Farmers noticed that the well walls had deep cracks in them. A smelly gas came out of the cracks. In the farmyards, the chickens and even the pigs were too nervous to eat. Mice ran out of the fields looking for places to hide. Fish jumped out of their bowls and ponds. At about 3:00 am on July 28, 1976, some people saw bright lights in the sky. The sound of planes could be heard outside the city of Tangshan even when no planes were in the sky. In the city, the water pipes in some buildings cracked and burst, but the one million people of the city, who thought little of these events, were asleep as usual that night. At 3:42 am, the 20th century’s greatest earthquake hit, shaking even Beijing 100 km away. A huge 8-kilometre-long, 30-metre-wide crack cut across the city. In just 15 seconds, the city lay in ruins. Two-thirds of people were dead or injured, with the number of victims over 400,000. Thousands of families were lost and many children left parentless. The survivors in Tangshan were shocked to see almost everything destroyed: all hospitals, 75% of factories and buildings, 90% of homes gone, dams and bridges fallen, railway tracks useless, and countless livestock dead. Later that afternoon, another strong quake struck. Rescue workers and doctors were trapped, more buildings collapsed, and water, food and electricity became hard to get, leaving people wondering how long the disaster would last. All hope was not lost. Soon after the quakes, the army sent 150,000 soldiers to Tangshan to help the rescue workers. Hundreds of thousands of people were helped. The army organized teams to dig out those who were trapped and to bury the dead. To the north of the city, most of the 10,000 miners were rescued from the coal mines there. Workers built shelters for survivors whose homes had been destroyed. Fresh water was taken to the city by train, truck and plane. Slowly, the city began to breathe again. 24．(2.5分)What’s the main idea of the text? A．A terrible earthquake of Tangshan. B．Before the earthquake of Tangshan. C．During the earthquake of Tangshan. D．Damages of the earthquake of Tangshan. 25．(2.5分)Which animal was nervous and didn’t want to eat? A．Cows and sheep. B．Mice and fish. C．Chickens and pigs. D．Dogs and cats. 26．(2.5分)Who came to help Tangshan after the earthquake? A．Officer. B．The army. C．Farmers. D．Teachers. 27．(2.5分)What’s the meaning of the underlined sentence “Slowly, the city began to breathe again.”? A．People weren’t sad any more. B．The life in Tangshan began to return to normal. C．The earthquake finally came to an end. D．Those who were trapped were saved. （本题10分）A new study from Tel Aviv University (TAU) has found that the smartphones we all carry in our pockets could help collect weather data from the public to provide early warnings for wildfires and other extreme weather conditions. Professor Colin Price from TAU used data collected from the global public via the WeatherSignal app to develop a methodology for assessing wildfire risk. All smartphones are equipped with multiple micro-sensors capable of collecting important environmental data, such as temperature, humidity (湿度), light, location, and more. These data can warn us when the battery overheats or the device absorbs moisture (水分) — all in real time. Today, millions or even billions of data points are collected worldwide every day by our smartphones. Early warning systems in remote forested areas typically lack data due to the absence of weather stations in remote locations. The public, however, take their smartphones everywhere, with each phone containing micro-sensors that operate continuously in the background. One key factor determining the likelihood of a wildfire is the moisture content in vegetation (植被), which, in turn, is determined by the temperature and relative humidity of the surrounding air. Both of them can be easily obtained from the public’s smartphones. But smartphone data do contain errors. The temperature might be influenced by the air-conditioners, while the humidity sensor might identify moisture when the user is taking a shower. Fortunately, researchers say the huge amount of data collected from smartphones allow us to remove abnormal data, and this procedure turned out to be relatively straightforward. The researchers analyzed two major wildfire events: fires in Israel in November 2016 and the massive fire in Portugal in July 2013. The results were surprising, with smartphone data showing significant abnormal signs before and during these major fires. “Given the rapid increase in the number of smartphones worldwide, we propose making efficient use of this data source to provide better early warnings to the public and disaster managers about natural disasters,” Professor Price concludes. 28．(2.5分)What can the smartphone data be used for according to the study? A．Finding a solution to climate change. B．Identifying where the fire has occurred. C．Supporting early warnings for water crisis. D．Forecasting wildfire and weather disasters. 29．(2.5分)What can be inferred about the smartphone data from paragraph 3? A．It is difficult to be used globally. B．It can be applied to a broader range. C．