It destroyed hundreds of houses and cut off the only road into the town. Within hours, rescue teams from several countries arrived to help the local people who had lost their homes. The first task was to search for survivors under the fallen buildings. Trained dogs and special cameras helped the workers find people who were still alive. More than forty people were saved in the first two days, including a young boy who had been trapped under the ruins for eighteen hours. International teams also brought useful experience. A Japanese engineer explained how to make quick shelters from metal pipes and strong cloth. A German doctor taught local nurses how to treat injuries when there was no electricity. Ideas and skills from different countries were shared freely. Rebuilding the town took much longer than the rescue work. Local people and foreign helpers worked side by side to build new homes with brick and wood. They also rebuilt the school, which soon became a place where children could feel safe again. From this disaster, people learned an important lesson. No single country has enough wisdom or power to face nature alone. When nations unify their efforts, share their knowledge and act quickly, more lives can be saved and hope can be reborn. 26．What happened to the town during the earthquake? A．Its only road was cut off. B．All its houses stayed standing. C．It was hit by a big flood. D．Most people moved to the city. 27．How were the people still alive under the buildings found? A．Local people dug with their hands. B．Trained dogs and special cameras helped. C．The teams waited for the rain to stop. D．A young boy showed the workers the way. 28．What did the Japanese engineer help to do? A．He treated the injured people in the town. B．He helped the children go back to school. C．He showed how to make quick shelters. D．He looked for survivors in the ruins. 29．Why did the rebuilding take a long time? A．There were not enough workers in the town. B．Local people did not want to help others. C．The government stopped the work for years. D．It was a much bigger task than the rescue. 30．What is the main lesson people learned? A．Earthquakes can never be predicted at all. B．Nations working together can save more lives. C．Foreign helpers should do all the hard work. D．Small towns are always safer than big cities. 五、阅读七选五 Natural disasters have always been part of human history. We cannot stop an earthquake or a hurricane, but we are not helpless.    31     Over the years, people have found many ways to live more safely with the forces of nature. The first step is warning. Today, scientists use satellites and computers to watch the earth and the sea.    32     A few extra minutes can give families time to run to a safe place or leave a danger zone. The second step is prevention. In many cities, new buildings are built to be stronger than older ones.    33     In the countryside, people plant trees on the hills to stop landslides and floods. The third step is education. Schools now hold drills so that children know what to do when the ground shakes.    34     A person who has practised once is far less likely to panic in a real emergency. Finally, we need each other. After a disaster, strangers often become helpers, and neighbours share food and water.    35     That is how communities grow stronger after the storm has passed. A．When danger comes, they can send warnings to millions of phones in seconds. B．This simple practice can save lives when an earthquake strikes. C．Some of them are even designed to move gently without falling down. D．Living near the sea is far more dangerous than living in the mountains. E．We can learn to understand them and to prepare for them. F．Money spent on new machines is always money well spent. G．That spirit of unity is the greatest strength a community can have. 参考答案 1．flood 2．brick 3．metal 4．percent 5．bury 6．breathe 7．whistle 8．power 9．wisdom 10．effort 11．that 12．who 13．damaged 14．electricity 15．revived 16．emergencies 17．released 18．swept 19．survivors 20．effective 21． as if 22． calm down 23． in the open air 24． take effect 25． volcanic eruption 26．A 27．B 28．C 29．D 30．B 26．细节理解题。根据第一段“It destroyed hundreds of houses and cut off the only road into the town.(它摧毁了数百座房屋，并切断了进入该镇的唯一道路)”可知，地震切断了小镇唯一的道路。故选A。 27．细节理解题。根据第二段“Trained dogs and special cameras helped the workers find people who were still alive.(训练有素的搜救犬和特殊的摄像机帮助救援人员找到还活着的人)”可知，是靠搜救犬和摄像机找到生还者的。故选B。 28．细节理解题。根据第三段“A Japanese engineer explained how to make quick shelters from metal pipes and strong cloth.(一位日本工程师讲解了如何用金属管和结实的布快速搭建避难所)”可知，他教人们如何搭建临时避难所。故选C。 29．细节理解题。根据第四段“Rebuilding the town took much longer than the rescue work.(重建小镇所用的时间比救援工作长得多)”可知，重建是一项比救援大得多的任务。故选D。 30．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“When nations unify their efforts, share their knowledge and act quickly, more lives can be saved and hope can be reborn.(当各国齐心协力、分享知识并迅速行动时，就能挽救更多生命，希望也能重生)”可知，各国携手合作能挽救更多生命。故选B。 31．E 32．A 33．C 34．B 35．G 31．上文“We cannot stop an earthquake or a hurricane, but we are not helpless.(我们无法阻止地震或飓风，但我们也并非无能为力)”说明人类虽无法阻止灾害，却可以有所作为，E选项“We can learn to understand them and to prepare for them.(我们可以学着了解它们并为它们做好准备)”承接上文，并引出下文的防灾方法。故选E。 32．上文“Today, scientists use satellites and computers to watch the earth and the sea.(如今，科学家利用卫星和计算机观测地球和海洋)”讲的是科学家监测灾害，A选项“When danger comes, they can send warnings to millions of phones in seconds.(当危险来临时，他们能在几秒钟内向数百万部手机发送预警)”承接上文，与下文“多出的几分钟”相呼应。故选A。 33．上文“In many cities, new buildings are built to be stronger than older ones.(在许多城市，新建筑造得比旧建筑更坚固)”讲的是建筑防震，C选项“Some of them are even designed to move gently without falling down.(其中一些甚至被设计成能轻微晃动而不倒塌)”承接上文，继续说明新建筑的设计。故选C。 34．上文“Schools now hold drills so that children know what to do when the ground shakes.(如今学校举行演练，让孩子们知道地面震动时该怎么做)”讲的是防灾演练，B选项“This simple practice can save lives when an earthquake strikes.(当地震发生时，这种简单的练习能够挽救生命)”承接上文，总结演练的意义。故选B。 35．上文“After a disaster, strangers often become helpers, and neighbours share food and water.(灾难过后，陌生人常常成为帮手，邻里之间分享食物和水)”讲的是互助，G选项“That spirit of unity is the greatest strength a community can have.(这种团结的精神是一个社区所能拥有的最大力量)”承接上文，总结本段。故选G。 第1页 第1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
