A lot of these films have fallen flat on their face, because a lot of times their sole purpose is to showcase pretty special effects and not much else.Don’t Look Up (2021) Disaster: Asteroid (小行星) impact Normally, when disaster movies are made they tend to focus more on the action side of things or on the tragedy (悲剧) of many lives being lost. Don’t look Up this movie is a comedy at heart, and turns a serious, potentially bad situation into something truly funny.Only the Brave (2017) Disaster: Wildfire This one is specifically about a team of 20 firefighters who risked their own lives to fight the very real 2013 Yarnell Hill Wildfire. 19 of these 20 did not come home. This movie shows how firefighters are somewhat underappreciated members of society that deserve more credit, especially with the danger they face.Deep Impact (1998) Disaster: Asteroid impact It is a movie that didn’t get very good reviews when it first came out, but it is a lot easier to appreciate now. There aren’t a lot of asteroid disaster movies out there that have as many enjoyable moments as this one does. Plus, it has Morgan Freeman in it, who is always a welcome addition.The Impossible (2012) Disaster: Tsunami (海啸) The Impossible is based on a Spanish family experience surviving the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, which reportedly claimed over 250,000 lives in 14 different countries. That’s right: this movie is based on true events. 21.(7.5分)What is special about Don’t look Up? A.It tells terrible scenes. B.It shows survival methods. C.Morgan Freeman is in it. D.Its plot is full of humor. 22.What moves us most in Only the Brave? A.People’s quick reaction to the fire. B.Firefighters’ spirit of devotion. C.People’s gratitude to firefighters. D.The enjoyable moments. 23.Which movie describes the terrible scene in the ocean? A.Don’t Look Up. B.Only the Brave. C.The Impossible. D.Deep Impact. (本题10分)A woman in a cap wanders calmly along. Except for the lava (熔岩) erupting behind her, she could be walking in the park. The woman turns to watch the molten rock flow for a moment then walks calmly toward the camera. The footage(镜头) is from Werner Herzog’s book to volcanoes and volcano hunters, Into the Inferno, and the woman pictured is perhaps one of the most important volcanologists of all time, Katia Krafft. Born in France, in 1942, Katia developed an interest in volcanoes at an early age. Later, she met Maurice Krafft. The pair bonded over their shared love of volcanoes before marrying in 1970. The Kraffts wrote about 20 books on volcanoes across the globe. Katia and her husband made great progress in educating the general public in volcanology. Their footage had more than scientific value. For instance, when Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines began to show signs of an eruption in 1991, the Kraffts were able to present Philippine President Cory Aquino with video footage of the effects of the 1985 eruption of Nevado del Ruiz in Colombia, asking him to call for an evacuation of those in the danger zone. In 1969, Katia was awarded the prize of the Vocation Foundation for her work on active volcanic sites. The couple lost their lives, along with more than 40 others during the eruption of Mount Unzen in Japan on June 3.1991. when they were caught in a flow of rock, gas and ash moving at speeds of over 100 miles per hour, with temperatures of more than 800 degrees Fahrenheit. Katia was 49; Maurice, 45. Katia’s impact on volcanology has reached far beyond her death and has encouraged many young women to study our restless planet. “Katia Krafft is definitely the reason why I’m doing this job,” says Carla Tiraboschi, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Minster, Germany. Carla first saw Katia in a documentary when she was just six or seven years old and has been crazy about volcanoes ever since. 24.(10分)What can we infer from the book Into the Inferno? A.Its author is Katia Krafft. B.It’s a biography of Katia Krafft. C.It calls on protecting the environment. D.It focuses on volcanoes and their explorers. 25.What do we know about the couple? A.They prevented a natural disaster. B.They served as a warning in Japan. C.They helped spread volcano science. D.They covered Mount Pinatubo’s eruption. 26.Which can replace the underlined word “evacuation” in paragraph 3? A.Substance. B.Departure. C.Occupation. D.Intervention. 