四、阅读理解
It’s easy to think“that will never happen to me”, but natural disasters are becoming both more common (常见) and serious. Millions of families face floods, tornadoes and other natural disasters every year. In Australia, for example, its wildfires from 2019 to 2020 were caused by the high temperature and a drought (干旱). They took away the lives of hundreds of people and billions of animals!
While you can’t stop disasters from happening, you can stay safe during one if you know what to do.
Flood
Floods can happen very suddenly. Flood water can be deeper than it looks. It can carry you away, so stay away! Glass, snakes, and dirty things can be in flood water, so don’t drink it even if you are thirsty.
Tornado
A tornado happens during some storms. If there’s a tornado warning, go someplace, such as a small and sturdy (结实的) bathroom, which is safe from the wind and flying things. Remember to keep away from windows or anything heavy that might fall on you.
Earthquake
You should move away from things that might fall. Get down under something that’s strong if you can’t rush out of the building right away. Protect your neck and head with your arms. If you’re outside, go to an open space. Stay away from trees or anything that might fall off and hurt you.
Bushfire
Bushfires, also known as wildfires, are common across the world during the scorching days. It is important that you try to stay calm.Some fires can start so quickly that they threaten homes and people within minutes, so your safest choice is always to leave early.
29.The writer talks about Australian wildfires to show ________.
A.wildfires are far away from us
B.Australians are now in great danger
C.high temperature and a drought cause wildfires
D.natural disasters are becoming more and more serious
30.What does the underlined word“scorching”mean?
A.stormy B.rainy C.hot D.cold
31.When disasters happen, what can we do to keep safe?
A.Stay away from windows when a tornado comes.
B.Drink flood water if we are thirsty when a flood happens.
C.Stop moving and wait for other people’s help in a bushfire.
D.Stay under the trees after getting out of buildings in an earthquake.
32.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Why natural disasters happen
B.How to keep safe in natural disasters
C.What natural disasters bring to humans
D.How to name different natural disasters
五、任务型阅读
There was a little boy whose name was Peter. He lived in a village close to the sea. The villagers built sea walls to keep sea water from the doors of the houses. But once the sea walls almost put the village in great danger.
One day, Peter was walking on his way back home along the sea wall when it began to rain.
All of a sudden, he saw a hole in the wall, from which sea water was running. Peter shouted for help but no answer came. He realized he should do something else as quickly as possible, or sea water could be pouring over the whole village. He started to rush towards his village. At the same time, the rain became heavier and heavier.
It was getting dark, but Peter rushed on and on. He felt cold and hungry. In the rainstorm, he fell down over and over again. Many times he thought about giving up, but he fought on. He remembered his father’s words, “Lots of strong men have made every effort to build the walls which can keep the village safe from danger. The sea walls are really important.”
Finally, when the boy’s father saw him, Peter had been black and blue all over. The boy told the villagers what had happened to the sea wall. They repaired it in time. “Thanks to Peter, the village was saved,” they praised Peter. All the villagers called him “Peter the Guard” from then on. Peter’s parents were really proud of him!
根据短文内容,回答问题。每题答案不超过7个词。
33.Where did Peter live?
34.What did Peter do first after he saw a hole in the wall?
35.How did Peter feel when he rushed on and on?

【详解】29.第一段指出:“natural disasters are becoming both more common (常见) and serious... In Australia, for example...”,作者以澳大利亚的山火为例,是为了具体说明自然灾害正变得越来越严重这一观点。故选D。
30.最后一段提到:“Bushfires, also known as wildfires, are common across the world during the scorching days.”,结合常识,山火通常发生在天气非常炎热干燥的日子里,因此“scorching”的意思是“炎热的”。故选C。
31.第四段关于龙卷风提到:“Remember to keep away from windows or anything heavy that might fall on you.”,说明龙卷风来临时应远离窗户。选项B(喝洪水)与第二段“don’t drink it”矛盾;选项C(山火中停止移动等待救援)与第四段“your safest choice is always to leave early”矛盾;选项D(地震后待在树下)与第三段“Stay away from trees”矛盾。故选A。
32.通读全文,文章在引出自然灾害这一话题后,主体部分分别介绍了在洪水、龙卷风、地震和山火中如何保证安全的具体做法(如“you can stay safe during one if you know what to do”),因此“如何在自然灾害中保持安全”最适合作为文章标题。故选B。
33.In a village close to the sea. 34.He shouted for help. 35.He felt cold and hungry. 36.His father. 37.Because he saved the village.
