Ⅰ.閱讀理解
A
　　For the past few years， I’ve taken my vacation in the spring.One April I planned to visit a friend in Nepal who had lived in the country for over 15 years.
　　I flew into Kathmandu and spent a week visiting sites， and on Friday， 24 April 2015， we went to Lukla， a mountain town to the northeast.My friend had worked there before.We visited a nearby village on Saturday.We were served a delicious pancake and endless cups of milk tea； villagers made small talk and caught up with each other.After a couple of hours， my friend and I made a polite exit （離去） for a coffee break across the dirt path to our lodging， a house he had lived in while working in Lukla years ago.
　　As we sat in the kitchen taking a rest， I wondered why it felt like an underground was running under the village.As the sound started to shake， I looked out the window at the passers-by and thought it felt like a truck was driving by — impossible in this village.I looked at my friend and he said offhandedly： “It’s an earthquake.” Before I could ask questions， he began shouting to get out of the house.By the time I was running down the dirt path， I couldn’t run straight.
　　Away from buildings， we lowered our bodies near a low wall， and unbelievably before our eyes， walls and buildings fell.In front of us the end wall of the house we slept in collapsed， the stones dislodging （移開） and falling to the ground.In a matter of seconds， every house in the village was damaged， with walls either seriously cracked （破裂）， or partially or completely damaged.
　　In the days and weeks that followed we checked in with friends and shared stories of where we were and what we were doing.The event was so wide-reaching that it was difficult to understand except through personal stories.

　　The year 1988 will not be forgotten for a long time at Yellowstone National Park.Fires broke out in June and burned until September.The fires were not put out completely until November.They covered almost half of the huge park.What caused such huge fires？ There are several answers to this question.
　　Lodgepole pines （美國黑松） make up 80 per cent of the park’s forests.These trees grow quickly， but they only live about 200 years.Then many of the pines die and are blown down by high winds.The trees lie on the forest floor for many years.In wet forests they would rot （腐爛） and turn back into soil， but it is too dry for this to happen in Yellowstone.In 1988， dead wood covered the forest floor.
　　Yellowstone usually gets a lot of snow in the winter.When the snow melts， it provides water for the plants.For six winters in the 1980s， little snow had fallen.Rain usually falls during the summer months， but 1988 was the driest summer in 116 years.
　　Several fires started in and near the park in June.Park officials fought the fires caused by human carelessness.They didn’t try to put out the fires started by lightning.They knew that fires help clean out the dead wood.When little rain fell in June and July， the fires became larger and larger.More than 17，000 acres had burned by 21 July.Park officials decided that it was time to fight all of the big fires.
　　On 23 July， strong winds blew the fires into new areas of the park.Firefighters battled the flames， but they had little success.On 20 August， 80-mile-per-hour winds swept through the park.This day became known as Black Saturday.Fires that had almost died out came back to life.No matter how hard the firefighters tried， they couldn’t control the flames.Snow and rain began to fall in September.Then the worst of the fires were put out.The remaining fires were put out by heavy snows in November.
5.How long did the fires at Yellowstone National Park last？（　　）
A.About 3 months.
B.About 4 months.
C.About 5 months.
D.About 7 months.
6.What reason for fires is mentioned in the third paragraph？（　　）
A.Dead wood.
B.Dry weather.
C.Great winds.
D.Human carelessness.
7.Why didn’t park officials try to put out the fires started by lightning？（　　）
A.They didn’t know about the fires.
B.They had no way to control them.
C.They knew fires could do no harm.
D.They knew fires would go out of itself.
8.Park officials decided to put out fires 　　　　.（　　）