27.How did Katia influence Carla Tiraboschi? A.Katia’s death made her restless. B.Katia helped her with her research. C.Katia taught her to make a documentary. D.Katia’s deeds inspired her career choice. (本题10分)Are flash floods becoming more serious? According to the Environment Agency, around 5.2 million properties in England alone are at risk of flooding. Climate change is bringing more unpredictable weather patterns, such as wetter weather and rising sea level. Therefore, protecting yourselves from flooding has never been more important. Here are some things you can do. First, stay informed. Download the weather app and allow notices. The app will provide you with real-time weather warnings allowing you to take appropriate measures. Extreme weather events are an unstoppable force — sometimes leaving the area will be your only safe option. Second, know the level of risk by looking at flood maps. You may be required to have flood insurance if you live in a high-risk area. Third, create an emergency plan. Make sure you always keep emergency supplies to last several days, including a first aid kit. Having a way of recharging your mobile phone is worth considering too. But be particularly careful when travelling by car. Don’t drive through flooded streets — it’s difficult to judge the water depth, and roadways hidden below the water can collapse. If floodwaters cause your vehicle to lose control, give it up and seek the higher ground. Rapidly rising water can sweep the vehicle away. Plan for the worst; hope for the best. The Met Office predicted that extreme rainfall events could be four times as frequent by the 2070s compared to the 1980s. In the face of increasing climate-related challenges, adopting a proactive approach to flood protection seems increasingly advisable. 28.(10分)Why does the author ask the question in Paragraph 1? A.To confirm an idea. B.To introduce a topic. C.To conclude the text. D.To express some doubts. 29.What are the drivers especially advised to do when travelling? A.Avoid driving through the flooded streets. B.Get rid of necessary supplies if necessary. C.Purchase flood insurance in advance. D.Keep the weather app updated over time. 30.What kind of writing skill does the author use in the last paragraph? A.Analyzing causes. B.Quoting sayings. C.Describing processes. D.Making comparisons. 31.What is the best title for the text? A.What is a flash flood? B.Do flash floods need controlling? C.Are flash floods becoming more serious? D.How do we protect ourselves from flash floods? (本题10分)As wildfires spread across forests and grasslands, they give off large amounts of gases and tiny particles (颗粒) into the air. Scientists now believe we may not have fully understood how much pollution these fires cause. A study reported in Environmental Science & Technology shows that wildfires around the world likely produce far more gases that harm air quality than earlier studies had suggested. The research also points out that in several areas, pollution from fires joins together with pollution from human activities, making air quality worse. Every year, wildfires burn through huge areas of plants, sending a complex mix of chemicals into the atmosphere. These include VOCs that easily form in the air, plus IVOCs and SVOCs, which need higher heat to turn into gas and more readily become tiny particles. When people breathe in these particles, they can be harmful to health. However, they are often not studied when scientists look at what wildfires release (排放). Their large quantity and chemical complexity make measurement difficult, leading past assessments to focus primarily on VOCs. To solve this problem, Shuxiao Wang’s team tried to include IVOCs and SVOCs along with VOCs in their study to better understand how wildfires affect air quality, human health, and the climate. The team first analyzed a global database of burnt land from 1997 to 2023. Then they collected information about the chemicals released when different plants burn. When they could not get direct measurements from real fires, they used lab experiments to estimate the chemicals produced. By putting all this information together, they worked out yearly worldwide wildfire emissions (排放). The results showed that wild land fires released an average of 143 million tons of chemicals yearly — about 21% higher than previous estimates. The team also found that although human activities produce more pollution overall, both wildfires and human activities release similar amounts of IVOCs and SVOCs. This finding highlights the greater-than-expected role of wildfires, particularly through IVOC and SVOC emissions, in reducing air quality. Different plans are needed to reduce pollution from both wildfires and human activities. 32.(10分)What does the author want to point out in paragraph 1? A.Wildfires are spreading faster than before. B.Wildfires are the main cause of air pollution. C.Human activities pollute the air more than wildfires. D.Fire-related air pollution is more serious than known. 33.Why were IVOCs and SVOCs often left out in earlier studies? A.They are hard to measure accurately. B.They disappear quickly in the air. C.Their effect on climate is insignificant. D.Their existence remained unknown. 34.Which best describes the study led by Shuxiao Wang’s team? A.Thorough and data-driven. B.Regional but well-recorded. C.Theoretical and model-based. D.Limited but system-building. 