自然灾害经历 记叙文 283 6分钟
Having lived in California until 1970, my family has felt a number of earthquakes.We have been fortunate, however, to have suffered no bodily harm or property damage.
There is a website that lists all California earthquakes recorded from 1769 to the present.The site lists the dates and times as well as the magnitude (震级) and the exact location of any quake that measured more than 6.0.There are only a few quakes that stand out in my memory and, luckily, none is shown in the website.So, my personal experience with earthquakes might be considered insignificant.
There are three earthquakes that are difficult to forget.The first one was in 1955 and our oldest daughter was walking with me in our backyard in Redwood City in California.As the shaking became stronger I held her to me with one arm as I held on to one of our fruit trees with the other.All three of us (my daughter, I and the tree) shook for two or three minutes that to us felt like hours.
The second one was in 1963.Our entire family was visiting Disneyland in Southern California.The earth started to shake just as we were beginning to walk from our hotel toward the famous landmark.
My third experience with an earthquake was a lonely one in California.It was in my sixties and I was alone in an old church.As the building started to shake, I quickly headed for the door to go outside.I remember I said a little prayer — something like, “Help me get out of here in time, Dear Heavenly Father”.Minutes later, I was safe outside.

地震知识 说明文 245 5分钟
If the crust (外壳) of the earth were not pretty solid (坚固的), it would be shaking about and moving up and down frequently.However, there are places in the rocks of the earth’s crust where it isn’t strongly held together — where faults exist.Along the faults, one rock might push against another with great force.The energy is changed to vibration in the rocks, so they begin to shake and we have an earthquake!
The most famous one in North America was the San Francisco earthquake of 1906.Seven hundred people died and property (财产) damage amounted to about $425,000,000.The greatest destruction came from the fires that followed the quake.
One of the most famous earthquakes in Europe took place in Lisbon, Portugal, in 1755.The city was destroyed and at least thirty thousand people were killed.In 1908, in Calabria and Sicily, a quake killed about seventy-five thousand people.In 1915, in central Italy, hundreds of towns and villages were damaged and thirty thousand people were killed.
Two great earthquakes that caused great damage in Asia took place in Tokyo, Japan, and in Gansu Province in China.The Tokyo quake of 1923 killed more than one hundred thousand people and destroyed the city and the city of Yokohama, too.The Chinese quake in 1920 covered more than three hundred square miles and killed about two hundred thousand people.

概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school, I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas.I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City.While I was standing in line at the cash register (收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.
I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car.I stopped and wondered what I should do.A car pulled up behind me.It was the couple.They said they would take me.We chatted and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.I wrote them a thank-you note.Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them.Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.
Years later, I drove to a meeting in the morning.In the late afternoon I found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery was dead.Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership was right next door.I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.
“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford ” I asked and explained my trouble.They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it.They would accept no payment, so later, I wrote them a note to say thanks.I received a letter back from one of the salesmen.No one had ever written him and say “thank you”, and it meant a lot, he said.
“Thank you” — two powerful words.They’re easy to say and mean so much.
【写作流程】
第一步:归纳主旨大意(含段落大意)
概要写作的第一步便是阅读并抓取主题,进而提取主旨大意,即有关该主题的主要内容或作者在该主题上的观点或主张。