It is unavailable in remote areas. D．It is more accurate than weather report. 30．(2.5分)Why are there errors in the collected data? A．It is easily affected by the environment. B．The electronic data itself is unstable. C．The technical procedure is too complicated. D．It is influenced by the people around. 31．(2.5分)Why does the author mention “the massive fire in Portugal”? A．To show the frequency of abnormal signs. B．To introduce a severe wildfire. C．To prove the usefulness of smartphone data. D．To explain the cause of the fire. （本题10分）When natural disasters occur — wildfires, floods, earthquakes, tsunamis — every minute counts. Today, advanced technology is reshaping how we predict (预测), monitor, and respond to disasters, saving countless lives and reducing damage worldwide. From artificial intelligence (AI) to drones (无人机) and robotics, technology is helping build a stronger planet. Artificial intelligence processes millions of data points — weather patterns, soil wetness, earthquake activity, historical disaster records — to predict risks more correctly than ever before. Machine learning models predict wildfire paths, hurricane strength, and flood areas days in advance. In Japan, AI systems check early signs of earthquakes and give warnings seconds before shaking arrives, enough time for people to take cover. Google’s Crisis Response uses AI to map damaged areas and direct aid within hours of a disaster. Drones fly into dangerous areas — burning forests, flooded cities, broken buildings — to take clear images, locate survivors, and check damage without risking human lives. Robotic dogs and snake-like robots move through the remains to find trapped people. Underwater drones examine damaged ports and oil rigs after storms. Modern warning systems push real-time warnings to smartphones, radios, and TVs. In the U.S., the Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) system sends tsunami, hurricane, and wildfire warnings to every mobile phone in a danger area. In India, the National Disaster Management Authority uses SMS and app warnings to reach remote villages, cutting the warning delays (延误) from hours to minutes. Scientists agree technology cannot stop natural disasters — but it can significantly reduce their impact. “We used to react to disasters; now we predict and prepare,” says Dr. Elena, a climate scientist at the University of California. “Technology gives us the time to act.” As climate change increases disaster frequency, these tools will become even more important for protecting lives and livelihoods worldwide. 32．(2.5分)What can be inferred about AI in Paragraph 2? A．It makes predictions based on big data. B．It provides aid directly to damaged areas. C．It reduces the number of natural disasters. D．It prevents natural disasters from happening. 33．(2.5分)Why are the US and India mentioned in Paragraph 4? A．To stress the importance of mobile phones. B．To compare different disasters in the two countries. C．To introduce advanced technology developed there. D．To prove the effectiveness of modern warning systems. 34．(2.5分)According to Dr. Elena, how can technology protect lives and livelihoods? A．By buying people time to prepare. B．By reacting quickly after disasters. C．By replacing humans in rescue. D．By reducing the disaster frequency. 35．(2.5分)Which is the most suitable title for the text? A．Importance of Early Warning Systems B．Development of Disaster Prevention Measures C．Technology: A Safeguard against Natural Disasters D．Drones and Robotics: A Tool for Locating Survivors （本题12.5分）We’re told to buy environmentally friendly cars and change the old electrical items in our home. But what if you’re a teenager and not in control of such things? Worse — your parents have more important things to worry about than global warming (全球变暖). 36(2.5分) But you’re completely wrong; there are many things you can do. Take a shower instead of a bath.When taking a shower, don’t use too much time. Try to keep it below 10 minutes. 37(2.5分) Make it a kind of game, trying to beat your old “score” every time you take a shower. 38(2.5分) For example, buy recyclable pens that could be filled with ink (油墨) rather than pens that get thrown away after being used. If you have papers, bottles or whatever, don’t throw them away. Instead, send them to the recycling company in your area. Talk about pollution and global warming with your parents. 39(2.5分) They wouldn’t mind a few suggestions every now and again. So be patient and influence them gradually. Then you might find they will be interested in living a green life. Haven’t got any ideas for your birthday presents? 40(2.5分) Recycled notebooks or solar-powered chargers...There are lots of useful and green things you can buy. And there will be an added warm feeling on your birthday. A．Consider a green idea. B．You don’t use so much energy. C．Try buying things that could be recycled. D．Don’t turn the heat all the way up，either. E．You might think as a teen，you can’t do much to help. F．Many adults don’t care about environmental protection. G．Don’t push them to be greener because that may make them angry. 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.