C.20 days after they broke out D.one month after they broke out

　　As New Zealand begins the long， costly task of clearing up after Cyclone （颶風） Gabrielle cut a disastrous path across much of the North Island on 12 and 13 February， finger pointing has started.
　　The clean-up and rebuilding may take years， and even longer in remote parts， with costs running into the billions of dollars.
　　What made the cyclone worse for New Zealand was that it followed nearly a week of heavy rain in late January that caused the worst flooding in the nation’s history.
　　Green Party leader James Shaw delivered a speech on 14 February， saying， “I struggle to find words to express what I am thinking and feeling about this particular crisis.I don’t think I’ve ever felt as sad or as angry about the lost decades that we spent arguing about whether climate change was real or not， whether it was caused by humans or not， whether it was bad or not， whether we should do something about it or not， because it is clearly here now， and if we do not act， it will get worse.”
　　Shaw’s speech highlighted the growing concern in New Zealand and across the world on the increasing effect of climate change on global weather patterns.
　　A lecturer in the University of Auckland said it was high time the country moved away from passive responses to natural disasters and adopted an active approach.
　　“In the next decades down to the end of this century， we expect that ocean temperatures will steadily climb and extreme events will become more common， serious， and long-lasting，” a marine expert said.“The actual trajectory （軌跡）， however， depends on how society will deal with the climate change challenge.”
9.What does the underlined phrase “finger pointing” in the first paragraph probably mean？（　　）
A.Blame.　 B.Praise.
C.Approval.　 D.Celebration.
10.What made the cyclone worse for New Zealand？（　　）
A.It will take a long time and cost a lot of money to clean up and rebuild.
B.Heavy rain had lasted for nearly a week before the cyclone hit New Zealand.
C.Some people made a lot of complaints about the cyclone.
D.The cyclone caused the worst flooding in the history of New Zealand.
11.What can we infer from what Shaw said in Paragraph 4？（　　）
A.It was easy for Shaw to express himself about the cyclone.
B.Shaw felt very sad and angry about the cyclone.
C.It is necessary to argue about climate change.
D.Humans should take action to deal with climate change right away.
12.What would be the best title for the passage？（　　）
A.Clean-up and Rebuilding After Cyclone
B.Attaching Importance to Climate Change
C.Cyclone Seen as Wake-up Call on Climate Change
D.Increasing Ocean Temperatures Responsible for Extreme Events
Ⅱ.閱讀七選五
　　A tsunami is an extremely large wave in the sea caused by an earthquake at the sea bed.The following safety tips may help you deal with it.
　　Before the tsunami
　　Know the warning signs of a tsunami： rapidly rising or falling coastal waters， a loud noise from the ocean， or rumblings of an earthquake.“If people along the Indian Ocean coastline on 26 December 2004， were aware of these natural warnings， fewer people would have died.” says an expert.13.（　　） And you’d better map your evacuation （疏散） route.
　　During the tsunami
　　·If you’re in a tsunami area and there is an earthquake， first drop to the floor， cover your head and neck， and hold on to something stable.14.（　　）
　　·15.（　　） “Listen to the authorities， but do not wait for tsunami warnings and evacuation orders，” suggests the US site Ready.gov.
　　·People often mistake the distance they have to go to be safe.“Many people think they’ve got to go miles，” Richards says.“16.（　　）” If you’re a visitor staying in a tall concrete hotel， he adds， going above the fourth floor likely will be safer than evacuating.
　　·Stay put in a safe area until an official all-clear is given.The first wave may not be the last or the strongest and the danger can last for hours or even days.
　　After the tsunami
　　First， stay clear of damaged or flooded areas and downed power lines.Meanwhile， listen for further alerts and instructions about evacuation zones and shelters.17.（　　） Phone systems are likely to be down or busy at that time.
A.But it might be just right behind Johnny’s house.
B.But they can also come back as soon as possible.
C.If you’re in a low-lying area， move inland as soon as possible.
D.Take the warnings seriously， and strictly follow the requirements.
E.Listen for official warnings， but also listen and watch for natural signs.
F.Besides， you should be familiar with your government’s warning system.
G.You’d better use texts and social media to communicate with loved ones.