35.What can be concluded from the last paragraph? A.Current policies fully control wildfire pollution. B.Wildfires and human activities require emission cuts. C.More research is needed on chemicals emissions. D.Reducing human-caused pollution is less essential. (本题12.5分)How to Stay Safe During a Typhoon When a typhoon strikes, the world outside can change from calm to dangerous in just a few minutes. The sky darkens, the wind grows wild, and heavy rain begins to fall with great force. 36(12.5分) But staying calm and taking the right actions can make a big difference. Stay indoors and keep away from windows During a typhoon, the safest place is always indoors. Once the storm begins, do not go outside, not even for a short look. Close all windows and doors tightly, and stay away from glass, which may break when hit by strong wind or flying objects. 37 Waiting indoors may feel long and boring, but it protects you from real danger outside. Be mindful of electricity and stay alert (警觉的) 38 If water begins to enter your home, turn off the main power in no time. Avoid touching wet plugs, wires, or electrical devices. Listen carefully to what’s happening around you. Sometimes a strange sound or sudden silence can mean trouble is near. During a typhoon, attention saves more than strength does. Follow official warnings and remain patient A typhoon can change direction or strength at any time. Follow the advice of local governments, even if the weather seems calmer for a moment. If the sky suddenly becomes calm, don’t be fooled — it is the “eye” of the typhoon that passes by. 39 So you should stay patient and wait for official news. Stay calm and support each other No one can stop the storm, but you can control how you face it. Take deep breaths, speak gently, and try to calm those around you. Help children, the elderly, or neighbors who might be alone. Courage grows when people care for each other. 40 A.The worst of the storm may be over. B.It is normal to feel fear at such a moment. C.Kindness stands even in the strongest wind. D.The wind can return even harder than before. E.You need to learn to fix the electricity by yourself. F.If you live high up, this rule is especially important. G.Strong wind and rain can be dangerous with electricity. 三、完形填空 (本题15分)Joel Boyers and his fiancée (未婚妻), Melody Among, were heading home when he received a call.

The views from the top of the mountain were breathtaking. In all directions, valleys, forests and other mountains were laid out before them. They could even see the small wooden houses of the village where they had spent the night and the route they had taken to reach the top of this small but dangerous mountain. Laughing loudly, they were surprised at their courage in climbing such a steep and rocky mountain slope. Filled with an enormous sense of achievement, the four young climbers patted each other on the back. As the other three continued to enjoy the views, Jason, the leader of the group, stared at the horizon with a troubled look on his face. “What is it, Jason?” Sofia, the youngest of the group, asked. “Those dark clouds in the distance mean a heavy storm is fast on the way,” Jason replied. He remembered the villagers had warned him of the unpredictable weather conditions on top of the mountain and that a terrible storm could appear from nowhere. “But it’s so warm and sunny here. I don’t think the storm is coming this way,” Sofia said, more in hope than expectation. However, Jason feared the worst and knew only too well what would happen if the storm caught them in the open. He addressed the group in a calm but serious tone, “If the storm hits us, the temperature will fall dramatically. The rain and mist will make it difficult for us to see where we are going and we could easily get lost or fall off a cliff. The wind will take our strength, so we need to get moving fast.” The four mountain climbers packed up their facilities and immediately started back down the mountain. Unfortunately, despite their best efforts, the storm was upon them sooner than expected. The wind screamed in their ears, the driving rain stung (刺痛) their eyes and the mist made it impossible for them to see clearly. 注意:1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With it getting dark, Jason decided that it was just too dangerous to continue. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the storm showed signs of stopping and the climbers stepped out of the shelter. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页,共3页 试卷第1页,共3页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 2 / 2 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $ 高中英语单元测试 —— Unit 4 Natural Disasters(较易版)(解析版) 学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________ 一、听力选择题 1.(本题1.5分)How can doctors go to the earthquake-stricken area?

