Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
　　This morning my family and I went to a friend’s home to help her get things back in order.She was one of the unfortunate people whose home was recently destroyed by a tornado.One side of her home fell off and the roof was gone over a large part of the house.Torrential rain fell the rest of the night and all of the next day following the tornado， creating even more damage to her belongings.The home is a total loss.Still， there is much that is valuable， and our job today was to help her sort through the debris and find anything with actual value that she may want to take with her.
My husband helped to move furniture and other things to the storeroom while our two younger children helped clean up the yard.My oldest daughter and her boyfriend helped as well， and my another daughter with me swept up all of the areas of debris， sorting it for things that are important.We worked systematically， clearing the main living space first， then moving on to the kitchen， laundry area， then the master bedroom.
By the time we were done today， though there was no denying the home had met with disaster， we had gone far to restore order from the loss that had been there before.
My thought in entering the day was that our friend， who had been having trouble sleeping， was being affected by that loss negatively.I hoped that if we could restore order， she would finally start to feel some sense of peace and her mind would quiet and allow her the much-needed rest she so deserves.
She posted on Facebook just a little while ago that for the first time she was sleeping at night.For me， what a wonderful and deeply meaningful way to begin the New Year！

　　The worst outbreak of desert locusts （蝗虫） in Kenya in 70 years has seen hundreds of millions of the bugs swarm into the East African nation from Somalia and Ethiopia.Those two countries have not had an infestation （侵扰） like this in a quarter-century， destroying farmland and threatening the region with serious hunger.
“Even cows are wondering what is happening，” said Ndunda Makanga， who spent hours Friday trying to chase the locusts from his farm.“Corn， sorghum， cowpeas， they have eaten everything.”
“Even a small swarm of the insects can consume enough food for 35，000 people in a single day，” said Jens Laerke of the UN humanitarian office in Geneva.
About 70，000 hectares — 172，973 acres — of land in Kenya are attacked.A single swarm can contain up to 150 million locusts per square kilometer of farmland — an area the size of almost 250 football fields， authorities say.
“We must act immediately，” said David Phiri of the UN Food and Agricultural Organization.
About $70 million is needed to step up aerial pesticide （杀虫剂） spraying， the only effective way to fight them， the UN says.That won’t be easy， especially in Somalia.
Astonished by the finger-length insects， children dash here and there， waving blankets to shake the locusts free.Farmers are afraid to let their cattle out for grazing， and their crops are in danger， but there is little they can do.
One especially large swarm in northeastern Kenya measured 60 kilometers long by 40 kilometers wide （37 miles long by 25 miles wide）.
“The locals are really scared because they can consume everything，” said Francis Kitoo， deputy director of agriculture in southeastern Kenya’s Kitui county.“I’ve never seen such a big number.” He expressed his own concern about the locusts. “They will lay eggs and start another generation，” he said.
5.What did Ndunda Makanga want to express about the outbreak of locusts？
A.It’s very serious.
B.It’s very surprising.
C.It happens frequently.
D.It leads to heavy losses.
6.How does the author describe the outbreak of locusts？
A.By telling some stories.
B.By providing some facts.
C.By listing some numbers.
D.By giving some examples.
7.How did the farmers react to the big number of locusts？
A.They were very brave.
B.They let their cattle out.
C.They sprayed pesticide.
D.They were helpless indeed.
8.What’s Francis Kitoo’s attitude towards the future？
A.Worried. B.Confused.
C.Confident. D.Disappointed.

