Fifteen people died and 28 were missing after flash floods hit Yuzhong County and nearby areas in Lanzhou, Gansu Province. CCTV reported this news, at 6 p.m. on Saturday, according to the local flood control office.
Heavy rains from Thursday to Friday caused the disaster. The rain was very heavy. In some places, 220 millimeters (毫米) of rain fell in just 15 hours. That’s more than half of what the area gets in a whole year! The floods damaged many things: roads were washed out, power lines fell down, and some houses were destroyed. Over 30,000 people had to leave their homes. They couldn’t get clean water or electricity easily.
Two important roads were badly hit: the S104 highway and Xinghuang Road. Nearly 40 kilometres of these roads were damaged. These roads are very useful. People use them to carry food and other goods, and to go from one place to another. Now that the roads are closed, it’s hard for workers to deliver (运送) aid to those in need. It’s also difficult for people to go out daily.
But many people are working hard to help. By 6 p.m. on Friday, the provincial transport department (省交通部门) had sent more than 40 big machines, like diggers, and over 200 workers. They worked to fix the roads. So far, they have opened three parts of the S104 highway and four parts of Xinghuang Road again.
Other workers are trying to fix the power and water. Many companies are giving help too, like sending tents and food. The rescue and repair work is still going on. Everyone hopes things will get better soon.

C.Machines fixing roads. D.Helicopters (直升机) finding people.
( )14.What is the report mainly about?
A.How many people were hurt. B.Why the heavy rain happened.
C.Money lost from road damage. D.The flood’s harm and help given.
( )15.Why does the writer give numbers of machines and workers?

The wind began to blow 5 and the sky turned dark. We could hear sand hitting the windows like rain. My little sister was scared and started to cry. I held her hand and 6 her that everything would be fine. After about two hours, the wind died down. We looked outside and saw everything covered in a thick layer of dust. Our neighbor, Mr. Green, came to 7 if we were okay. He said that his car was completely buried. My father told us that we were 8 because we had prepared well. He reminded me that during natural disasters, staying calm and following a plan can 9 lives. From that day on, I always keep an emergency bag with food, water and a first-aid kit.

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题或翻译画线部分。
Natural disasters can hit anywhere, anytime, and being prepared is the key to staying safe. Earthquakes, typhoons, and floods are common natural disasters that can cause terrible damage and bring serious threats to safety.
Earthquakes suddenly shake the ground, often without warning. To stay safe during an earthquake, people had better “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” until the shaking stops. You can find a strong table to hide under and hold on.
Typhoons, known as hurricanes or cyclones in other parts of the world, can lead to strong winds and too much rain. Before a typhoon arrives, storing necessary things like food, water, and batteries is important.
Floods can happen when rivers overflow because of too much rain. To prepare well, avoid building homes in the areas where floods often happen and place important electrical appliances (电器) up off the ground in your home. Having an emergency plan is also a must.
By understanding these disasters and taking action, people can reduce the risk of harm and recover (恢复) more quickly after disasters happen.
根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
6.How many kinds of natural disasters are mentioned in the text?
7.Why are people advised to “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” until the shaking stops?
8.What can typhoons cause according to the text?
9.Please give another two natural disasters.
10.Why is an emergency plan important for dealing with natural disasters?

【详解】句意:值得庆幸的是,没有人在这场突如其来的暴风雨中受伤。此处需要副词修饰整个句子,“thankful”的副词形式是“thankfully”,表示“幸运地;庆幸地”,符合语境,且句首单词首字母需大写。
4.My pet dog helped me ________ (guard) the house when I was out.
【答案】guard/to guard
【详解】句意:我外出的时候,我的宠物狗帮我看守房子。句中动词help有固定用法:help sb. (to) do sth.,表示“帮助某人做某事”,其中不定式符号to可以省略,因此括号内的动词guard直接用原形(或加 to),故填guard或to guard。
5.He ran as ________ (quick) as he could to catch the early bus.
【答案】quickly
【详解】句意:他尽可能快地跑去赶早班车。句中ran是实义动词,修饰动词需要用副词作状语。括号内的quick是形容词,其对应的副词形式是quickly;同as+副词原级+as sb. can/could是固定结构,表示“尽可能……地”,因此填quickly。

( )3.They decided ______ a new house near the park last month.
A.buy B.to buy C.to buying D.buying