C.Present information on disasters. 【答案】18.C 19.B 20.A 【原文】 W: Thanks for coming to this art gallery opening. As you can see, all the art here has been painted and created to represent and celebrate local natural beauty. We come from such a beautiful place, so it is very important to realize how at risk it is. I’m not saying this to scare anyone, but to remind us how much we love our planet and how important it is to protect what we love. Here, you’ll see images of hills on fire, powerful typhoons, and rising floods. Within our coastal city, the biggest danger is sea-level rise. Many local artists have painted our streets and train stations underwater to show how real these risks are. Before we open the room to guests, I want to share the origin of this show. The initial idea was not fundraising or even climate messaging. We simply wanted to expand art classes in our community centers. That modest goal grew into this exhibition as students, teachers, and neighbors offered their talent, stories, and support. Because of everyone of you, more workshops will launch next month. To thank you for helping us reach this moment, I’d like to invite several of our lead supporters to say a few words about the student program. 二、阅读理解 (本题7.5分)Natural disaster movies feature some of the worst events that nature has to offer.

Only the Brave (2017) Disaster: Wildfire This one is specifically about a team of 20 firefighters who risked their own lives to fight the very real 2013 Yarnell Hill Wildfire. 19 of these 20 did not come home. This movie shows how firefighters are somewhat underappreciated members of society that deserve more credit, especially with the danger they face. Deep Impact (1998) Disaster: Asteroid impact It is a movie that didn’t get very good reviews when it first came out, but it is a lot easier to appreciate now. There aren’t a lot of asteroid disaster movies out there that have as many enjoyable moments as this one does. Plus, it has Morgan Freeman in it, who is always a welcome addition. The Impossible (2012) Disaster: Tsunami (海啸) The Impossible is based on a Spanish family experience surviving the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, which reportedly claimed over 250,000 lives in 14 different countries. That’s right: this movie is based on true events. 21.(7.5分)What is special about Don’t look Up? A.It tells terrible scenes. B.It shows survival methods. C.Morgan Freeman is in it. D.Its plot is full of humor. 22.What moves us most in Only the Brave? A.People’s quick reaction to the fire. B.Firefighters’ spirit of devotion. C.People’s gratitude to firefighters.

Except for the lava (熔岩) erupting behind her, she could be walking in the park. The woman turns to watch the molten rock flow for a moment then walks calmly toward the camera. The footage(镜头) is from Werner Herzog’s book to volcanoes and volcano hunters, Into the Inferno, and the woman pictured is perhaps one of the most important volcanologists of all time, Katia Krafft. Born in France, in 1942, Katia developed an interest in volcanoes at an early age. Later, she met Maurice Krafft. The pair bonded over their shared love of volcanoes before marrying in 1970. The Kraffts wrote about 20 books on volcanoes across the globe. Katia and her husband made great progress in educating the general public in volcanology. Their footage had more than scientific value. For instance, when Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines began to show signs of an eruption in 1991, the Kraffts were able to present Philippine President Cory Aquino with video footage of the effects of the 1985 eruption of Nevado del Ruiz in Colombia, asking him to call for an evacuation of those in the danger zone. In 1969, Katia was awarded the prize of the Vocation Foundation for her work on active volcanic sites. The couple lost their lives, along with more than 40 others during the eruption of Mount Unzen in Japan on June 3.1991. when they were caught in a flow of rock, gas and ash moving at speeds of over 100 miles per hour, with temperatures of more than 800 degrees Fahrenheit. Katia was 49; Maurice, 45. Katia’s impact on volcanology has reached far beyond her death and has encouraged many young women to study our restless planet. “Katia Krafft is definitely the reason why I’m doing this job,” says Carla Tiraboschi, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Minster, Germany. Carla first saw Katia in a documentary when she was just six or seven years old and has been crazy about volcanoes ever since. 