本文由两则新闻报道组成，具有鲜明的新闻体裁的文体特征。新闻报道的第一段往往讲明时间、地点、人物、主要事件以及结果，随后各段着重描述事件发生的细节，并补充相关信息。 阅读时应细读首段，理清新闻报道的人物、时间、地点及主要事件。如第一则新闻的首段首句“FALMONT — On 17 March, 476 students and 36 teachers at Falmont Primary School escaped an earthquake that hit the county at 2：27 p．m.”将涉及的时间、地点、人物、事件全部涵盖在内。
(一)赏用词之妙　
1．Only 5 students suffered slight injuries, despite the current figures of 7 killed and over 200 injured in the disaster area at large.
赏析：本句中使用了形容词slight“轻微的”，更确切地描写出地震发生后，弗尔蒙特小学的师生受影响较小的情况。形容词的使用可以使描写对象更形象具体。
2．After a roll call confirmed that all were safe and sound, they relaxed, laughing, crying and hugging each other.
赏析：safe and sound这一短语描写出师生们安然无恙地从地震中逃生。laughing、 crying和hugging几个动词的连用则写出了他们死里逃生后的激动心情。
3．...so the kids were calm enough to protect themselves during the earthquake.
赏析：本句中enough修饰形容词calm，描绘出了学生们在地震发生时冷静的表现。
4．To her great relief, the officer immediately realized the coming danger.
赏析：本句中使用了副词immediately来修饰动词realized，以此更准确地表达出安全员的快速反应。
[提能训练]　(完成句子)

约翰足够大了，可以独自生活了。
(二)赏句式之高　
1．At the same time, Miss Brown quickly opened the classroom door, in case it became damaged during the shaking and could not open.
赏析：本句中使用了in case引导的目的状语从句，解释了布朗老师开门的原因，表现出了布朗老师在危急情况下的沉着、冷静。
2．There were loud crashes of glass breaking and things falling to the ground, but the students remained still and waited calmly and quietly.
赏析：本句中but引导的转折分句与前半句形成对照，凸显了危急情况下，学生们的冷静与沉着。
3．NEWDALE — On 20 December, a series of huge waves caused by an undersea earthquake raced across the ocean near Goldshore and left thousands dead.
赏析：本句中使用了过去分词短语caused by ...作a series of huge waves的定语。过去分词(短语)作定语是写作中的高级表达，可以使语言运用更简洁、高效。
4．People were walking, running or simply sitting on the sandy beach, enjoying the warm sea air and the soft wind that brushed their hair.
赏析：本句中使用了现在分词短语enjoying the warm sea air and the soft wind作伴随状语，形象生动地表现出海啸来临前人们欢快畅玩的景象。
[提能训练]　(单句语法填空/完成句子)
①The girls were gathering in the hall, singing and dancing, ____________ (celebrate) the important festival.

(三)赏描摹之韵(场景描写)　
1．Her students' reaction was quick and correct — they moved under their desks, head first, and held on to the legs of the desks.At the same time, Miss Brown quickly opened the classroom door, in case it became damaged during the shaking and could not open.
赏析：本段文字描述了地震发生时师生们的反应。首先，作者用quick and correct对他们的反应进行了评价，然后用moved under、 head first、 held on to、 quickly opened等词描述他们是如何迅速而正确地应对地震局面的。第一句中的破折号起到解释说明的作用，at the same time自然衔接前后文，同时呈现了面对地震时，老师和学生各自做出的应对。
2．The moment the shaking stopped, Miss Brown sensed it was the best time for the class to make their escape.She signalled to her students to exit the classroom in an orderly line covering their heads with their hands.Within one minute and twenty seconds, the whole class went down the stairs and rushed to the playground.Soon students from other classes arrived too.After a roll call confirmed that all were safe and sound, they relaxed, laughing, crying and hugging each other.
