes, triple-checking the fuel, and adjusting the life vests.
Caleb, in contrast, strolled leisurely behind him, humming a low tune under his breath. He had shown up with little more than a weathered backpack slung over one shoulder and a thermos of coffee in his hand. He was in no hurry, no rush. The day was theirs to enjoy, and the sea, to him, was a vast and friendly companion.
“You sure you packed everything?” Jacob called over his shoulder, his brow wrinkled.
Caleb took a slow sip of his coffee, leaning against the dock post. “Packed what I need. You know me, Jacob. I like to keep it simple.”
“Simple is fine when you’re on land,” Jacob muttered, standing up and wiping his hands on his jeans. “But we’re not on land, are we? One wrong move out there, and the sea doesn’t care how ‘simple’ you want to keep things.”
Caleb chuckled, shaking his head. “You worry too much. It’s a clear day. We’ll be fine. Just enjoy the process.” Jacob let out an annoyed sigh. “You always do this, man. You act like life just... flows, like everything will work out if you just drift along. But that’s not how it works. You have to be ready, prepared, in control.”
The boat, small but solid, swung gently on the water as they finally set off. Jacob was at the helm (掌舵), eyes scanning the horizon, hands steady on the wheel. Caleb lounged back, feet propped up on a coil of rope, the wind ruffling his hair as he looked up at the sky, bathing in the warmth of the sun. For a while, the day was as perfect as it could be.
But it wasn’t long before the weather began to shift.

Paragraph 1:
Dark clouds started to roll in and the wind howled fiercely. Jacob, who had been keeping a close watch on the changing sky, shouted to Caleb to secure the loose items on the boat. Caleb, who had been enjoying the sun just moments before, quickly sprang into action, realizing that the situation was becoming serious. The waves grew higher, and the boat rocked violently, which made Jacob grip the wheel even tighter. He knew that they had to find shelter soon, or they would be in great danger.Paragraph 2:
Paragraph 2:
After what seemed like a century, the storm finally faded. The clouds parted, revealing a patch of blue sky, which made Jacob and Caleb breathe a sigh of relief. They looked at each other, knowing that their teamwork, which had been tested by the fierce storm, had kept them safe. Jacob, who had been so worried before, smiled at Caleb, admitting that sometimes, even with all the preparation, they still needed a bit of luck. Caleb nodded, agreeing that life was full of surprises, which was what made it so exciting.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍冰雹的形成与影响。同时文章描述了冰雹可能造成破坏,并说明科学家研究其形成和运动路径。
1.细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“Particularly large or dense hailstones can damage human-made structures and objects, such as buildings and cars. Zach Lebo knows this firsthand. His parents in Pennsylvania had to replace their home’s roof twice in the last 10 years due to hail damage. (特别大或密集的冰雹可以破坏人造建筑和物体,如建筑物和汽车。Zach Lebo对此有亲身体会。他的父母住在宾夕法尼亚州,在过去10年里因冰雹损坏被迫两次更换房顶。)”可知,这个例子是为了说明冰雹确实能造成很大的破坏。故选A。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段中“But such looping motions are actually rare, scientists in China have now shown. Now they can estimate the paths each ice ball took through the sky by analyzing the chemistry of some hailstones collected by citizen scientists and then matching that chemistry with the properties of the atmosphere at different heights. (但中国科学家现在表明,这种循环运动实际上很少见。现在,他们可以通过分析公民科学家收集的一些冰雹的化学成分,并将这些化学成分与不同高度的大气特性相匹配,来估计每个冰球在天空中经过的路径。)”以及第三段中提到的“One big question is how hail moves through the atmosphere and builds up in size. (一个大问题是冰雹如何在大气中移动并增大体积。)”可知,中国科学家通过分析冰雹的化学成分和大气特性,能够估计出冰雹在大气中的移动路径,这有助于解释冰雹是如何在空中形成的。选项C“They have discovered how hailstones form in the air.(他们发现了冰雹在空中是如何形成的)”符合题意。故选C。
3.词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Hailstones are seldom perfect ice balls, which come in all sorts of weird shapes, says Becky Adams-Selin, an American hail scientist. Some hailstones present leaf-like pieces of ice, she notes, and others can have sticking-out parts.(美国冰雹科学家Becky Adams-Selin说,冰雹很少是完美的冰球,它们有各种各样的……形状。她指出,有些冰雹呈现出叶状的冰块,而另一些则可能有突出的部分。)可知,冰雹的形状多种多样,且很多形状并不常见或规则,因此“weird”在这里的意思是“奇怪的”。C选项“Strange.(奇怪的)”与划线词意思一致。故选C。
4.推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“Large ice balls fall from the sky, bounce off hard surfaces-and sometimes even break windshields and hurt crops. Maybe you’ve seen these pieces of ice laying on the ground after a storm. Their attacks start and stop suddenly, seemingly without warning. This is a hailstorm (雹暴). And it can be a truly impressive sight. (巨大的冰球从天空坠落,撞击坚硬的物体——有时甚至会击碎挡风玻璃并损害农作物。也许你曾在暴风雨过后看到地面上散落着这些冰块。它们的攻击突然开始又突然停止,似乎毫无预兆。这就是雹暴。而且这景象确实令人印象深刻。)”可知,作者首先介绍了冰雹的定义和危害;同时根据第四段中“Scientists used to think that hailstones grew by taking a looping (环形的) path through the atmosphere. But such looping motions are actually rare, scientists in China have now shown. Now they can estimate the paths each ice ball took through the sky by analyzing the chemistry of some hailstones collected by citizen scientists and then matching that chemistry with the properties of the atmosphere at different heights.(科学家们过去认为,冰雹是通过在大气中形成环形路径而形成的。但中国的科学家们现在发现,这种环形运动实际上极为罕见。现在,他们可以通过分析公民科学家收集的某些冰雹的化学成分,并将其与不同高度大气的特性相匹配,来估算每个冰球在天空中的移动路径。)”可知,作者引用了科学家对冰雹的研究和发现,包括冰雹的移动路径、形成方式和形状等。在描述这些内容时,作者并没有表现出明显的情感倾向,而是客观地陈述了事实和科学家的观点。因此,可以推断出作者对冰雹的态度是客观的。B选项“Objective.(客观的)”符合题意。故选B。
七、读后续写
Paragraph 1:
Dark clouds started to roll in and the wind howled fiercely. Jacob, who had been keeping a close watch on the changing sky, shouted to Caleb to secure the loose items on the boat. Caleb, who had been enjoying the sun just moments before, quickly sprang into action, realizing that the situation was becoming serious. The waves grew higher, and the boat rocked violently, which made Jacob grip the wheel even tighter. He knew that they had to find shelter soon, or they would be in great danger.Paragraph 2:
Paragraph 2:
After what seemed like a century, the storm finally faded. The clouds parted, revealing a patch of blue sky, which made Jacob and Caleb breathe a sigh of relief. They looked at each other, knowing that their teamwork, which had been tested by the fierce storm, had kept them safe. Jacob, who had been so worried before, smiled at Caleb, admitting that sometimes, even with all the preparation, they still needed a bit of luck. Caleb nodded, agreeing that life was full of surprises, which was what made it so exciting.