Most people would try to leave the building. I live on 58(1.5分) third floor of a flat with several more stories above me — nobody wants 59(1.5分) (trap) under that after an earthquake. I guess, if an earthquake came, I would probably just panic rather than think about what I need to do, such as hiding somewhere or 60(1.5分) (run) out of the building. I had never felt an earthquake until last week. There was a small earthquake 61(1.5分) could hardly even be called an earthquake. I was not really 62(1.5分) (frighten). To feel the earth move like that was just strange. Of course, it 63(1.5分) (last) only a few seconds. I have spoken to the local people since the event and 64(1.5分) (luck), there were no injuries or damage 65(1.5分) (do) by it.

Mary swiftly threw herself into her Mum’s arms, burying her face into her chest and trembling with fright. “I think we should leave here right away!” She murmured in a crying tone. Instantly, Dad refused her request again for the fact that the city had already been flooded severely. As he saw through their window, the almost three-meter-high floodwater had already surrounded the apartment building like a wide river, several cars floating on it just like boats. “Black out!” Mary gasped fearfully, the wind roaring and the rain beating on the roof and windows, which made her even more nervous in the whole darkness. Mum took Mary’s hand and carefully led her to sit on the sofa, trying her best to comfort her. While she performed calmly, Mary could tell she was nervous too. “Let’s try to find a light source first and then see what other supplies we have.” Dad made an arrangement. Luckily, there was a flashlight, some packages of instant noodles, bread and some drinking water, which may help them get through the toughness for the half of the night. Without saying a single word, Dad turned on the flashlight, sat down and hugged his wife and daughter. The sudden silence in the house seemed to make the wind and rain more frightening outside. Only the light of the flashlight could now give them some warmth and a sense of little hope. “What about Mrs. Thomson? Old and weak, she must be extremely helpless.” Mum said with great concern when she thought about their nice neighbor who lived alone upstairs of the same building. After a brief discussion, Mum and Dad decided they should go and check whether Mrs. Thomson was fine. Mary, with heavy breath and pounding heart, stood up immediately, ready to bring all their supplies to Mrs. Thomson’s house.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。 In the darkness, they supported each other and went upstairs step by step with the light of the flashlight. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Suddenly, a bunch of searching light from a rescue boat flashed across Mrs. Thomson’s window. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高中英语单元测试 —— Unit 5 Humans and Nature 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、听力选择题 1．（本题1.5分）When did the fire happen?

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.