Ⅰ.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述了作者在尼泊爾時遭遇地震的經歷。
1.A　細節理解題。根據第一段第二句和第二段第一句可知，作者在尼泊爾拜訪了他的朋友，兩人一起在尼泊爾游玩。
2.C　推理判斷題。根據第二段中的We visited a nearby village ...caught up with each other.可推知，那個村子里的人都很友善、熱情。
3.D　詞義猜測題。根據第三段第二句以及倒數第二句可知，朋友立即意識到是地震來了。畫線詞所在句意為：我看著我的朋友，他立即說：“這是地震。”故可猜測畫線單詞offhandedly意為“立即地”。
4.C　推理判斷題。根據第四段內容可推知，村莊在地震中嚴重受損。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章簡要介紹了發生在1988年的美國黃石公園森林大火。
5.C　細節理解題。根據第一段內容可知，這場火災發生在1988年6月，直到11月才被徹底撲滅，持續了5個月的時間。
6.B　推理判斷題。根據第三段內容可知，本段主要強調了1988年氣候干旱這一導致火災的原因。
7.C　細節理解題。根據第四段內容可知，森林里的官員們認為大火可以幫助燒掉那些已經死掉的樹木，也就是說，他們沒想到大火會帶來災難。
8.D　細節理解題。根據第四段內容可知，森林里的官員們在7月21日（也就是大火發生的一個月后）才決定滅火。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了颶風 Gabrielle 給新西蘭帶來的災害及此災害給人們的警醒。
9.A　詞義猜測題。短語的字面意思“將手指指向某人”含有“指責”之意；第四段中 James Shaw 的觀點（if we do not act， it will get worse）和第六段中奧克蘭的一位講師的觀點（it was high time the country moved away from passive responses to natural disasters and adopted an active approach）都表現出兩人對現狀的不滿。故猜測finger pointing意為“指責”。
10.B　細節理解題。根據第三段可知，颶風來臨前的一場接近一周的強降雨造成了新西蘭歷史上最嚴重的洪水，這讓此次颶風造成的后果更嚴重了。
11.D　推理判斷題。根據第四段中if we do not act， it will get worse可知， 人們是時候采取行動來應對氣候變化了。
12.C　標題歸納題。通讀全文可知，文章講述颶風 Gabrielle 給新西蘭帶來的災害以及颶風發生后，三個不同的人發表了同一主題的感慨——人們應該積極行動起來主動應對氣候變化。所以C選項（颶風被視為氣候變化的警鐘）符合文章主旨，適合作標題。
Ⅱ.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了應對海嘯的一些安全建議。
13.F　上文舉例講述了自然警告有助于降低傷害，下文講述了畫撤離路線的作用，所以空處應講述在海嘯來臨之前能夠采取的其他措施。F項（此外，你應該熟悉政府的預警系統）承上啟下，符合語境。
14.C　上文講述了在發生地震的海嘯地區應該采取的做法。C項（如果你在低洼地區，盡快向內陸移動）符合語境，講述在其他地方應該怎么做。
15.E　根據下文可知，聽取官方警告但不要等待海嘯警報和撤離命令。E項（傾聽官方警告，但也要傾聽和注意自然跡象）符合語境。
16.A　上文講述了人們經常誤以為自己要走很遠才能到安全地帶。A項（但它可能就在Johnny的房子后面）符合語境，與上文構成轉折關系。
17.G　下文講述了海嘯之后電話系統可能有故障或者線路繁忙，所以空處應和通訊有關。G項（你最好使用短信和社交媒體與所愛的人交流）符合語境。

Hot！ Hot！ Hot！
　　[1]Picking up① a free newspaper at the Tube② station， I see the title “Hot！Hot！Hot！”.Today， the temperature in London is expected to③ reach 30 plus④ degrees！The average high temperature in July is only 22 degrees， so over 30 is not usual for London.It’s going to be awful on the Central Line， with no air conditioning.Why did they have to invent the Tube before air conditioning？ It’s just typical⑤ that my journey is on one of the oldest lines， as well as⑥ one of the deepest.It’s the hottest on the whole Tube system.
　　[1]動詞-ing短語作時間狀語。
　　Sure enough， [2] going down the stairs and onto the platform is like jumping into a volcano [3]that’s erupting⑦.This， however， is nothing compared to⑧ the train.Because there’s no air conditioning， the temperature inside the train can reach 35 degrees！It’s lovely at the beach， but not so when you’re wearing a suit and in a crowd of passengers！I’m sure the passenger next to⑨ me and I are melting and becoming one！I had bacon and eggs for breakfast， and now I’m feeling a bit sick⑩ — I hope I can make it to Bank station ...I’ll avoid the feeling by thinking about work.I work in a tall， glass building.One very hot summer， the sun reflected off it and melted cars [4] parked below！ Will this happen again today？
　　[2]動詞-ing短語作主語。
　　[3]that’s erupting是定語從句，修飾先行詞volcano。
　　[4]過去分詞短語作后置定語，修飾cars。
　　Yes， each summer in London definitely seems hotter than the last.I suddenly feel a bit scared .Perhaps now is the time to start planning for the future？ I should probably put my flat on the market and buy a boat.That way， when the Thames rises and there is a flood in London， I’ll still be able to get to work.But wait！Would I still have a workplace to go to？My office is only on the third floor of the building， so quite low.I’ll speak with my manager about moving to the top floor.Most importantly ， I will need to learn to swim！I’ll join a beginner’s swimming class immediately .Then I’ll be able to survive even when the tall buildings are flooded.
　　[5]Looking through my newspaper， I’m shocked by photos [6]showing that a typhoon in Asia has destroyed a town.What’s more ， heavy rain in Eastern Europe has caused landslides ， and the heat across Southern Europe has caused forest fires.Experts say this bad weather has occurred due to climate change.News like this [7]makes me feel nervous.[8]Now that it’s hard to avoid a disaster on Earth， perhaps I should start thinking about moving to space ...
　　[5]動詞-ing短語作時間狀語。
　　[6]動詞-ing形式作后置定語，that引導賓語從句。
　　[7]此處為“make＋賓語＋賓語補足語”結構。make為使役動詞，賓語為me，賓語補足語為省略to的動詞不定式feel nervous。
　　[8]Now that 引導原因狀語從句；it作形式主語，真正的主語為動詞不定式短語to avoid a disaster on Earth。
　　[9]“The next station is Bank！” comes the announcement .That’s my destination .Stepping out of the station with a heavy heart， I suddenly feel a fresh wind on my face.Well， maybe I have been worrying too much.After all ， it’s only 30 degrees outside！
　　[9]本句為完全倒裝句。正常語序為The announcement comes “The next station is Bank！”。

