九、阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项仅使用一次 ,有一个选项 多余。
Nature’s Warnings
When the sky suddenly turns dark and the wind is strong, watch out! 1 Storms are scary. Watch for flashes of lightning. Listen for thunder (雷声). If nature sends these warnings, don’t wait for rain. Act right away to keep safe.
Safety Steps
At the first flash of lightning (闪电), quickly get inside a building or a car. Do not go into a shed (棚) 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 and windows. They can blow in or break. 2
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 do it! It is better to be bored than to risk getting hurt. Try reading a book instead. Reading is more fun than playing computer games.
3 You may feel safe under a tree, but that is not a good place to be. Lightning is pulling toward tall poles and trees. Stay down in an open space and cover your ears to protect them. Loud thunder can seriously hurt your hearing.
Lightning Strikes (雷击)
Lightning does not strike people very often. 4 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 should stay safe during a storm.
A．If you can’t get to somewhere safe, stay out in the open.
B．It is not possible that you will ever see that happens.
C．A room with no windows is the safest place to be.
D．Please keep safe before a heavy storm comes.
E．A dangerous storm might be coming.
【答案】1．E 2．C 3．A 4．B
【解析】

1．根据“When the sky suddenly turns dark and the wind is strong, watch out!”可知，天空变黑、风大是危险风暴要来的迹象，选项E“一场危险的风暴可能要来了”符合语境。故选E。
2．根据“It is not smart to go near doors and windows. They can blow in or break.”可知，说门窗不安全，接着应讲安全的地方，选项C“没有窗户的房间是最安全的地方”符合语境。故选C。
3．根据“You may feel safe under a tree, but that is not a good place to be...Stay down in an open space”可知，这里在讲无法到达安全处时的做法，选项A“如果你到不了安全的地方，就待在开阔处”符合语境。故选A。
4．根据“Lightning does not strike people very often.”以及“If you do, call 120.”可知，说雷击不常见，接着说见到雷击情况的处理，选项B“你不太可能见到那种情况发生”符合语境。故选B。

(A)
The day before yesterday my dad and I went hiking in the mountain. We enjoyed the fresh air and would live in the hotel room for another two days. However, I think what happened next is one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life! A storm woke me up early yesterday. I got up and looked out of the window of our hotel. I listened to the thunder and watched the lightning. It wasn’t scary at that time, but it was exciting!
But then I looked at my phone and saw on the news that a hurricane (飓风) was coming. I asked my dad what a hurricane is and asked him if he knew what to do. He told me not to worry because a hurricane is just a big storm. We stayed in our hotel room and by the afternoon, there was even more rain. And the winds were getting stronger and stronger.
In the evening, a hotel worker asked all the visitors to go to the dining hall. When we were all inside, we put tables in front of the doors and then we got down on the floor together in the corner. We waited and waited. The winds got louder. The rain became heavier and then it suddenly went dark. I was so startled that I held my dad's hand. We stayed there for a long time.
Finally, morning arrived. The storm was over. I felt so happy that we were safe. I hope I will never have a night like that again.

4．细节理解题。根据文章内容，作者的情感变化为：第一段“It wasn’t scary at that time, but it was exciting!”作者兴奋；第二段飓风来临后，作者开始担心；第三段“I was so startled that I held my dad’s hand.”作者害怕；第四段“I felt so happy that we were safe.”作者开心。所以情感变化顺序为：兴奋→担心→害怕→开心。故选A。
5．最佳标题题。文章主要讲述了作者和父亲在山中徒步旅行时遭遇飓风的难忘经历。因此“Experiencing a hurricane”最能概括全文主旨。故选D。

To t 5 how strong a tornado is, scientists look at how much damage it causes and s 6 the levels on the EF-Scale (分级) from EF0 to EF5. For example, if a tornado only damages trees, it will be at the level of EF0, while a tornado at the s 7 level of EF5 blows away buildings with wind speeds over 300 miles per hour.