人与自然 保持生态平衡 说明文 349 8分钟
When you were trying to figure out what to buy for the environmentalist on your holiday list, fur probably didn’t cross your mind.But some ecologists and fashion (时装)enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria(海狸鼠).
Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have showcased nutria fur made into clothes in different styles.“It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur—unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year,” says Cree McCree, project director of Righteous Fur.
Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that they decided to pay hunters $5 a tail.Some of the fur ends up in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.
Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild.“The ecosystem down there can’t handle this non-native species(物种).It’s destroying the environment.It’s them or us,” says Michael Massimi, an expert in this field.
The fur trade kept nutria in check for decades,but when the market for nutria collapsed in the late 1980s,the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.
Biologist Edmond Mouton runs the nutria control program for Louisiana.He says it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it.Hunters bring in more than 300,000 nutria tails a year, so part of Mouton’s job these days is trying to promote fur.
Then there’s Righteous Fur and its unusual fashions.Model Paige Morgan says,“To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on them—I think that’s going to be a massive thing, at least here in New York.” Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while to come around to the opinion that using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable.She’s trying to come up with a label to attach to nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly.
【语篇概述】时装设计师正在把海狸鼠的皮毛做成时装进行促销,这不是犯罪。因为海狸鼠属于美国的外来物种,它们正在毁坏着美国的环境和生态系统。
1.What is the purpose of the fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn
A.To promote guilt-free fur.
B.To expand the fashion market.
C.To introduce a new brand.
D.To celebrate a winter holiday.
【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第二段Cree McCree说的话“谈论没有罪恶的皮毛听起来很疯狂——除非你理解每年海狸鼠正在毁坏大片的湿地。”可以推断,在新奥尔良和布鲁克林举办的时装展是为了促销海狸鼠的皮毛做成的时装。故选A。
2.Why are scientists concerned about nutria
A.Nutria damage the ecosystem seriously.
B.Nutria are an endangered species.
C.Nutria hurt local cat-sized animals.
D.Nutria are illegally hunted.
【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据第三、四段可知,科学家关心海狸鼠是因为它们正在严重地毁坏美国的生态系统,破坏环境。故选A。
3.What does the underlined word “collapsed” in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A.Boomed. B.Became mature.
C.Remained stable. D.Crashed.
【解析】选D。词义猜测题。collapsed所在的句子的意思:皮毛交易使海狸鼠在数十年中得到控制,但是海狸鼠市场在20世纪80年代后期崩溃了,这种和猫一样大的动物疯狂繁殖。collapse表示“崩溃,(价格、货币等)暴跌”,crash也有此意。故选D。
4.What can we infer about wearing fur in New York according to Morgan
A.It’s formal. B.It’s risky.
C.It’s harmful. D.It’s traditional.
【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据最后一段中Morgan说的话“为了给人们一种无罪恶感的选择,那就是他们可以穿海狸鼠皮毛时装,没有人会指责他们——我认为指责是大规模的事情,至少在纽约是这样的。”可以推断出,在纽约穿皮毛时装会遭到严厉的反对,所以在纽约穿这样的衣服是很冒险的。故选B。
【难句剖析】
He says it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it.
分析:it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green是宾语从句,作says的宾语。宾语从句中it是形式主语,动词不定式to convince people that nutria fur is green是真正的主语。在此动词不定式中,that nutria fur is green是宾语从句,作convince的宾语。
翻译:他说,虽然说服人们相信海狸鼠皮毛是环保的是不容易的,但是他对此毫不怀疑。
正确认识破坏生态平衡的罪魁祸首,感受与体验人与自然和谐相处的重要性。人类能对生态系统平衡产生重大影响,也能为保持生态系统的平衡做出自己的努力。认识到保护生态平衡的重要性,让我们行动起来,积极投入到保护生态平衡的队伍中去,共建人与自然和谐之美。

澳大利亚山火 新闻报道 301 6分钟
The wildfires damaging parts of Australia can be seen from space in new satellite images released by NASA.Australia’s capital, Canberra, was enveloped in a smoky haze Sunday and air quality at midday was measured at 10 times the usual dangerous limit.The damaging fires have killed at least 24 people in Australia and destroyed almost 2,000 homes.The early and damaging start to Australia’s summer wildfires, fed by drought and the country’s hottest and driest year on record, has also been catastrophic (毁灭性的) for the country’s wildlife, likely killing nearly 500 million birds, reptiles and mammals in New South Wales alone, Sydney University ecologist Chris Dickman told the Sydney Morning Herald.
Under such extreme conditions, the fires have been generating enough heat to create their own weather systems, including fire-generated thunderstorms and fire tornadoes.Thousands of firefighters continued to fight the flames that have burned millions of acres in New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia, an area twice the size of Maryland.In New South Wales, the rural fire service (RFS) said as of Sunday there were 150 fires active in the state, 64 of them uncontrolled.
On Saturday, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced that, for the first time in Australian history, 3,000 army, navy and air force reservists (后备军人) will battle against the fires.He also committed $14 million to hiring fire-fighting aircraft from overseas.On Sunday, cooler temperatures and lighter winds brought some relief to threatened communities, a day after thousands were forced to escape as flames reached the suburban areas of Sydney.Thousands of firefighters fought to contain the fires, but many fires continued to burn out of control, threatening to wipe out rural townships and causing almost incalculable damage to property and wildlife.

