Last Friday, I had a really bad day. While I was having breakfast with my younger sister, the sky was growing darker and darker. I heard thunder and saw lightning. When I left the house, it was already rainy and stormy.
The rain caused heavy traffic. The bus didn’t come for a long time, so I had to walk slowly to school. The wind was cold, and I soon caught a cold. It was too dark to see the road clearly, and I even stepped into a puddle.
When I finally got to school, my nose was running and I felt freezing. But my teacher told us great news—we could go home early because of the bad weather! My mom came to pick me up right away and made me hot soup. My bad day ended up not being so bad after all.

A. 回答问题
请阅读下面短文，根据所提供的信息，回答5个问题，要求所写答案语法正确、语义完整切题，并将答案写在答题卡对应题目的答题位置上。
What is an avalanche (雪崩) It is a kind of sudden natural disaster and usually happens in the mountains. During an avalanche a lot of snow and ice move down the mountains. When they fall, the snow and ice move faster and faster. In fact, snow from an avalanche can move as fast as two hundred miles an hour.
四、强化训练
Most avalanches happen after big snowstorms. In the mountains like the Alps and the Himalayas, there is snow and ice all year round. After big storms, there will be much new snow on the old snow in the mountains. However, too much new snow may cause the old snow to pour down.
When heavy snow moves down the mountains, it brings trees and rocks along. Avalanches are very dangerous, because they can push down houses and kill people. Luckily, not many people live in the mountains. So not many people die from avalanches each year.
However, climbers love to have fun in the snow mountains. Scientists usually can tell if an avalanche might happen. They should pay more attention to scientists’ warnings before they go climbing.