24.(10分)What can we infer from the book Into the Inferno? A.Its author is Katia Krafft. B.It’s a biography of Katia Krafft. C.It calls on protecting the environment. D.It focuses on volcanoes and their explorers. 25.What do we know about the couple? A.They prevented a natural disaster. B.They served as a warning in Japan. C.They helped spread volcano science. D.They covered Mount Pinatubo’s eruption. 26.Which can replace the underlined word “evacuation” in paragraph 3? A.Substance. B.Departure. C.Occupation. D.Intervention. 27.How did Katia influence Carla Tiraboschi? A.Katia’s death made her restless. B.Katia helped her with her research. C.Katia taught her to make a documentary. D.Katia’s deeds inspired her career choice. 【答案】24.D 25.C 26.B 27.D 【导语】本篇是一篇记叙文。Katia Krafft是一位来自法国的火山学家。在那个火山研究并不成熟的年代,她几十年如一日地追逐着危险的活火山,留下了无数惊人的影像与图像档案。 【详解】24.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“The footage is from Werner Herzog’s book to volcanoes and volcano hunters, Into the Inferno, and the woman pictured is perhaps one of the most important volcanologists of all time, Katia Krafft.(这张镜头来自沃纳·赫尔佐的书《深入火心》,照片中的女人可能是有史以来最重要的火山学家之一,卡蒂亚·克拉夫特)”可推知,该书主要介绍火山科学家探索世界上火山的故事。故选D。 25.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Katia and her husband made great progress in educating the general public in volcanology.(卡蒂亚和她的丈夫在对公众进行火山学教育方面取得了很大进展)”可知,这对夫妇帮助传播火山的科学知识。故选C。 26.词义猜测题。根据划线词前文“For instance, when Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines began to show signs of an eruption in 1991, the Kraffts were able to present Philippine President Cory Aquino with video footage of the effects of the 1985 eruption of Nevado del Ruiz in Colombia, asking him to call for an(例如,当菲律宾的皮纳图博火山在1991年开始出现喷发迹象时,克拉夫特一家向菲律宾总统阿基诺提供了1985年哥伦比亚内华达德尔鲁伊斯火山喷发影响的视频片段,请他下令进行一次)”及“those in the danger zone(那些在危险地带的人)”可知,当火山有喷发迹象时,应让人们离开,疏散他们,evacuation表示“疏散、离开”,与departure意思相近。故选B。 27.细节理解题。根据文章最后一段““Katia Krafft is definitely the reason why I’m doing this job,” says Carla Tiraboschi, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Minster, Germany. Carla first saw Katia in a documentary when she was just six or seven years old and has been crazy about volcanoes ever since.(“卡蒂亚·克拉夫特绝对是我从事这项工作的原因,”德国明斯特大学的博士后研究员卡拉·蒂拉博斯基说。卡拉在六七岁的时候第一次在纪录片中看到卡蒂亚,从那以后她就对火山着迷了)”可知,Carla Tiraboschi受Katia Krafft的事迹鼓舞,选择从事火山研究。故选D。 (本题10分)Are flash floods becoming more serious? According to the Environment Agency, around 5.2 million properties in England alone are at risk of flooding. Climate change is bringing more unpredictable weather patterns, such as wetter weather and rising sea level. Therefore, protecting yourselves from flooding has never been more important. Here are some things you can do. First, stay informed. Download the weather app and allow notices. The app will provide you with real-time weather warnings allowing you to take appropriate measures. Extreme weather events are an unstoppable force — sometimes leaving the area will be your only safe option. Second, know the level of risk by looking at flood maps. You may be required to have flood insurance if you live in a high-risk area. Third, create an emergency plan. Make sure you always keep emergency supplies to last several days, including a first aid kit. Having a way of recharging your mobile phone is worth considering too. But be particularly careful when travelling by car. Don’t drive through flooded streets — it’s difficult to judge the water depth, and roadways hidden below the water can collapse. If floodwaters cause your vehicle to lose control, give it up and seek the higher ground. Rapidly rising water can sweep the vehicle away. Plan for the worst; hope for the best. The Met Office predicted that extreme rainfall events could be four times as frequent by the 2070s compared to the 1980s. In the face of increasing climate-related challenges, adopting a proactive approach to flood protection seems increasingly advisable. 28.(10分)Why does the author ask the question in Paragraph 1? A.To confirm an idea. B.To introduce a topic. C.To conclude the text. D.To express some doubts. 