A total of 126 people were killed and 188 others got injured. How terrible! If you're indoors during an earthquake, here are some ways to protect yourself. Drop down onto the floor. Earthquakes always happen without much warning, so it's recommended that you drop down onto the floor as soon as an earthquake hits. Take cover. Get under a strong table or desk. If possible, stay away from glass, windows, outside doors and walls, and anything that could fall. If there isn't a table or desk near you, cover your face and head with your arms and crouch (蹲) in an inside corner of the building. Hold on. The ground may be shaking and objects could be falling. Hold on to whatever surfaces or platforms you've gotten under and wait for the shaking to stop. If you are unable to find a surface to hide under, continue to keep your head protected with your arms. Remain inside. Researchers have shown that most injuries happen when people try to change the place of hiding or when the place is crowded and everyone has a goal to go outside. So remain inside until it's safe to get out. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 ( )21. Where did the earthquake happen in the text? A. In Xizang. B. In Shanxi. C. In Zhejiang. D. In Sichuan. ( )22.

''It's yesterday once more.'' C Typhoons are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September. How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then, cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles, and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 meters a second, a typhoon begins. A typhoon has three parts. One is called the "eye". In the eye, the wind does not move so fast. The second part is the wall of clouds around the eye. This is where the strongest wind and hardest rain are. The third part is called the "spiral rain belt area(螺旋雨带区)". Typhoons are very dangerous. In 2004, Typhoon Yunna killed 164 people in Zhejiang, and 24 people were missing. In May 2006, Typhoon Pearl hit Guangdong and Fujian, and thousands of houses were damaged. In August 2019, because of Typhoon Lekima, 56 people were killed and 14 were missing in Zhejiang. In 2024, Typhoon Yagi landed on Hainan. Thousands of houses and buildings were damaged. What to do when a typhoon hits: ★Stay inside, close all the windows and stay away from them. ★Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes! ★Listen to the radio or watch TV for important information. ★If you're told to go to a safer place, do so right away. ( )31. Typhoons usually happen ______. A. when the wind moves at the speed of 10 metres a minute B. in all of the Asian countries C. in July, August and September D. in the cold season ( )32. Which picture can tell the meaning of the underlined sentences ''it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then, cooler air around it rushes in''? A. B. C. D. ( )33. When a typhoon comes, we can't ______. A. stay outside with our bikes B. listen to typhoon news C. stay inside the strong house D. close all the windows and stay close to them ( )34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Typhoon Yagi killed 164 people in Zhejiang in 2004. B. A typhoon will happen when the wind goes faster than 30 metres a second. C. The strongest winds and the hardest rain are in the eye of a typhoon. D. We should open the window when the typhoon comes. ( )35. What is the structure of the passage? A. ①/②③④⑤ B. ①②③④/⑤ C. ①/②③④/⑤ D. ①/②③/④/⑤ D The weather report says there is a little chance of thunderstorms (雷雨), but you can only see a few white clouds overhead.

It’s known to us that it’s important to know what to do during an earthquake. Let me share some key tips. If you’re inside, stay under a strong table right away. Use your arms to cover your head and neck. This can protect you from falling things. If you’re outside, run to an open area as soon as possible. Remember to stay away from buildings and trees as they might fall down and hurt you. If you’re in the ruins, try to stay calm first. Shout for help loudly so that rescuers can find you. Let’s keep these tips in mind. They may save our lives one day. Thanks for your listening! ( 1 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
