Jason and his father were going to the grocery store by car to pick up some apples. It had been an unusual day. The sky was dark but there were few clouds. As they drove up the street, there started to be a rumbling (隆隆的) sound heard across the ground.
Jason’s father immediately realized that a tornado (龙卷风) was coming. He stopped the car and told Jason to get out immediately. Jason and his father got out of the car and made their way to the closest building. By this time the wind was blowing harder, and it was hard to see or hear. Debris was falling all over the place. Jason couldn’t see his dad anymore. He also realized that he wasn’t getting to the building fast enough. He was afraid he would be picked up by the wind and thrown into the air.
As he made his way towards the building, he noticed a field to his right. He could see an irrigation ditch (灌溉渠). In a panic, he scrambled (爬) to the ditch and lay flat on the ground. More debris and objects flew overhead. His heart was beating hard, and he was nervous. He had never been in a tornado before.
After a while, the wind died down and the loud roaring sound was gone. Jason slowly lifted his head and nervously looked around. What he saw was a great mess. Jason could hardly recognize (认出) the buildings in front of him because of all the damage (破坏).
He stood up and with shaky (颤抖的) legs walked to the building. He pushed the door open and went inside. It was a public building owned by the city. It was empty, but Jason could hear noises further inside. He walked into the large room and saw his dad. He ran across the room and gave him a big hug.
“Jason! How are you I’ve been worried sick about you!” said his father. “I couldn’t find you anywhere!”
Jason breathed a sigh of relief (松了口气) and sat down. He did have a story to tell!

Nature’s Warnings
When the sky suddenly turns dark and the wind is strong, watch out! A dangerous storm might be coming. Storms are frightening. Watch for flashes of lightning. Listen for thunder. If nature sends these warnings, don’t wait for rain. Act right away to keep safe.
Safety Steps
At the first flash of lightning, quickly get inside a building or a car. Do not go into a shed (棚屋) for protection. It is not closed like a building, so it is not safe.
Even after you are indoors, be careful. It is not smart to go near doors or windows. They can blow in or break. A room with no windows is the safest place to stay. Do not wash your hands during a storm. Do not use anything that runs on electricity, either. Water and electrical lines are like roads for lightning. Even if you really want to play computer games, don’t! It is better to be bored than to get hurt. Try reading a book instead. Reading is more fun than playing computer games during a storm.
If you can’t get to somewhere safe, stay out in the open. You may feel safe under a tree, but that is not a good place to stay. Lightning is pulling toward tall poles and trees. Stay down in an open space and cover your ears to protect them. Loud thunder can damage your hearing.
Lightning Strikes
Lightning does not strike people very often. You might often see that happen. If you do, call 120. Only trained emergency workers should care for a person who has been hit by lightning.
If you follow these rules, you will stay safe during a storm.
( )33. From Paragraph 1, we learn that _______.
A. storms are frightening and dangerous
B. storms often come without warnings
C. people should wait and watch lightning
D. people should take action after the storm
( )34. What are safe places for us to stay
a. A room with many windows when we’re indoors.
b. Under a big tree when we’re in the open.
c. The school playground. d. A room with no windows.
A. ab. B. bc. C. bd. D. cd.
( )35. Which of the statements is TRUE according to the passage
A. It’s safe to stay indoors to play computer games during a storm.
B. Reading books is more dangerous than using electrical things in a storm.
C. We should not wash our hands when a storm comes.
D. If a person is hit by lightning, you should move him or her to a safe place right away.
( )36. Where can we read this passage
A. In a story magazine. B. In a travelling magazine.
C. In a science magazine. D. In a sports magazine.
D
A tsunami is a huge ocean wave (浪). An earthquake usually causes a tsunami. The biggest tsunami ever hit land on July 9, 1958. It happened when an earthquake shook the undersea floor. The 8.0 earthquake shook 40 million cubic yards (立方码) of rocks and ice from a mountain. The landslide (滑坡) fell 3,000 feet and hit the water with terrible force. It caused the huge wave. The wave was more than 1,640 feet (500 meters) high and hit over five square miles of land. It also destroyed millions of trees.
There were no towns in the area, so it is different from the terrible tsunami in 2004. More than 200, 000 people lost their lives in 2004. ▲ . These two unlucky people were on a fishing boat in the bay when the wave arrived. Another boat was carrying Peter and his wife. They jumped into a small boat and some people saved them a few hours later. Jack and his seven-year-old son were on the third boat. Luckily, both of them didn’t die.
For many years, scientists discussed about the reasons of the tsunami in 1958. Some scientists said lots of rocks fell into the bay, but it was not enough to cause such a huge wave. They thought that the earthquake itself caused the wave. However, as our understanding of earthquakes and tsunamis improved, most scientists now regard the landslide as the true reason for the wave. But no one argues that the wave is the largest in the world and will keep a long time in the future.
( )37. Why does the writer list large numbers in Paragraph 1
A. To tell us some stories of the tsunami.
B. To show strong power of the tsunami.
C. To give us examples of the tsunami.
D. To introduce some news of the tsunami.
( )38. Which sentence could be put in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 2
A. But nobody died in the tsunami happened in 1958.
B. However, the 1958 tsunami killed two people.
C. So many people died from the tsunami in 1958.
D. The 1958 tsunami killed 200, 000 people, too.
( )39. Most scientists think the true reason for the wave is ________.
A. lots of rocks B. the earthquake
C. the landslide D. the tsunami
( )40. Which might be the best title of the passage
A. The Terrible Tsunami in 2004.
B. The Bad Results of the Tsunami.
C. The True Reason of the Tsunami.
D. The World’s Biggest Wave.

Traffic rules help to keep order on the road. They also help to keep people safe. Traffic accidents killed more than 104, 000 people in China last year. As we all know there are more cars than before. So drivers and pedestrians (行人) must work together to make the roads much safer.
The pedestrian has as many rules to follow as the drivers. You should walk on the sidewalk (人行道) on the road. Always look carefully before you walk across the street.
If you often ride a bike, don’t ride in the middle of the road or run through red traffic lights. When you ride a bike with a friend, don’t look around or talk.
Drivers should slow down at the traffic lights. And the driver and passengers must always wear seat belts (安全带). Without seat belts, they may be badly hurt in a sudden accident.
You must be careful if you have to travel on a bus. Get on or get off a bus only after it stops. When it is full, don’t try to get inside, or you may fall off.
Traffic rules are road safety rules. Please remember the famous saying “Thinking about others”.