赏析：此段文字讲述了师生们逃到安全地带的过程。首先，作者运用the moment引导的时间状语从句描述了老师所作的迅速反应，同时，sense、 signal、 rush、 relax等一系列的动作描写贴切地再现了当时的场景，准确地描述了地震中师生们的行动。此外，作者运用in an orderly line以及covering their heads with their hands形象地描写了学生们有序撤离的场景；时间状语Within one minute and twenty seconds强调了行动的迅速；safe and sound交代了撤离的效果。最后一句中运用几个并列的现在分词作伴随状语生动地呈现了师生们劫后余生的激动场面。
(四)赏逻辑之巧　
Sabrina was frightened, but she soon kept her head.She warned her parents of the danger, though at first they just thought she was joking.However, Sabrina was certain that a terrible disaster was on its way and kept asking her parents to talk to a safety officer.To her great relief, the officer immediately realized the coming danger.The beach was rapidly cleared of people, just before the huge waves crashed into the coast.
赏析：作者使用了but、 though、 However、 before等连接词条理清晰地描绘出事件的情节线(明线)：感知危险→告知父母→父母不信→Sabrina坚持→通知安全员→游客撤离→海啸来临。同时，frightened、 kept her head、 to her great relief等词也生动地描写了Sabrina的心理活动，清晰地呈现了本段描写中感情线(暗线)的变化：恐惧→冷静→积极应对→如释重负。
自然灾害是人与自然矛盾的一种表现形式，是人类过去、现在、将来所面对的最严峻的挑战之一。自然灾害给人们的生命和财产带来了极大的威胁，意外遭遇自然灾害时，我们需要保持镇定，鼓起勇气，冷静应对。阅读下面的短文，学习文中描写的人们团结一心战胜灾害的决心和对未来生活充满希望的乐观的人生态度。
Stars after the storm
It's strange, but I don't really remember much about the hurricane itself.It all happened so quickly.I was sitting in my room with my cat, Smartie, on my lap, when the roof just flew off.All of a sudden, there was sky where the roof had been.I was so frightened that I just froze.
Mom cried to get out quickly, but it was already too late by then.The rain was coming down so hard and so fast.Our street turned into a river in seconds.We were going nowhere.
At first, I was pleased we could stay at home, but soon it got really tough.Without a roof, staying inside was too dangerous.There was water everywhere, but we couldn't drink any of it otherwise we'd get really sick.We just had drinking water that was sent to us by helicopter, but it was never enough.It was August, so it was really, really hot and it smelled so bad everywhere!
Living in the open air, we became breakfast, lunch and dinner for the mosquitos.But Mom said that whatever happens, we should always try to see the good side of things. It was difficult to stay positive, though.We had lost our home and everything in it, including Smartie.All we had left were the clothes on our backs.But as Mom kept on reminding us, we were all together and safe.Mom's words made us feel better.I remember us all lying under the midnight sky and looking up at the stars.Because there were no lights, we could see the Big Dipper, the Little Dipper and the Milky Way.It was amazing! Even though we had lost a lot, moments like those gave us hope for the future.
Now, one year has passed.Although we are surrounded by reminders of the disaster, we are working together to rebuild our homes and our lives.Now we have another chance to look up at the stars of New Orleans, .

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Nobody expects a natural disaster to strike.Neither does anyone know the impact it can have on life.The following measures can save your life in an emergency.
Typhoon
Typhoons occur in the northwestern Pacific Ocean, particularly in exposed regions like the Caroline Islands, the Philippines, and Japan.The best place to hide during a typhoon is a secure basement or a bathroom with no windows.A must－have device is a battery－powered weather radio, through which you will hear evacuation orders or in other cases, instructions on how to survive in your shelter and learn about the weather situation.
Flood
Floods occur more often than any other natural disaster and change the landscape dramatically.They are usually caused by intense rainfalls lasting for days.Don't try to be the bravest person around and stay in your house.Once you hear the evacuation warning, leave for safer higher grounds with your important papers in a waterproof container.
