三、阅读理解（每小题2分，共20分） A

Maybe you know floods, earthquakes, sandstorms and so on. But have you heard of typhoons?（台风） Typhoons are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.

How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates （蒸发）into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into sky. Then cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles（圆圈）and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 metres a second, a typhoon begins.

A typhoon has two parts, one is called the “eye”. In the eye, the wind does not move so fast. The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. Here are the strongest winds and hardest rains.

Typhoons are very dangerous. In November this year, Typhoon Haiyan killed 5500 people in Philippines. More people are missing.

   

What to do when a typhoon hits?

Stay inside. Close all the windows and stay away from them.

Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes! Listen to the radio or TV for important information. If you’re told to go to a safer place, do it right now.

B. a travel record D. a science magazine C. only in China

D. under the sea

( )1. This passage is most probably from .

A. an advertisement of a typhoon C. a weather report A. in the hot season

( )2. Typhoons often happen .

B. in the cold season

( )3. In which order（顺序）does a typhoon happen?

a. The wind moves fast enough, a typhoon starts. b. The air moves quickly, making wind. c. The sun makes sea water hot. d. The air gets warmer. A. d-c-b-a

B. c-d-b-a

C. c-d-a-b

d-b-a-c

( )4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

B. 5500 people died because of Typhoon Haiyan around the world. C. The strongest winds and hardest rains are in the wall of clouds.

四、阅读与回答问题 （每小题2分，共10分）

What is a hurricane?（飓风）

You may already know that hurricanes are storms that can cause devastating(毁灭性的)waves，wind，and rain．They happen during“Hurricane Season，”which is from June 1st until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.

Categories(类别)of Hurricanes

There are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害)a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed，the more dangerous the storm is．For example，a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour，which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shorelines completely．

Hurricane Dangers

When a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall，there can be a devastating flood．The centre of a hurricane is called the eye．While most of a hurricane has dangerously strong winds，the eye is actually(事实上)a calm area in the storm．When the eye of a hurricane passes over land，people might think that it’s over，but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through．

Hurricane Safety Tips

There is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction，so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane，be sure to remember the following safety tips．

·Be sure you have a radio，batteries，fresh drinking water，and enough food．

·Tell neighbours，friends，and family members your emergency plans．Tell them where you’ll go if you need to leave your home．

·If you live near the ocean，leave your home and travel to a safe place．

·Stay inside during the storm．You could be seriously injured(受伤)if you go outside． 1.When is Hurricane Season?

Last Monday morning, after two days’ heavy rain, a landslide happened. I was at home with my mother. Father came back in the afternoon. It was raining heavily/hard. He asked us to leave quickly with umbrellas. Just then, the house started to shake. We were very afraid and ran away quickly. The following morning, we went back home. We found that there was no house at all. There were only pieces of glass and bricks everywhere. We felt very sad.