THE NIGHT THE EARTH DIDN’T SLEEP
Strange things were happening in the countryside① of northeastern Hebei.For several days， the water in the village wells rose and fell， rose and fell.There were deep cracks②[1] that appeared in the well walls.At least one well had some smelly gas③ [2]coming out of it.Chickens and even pigs were too nervous to④ eat， and dogs refused to go inside buildings. Mice ran out of⑤ the fields [3]looking for places to hide， and fish jumped out of the water. At about 3：00 a.m.， on 28 July 1976， bright lights were seen in the sky outside the city of Tangshan and loud noises were heard. But the city’s one million people were asleep as usual⑥ that night.
　　[1]此处是由关系代词that引导的定语从句，修饰先行词cracks，that在从句中作主语，不能省略。
[2]此处是动词-ing短语作后置定语，修饰gas。
[3]此处是动词-ing短语作伴随状语。
　　At 3：42 a.m.， everything began to shake.It seemed as if⑦ the world were coming to an end⑧ ！ Eleven kilometres directly below the city， one of the most deadly⑨ earthquakes of the 20th century had begun， a quake that even caused damage⑩ more than 150 kilometres away in Beijing.Nearly one third of the whole nation felt it！ A huge crack， eight kilometres long and 30 metres wide， cut across houses， roads， and waterways .Hard hills of rock became rivers of dirt.In less than one minute， a large city lay in ruins .Two thirds of the people [4]who lived there were dead or injured.Thousands of children were left without parents.The number of people [5]who were killed or badly injured in the quake was more than 400，000.
　　[4][5]两句都是由关系代词who引导的定语从句，修饰先行词people， who在从句中作主语。
[6]Everywhere survivors looked， there was nothing but ruins.Nearly everything in the city was destroyed.About 75 percent of the city’s factories and buildings， 90 percent of its homes， and all of its hospitals were gon.Bricks covered the ground like red autumn leaves， but no wind could blow them awa.Most bridges had fallen or were not safe to cross.The railway tracks were now useless pieces of metal .Tens of thousands of cows， hundreds of thousands of pigs， and millions of chickens were dead.Sand now filled the wells instead of water.People were in shock — and then， later that afternoon， another big quake shook Tangshan again.Even more buildings fell down.Water， food， and electricity were hard to get.People began to wonder [7]how long the disaster would last.
　　[6]此处是由从属连词everywhere引导的地点状语从句。
[7]此处是由how long引导的宾语从句。
　　But hope was not lost.Soon after the quakes， the army sent 150，000 soldiers to Tangshan to dig out those who were trappe and to bury the dea.More than 10，000 doctors and nurses came to provide medical car.Workers built shelters for survivors [8]whose homes had been destroyed.Hundreds of thousands of people were helped.Water and food were brought into the city by train， truck， and plane.Slowly， the city began to breathe again.
　　[8]此处是由关系代词whose引导的定语从句，修饰先行词survivors，whose在从句中作定语修饰homes。
Tangshan started to revive itself and get back up on its feet .With strong support from the government and the tireless efforts of the city’s people， a new Tangshan was built upon the earthquake ruins.The new city has become a home to more than seven million people， with great improvements in transportation， industry， and environment.Tangshan city has proved to China and the rest of the world that in times of disaster， people must unify and show the wisdom to stay positive and rebuild for a brighter future.

【参考译文】
地球的不眠之夜
河北省东北部的农村地区怪事连连。一连几天，村里的井水升升降降，起起伏伏。井壁上出现深深的裂缝，至少有一口水井冒出臭气。鸡甚至猪都焦躁不安，不愿进食；狗拒绝进入屋内。老鼠跑到田外，寻找藏身之所；鱼儿也跳出水面。1976年7月28日凌晨3：00左右，唐山城外的天空中出现了耀眼亮光，接着又传出巨大的声响。然而，那天晚上城里的百万居民仍像往常一样沉睡在梦乡。
　　凌晨3：42，万物开始摇晃，仿佛世界末日即将来临！在城市正下方的11千米处，20世纪伤亡最严重之一的一场地震爆发了，远在150多千米以外的北京都受到这场地震的破坏，全国几乎三分之一的地区均有震感！一条8千米长、30米宽的巨大裂缝横切房屋、道路和水路；坚硬的石山变成了泥石流。在不到一分钟的时间里，一座大城市沦为废墟。城里三分之二的居民在地震中死亡或受伤，数以千计的孩子失去了父母。在此次地震中丧生或身受重伤的人数超过了40万。
　　幸存者目及之处无一不是废墟，万物尽毁。市内大约75%的工厂和大楼，90%的住所和所有的医院都倒塌了。砖块就像秋天的红叶覆盖着地面，但是却没有风能将其吹走。大多数桥梁不是坍塌了，就是无法安全通行了；铁轨变成了废金属块；数万头奶牛、数十万头猪和数百万只鸡也都死掉了。沙子灌满水井，井水消失殆尽。人们惊恐万状，接着临近傍晚时分，又一场强烈的地震撼动唐山。更多的楼房倒塌了，水、食物和电很难获得。人们心里开始疑惑这场灾难还会持续多久。
　　然而，希望尚存。地震发生后不久，部队派出了15万名士兵奔赴唐山，将受困群众从废墟中挖出，并掩埋死者。上万名医疗工作者赶到现场，救死扶伤。工人们为那些家园被毁的幸存者盖起避难所，数十万的群众获得了帮助，火车、卡车和飞机给城市运来了食物和饮用水。慢慢地，这座城市又开始恢复了生机。
唐山重新站起来并获得了新生。有了来自政府的大力支持以及唐山人民的不懈努力，一座新的唐山在废墟中被建立起来。这座新的城市已经成为700多万人的家园，交通、工业和环境都得到了巨大的改善。唐山向中国、向世界证明，在自然灾害中，人们必须勠力同心，保持积极乐观的心态和重建家园的决心。