Avalanche (雪崩)
An avalanche can hit when you are enjoying Alpine skiing in a dreamlike location.It is very fast and disastrous, burying everything in its way under tons of snow.When an avalanche starts, try to move to the side of the slope as fast as you can.If you get buried in the snow, dig an air pocket to be able to keep breathing.Wait for the rescue team to find you and don't waste your energy shouting or digging frantically.Call out when you hear the team approaching.
Wildfire
Wildfires spread at an amazing speed and destroy everything in their way.If you are caught in a wildfire, use a wet cloth to cover your nose and mouth to ensure that you can breathe.Try to stay upwind of the fire at all times and get close to a pond or river.Stay low and cover yourself with wet clothing, a blanket, or soil until the fire passes.
语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了在遇到自然灾害时应该怎样挽救自己的生命。
1．Among the four natural disasters, which one requires people to hide indoors
A．Typhoon.　　　　　　 B．Flood.
C．Avalanche. D．Wildfire.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段的“The best place to hide during a typhoon is a secure basement or a bathroom with no windows.”可知，台风发生时人们需要躲在室内。
√
2．What should those trapped in floods probably do when they hear the evacuation orders
A．Get to a basement or windowless bathroom.
B．Find something solid to hide under.
C．Leave the place where they are.
D．Get a torch in case of a blackout.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知，当听到撤离命令时，那些被困在洪水中的人可能会离开他们所在的地方。
√
3．What do we know from the text
A．Typhoons occur only in the exposed regions in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.
B．Floods cause the most frequent damage among the disasters mentioned.
C．Those who meet with avalanches are advised to call out the minute they're trapped.
D．Getting clean air matters most in the case of wildfires, despite the difficulty.
√
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段的“Floods occur more often than any other natural disaster and change the landscape dramatically.”可知，在上述灾害中，洪水造成的破坏最为频繁。
B( )
Living on the Florida Emerald Coast, people view a hurricane as a common thing.So it is not unusual for a family to have several full gas cans and bottled water stored in their houses all summer.
Though unwilling to evacuate from a hurricane，on September 15, my family was forced to leave our home for my grandfather's house several miles away.We spent the early part of that evening watching the hurricane draw closer on the Weather Channel.Around nine o'clock, a loud sound shook the house, turned over the roof and carried it off.Soon came an indoor rainstorm.
Realizing the damage, my grandfather began to be afraid.The storm had started, but he still ran out into the heavy rain and wind to see how much of the roof was left.We got him back inside.I had never seen him so scared.Mom finally asked him to lie down in his room.

Friday night tornadoes hit the Midwest of Nebraska, causing a building to fall down with dozens of people inside and destroying and damaging hundreds of homes.
By Saturday morning, the sounds of chain saws filled the air in the Elkhorn neighborhood of Omaha, a city of 485,000 people.Broken furniture from the damaged homes lay in piles.Fences (篱笆) were knocked over and trees were blown down to the ground.
“We could hear it coming through，” said Pat Woods, who lives in Elkhorn.“When we came up, our fence was gone and we looked to the northwest and the whole neighborhood's gone.” Omaha Police Lt.Neal Bonacci said that the Fire Department had completed its search of damaged homes and structures on Saturday.He described the injuries as slight.“You definitely see the path of the tornado，” he said.
“People had warnings of this and that saved lives，” Omaha Police Chief Todd Schmaderer said.The tornado warning was issued in the Omaha area on Friday afternoon just as children were due to be released from school.Many schools had students shelter in place until the storm passed.
People are not encouraged to go to the damaged areas just for entertainment, as it will cause traffic jams and may slow emergency vehicles.Meanwhile, Nebraska Gov.Jim Pillen posted on the Internet that he had ordered state resources to be made available to help.“Nebraskans are no strangers to pretty bad weather, and, as they have many times before, Nebraskans will help Nebraskans to rebuild，” Pillen said.