Fifteen people died and 28 were missing after flash floods hit Yuzhong County and nearby areas in Lanzhou, Gansu Province. CCTV reported this news, at 6 p.m. on Saturday, according to the local flood control office.
Heavy rains from Thursday to Friday caused the disaster. The rain was very heavy. In some places, 220 millimeters (毫米) of rain fell in just 15 hours. That’s more than half of what the area gets in a whole year! The floods damaged many things: roads were washed out, power lines fell down, and some houses were destroyed. Over 30,000 people had to leave their homes. They couldn’t get clean water or electricity easily.
Two important roads were badly hit: the S104 highway and Xinghuang Road. Nearly 40 kilometres of these roads were damaged. These roads are very useful. People use them to carry food and other goods, and to go from one place to another. Now that the roads are closed, it’s hard for workers to deliver (运送) aid to those in need. It’s also difficult for people to go out daily.
But many people are working hard to help. By 6 p.m. on Friday, the provincial transport department (省交通部门) had sent more than 40 big machines, like diggers, and over 200 workers. They worked to fix the roads. So far, they have opened three parts of the S104 highway and four parts of Xinghuang Road again.
Other workers are trying to fix the power and water. Many companies are giving help too, like sending tents and food. The rescue and repair work is still going on. Everyone hopes things will get better soon.
( )11.How much rain fell compared to the area’s usual yearly rain?
A.Double the yearly rain. B.Over half of yearly rain.
C.About 1/3 of yearly rain. D.Exactly half of yearly rain.
( )12.What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.heavy rains B.the floods C.people D.power lines
( )13.What does the underlined word “diggers” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Tools cleaning water. B.Doctors saving people.
C.Machines fixing roads. D.Helicopters (直升机) finding people.
( )14.What is the report mainly about?
A.How many people were hurt. B.Why the heavy rain happened.
C.Money lost from road damage. D.The flood’s harm and help given.
( )15.Why does the writer give numbers of machines and workers?
A.To say help came too late. B.To compare different helpers.
C.To explain why power went out. D.To show how hard people are working.
【答案】11.B 12.C 13.C 14.D 15.D
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲述了甘肃省兰州市榆中县及周边地区遭遇暴雨引发的洪水灾害,介绍了灾害造成的损失、影响以及各方救援情况。
11.第一段提到“In some places, 220 millimeters (毫米) of rain fell in just 15 hours. That’s more than half of what the area gets in a whole year!”,这直接表明有些地方15小时的降雨量超过了该地区全年降雨量的一半。
12.第二段“The floods damaged many things: roads were washed out, power lines fell down, and some houses were destroyed. Over 30,000 people had to leave their homes. They couldn’t get clean water or electricity easily.”中,前文描述了洪水造成的各种破坏,接着说这些人不能轻易获得干净的水和电,所以“they”指代的是受洪水影响的人们。
13.第四段“the provincial transport department (省交通部门) had sent more than 40 big machines, like diggers, and over 200 workers. They worked to fix the roads.”中,省交通部门派机器和工人去修路,所以“diggers”应该是用于修路的机器。
14.文章先介绍了洪水造成的危害,如人员伤亡、道路损坏、人们生活受影响等,接着又讲述了很多人努力救援,省交通部门派机器和工人修路,其他工人修复水电,公司也提供帮助等情况,所以报告主要是关于洪水的危害和给予的帮助。
15.第四段提到省交通部门派了40多台大机器和200多名工人去修路,结合前文道路损坏严重以及后文“So far, they have opened three parts of the S104 highway and four parts of Xinghuang Road again.”可知,作者给出机器和工人的数量是为了表明人们工作多么努力。

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题或翻译画线部分。
Natural disasters can hit anywhere, anytime, and being prepared is the key to staying safe. Earthquakes, typhoons, and floods are common natural disasters that can cause terrible damage and bring serious threats to safety.
Earthquakes suddenly shake the ground, often without warning. To stay safe during an earthquake, people had better “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” until the shaking stops. You can find a strong table to hide under and hold on.
Typhoons, known as hurricanes or cyclones in other parts of the world, can lead to strong winds and too much rain. Before a typhoon arrives, storing necessary things like food, water, and batteries is important.
Floods can happen when rivers overflow because of too much rain. To prepare well, avoid building homes in the areas where floods often happen and place important electrical appliances (电器) up off the ground in your home. Having an emergency plan is also a must.
By understanding these disasters and taking action, people can reduce the risk of harm and recover (恢复) more quickly after disasters happen.