29.What are the drivers especially advised to do when travelling? A.Avoid driving through the flooded streets. B.Get rid of necessary supplies if necessary. C.Purchase flood insurance in advance. D.Keep the weather app updated over time. 30.What kind of writing skill does the author use in the last paragraph? A.Analyzing causes. B.Quoting sayings. C.Describing processes. D.Making comparisons. 31.What is the best title for the text? A.What is a flash flood? B.Do flash floods need controlling? C.Are flash floods becoming more serious? D.How do we protect ourselves from flash floods? 【答案】28.B 29.A 30.D 31.D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章针对山洪是否变得更严重这一问题,介绍了洪水风险的现状,并提供了多条个人防洪避险的建议。 【详解】28.推理判断题。根据第一段中“Are flash floods becoming more serious?(山洪暴发是否正变得更加严重?)”以及后文“According to the Environment Agency, around 5.2 million properties in England alone are at risk of flooding.(根据环境署的数据,仅英格兰就有约520万处房产面临洪水风险)”和“Here are some things you can do.(以下是一些你可以做的事情)”可知,作者在第一段提出问题是为了引入本文关于防洪的话题。故选B项。 29.细节理解题。根据第五段中“But be particularly careful when travelling by car. Don’t drive through flooded streets — it’s difficult to judge the water depth, and roadways hidden below the water can collapse.(但在驾车出行时要特别小心。不要驾车驶过被淹没的街道——很难判断水深,水面下的道路可能会坍塌)”可知,特别建议司机在旅行时避免驾车通过被淹没的街道。故选A项。 30.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The Met Office predicted that extreme rainfall events could be four times as frequent by the 2070s compared to the 1980s.(英国气象局预测,到21世纪70年代,极端降雨事件的频率可能是20世纪80年代的四倍)”可知,作者将21世纪70年代与20世纪80年代的极端降雨事件频率进行了比较,运用了作比较的写作技巧。故选D项。 31.主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第一段中“Therefore, protecting yourselves from flooding has never been more important. Here are some things you can do.(因此,防范洪水比以往任何时候都更加重要。以下是一些你可以做的事情)”以及后文分点介绍的具体措施可知,本文主要介绍了如何保护自己免受山洪灾害。故D项“How do we protect ourselves from flash floods?(我们如何保护自己免受山洪灾害?)”能概括文章内容,最适合做文章标题。故选D项。 (本题10分)As wildfires spread across forests and grasslands, they give off large amounts of gases and tiny particles (颗粒) into the air. Scientists now believe we may not have fully understood how much pollution these fires cause. A study reported in Environmental Science & Technology shows that wildfires around the world likely produce far more gases that harm air quality than earlier studies had suggested. The research also points out that in several areas, pollution from fires joins together with pollution from human activities, making air quality worse. Every year, wildfires burn through huge areas of plants, sending a complex mix of chemicals into the atmosphere. These include VOCs that easily form in the air, plus IVOCs and SVOCs, which need higher heat to turn into gas and more readily become tiny particles. When people breathe in these particles, they can be harmful to health. However, they are often not studied when scientists look at what wildfires release (排放). Their large quantity and chemical complexity make measurement difficult, leading past assessments to focus primarily on VOCs. To solve this problem, Shuxiao Wang’s team tried to include IVOCs and SVOCs along with VOCs in their study to better understand how wildfires affect air quality, human health, and the climate. The team first analyzed a global database of burnt land from 1997 to 2023. Then they collected information about the chemicals released when different plants burn. When they could not get direct measurements from real fires, they used lab experiments to estimate the chemicals produced. By putting all this information together, they worked out yearly worldwide wildfire emissions (排放). The results showed that wild land fires released an average of 143 million tons of chemicals yearly — about 21% higher than previous estimates. The team also found that although human activities produce more pollution overall, both wildfires and human activities release similar amounts of IVOCs and SVOCs. This finding highlights the greater-than-expected role of wildfires, particularly through IVOC and SVOC emissions, in reducing air quality. Different plans are needed to reduce pollution from both wildfires and human activities. 32.(10分)What does the author want to point out in paragraph 1? A.Wildfires are spreading faster than before. B.Wildfires are the main cause of air pollution. C.Human activities pollute the air more than wildfires. D.Fire-related air pollution is more serious than known. 33.Why were IVOCs and SVOCs often left out in earlier studies? A.They are hard to measure accurately. B.They disappear quickly in the air. C.Their effect on climate is insignificant. D.Their existence remained unknown. 