For three days the water in the village wells rose and fell, rose and fell. Farmers noticed that the well walls had deep cracks in them. A smelly gas came out of the cracks. In the farmyards, the chickens and even the pigs were too nervous to eat. Mice ran out of the fields looking for places to hide. Fish jumped out of their bowls and ponds. At about 3:00 am on July 28, 1976, some people saw bright lights in the sky. The sound of planes could be heard outside the city of Tangshan even when no planes were in the sky. In the city, the water pipes in some buildings cracked and burst, but the one million people of the city, who thought little of these events, were asleep as usual that night. At 3:42 am, the 20th century’s greatest earthquake hit, shaking even Beijing 100 km away. A huge 8-kilometre-long, 30-metre-wide crack cut across the city. In just 15 seconds, the city lay in ruins. Two-thirds of people were dead or injured, with the number of victims over 400,000. Thousands of families were lost and many children left parentless. The survivors in Tangshan were shocked to see almost everything destroyed: all hospitals, 75% of factories and buildings, 90% of homes gone, dams and bridges fallen, railway tracks useless, and countless livestock dead. Later that afternoon, another strong quake struck. Rescue workers and doctors were trapped, more buildings collapsed, and water, food and electricity became hard to get, leaving people wondering how long the disaster would last. All hope was not lost. Soon after the quakes, the army sent 150,000 soldiers to Tangshan to help the rescue workers. Hundreds of thousands of people were helped. The army organized teams to dig out those who were trapped and to bury the dead. To the north of the city, most of the 10,000 miners were rescued from the coal mines there. Workers built shelters for survivors whose homes had been destroyed. Fresh water was taken to the city by train, truck and plane. Slowly, the city began to breathe again. 24．(2.5分)What’s the main idea of the text? A．A terrible earthquake of Tangshan. B．Before the earthquake of Tangshan. C．During the earthquake of Tangshan. D．Damages of the earthquake of Tangshan. 25．(2.5分)Which animal was nervous and didn’t want to eat? A．Cows and sheep. B．Mice and fish. C．Chickens and pigs. D．Dogs and cats. 26．(2.5分)Who came to help Tangshan after the earthquake? A．Officer. B．The army. C．Farmers. D．Teachers. 27．(2.5分)What’s the meaning of the underlined sentence “Slowly, the city began to breathe again.”? A．People weren’t sad any more. B．The life in Tangshan began to return to normal. C．The earthquake finally came to an end. D．Those who were trapped were saved. 【答案】24．A 25．C 26．B 27．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了1976年唐山大地震前的异常征兆、地震造成的惨重破坏，以及震后军队救援助力城市逐步恢复的情况。 【详解】24．主旨大意题。根据第二段“At 3:42 am, the 20th century’s greatest earthquake hit, shaking even Beijing 100 km away.(凌晨3点42分，20世纪最大的地震来袭，甚至使100公里外的北京震动)”以及文章内容可知，本文依次讲述了唐山大地震前的异常现象、地震发生时的破坏、震后的灾情及救援重建，全面围绕可怕的唐山大地震展开。故选A。 25．细节理解题。根据第一段“In the farmyards, the chickens and even the pigs were too nervous to eat. (在农家院子里，鸡甚至猪都紧张得不吃东西)”可知，紧张到不愿进食的动物是鸡和猪。故选C。 26．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Soon after the quakes, the army sent 150,000 soldiers to Tangshan to help the rescue workers. (地震发生后不久，军队派出15万名士兵前往唐山协助救援人员)”可知，震后前来帮助唐山的是军队。故选B。 27．词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Soon after the quakes, the army sent 150,000 soldiers to Tangshan to help the rescue workers. Hundreds of thousands of people were helped. The army organized teams to dig out those who were trapped and to bury the dead. To the north of the city, most of the 10,000 miners were rescued from the coal mines there. Workers built shelters for survivors whose homes had been destroyed. Fresh water was taken to the city by train, truck and plane.(地震发生后不久，军队派遣了15万名士兵前往唐山帮助救援人员。数十万人得到了帮助。军队组织小组挖出被困人员并埋葬死者。在城市北部，1万名矿工中的大多数都是从那里的煤矿中获救的。工人们为房屋被毁的幸存者建造了避难所。淡水通过火车、卡车和飞机运往城市)”可知，文章提到军队救援、挖掘被困者、掩埋死者、营救矿工、搭建避难所、运送淡水等恢复措施，由此推知“Slowly, the city began to breathe again. (慢慢地，这座城市开始重新呼吸)”指的是唐山的生活逐渐回归正常。故选B。 （本题10分）A new study from Tel Aviv University (TAU) has found that the smartphones we all carry in our pockets could help collect weather data from the public to provide early warnings for wildfires and other extreme weather conditions. Professor Colin Price from TAU used data collected from the global public via the WeatherSignal app to develop a methodology for assessing wildfire risk. All smartphones are equipped with multiple micro-sensors capable of collecting important environmental data, such as temperature, humidity (湿度), light, location, and more. These data can warn us when the battery overheats or the device absorbs moisture (水分) — all in real time. Today, millions or even billions of data points are collected worldwide every day by our smartphones. Early warning systems in remote forested areas typically lack data due to the absence of weather stations in remote locations. The public, however, take their smartphones everywhere, with each phone containing micro-sensors that operate continuously in the background. One key factor determining the likelihood of a wildfire is the moisture content in vegetation (植被), which, in turn, is determined by the temperature and relative humidity of the surrounding air. Both of them can be easily obtained from the public’s smartphones. But smartphone data do contain errors. The temperature might be influenced by the air-conditioners, while the humidity sensor might identify moisture when the user is taking a shower. Fortunately, researchers say the huge amount of data collected from smartphones allow us to remove abnormal data, and this procedure turned out to be relatively straightforward. The researchers analyzed two major wildfire events: fires in Israel in November 2016 and the massive fire in Portugal in July 2013. The results were surprising, with smartphone data showing significant abnormal signs before and during these major fires. “Given the rapid increase in the number of smartphones worldwide, we propose making efficient use of this data source to provide better early warnings to the public and disaster managers about natural disasters,” Professor Price concludes. 28．(2.5分)What can the smartphone data be used for according to the study? A．Finding a solution to climate change. B．Identifying where the fire has occurred. C．Supporting early warnings for water crisis. D．Forecasting wildfire and weather disasters. 29．(2.5分)What can be inferred about the smartphone data from paragraph 3? A．It is difficult to be used globally. B．It can be applied to a broader range. C．It is unavailable in remote areas. D．It is more accurate than weather report. 30．(2.5分)Why are there errors in the collected data? A．It is easily affected by the environment. B．The electronic data itself is unstable. C．The technical procedure is too complicated. D．It is influenced by the people around. 31．(2.5分)Why does the author mention “the massive fire in Portugal”? A．To show the frequency of abnormal signs. B．To introduce a severe wildfire. C．To prove the usefulness of smartphone data. D．To explain the cause of the fire. 【答案】28．D 29．B 30．A 31．C 【导语】文章主要介绍一项新研究，智能手机内置传感器可收集环境气象数据，能够助力野火与极端天气预警，同时数据存在误差但可修正，实例也证实该数据具备实用价值。 【详解】28．细节理解题。根据原文第一段“A new study from Tel Aviv University (TAU) has found that the smartphones we all carry in our pockets could help collect weather data from the public to provide early warnings for wildfires and other extreme weather conditions.(特拉维夫大学的一项新研究发现，我们随身携带的智能手机有助于收集公众气象数据，为野火以及其他极端天气灾害提供预警。)”可知，手机数据可以预测野火与气象灾害。 29．推理判断题。根据原文第三段“Today, millions or even billions of data points are collected worldwide every day by our smartphones.(如今，全球范围内每天都会通过手机收集数以百万乃至数十亿条数据信息。)”可知，手机数据能够被大范围运用。 30．细节理解题。根据原文第四段“The temperature might be influenced by the air-conditioners, while the humidity sensor might identify moisture when the user is taking a shower.(温度数值可能会受到空调影响，用户洗澡时湿度传感器也会检测到水汽。)”可知，收集的数据容易受到外界环境干扰，进而产生误差。 31．推理判断题。根据原文第五段“The researchers analyzed two major wildfire events: fires in Israel in November 2016 and the massive fire in Portugal in July 2013. The results were surprising, with smartphone data showing significant abnormal signs before and during these major fires.(研究人员分析了两起重大野火事件：2016年11月以色列的火灾，以及2013年7月葡萄牙的特大火灾。研究结果令人意外，手机数据在两场重大火灾发生前夕以及火灾期间都显现出明显异常迹象。)”可知，列举葡萄牙大火案例是为了佐证手机数据具备实际效用。 （本题10分）When natural disasters occur — wildfires, floods, earthquakes, tsunamis — every minute counts. Today, advanced technology is reshaping how we predict (预测), monitor, and respond to disasters, saving countless lives and reducing damage worldwide. From artificial intelligence (AI) to drones (无人机) and robotics, technology is helping build a stronger planet. Artificial intelligence processes millions of data points — weather patterns, soil wetness, earthquake activity, historical disaster records — to predict risks more correctly than ever before. Machine learning models predict wildfire paths, hurricane strength, and flood areas days in advance. In Japan, AI systems check early signs of earthquakes and give warnings seconds before shaking arrives, enough time for people to take cover. Google’s Crisis Response uses AI to map damaged areas and direct aid within hours of a disaster. Drones fly into dangerous areas — burning forests, flooded cities, broken buildings — to take clear images, locate survivors, and check damage without risking human lives. Robotic dogs and snake-like robots move through the remains to find trapped people. Underwater drones examine damaged ports and oil rigs after storms. Modern warning systems push real-time warnings to smartphones, radios, and TVs. In the U.S., the Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) system sends tsunami, hurricane, and wildfire warnings to every mobile phone in a danger area. In India, the National Disaster Management Authority uses SMS and app warnings to reach remote villages, cutting the warning delays (延误) from hours to minutes. Scientists agree technology cannot stop natural disasters — but it can significantly reduce their impact. “We used to react to disasters; now we predict and prepare,” says Dr. Elena, a climate scientist at the University of California. “Technology gives us the time to act.” As climate change increases disaster frequency, these tools will become even more important for protecting lives and livelihoods worldwide. 32．(2.5分)What can be inferred about AI in Paragraph 2? A．It makes predictions based on big data. B．It provides aid directly to damaged areas. C．It reduces the number of natural disasters. D．It prevents natural disasters from happening. 33．(2.5分)Why are the US and India mentioned in Paragraph 4? A．To stress the importance of mobile phones. B．To compare different disasters in the two countries. C．To introduce advanced technology developed there. D．To prove the effectiveness of modern warning systems. 34．(2.5分)According to Dr. Elena, how can technology protect lives and livelihoods? A．By buying people time to prepare. B．By reacting quickly after disasters. C．By replacing humans in rescue. D．By reducing the disaster frequency. 35．(2.5分)Which is the most suitable title for the text? A．Importance of Early Warning Systems B．Development of Disaster Prevention Measures C．Technology: A Safeguard against Natural Disasters D．Drones and Robotics: A Tool for Locating Survivors 【答案】32．A 33．D 34．A 35．C 【导语】文章主要讲述了科技在应对自然灾害方面发挥的重要作用。 【详解】32．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Artificial intelligence processes millions of data points — weather patterns, soil wetness, earthquake activity, historical disaster records — to predict risks more correctly than ever before.(人工智能处理数百万个数据点——天气模式、土壤湿度、地震活动、历史灾害记录——以比以往任何时候都更准确地预测风险。)”可知，人工智能是基于大数据进行预测的。 33．推理判断题。根据第四段“Modern warning systems push real-time warnings to smartphones, radios, and TVs. In the U. S., the Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) system sends tsunami, hurricane, and wildfire warnings to every mobile phone in a danger area. In India, the National Disaster Management Authority uses SMS and app warnings to reach remote villages, cutting the warning delays (延误) from hours to minutes.(现代预警系统向智能手机、收音机和电视推送实时预警。在美国，无线紧急警报（WEA）系统向危险地区的每一部手机发送海啸、飓风和野火警报。在印度，国家灾害管理局使用短信和应用程序警报来通知偏远村庄，将预警延误时间从数小时缩短到数分钟。)”可知，本段提到美国和印度是为了证明现代预警系统的有效性。 34．细节理解题。根据最后一段中““We used to react to disasters; now we predict and prepare,” says Dr. Elena, a climate scientist at the University of California. “Technology gives us the time to act.”(“我们过去常常对灾害做出反应；现在我们预测并做好准备，”加州大学的气候科学家埃琳娜博士说。“科技给了我们行动的时间。”)”可知，埃琳娜博士认为科技通过为人们争取准备时间来保护生命和生计。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“Today, advanced technology is reshaping how we predict (预测), monitor, and respond to disasters,saving countless lives and reducing damage worldwide. From artificial intelligence (AI) to drones (无人机) and robotics, technology is helping build a stronger planet.(如今，先进的技术正在重塑我们预测、监测和应对灾害的方式，拯救了无数生命，减少了全球范围内的损失。从人工智能到无人机和机器人技术，科技正在帮助建立一个更强大的星球。)”以及下文对各种科技在应对自然灾害方面的具体应用可知，本文主要讲述了科技在应对自然灾害方面发挥的重要作用，故C项“科技：抵御自然灾害的保障”最适合作本文标题。 （本题12.5分）We’re told to buy environmentally friendly cars and change the old electrical items in our home.