The storm caused 78 potential (潜在的) tornadoes.The National Weather Service had not yet confirmed their strength.But the Omaha office said that some of the damage seem to have been caused by a strong tornado with peak winds of 150 mph.
One of the tornadoes hit an industrial building to the west of Omaha, in Nebraska's Lancaster County, causing it to fall down with 70 people inside.Several were trapped, but everyone was evacuated and the three injuries were not life－threatening, authorities said.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Nobody expects a natural disaster to strike.Neither does anyone know the impact it can have on life.The following measures can save your life in an emergency.
Typhoon
Typhoons occur in the northwestern Pacific Ocean, particularly in exposed regions like the Caroline Islands, the Philippines, and Japan.The best place to hide during a typhoon is a secure basement or a bathroom with no windows.A must－have device is a battery－powered weather radio, through which you will hear evacuation orders or in other cases, instructions on how to survive in your shelter and learn about the weather situation.
Flood
Floods occur more often than any other natural disaster and change the landscape dramatically.They are usually caused by intense rainfalls lasting for days.Don't try to be the bravest person around and stay in your house.Once you hear the evacuation warning, leave for safer higher grounds with your important papers in a waterproof container.
Avalanche (雪崩)
An avalanche can hit when you are enjoying Alpine skiing in a dreamlike location.It is very fast and disastrous, burying everything in its way under tons of snow.When an avalanche starts, try to move to the side of the slope as fast as you can.If you get buried in the snow, dig an air pocket to be able to keep breathing.Wait for the rescue team to find you and don't waste your energy shouting or digging frantically.Call out when you hear the team approaching.
Wildfire
Wildfires spread at an amazing speed and destroy everything in their way.If you are caught in a wildfire, use a wet cloth to cover your nose and mouth to ensure that you can breathe.Try to stay upwind of the fire at all times and get close to a pond or river.Stay low and cover yourself with wet clothing, a blanket, or soil until the fire passes.
1．Among the four natural disasters, which one requires people to hide indoors
A．Typhoon.　　　　　　 B．Flood.
C．Avalanche. D．Wildfire.
2．What should those trapped in floods probably do when they hear the evacuation orders
A．Get to a basement or windowless bathroom.
B．Find something solid to hide under.
C．Leave the place where they are.
D．Get a torch in case of a blackout.
3．What do we know from the text
A．Typhoons occur only in the exposed regions in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.
B．Floods cause the most frequent damage among the disasters mentioned.
C．Those who meet with avalanches are advised to call out the minute they're trapped.
D．Getting clean air matters most in the case of wildfires, despite the difficulty.
B()
Living on the Florida Emerald Coast, people view a hurricane as a common thing.So it is not unusual for a family to have several full gas cans and bottled water stored in their houses all summer.
Though unwilling to evacuate from a hurricane，on September 15, my family was forced to leave our home for my grandfather's house several miles away.We spent the early part of that evening watching the hurricane draw closer on the Weather Channel.Around nine o'clock, a loud sound shook the house, turned over the roof and carried it off.Soon came an indoor rainstorm.
Realizing the damage, my grandfather began to be afraid.The storm had started, but he still ran out into the heavy rain and wind to see how much of the roof was left.We got him back inside.I had never seen him so scared.Mom finally asked him to lie down in his room.
The leak had progressed rapidly.It soon became a race against time to protect what was saved.Some people may think it necessary to save material things, but I hoped to save those items with emotional value, such as the photos.I still feared the storm, but I more feared the influence it brought.
The next morning, it started to clear up.Thankfully, my family weathered the storm, though the same could not be said for the house.Only the wooden beams remained, but inside many of his things were safe.My mom and I had worked tirelessly through the night.
It was late, but we were still unwilling to go to bed.We discussed the rebuilding of the house.Under the beautiful sky, we suggested looking after my grandfather more often in the future.After this disaster, I realized the truth that the hurricane itself was not so terrible if we loved each other.