【參考譯文】
熱！熱！熱！
　　在地鐵站拿起一份免費報紙，我看到一個標題寫著“熱！熱！熱！”。今天，倫敦的溫度預計將達到30多度！7月的平均最高溫度只有22度，所以超過30度對于倫敦來說太不尋常了。地鐵中央線沒有空調系統，情況會很糟糕。為什么地鐵要在空調系統之前發明出來？我通常上班所走的路線剛好是地鐵里最老、最深的一條線。那也是整個地鐵系統里最熱的一條線。
　　果不其然，走下樓梯，來到站臺上就像是跳進一座正在噴發的火山。不過這還遠遠比不上車廂里面。因為沒有空調，車廂內的溫度能達到35度！這樣的溫度在海灘上會很舒服，但是當你穿著西裝擠在一群乘客中，可就沒那么舒服了。我敢肯定鄰座的乘客和我都正在熔化，我們要融為一體了！我早餐吃了培根和雞蛋，現在感覺有點惡心——希望我能撐到銀行站……我還是想想工作的事來逃避這種感覺吧。我在一座高高的玻璃建筑里上班。有一年夏天非常熱，大樓表面反射的陽光竟然熔化了停在樓下的車！今天這種事會重演嗎？
　　沒錯，好像倫敦的夏天一年比一年熱。我突然覺得有點兒害怕。也許是時候該為將來打算了？我或許應該把房子在市場上賣掉，然后買一艘船。這樣等泰晤士河的水漲起來，倫敦被洪水淹沒的時候，我依然能去上班。不過等等！到那時候我還有地方工作嗎？我的辦公室就在四樓，太低了。我得去跟經理請求搬到頂樓去。最重要的是，我得學會游泳！我得馬上報個游泳入門班。這樣就算高樓大廈都被洪水淹沒了，我也能活下來。
　　我翻閱著手里的報紙，震驚地看到亞洲的臺風摧毀了一個城鎮的照片。還有，東歐的暴雨造成了山體滑坡，席卷南歐的熱浪引發了森林火災。專家說這些惡劣天氣是由氣候變化導致的。這樣的新聞讓我感到緊張。既然在地球上難逃一劫，或許我應該開始考慮移民太空了……
　　“下一站，銀行站！”報站聲響起。我要到站了。我心情沉重地走出地鐵站，突然感覺到一陣清風撲面而來。罷了罷了，也許是我擔心得太多了。畢竟，外面只有30度！