Most people would try to leave the building. I live on 58(1.5分) third floor of a flat with several more stories above me — nobody wants 59(1.5分) (trap) under that after an earthquake. I guess, if an earthquake came, I would probably just panic rather than think about what I need to do, such as hiding somewhere or 60(1.5分) (run) out of the building. I had never felt an earthquake until last week. There was a small earthquake 61(1.5分) could hardly even be called an earthquake. I was not really 62(1.5分) (frighten). To feel the earth move like that was just strange. Of course, it 63(1.5分) (last) only a few seconds. I have spoken to the local people since the event and 64(1.5分) (luck), there were no injuries or damage 65(1.5分) (do) by it. But if it had been a real earthquake, I think I would have felt quite differently. 【答案】 56．knows 57．to 58．the 59．to be trapped 60．running 61．that/which 62．frightened 63．lasted 64．luckily 65．done 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者居住在活火山附近的经历，描述了当地小地震频发的情况，以及自己第一次经历小地震的感受。 【详解】56．考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：这里的每个人都知道它们的感觉，而且它们对当地人来说并不稀奇。此处描述的是客观事实，用一般现在时。Everybody为不定代词，作主语时，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填knows。 57．考查介词。句意：这里的每个人都知道它们的感觉，而且它们对当地人来说并不稀奇。固定搭配come as no surprise to sb. 意为 “对某人来说不足为奇”。故填to。 58．考查冠词。句意：我住在一栋公寓的三楼，上面还有好几层 —— 没人想在地震后被困在那下面。序数词third前需加定冠词the，表示 “第三层”。故填the。 59．考查非谓语动词。句意：我住在一栋公寓的三楼，上面还有好几层 —— 没人想在地震后被困在那下面。固定搭配want to do sth. 意为“想要做某事”；主语nobody和动词trap之间是被动关系，应用不定式的被动形式to be trapped。故填to be trapped。 60．考查非谓语动词。句意：我想，如果地震来了，我可能只会惊慌失措，而不会去想我需要做什么，比如躲在某个地方或者跑出大楼。such as后接动名词作宾语，与前面的hiding somewhere并列。故填running。 61．考查定语从句。句意：一次小地震，甚至几乎算不上是地震。空格处引导定语从句，先行词是a small earthquake，指物，且从句中缺少主语，应用关系代词that或which。故填that/which。 62．考查形容词。句意：我并没有真的感到害怕。此处主语是I，描述人的感受，应用-ed形式的形容词frightened，意为“感到害怕的”。故填frightened。 63．考查动词时态。句意：当然，它只持续了几秒钟。根据上文“I had never felt an earthquake until last week.”提到的地震发生在上周，是过去的动作，应用一般过去时。故填lasted。 64．考查副词。句意：自从那次事件后，我和当地人聊过，幸运的是，没有人员受伤，也没有造成任何损坏。此处修饰整个句子，应用副词作状语；luck的副词形式是luckily，意为 “幸运的是”。故填luckily。 65．考查非谓语动词。句意：自从那次事件后，我和当地人聊过，幸运的是，没有人员受伤，也没有造成任何损坏。damage和动词do之间是被动关系，应用过去分词作后置定语，表被动。故填done。 五、书信写作 66．（本题15分）上周五你校组织学生去自然灾害体验馆参加了一次活动，学生们戴上VR眼镜，如临其境地体验了各种自然灾害。请你为校微信公众号写一篇英文新闻稿，内容包括： 1. 活动目的；2. 活动过程；3. 活动反响。 提示词：自然灾害体验馆（Natural Disaster Experience Hall） 注意：写作词数应为120左右；可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 To help students learn more about natural disasters, our school organized an activity in the Natural Disaster Experience Hall last Friday.