34.Which best describes the study led by Shuxiao Wang’s team? A.Thorough and data-driven. B.Regional but well-recorded. C.Theoretical and model-based. D.Limited but system-building. 35.What can be concluded from the last paragraph? A.Current policies fully control wildfire pollution. B.Wildfires and human activities require emission cuts. C.More research is needed on chemicals emissions. D.Reducing human-caused pollution is less essential. 【答案】32.D 33.A 34.A 35.B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。研究发现野火造成的空气污染远超此前认知,此前研究因难测量忽略了部分有害物,研究团队经全面数据分析得出野火排放量更高,且野火与人类活动均需减排。 32.推理判断题。根据第一段“Scientists now believe we may not have fully understood how much pollution these fires cause. A study reported in Environmental Science & Technology shows that wildfires around the world likely produce far more gases that harm air quality than earlier studies had suggested.(如今,科学家们认为我们可能尚未完全了解这些火灾所造成的污染程度。《环境科学与技术》杂志上发表的一项研究显示,全球范围内的野火所排放的有害气体量可能远超此前研究的估计值)”可知,作者在第一段中想要说明与火灾相关的空气污染程度比已知情况更为严重。故选D。 33.细节理解题。根据第二段“Their large quantity and chemical complexity make measurement difficult, leading past assessments to focus primarily on VOCs.(它们的数量庞大且化学结构复杂,这使得测量工作变得十分困难,因此过去的评估主要集中在半挥发性有机化合物(VOCs)方面)”可知,在早期的研究中,中等挥发性有机化合物(IVOCs)和半挥发性有机化合物(SVOCs)常常被忽略不计是因为它们难以精确测量。故选A。 34.推理判断题。根据第三段“The team first analyzed a global database of burnt land from 1997 to 2023. Then they collected information about the chemicals released when different plants burn. When they could not get direct measurements from real fires, they used lab experiments to estimate the chemicals produced. By putting all this information together, they worked out yearly worldwide wildfire emissions (排放).(该团队首先分析了1997年至2023年全球范围内的烧毁土地数据库。然后,他们收集了不同植物燃烧时释放出的化学物质的相关信息。当无法从实际火灾中获得直接测量数据时,他们通过实验室实验来估算所产生的化学物质。将所有这些信息汇总起来后,他们计算出了全球每年的野火排放量)”可知,王舒晓团队所开展的研究是全面且基于数据的。故选A。 35.推理判断题。根据最后一段“The team also found that although human activities produce more pollution overall, both wildfires and human activities release similar amounts of IVOCs and SVOCs. This finding highlights the greater-than-expected role of wildfires, particularly through IVOC and SVOC emissions, in reducing air quality. Different plans are needed to reduce pollution from both wildfires and human activities.(该团队还发现,尽管人类活动总体上造成了更多的污染,但野火和人类活动所释放的 IVOCs(中等挥发性有机化合物)和 SVOCs(半挥发性有机化合物)的量是相当的。这一发现凸显了野火在降低空气质量方面所起的作用超出预期,尤其是通过 IVOC 和 SVOC 的排放来实现的。需要制定不同的计划来减少来自野火和人类活动的污染)”可知,火灾与人类活动都需要减少排放。故选B。 (本题12.5分)How to Stay Safe During a Typhoon When a typhoon strikes, the world outside can change from calm to dangerous in just a few minutes. The sky darkens, the wind grows wild, and heavy rain begins to fall with great force. 36(12.5分) But staying calm and taking the right actions can make a big difference. Stay indoors and keep away from windows During a typhoon, the safest place is always indoors. Once the storm begins, do not go outside, not even for a short look. Close all windows and doors tightly, and stay away from glass, which may break when hit by strong wind or flying objects. 37 Waiting indoors may feel long and boring, but it protects you from real danger outside. Be mindful of electricity and stay alert (警觉的) 38 If water begins to enter your home, turn off the main power in no time. Avoid touching wet plugs, wires, or electrical devices. Listen carefully to what’s happening around you. Sometimes a strange sound or sudden silence can mean trouble is near. During a typhoon, attention saves more than strength does. Follow official warnings and remain patient A typhoon can change direction or strength at any time. Follow the advice of local governments, even if the weather seems calmer for a moment. If the sky suddenly becomes calm, don’t be fooled — it is the “eye” of the typhoon that passes by. 39 So you should stay patient and wait for official news. Stay calm and support each other No one can stop the storm, but you can control how you face it. Take deep breaths, speak gently, and try to calm those around you. Help children, the elderly, or neighbors who might be alone. Courage grows when people care for each other. 40 A.The worst of the storm may be over. B.It is normal to feel fear at such a moment. C.Kindness stands even in the strongest wind. D.The wind can return even harder than before. E.You need to learn to fix the electricity by yourself.

