B Have you ever heard of an avalanche(雪崩)？The ava lanche is a kind of sudden natural disaster like earthquakes.

Avalanches are very dangerous.Heavy snow moving down the mountains may pull trees and rocks along.That can cause great damage,such as pushing down houses and killing peo- ple.Luckily,few people live in the parts of the mountains where avalanches are most likely to happen.So not many peo- ple die from avalanches each year. Most people who may lose their lives in avalanches are ski lovers.It's important for them to stay safe while having fun in the snowy mountains.Scientists can usually tell whether( an avalanche might happen or not.If you are a ski lover, remember to pay attention to scientists'warnings before you go skiing.

C Early Warning:Staying Safe Before Natural Disasters DNatural disasters like earthquakes,floods,and tsunamis can happen suddenly.But today,we can often receive warn- ings before they arrive.These warnings help us get ready and stay safe. 2An early warning system is a way scientists tell people that a natural disaster may come.They use special tools to watch nature.They also use machines to feel small shakes in the ground.If something dangerous is found,the system sends out alerts. 3These alerts reach people through different ways.Many people get them on their mobile phones as text messages or loud alarms.They are also shown on TV and radio.In some places,you can hear sirens(警报器)outdoors.The message will tell you what kind of disaster is coming,how strong it might be,and what to do.For example,it may say,"A strong typhoon is coming in three hours.Please stay indoors and close windows..” 4Getting a warning early gives people time to act.Fami- lies can get ready for emergency bags with water,food,and a flashlight(手电筒).They can move to safer places like higher ground in a flood.These steps can save many lives. 5Remember,when you receive an early warning,listen carefully and act quickly.Being prepared is our best way to stay safe. )62.What is the purpose of an early warning system? A.To stop natural disasters. B.To tell people to get ready and stay safe. C.To make mobile phones ring.

A.Go outside to watch. B.Call the police for help. C.Listen and act quickly. D.Wait for another message D Most of us know about fires,earthquakes,droughts and floods.But from time to time,Mother Nature surprises us,and brings a terrible weather event.Here are some examples of un- usual weather. Strange rain:One day in 2005,people in a small town in Serbia looked out of their windows and saw an unusual sight. It was raining frogs.Without any warning,they found the streets full of small animals jumping about."There were thou- sands of them,"someone said."I thought maybe a plane car- ying frogs exploded(爆炸)，”said another.Scientists believe the tornado passed over a lake,lifted the frogs into the air,and then dropped them in a remote Serbian town. Fire tornadoes:Tornadoes don't seem to be dangerous enough,but some of them can be made of fire.When a wildfire reaches very high temperatures,it causes the air to become hot and to rise.Cooler air rushes in to replace hot air.This causes strong winds.These winds suck away (burning plants and even the fire itself.When this happens,a fire torna- do is produced.This tornado can be up to 15 metres wide and up to 122 metres high. Great balls of ice:In 1942,many skeletons (were found under the ice of Roopkund Lake.Many had holes in their skulls(头盖骨).But they weren't hurt in any other way. Scientists thought the people must have been hit from above. But for years,they haven't found out the cause of their deaths. Today,scientists think these people were killed by giant hail- stones-balls of ice.The blocks of ice grew bigger and bigger and turned into hailstones,until the wind couldn't lift them and the hailstones fell to the ground.Unlucky people at Roopkund Lake had nowhere to run away,so they were all killed by the hailstones. ()66.Which one is TRUE about the frogs raining down in Serbia according to scientists? A.They fell out of a plane that exploded. B.They grew in the clouds and then fell down to the ground. C.A heavy rain brought the frogs from a town far away. D.A tornado took them from a lake and dropped them over the town. )67.We can put the sentence "This makes it very danger- ous.”at the end of A.Paragraph 1 B.Paragraph 2 C.Paragraph 3 D.Paragraph 4 )68.What happened when little pieces of ice moved around in the wind? A.They became bigger. B.They became higher. C.They fell to the ground as snow. D.They became raindrops. )69.What can we know according to the passage? A.People's activities have caused these three weath- er events. B.People in Serbia knew there might be strange rain. C.High temperatures cause hotter air to replace cool air. D.People at Roopkund Lake might be killed by great balls of ice from the sky. )70.What is the best title for the passage? A.Unusual weather B.Mother Nature C.Humans vs Nature D.Unusual tornadoes 第二节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。 It's normal to meet with a rainstorm on summer after- noons.Rainstorms are very dangerous for people and they can even kill people.So how can we stay safe during a rainstorm?