Mary swiftly threw herself into her Mum’s arms, burying her face into her chest and trembling with fright. “I think we should leave here right away!” She murmured in a crying tone. Instantly, Dad refused her request again for the fact that the city had already been flooded severely. As he saw through their window, the almost three-meter-high floodwater had already surrounded the apartment building like a wide river, several cars floating on it just like boats. “Black out!” Mary gasped fearfully, the wind roaring and the rain beating on the roof and windows, which made her even more nervous in the whole darkness. Mum took Mary’s hand and carefully led her to sit on the sofa, trying her best to comfort her. While she performed calmly, Mary could tell she was nervous too. “Let’s try to find a light source first and then see what other supplies we have.” Dad made an arrangement. Luckily, there was a flashlight, some packages of instant noodles, bread and some drinking water, which may help them get through the toughness for the half of the night. Without saying a single word, Dad turned on the flashlight, sat down and hugged his wife and daughter. The sudden silence in the house seemed to make the wind and rain more frightening outside. Only the light of the flashlight could now give them some warmth and a sense of little hope. “What about Mrs. Thomson? Old and weak, she must be extremely helpless.” Mum said with great concern when she thought about their nice neighbor who lived alone upstairs of the same building. After a brief discussion, Mum and Dad decided they should go and check whether Mrs. Thomson was fine. Mary, with heavy breath and pounding heart, stood up immediately, ready to bring all their supplies to Mrs. Thomson’s house.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。 In the darkness, they supported each other and went upstairs step by step with the light of the flashlight. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Suddenly, a bunch of searching light from a rescue boat flashed across Mrs. Thomson’s window. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】    In the darkness, they supported each other and went upstairs step by step with the light of the flashlight. The water had already seeped into the stairwell, making each step slippery and dangerous. Mary clung tightly to her parents’hands, her heart pounding with a mix of fear and determination. When they finally reached Mrs. Thomson’s door, Dad knocked gently but firmly. After what felt like an eternity, the door creaked open, revealing Mrs. Thomson’s frightened face. “Thank goodness you’re here!” she whispered, her voice trembling. They quickly helped her gather her essential belongings and led her back downstairs to their apartment, where they all huddled together, finding comfort in each other's presence.        Suddenly, a bunch of searching light from a rescue boat flashed across Mrs. Thomson’s window. “Look!” Mary exclaimed, pointing excitedly. Dad grabbed the flashlight and waved it back and forth, signaling for help. Within minutes, they heard the sound of voices and the gentle lapping of the boat against the building. The rescue team arrived just in time, helping them all into the boat and to safety. As they sailed away from the flooded apartment, Mary looked back, feeling grateful for the bravery and love that had kept them together through the storm. 【导语】本文以一场突如其来的洪水为背景展开。在洪水肆虐、城市被淹的危急时刻，Mary一家在停电的黑暗中，不仅关心自身的安危，还牵挂着独居楼上、年老体弱的邻居Mrs. Thomson。在决定去查看并帮助她的过程中，他们展现了在灾难面前的互助与关爱。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“在黑暗中，他们互相扶持，借着手电筒的光一步一步地上楼。”可知，第一段可以描写他们上楼找到Mrs. Thomson并带她一起下楼的过程。 ②由第二段句首内容“突然，一束来自救援船的探照灯扫过Mrs. Thomson的窗户。”可知，第二段可以描写他们获救的过程以及获救后的感受。 2.续写线索：上楼找Mrs. Thomson——带她一起下楼——探照灯扫过窗户——呼救——获救——感激 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①抓紧：cling tightly to/grasp firmly ②跳动：pound/beat ③显露；出现：reveal/appear ④颤抖：temble/shake 情绪类 ①害怕的：frightened/scared ②感激的：grateful/appreciative 【点睛】【高分句型1】The water had already seeped into the stairwell, making each step slippery and dangerous.（运用了现在分词作状语） 【高分句型2】As they sailed away from the flooded apartment, Mary looked back, feeling grateful for the bravery and love that had kept them together through the storm.（运用了As引导的时间状语从句、分词作状语以及that引导的定语从句） 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。There was a fire half an hour ago.

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 under water 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 every one 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. Thanks for coming to this art gallery opening.
