It started in a big apartment building, 1 because of an electrical problem on a low floor. The fire spread fast up the building because of flammable outer insulation (隔绝材料) and strong air flow, covering many floors in minutes. The disaster killed many people, bringing great 2 to families and making the whole country more aware of the safety problems of tall buildings. A few days after the event, the Ministry of Emergency Management (应急管理部) asked for a full safety and 3 check of all tall buildings across China. People need to check if fire alarm systems work, if proper 4 are in place, and if the buildings follow the rules about using flammable materials. The main goal of the check is to find 5 dangers, make people fix problems at once, and stop such terrible accidents from happening again. China had many 6 fires in tall buildings before, so the government made strict safety rules over the past 15 years. But there is still a big problem: China has 7 7 3,500 very tall skyscrapers (摩天大楼) and over one million high-rises (buildings with eight or more floors). Many of these buildings date from the 1980s and the early 2000s, when China's cities were 8 quickly, and safety rules were not as strict. Now, many of them are old, with old electrical systems, making the risks even 9 . The national safety check is an important step to solve these big risks, and it 10 us that staying safe in tall buildings needs regular care and strict following of the rules. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 短文填空（四） possible, know, change, direct, good, attract, usual, terribly, nearly, unlucky, nature, with Beijing's Forbidden City is a place full of wonders. From its thousands of rooms to its many beautiful art works, it 1 many tourists from home and abroad to pay a visit every year. Although it has been around for more than 600 years, there are many 2 skills that we haven't known clearly behind the building. Let's go to discover them. It was said that the Forbidden City experienced more than 200 earthquakes including 3 one which happened in Tangshan in 1976. While most structures aren't made to stand 4 disasters, let alone (更别提) the ones hundreds of years ago, it seems that the Forbidden City was built to stand anything. Why can the Forbidden City stand terrible earthquakes? The answer lies in the building way. It was invented in China for centuries. It was widely used in ancient wooden buildings. It plays an important role in classical Chinese structures. “When the earthquake happens, the wooden structure of the roof does not 5 face the force the earthquake brings, but the different parts against each other move back and forth. So it 6 in shape when under pressure, much like the shock absorbers (减震器) of a car,” according to Chinese National Geography. Although it is held together 7 any nails (钉子) or glue, the brackets (支架) are 8 at keeping every part of the building together than others no matter what kind of weather it is like. “Ancient Chinese workers created structures that were both useful and beautiful, showing their rich 9 of maths, architecture, science and so on.” The Forbidden City interests visitors because of its historical influence and cultural importance, but it should 10 add one more thing to the list of attractions: earthquake shelter. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 【挑战训练】 【难度等级】 ★★★★★ 短文填空（五） easy, possibly, encourage, friend, drop, separate, parent, terribly, prepare, take, knowledge, thank Walk to School Week is a five-day challenge to encourage more children to start the day with a walk. However, a lot of children refuse 1 the challenge. It's reported that the number of children walking to school 2 from 70% in the 1970s to 36% in 2025. Should all children walk to school, or should we accept (接受) that some have to travel by car? Walking to school has lots of advantages. It is a (n) 3 way for children to introduce more exercise into their day which makes them healthier and happier. Walking would give children the chance 4 more about their local area and to enjoy being outside in the morning. If more children walk to school, there will be fewer cars on the road and less pollution (污染) around schools. This will be good for everyone, as it will result in cleaner air and a (n) 5 environment. It will be good for 6 wallets, too. Walking is free. 7 your parents to leave the car at home and take you to school on foot means they will spend less money on fuel (燃料). However, walking in the cold and rain would make children ill. This might result in pupils missing school. In the comfort of a car, children can stay warm and dry while they relax and make 8 for what they are going to do that day. In any case, it may not be 9 for some pupils to walk to school. Not everyone lives close enough to the school they go to. Also, if parents drive to work, it's a lot more convenient for them to drop children off at school on their way than making a trip 10 . 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 【参考答案】 短文填空（一） 1.peaceful 2.warning 3.to hide 4.waved 5.was thundering 6.Thankfully 7.continued 8.usual 9.strength 10.power 短文填空（二） 1.to go 2.preparations 3.usual 4.was closing 5.scared 6.thinking / thought(s) 7.Thankfully 8.calmed 9.third 10.neighbourhood 短文填空（三） 1.possibly 2.sadness 3.security 4.safeguards 5.hidden 6.deadly 7.nearly 8.growing 9.worse 10.warns 短文填空（四） 1.attracts 2.unusual 3.the most terrible 4.natural 5.directly 6.changes 7.without 8.better 9.knowledge 10.possibly 短文填空（五） 1.to take 2.dropped 3.easy 4.to know 5.friendlier 6.parents’ 7.Encouraging 8.preparation(s) 9.possible 10.separately 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