Hot！ Hot！ Hot！
　　[1]Picking up① a free newspaper at the Tube② station， I see the title
“Hot！Hot！Hot！”.Today， the temperature in London is expected to
③ reach 30 plus④ degrees！The average high temperature in July is only
22 degrees， so over 30 is not usual for London.It’s going to be awful
on the Central Line， with no air conditioning.Why did they have to
invent the Tube before air conditioning？ It’s just typical⑤ that my
journey is on one of the oldest lines， as well as⑥ one of the deepest.It’s
the hottest on the whole Tube system.
　　[1]動詞-ing短語作時間狀語。
【讀文清障】

nothing compared to⑧ the train.Because there’s no air conditioning，
the temperature inside the train can reach 35 degrees！It’s lovely at the
beach， but not so when you’re wearing a suit and in a crowd of
passengers！I’m sure the passenger next to⑨ me and I are melting and
becoming one！I had bacon and eggs for breakfast， and now I’m
feeling a bit sick⑩ — I hope I can make it to Bank station ...I’ll avoid
the feeling by thinking about work.I work in a tall， glass building.
One very hot summer， the sun reflected off it and melted cars [4]

for the future？ I should probably put my flat on the market and buy a
boat.That way， when the Thames rises and there is a flood in
London， I’ll still be able to get to work.But wait！Would I still have
a workplace to go to？My office is only on the third floor of the
building， so quite low.I’ll speak with my manager about moving to the
top floor.Most importantly ， I will need to learn to swim！I’ll join a

even when the tall buildings are flooded.
　　[5]Looking through my newspaper， I’m shocked by photos

perhaps I should start thinking about moving to space ...

【參考譯文】
熱！熱！熱！
　　在地鐵站拿起一份免費報紙，我看到一個標題寫著“熱！熱！
熱！”。今天，倫敦的溫度預計將達到30多度！7月的平均最高溫度
只有22度，所以超過30度對于倫敦來說太不尋常了。地鐵中央線沒有
空調系統，情況會很糟糕。為什么地鐵要在空調系統之前發明出來？
我通常上班所走的路線剛好是地鐵里最老、最深的一條線。那也是整
個地鐵系統里最熱的一條線。
　　果不其然，走下樓梯，來到站臺上就像是跳進一座正在噴發的火
山。不過這還遠遠比不上車廂里面。因為沒有空調，車廂內的溫度能
達到35度！這樣的溫度在海灘上會很舒服，但是當你穿著西裝擠在一
群乘客中，可就沒那么舒服了。我敢肯定鄰座的乘客和我都正在熔
化，我們要融為一體了！我早餐吃了培根和雞蛋，現在感覺有點惡
心——希望我能撐到銀行站……我還是想想工作的事來逃避這種感覺
吧。我在一座高高的玻璃建筑里上班。有一年夏天非常熱，大樓表面
反射的陽光竟然熔化了停在樓下的車！今天這種事會重演嗎？
　　沒錯，好像倫敦的夏天一年比一年熱。我突然覺得有點兒害怕。
也許是時候該為將來打算了？我或許應該把房子在市場上賣掉，然后
買一艘船。這樣等泰晤士河的水漲起來，倫敦被洪水淹沒的時候，我
依然能去上班。不過等等！到那時候我還有地方工作嗎？我的辦公室
就在四樓，太低了。我得去跟經理請求搬到頂樓去。最重要的是，我
得學會游泳！我得馬上報個游泳入門班。這樣就算高樓大廈都被洪水
淹沒了，我也能活下來。
　　我翻閱著手里的報紙，震驚地看到亞洲的臺風摧毀了一個城鎮的
照片。還有，東歐的暴雨造成了山體滑坡，席卷南歐的熱浪引發了森
林火災。專家說這些惡劣天氣是由氣候變化導致的。這樣的新聞讓我
感到緊張。既然在地球上難逃一劫，或許我應該開始考慮移民太空
了……
　　“下一站，銀行站！”報站聲響起。我要到站了。我心情沉重地
走出地鐵站，突然感覺到一陣清風撲面而來。罷了罷了，也許是我擔
心得太多了。畢竟，外面只有30度！