The views from the top of the mountain were breathtaking. In all directions, valleys, forests and other mountains were laid out before them. They could even see the small wooden houses of the village where they had spent the night and the route they had taken to reach the top of this small but dangerous mountain. Laughing loudly, they were surprised at their courage in climbing such a steep and rocky mountain slope. Filled with an enormous sense of achievement, the four young climbers patted each other on the back. As the other three continued to enjoy the views, Jason, the leader of the group, stared at the horizon with a troubled look on his face. “What is it, Jason?” Sofia, the youngest of the group, asked. “Those dark clouds in the distance mean a heavy storm is fast on the way,” Jason replied. He remembered the villagers had warned him of the unpredictable weather conditions on top of the mountain and that a terrible storm could appear from nowhere. “But it’s so warm and sunny here. I don’t think the storm is coming this way,” Sofia said, more in hope than expectation. However, Jason feared the worst and knew only too well what would happen if the storm caught them in the open. He addressed the group in a calm but serious tone, “If the storm hits us, the temperature will fall dramatically. The rain and mist will make it difficult for us to see where we are going and we could easily get lost or fall off a cliff. The wind will take our strength, so we need to get moving fast.” The four mountain climbers packed up their facilities and immediately started back down the mountain. Unfortunately, despite their best efforts, the storm was upon them sooner than expected. The wind screamed in their ears, the driving rain stung (刺痛) their eyes and the mist made it impossible for them to see clearly. 注意:1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With it getting dark, Jason decided that it was just too dangerous to continue. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the storm showed signs of stopping and the climbers stepped out of the shelter. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】       With it getting dark, Jason decided that it was just too dangerous to continue. He gathered the group in the shelter of a large rock, where he noticed that the other three were frightened and looking to him for a way out. Pushed by responsibility and pressure of leadership, Jason, shouting against the wind, explained that the safest thing for the moment was taking shelter from the pouring rain. They had expected that the storm would pass very soon. However, as darkness settled over them, the shower swept in. How time dragged!        Finally, the storm showed signs of stopping and the climbers stepped out of the shelter. Unbearably cold and hungry, they felt their way downward with great difficulty, eager for a miracle. Suddenly, something caught Jason’s eye. Was it a flash of light? There it was again…and another! In response, Jason immediately flashed his torch, exclaiming, “Over here! We are here!” His companions joined in. Rescue eventually arrived. Seeing the climbers, all the searching villagers breathed a sigh of relief and lovingly helped them return to the village. You see, weather changes but love remains 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了四名登山者在登山的时候遭遇了暴风雨,被困在了户外。多亏了领队Jason冷静应对,带领大家躲雨,最终坚持到了救援人员到来。 【详解】1.段落续写: ①由第一段首句内容“随着天色渐黑,Jason觉得继续下去太危险了。”可知,第一段可描写Jason在责任和领导压力的推动下为大家寻找避雨处。 ②由第二段首句内容“最后,风暴显示出停止的迹象,登山者走出了避难所。”可知,第二段可描写登山者下山时遇到了赶来的救援人员。 2.续写线索:登山者害怕——寻找避雨处——躲雨等雨停——雨停——开始下山——遇到救援人员——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①注意到:notice/ observe ②预期:expect/anticipate ③看见:see/spot/catch sight of 情绪类 ①害怕:frightened /scared ②渴望:eager for /long for 【点睛】[高分句型1]  He gathered the group in the shelter of a large rock, where he noticed that the other three were frightened and looking to him for a way out.