【导语】本文主要介绍了龙卷风的危险性、形成和消亡原因未知、强度分级以及面对龙卷风时的应对措施。
1．句意：龙卷风可能非常危险。根据“It can have wind speeds over 300 miles per hour”可知，龙卷风的风速可以超过每小时300英里，因此它是非常危险的，dangerous“危险的”，形容词作表语。故填dangerous。
2．句意：它的风速可以超过每小时300英里，在结束前可以行进超过25英里。根据“over 25 miles before ending”可知，此处指龙卷风行进超过25英里，travel“行进”，动词，can后接动词原形。故填travel。

4．句意：因此，龙卷风是如何形成和消亡的仍然是个谜/不确定。根据“Scientists can t go inside tornadoes. That means tornadoes are very hard to study.”可知，科学家无法进入龙卷风内部，这意味着龙卷风很难研究，因此龙卷风是如何形成和消亡的仍然是未知的/不确定的，unknown“未知的”，uncertain“不确定的”，形容词作表语。故填unknown/uncertain。
5．句意：为了判断龙卷风的强度，科学家们观察它造成的破坏程度，并根据EF分级标准（从EF0到EF5）确定/显示等级。根据“how strong a tornado is”可知，判断龙卷风的强度，tell“判断”符合语境，to后跟动词原形。故填tell。
6．句意：为了判断龙卷风的强度，科学家们观察它造成的破坏程度，并根据EF分级标准（从EF0到EF5）确定/显示等级。根据“the levels on the EF-Scale (分级) from EF0 to EF5”可知，根据EF分级标准确定或显示等级，set“确定”和show“显示”符合语境，and连接并列成分，根据“look at”可知，句子时态为一般现在时，主语为复数，谓语动词用原形。故填set/show。
7．句意：例如，如果龙卷风只破坏树木，它将是EF0级，而EF5级的龙卷风风速超过每小时300英里，会吹走建筑物。根据“while a tornado at the...level of EF5 blows away buildings with wind speeds over 300 miles per hour”可知，此处指EF5级是最强的等级，strong“强的”，形容词，此处用其最高级strongest。故填strongest。
8．句意：由于龙卷风可能发生得非常快，所以当你面对它们时，一定要知道该怎么做。根据“tornadoes can happen very quickly”可知，龙卷风可能发生得非常快，这是原因，since“由于”符合语境，位于句首，首字母大写。故填Since。
9．句意：当你发现自己遇到龙卷风时，冷静下来，尽量在室内找到一个安全的地方。根据“When you find y... meeting a tornado”可知，此处指当你发现自己遇到龙卷风时，yourself“你自己”符合语境。故填yourself。

Suddenly, the room went dark. Emma looked up from her book. The lights had gone out. At the same moment, she heard a loud cracking sound from outside. Ben stopped playing and looked at Emma with big, scared eyes.
"Mom!" Emma called out. But before her mom could answer, the wind began to howl. It was the strangest sound Emma had ever heard—like a wild animal screaming.
Emma ran to the window and looked outside. The sky had turned a dark green color. Trees were bending almost to the ground. Then she saw it—a funnel cloud was touching down in the field behind their house.
"Mom! It's a tornado!" Emma shouted.
Their mom ran into the living room. She grabbed Ben with one hand and Emma with the other. "Basement, now!" she yelled.
While they were running down the stairs, Emma heard a terrible crashing sound. She knew it was the sound of their house being torn apart. In the basement, they huddled together in the corner. Ben was crying quietly. Emma held his hand tightly and whispered, "It's okay. We're together."
For what felt like hours, they listened to the roar above them. Then, as suddenly as it had started, it stopped. Silence.
When they finally climbed out of the basement, Emma couldn't believe her eyes. Half of their house was gone. The kitchen was completely destroyed. But there, in the middle of the rubble, was Ben's toy car—still sitting on the floor where he had been playing.
That was the day Emma learned an important lesson. Life can change in an instant. But when you have your family with you, you can get through anything.

Nature’s Warnings
When the sky suddenly turns dark and the wind is strong, watch out! 1 Storms are scary. Watch for flashes of lightning. Listen for thunder (雷声). If nature sends these warnings, don’t wait for rain. Act right away to keep safe.
Safety Steps
At the first flash of lightning (闪电), quickly get inside a building or a car. Do not go into a shed (棚) 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 and windows. They can blow in or break. 2
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 do it! It is better to be bored than to risk getting hurt. Try reading a book instead. Reading is more fun than playing computer games.
3 You may feel safe under a tree, but that is not a good place to be. Lightning is pulling toward tall poles and trees. Stay down in an open space and cover your ears to protect them. Loud thunder can seriously hurt your hearing.
Lightning Strikes (雷击)
Lightning does not strike people very often. 4 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 should stay safe during a storm.
A．If you can’t get to somewhere safe, stay out in the open.
B．It is not possible that you will ever see that happens.
C．A room with no windows is the safest place to be.
D．Please keep safe before a heavy storm comes.
E．A dangerous storm might be coming.

The day before yesterday my dad and I went hiking in the mountain. We enjoyed the fresh air and would live in the hotel room for another two days. However, I think what happened next is one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life! A storm woke me up early yesterday. I got up and looked out of the window of our hotel.