　　For the past few years， I’ve taken my vacation in the spring.One
April I planned to visit a friend in Nepal who had lived in the country for
over 15 years.
　　I flew into Kathmandu and spent a week visiting sites， and on
Friday， 24 April 2015， we went to Lukla， a mountain town to the
northeast.My friend had worked there before.We visited a nearby village
on Saturday.We were served a delicious pancake and endless cups of milk
tea； villagers made small talk and caught up with each other.After a
couple of hours， my friend and I made a polite exit （離去） for a coffee
break across the dirt path to our lodging， a house he had lived in while
working in Lukla years ago.
　　As we sat in the kitchen taking a rest， I wondered why it felt like an
underground was running under the village.As the sound started to
shake， I looked out the window at the passers-by and thought it felt like a
truck was driving by — impossible in this village.I looked at my friend
and he said offhandedly： “It’s an earthquake.” Before I could ask
questions， he began shouting to get out of the house.By the time I was
running down the dirt path， I couldn’t run straight.
　　Away from buildings， we lowered our bodies near a low wall， and
unbelievably before our eyes， walls and buildings fell.In front of us the
end wall of the house we slept in collapsed， the stones dislodging （移
開） and falling to the ground.In a matter of seconds， every house in the
village was damaged， with walls either seriously cracked （破裂）， or
partially or completely damaged.
　　In the days and weeks that followed we checked in with friends and
shared stories of where we were and what we were doing.The event was
so wide-reaching that it was difficult to understand except through personal
stories.

　　The year 1988 will not be forgotten for a long time at Yellowstone
National Park.Fires broke out in June and burned until September.The
fires were not put out completely until November.They covered almost
half of the huge park.What caused such huge fires？ There are several
answers to this question.
　　Lodgepole pines （美國黑松） make up 80 per cent of the park’s
forests.These trees grow quickly， but they only live about 200
years.Then many of the pines die and are blown down by high winds.The
trees lie on the forest floor for many years.In wet forests they would rot
（腐爛） and turn back into soil， but it is too dry for this to happen in
Yellowstone.In 1988， dead wood covered the forest floor.
　　Yellowstone usually gets a lot of snow in the winter.When the snow
melts， it provides water for the plants.For six winters in the 1980s，
little snow had fallen.Rain usually falls during the summer months， but
1988 was the driest summer in 116 years.
　　Several fires started in and near the park in June.Park officials fought
the fires caused by human carelessness.They didn’t try to put out the
fires started by lightning.They knew that fires help clean out the dead
wood.When little rain fell in June and July， the fires became larger and
larger.More than 17，000 acres had burned by 21 July.Park officials
decided that it was time to fight all of the big fires.
　　On 23 July， strong winds blew the fires into new areas of the
park.Firefighters battled the flames， but they had little success.On 20
August， 80-mile-per-hour winds swept through the park.This day
became known as Black Saturday.Fires that had almost died out came
back to life.No matter how hard the firefighters tried， they couldn’t
control the flames.Snow and rain began to fall in September.Then the
worst of the fires were put out.The remaining fires were put out by heavy
snows in November.

　　As New Zealand begins the long， costly task of clearing up after
Cyclone （颶風） Gabrielle cut a disastrous path across much of the
North Island on 12 and 13 February， finger pointing has started.
　　The clean-up and rebuilding may take years， and even longer in
remote parts， with costs running into the billions of dollars.
　　What made the cyclone worse for New Zealand was that it followed
nearly a week of heavy rain in late January that caused the worst flooding
in the nation’s history.
　　Green Party leader James Shaw delivered a speech on 14 February，
saying， “I struggle to find words to express what I am thinking and
feeling about this particular crisis.I don’t think I’ve ever felt as sad or
as angry about the lost decades that we spent arguing about whether
climate change was real or not， whether it was caused by humans or
not， whether it was bad or not， whether we should do something about
it or not， because it is clearly here now， and if we do not act， it will
get worse.”
　　Shaw’s speech highlighted the growing concern in New Zealand and
across the world on the increasing effect of climate change on global
weather patterns.
　　A lecturer in the University of Auckland said it was high time the
country moved away from passive responses to natural disasters and
adopted an active approach.
　　“In the next decades down to the end of this century， we expect
that ocean temperatures will steadily climb and extreme events will
become more common， serious， and long-lasting，” a marine expert
said.“The actual trajectory （軌跡）， however， depends on how
society will deal with the climate change challenge.”