Strange things were happening in the countryside① of northeastern

【参考译文】
地球的不眠之夜
河北省东北部的农村地区怪事连连。一连几天，村里的井水升升
降降，起起伏伏。井壁上出现深深的裂缝，至少有一口水井冒出臭
气。鸡甚至猪都焦躁不安，不愿进食；狗拒绝进入屋内。老鼠跑到田
外，寻找藏身之所；鱼儿也跳出水面。1976年7月28日凌晨3：00左
右，唐山城外的天空中出现了耀眼亮光，接着又传出巨大的声响。然
而，那天晚上城里的百万居民仍像往常一样沉睡在梦乡。
　　凌晨3：42，万物开始摇晃，仿佛世界末日即将来临！在城市正
下方的11千米处，20世纪伤亡最严重之一的一场地震爆发了，远在
150多千米以外的北京都受到这场地震的破坏，全国几乎三分之一的
地区均有震感！一条8千米长、30米宽的巨大裂缝横切房屋、道路和
水路；坚硬的石山变成了泥石流。在不到一分钟的时间里，一座大城
市沦为废墟。城里三分之二的居民在地震中死亡或受伤，数以千计的
孩子失去了父母。在此次地震中丧生或身受重伤的人数超过了40万。
　　幸存者目及之处无一不是废墟，万物尽毁。市内大约75%的工厂
和大楼，90%的住所和所有的医院都倒塌了。砖块就像秋天的红叶覆
盖着地面，但是却没有风能将其吹走。大多数桥梁不是坍塌了，就是
无法安全通行了；铁轨变成了废金属块；数万头奶牛、数十万头猪和
数百万只鸡也都死掉了。沙子灌满水井，井水消失殆尽。人们惊恐万
状，接着临近傍晚时分，又一场强烈的地震撼动唐山。更多的楼房倒
塌了，水、食物和电很难获得。人们心里开始疑惑这场灾难还会持续
多久。
然而，希望尚存。地震发生后不久，部队派出了15万名士兵奔赴
唐山，将受困群众从废墟中挖出，并掩埋死者。上万名医疗工作者赶
到现场，救死扶伤。工人们为那些家园被毁的幸存者盖起避难所，数
十万的群众获得了帮助，火车、卡车和飞机给城市运来了食物和饮用
水。慢慢地，这座城市又开始恢复了生机。
唐山重新站起来并获得了新生。有了来自政府的大力支持以及唐
山人民的不懈努力，一座新的唐山在废墟中被建立起来。这座新的城
市已经成为700多万人的家园，交通、工业和环境都得到了巨大的改
善。唐山向中国、向世界证明，在自然灾害中，人们必须勠力同心，
保持积极乐观的心态和重建家园的决心。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
　　This morning my family and I went to a friend’s home to help her get
things back in order.She was one of the unfortunate people whose home
was recently destroyed by a tornado.One side of her home fell off and the
roof was gone over a large part of the house.Torrential rain fell the rest of
the night and all of the next day following the tornado， creating even
more damage to her belongings.The home is a total loss.Still， there is
much that is valuable， and our job today was to help her sort through the
debris and find anything with actual value that she may want to take with
her.
My husband helped to move furniture and other things to the
storeroom while our two younger children helped clean up the yard.My
oldest daughter and her boyfriend helped as well， and my another
daughter with me swept up all of the areas of debris， sorting it for things
that are important.We worked systematically， clearing the main living
space first， then moving on to the kitchen， laundry area， then the
master bedroom.
By the time we were done today， though there was no denying the
home had met with disaster， we had gone far to restore order from the
loss that had been there before.
My thought in entering the day was that our friend， who had been
having trouble sleeping， was being affected by that loss negatively.I
hoped that if we could restore order， she would finally start to feel some
sense of peace and her mind would quiet and allow her the much-needed
rest she so deserves.
She posted on Facebook just a little while ago that for the first time
she was sleeping at night.For me， what a wonderful and deeply
meaningful way to begin the New Year！

　　The worst outbreak of desert locusts （蝗虫） in Kenya in 70 years
has seen hundreds of millions of the bugs swarm into the East African
nation from Somalia and Ethiopia.Those two countries have not had an
infestation （侵扰） like this in a quarter-century， destroying farmland
and threatening the region with serious hunger.
“Even cows are wondering what is happening，” said Ndunda
Makanga， who spent hours Friday trying to chase the locusts from his
farm.“Corn， sorghum， cowpeas， they have eaten everything.”
“Even a small swarm of the insects can consume enough food for
35，000 people in a single day，” said Jens Laerke of the UN
humanitarian office in Geneva.
About 70，000 hectares — 172，973 acres — of land in Kenya are
attacked.A single swarm can contain up to 150 million locusts per square
kilometer of farmland — an area the size of almost 250 football fields，
authorities say.
“We must act immediately，” said David Phiri of the UN Food and
Agricultural Organization.
About $70 million is needed to step up aerial pesticide （杀虫剂）
spraying， the only effective way to fight them， the UN says.That won’t
be easy， especially in Somalia.
Astonished by the finger-length insects， children dash here and
there， waving blankets to shake the locusts free.Farmers are afraid to let
their cattle out for grazing， and their crops are in danger， but there is
little they can do.
One especially large swarm in northeastern Kenya measured 60
kilometers long by 40 kilometers wide （37 miles long by 25 miles wide）.
“The locals are really scared because they can consume everything，”
said Francis Kitoo， deputy director of agriculture in southeastern Kenya’s
Kitui county.“I’ve never seen such a big number.” He expressed his own
concern about the locusts.“They will lay eggs and start another
generation，” he said.