帶來的災害及此災害給人們的警醒。
9. What does the underlined phrase “finger pointing” in the first
paragraph probably mean？（　　）
A. Blame. B. Praise.
C. Approval. D. Celebration.
解析： 　詞義猜測題。短語的字面意思“將手指指向某人”含有
“指責”之意；第四段中 James Shaw 的觀點（if we do not act， it
will get worse）和第六段中奧克蘭的一位講師的觀點（it was high
time the country moved away from passive responses to natural
disasters and adopted an active approach）都表現出兩人對現狀的不
滿。故猜測finger pointing意為“指責”。
10. What made the cyclone worse for New Zealand？（　　）
A. It will take a long time and cost a lot of money to clean up and rebuild.
B. Heavy rain had lasted for nearly a week before the cyclone hit New
Zealand.
C. Some people made a lot of complaints about the cyclone.
D. The cyclone caused the worst flooding in the history of New Zealand.
解析： 　細節理解題。根據第三段可知，颶風來臨前的一場接
近一周的強降雨造成了新西蘭歷史上最嚴重的洪水，這讓此次颶
風造成的后果更嚴重了。
11. What can we infer from what Shaw said in Paragraph 4？（　　）
A. It was easy for Shaw to express himself about the cyclone.
B. Shaw felt very sad and angry about the cyclone.
C. It is necessary to argue about climate change.
D. Humans should take action to deal with climate change right away.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據第四段中if we do not act， it will get
worse可知， 人們是時候采取行動來應對氣候變化了。
12. What would be the best title for the passage？（　　）
A. Clean-up and Rebuilding After Cyclone
B. Attaching Importance to Climate Change
C. Cyclone Seen as Wake-up Call on Climate Change
D. Increasing Ocean Temperatures Responsible for Extreme Events
解析： 　標題歸納題。通讀全文可知，文章講述颶風
Gabrielle 給新西蘭帶來的災害以及颶風發生后，三個不同的
人發表了同一主題的感慨——人們應該積極行動起來主動應對
氣候變化。所以C選項（颶風被視為氣候變化的警鐘）符合文
章主旨，適合作標題。

　　A tsunami is an extremely large wave in the sea caused by an
earthquake at the sea bed.The following safety tips may help you deal with
it.
　　Before the tsunami
　　Know the warning signs of a tsunami： rapidly rising or falling
coastal waters， a loud noise from the ocean， or rumblings of an
earthquake.“If people along the Indian Ocean coastline on 26 December
2004， were aware of these natural warnings， fewer people would have
died.” says an expert.13.（　　） And you’d better map your
evacuation （疏散） route.
　　During the tsunami
　　·If you’re in a tsunami area and there is an earthquake， first drop to
the floor， cover your head and neck， and hold on to something
stable.14.（　　）
　　·15.（　　） “Listen to the authorities， but do not wait for
tsunami warnings and evacuation orders，” suggests the US site
Ready.gov.
　　·People often mistake the distance they have to go to be safe.“Many
people think they’ve got to go miles，” Richards says.“16.
（　　）” If you’re a visitor staying in a tall concrete hotel， he
adds， going above the fourth floor likely will be safer than evacuating.
　　·Stay put in a safe area until an official all-clear is given.The first
wave may not be the last or the strongest and the danger can last for hours
or even days.
　　After the tsunami
　　First， stay clear of damaged or flooded areas and downed power
lines.Meanwhile， listen for further alerts and instructions about
evacuation zones and shelters.17.（　　） Phone systems are likely to be
down or busy at that time.
A. But it might be just right behind Johnny’s house.
B. But they can also come back as soon as possible.
C. If you’re in a low-lying area， move inland as soon as possible.
D. Take the warnings seriously， and strictly follow the requirements.
E. Listen for official warnings， but also listen and watch for natural
signs.
F. Besides， you should be familiar with your government’s warning
system.
G. You’d better use texts and social media to communicate with loved
ones.

13. F　上文舉例講述了自然警告有助于降低傷害，下文講述了畫撤離
路線的作用，所以空處應講述在海嘯來臨之前能夠采取的其他措施。
F項（此外，你應該熟悉政府的預警系統）承上啟下，符合語境。
14. C　上文講述了在發生地震的海嘯地區應該采取的做法。C項（如
果你在低洼地區，盡快向內陸移動）符合語境，講述在其他地方應該
怎么做。
15. E　根據下文可知，聽取官方警告但不要等待海嘯警報和撤離命
令。E項（傾聽官方警告，但也要傾聽和注意自然跡象）符合語境。
16. A　上文講述了人們經常誤以為自己要走很遠才能到安全地
帶。A項（但它可能就在Johnny的房子后面）符合語境，與上文構
成轉折關系。
17. G　下文講述了海嘯之后電話系統可能有故障或者線路繁忙，所
以空處應和通訊有關。G項（你最好使用短信和社交媒體與所愛的人
交流）符合語境。