灾害影响 说明文 318 6分钟
Since September about 11m hectares of Australia have been in flames.This year’s fires are the worst on record, with at least 26 people dead, about half-billion animals burned alive, and over 2,300 homes destroyed.Australians of all species are suffering the most.But the fires have serious consequences for the rest of the world, too.
New Zealand, one of Australia’s closest neighbors, is feeling the effects of the bushfires.The most important effect of the fires might be on the country’s glaciers, about which Helen Clark, New Zealand’s former prime minister, tweeted: “Australian bushfires have created haze in New Zealand with particular impact on the South Island yesterday and now spreading more widely.Impact of ash on glaciers is likely to speed melting.” Melting glaciers could open up a future none of us wants to suffer.
There’s no such thing as weather that happens in isolation.As a recent Forbes article reports, fires have the potential to not only block visibility for airplanes, grounding them, but to create pockets of hotter or colder air, or create situations where the weather is increasingly less stable — although no one is yet certain how far from the Australian continent those effects might wander, or how harmful they may prove to be.
In addition to coal, Australia also exports all kinds of agricultural products — like beef and wool—particularly to Asian countries including China and Japan.But what happens when the land it uses to grow all that food and fiber is destroyed by fire Obviously, no more goods to export, which creates a huge problem in the international supply chain.Thanks to globalization, pretty much no country eats only the food it grows.What happens to the global food supply as agricultural land in Australia and other export nation’s burns to a crisp
【语篇概述】这是一篇说明文。本文主要从新西兰冰川的融化、周边国家气候变化和世界农产品出口三个方面介绍了自2019年9月开始的澳洲山火对世界造成的巨大影响。
5.What can we learn about the Australian bushfires
A.They’ve left most of Australian land in flames.
B.They’ve speeded the melting of glaciers.
C.They will certainly create hotter air.
D.No one is certain how harmful their effects will be on climate.
【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第三段中的no one is yet certain how far from the Australian continent those effects might wander, or how harmful they may prove to be可知,没有人能够确定这些影响会蔓延至澳洲之外多远的地方,也无人能证实影响有多严重。由此可知,没有人确定澳大利亚的森林大火对气候的影响有多大。故选D。
6.What’s the author’s attitude towards the future of the global food supply
A.Doubtful. B.Objective.
C.Concerned. D.Indifferent.
【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,当澳洲和其他出口国的耕地都被烧得精光时,全球食物供应会发生什么变化 由此可推知,作者是在担心全球食物供应。故选C。
7.What is the best title for the text
A.The Effects of the Australian Bushfires on Climate Change
B.Australian Bushfires: a Big Disaster to the Country
C.What the Australian Bushfires Mean for the Rest of the World
D.Why the Australian Bushfires Affect the Rest of the World
【解析】选C。主旨大意题。根据第一段最后一句可知,但是大火也对世界其他地区造成了严重的后果。再结合文章主要介绍大火对世界其他地方造成的影响可知,C选项“澳大利亚的森林大火对世界其他地方意味着什么”适合做本文最佳标题。故选C。

The United States has more tornadoes (龙卷风) than any other country in the world.In a normal year there are 800 to 1,000 tornadoes.Most happen in the middle part of the country.Tornadoes form when warm and cool air meet.In the Midwest, the warm air from the Gulf of Mexico often meets the cold air from Canada.
The usual tornado season is March through May.Tornadoes form most often in the afternoon and early evening.There is often no warning of a tornado.People who live in the Midwest know the signs (征兆) of tornado activity.The sky becomes dark, often a greenish color.Dark clouds appear in the sky and there is often large hail (冰雹).Suddenly, there is a loud sound, like a train or a jet plane.Sometimes, two, three, five, ten or more tornadoes can form over a large area.
This type of tornado activity hit Oklahoma and Kansas in May 1999.The day was stormy, with heavy thunderstorms in the afternoon.As the storms continued, tornadoes began to form.Dozens of tornadoes hit towns and neighborhoods in Oklahoma, then in Kansas.Some stayed on the ground for several hours, destroying everything they touched.The tornadoes killed 43 people and injured 600 others.They destroyed thousands of homes and businesses.In some areas, not one home stood.In other areas, the tornadoes destroyed every home on the left side of the street, but didn’t touch any homes on the right side.The tornadoes lifted people and cars into the air and then threw them back down to earth.So it is important to know where to hide and how to protect yourself in the face of a tornado.

飓风 说明文 259 6分钟
Meteorologists (气象学家)love hurricanes because they are wonders of nature.But if you’re on a ship at sea or in a house on the beach, a hurricane is not so pretty.1. At the shore they can punch out windows, knock down trees, or blow away the roofs from houses.
2. Hurricane winds can push the ocean water toward shore, building it up into a huge, rushing tide called a storm surge.Water level at the shore can rise 20 feet in just a few hours.The deadliest hurricane in United States history happened in 1900, when Galveston, Texas, was struck.3. These days, with more and more people living in coastal cities, experts predict that if a hurricane hit without warning, the death toll could be even higher.
4. Meteorologists can now track the path a hurricane takes and predict where it is likely to hit days in advance.When Hurricane Isabel swept toward the North Carolina coast in 2003, the National Hurricane Center was able to make forecasts five days ahead, and scientists were off by only one hour in their prediction of where and when Isabel’s eye would make landfall.The information collected by the hurricane hunters improves the accuracy of such forecasts by 30 percent.5.
A.So thousands of lives have been saved.
B.The hurricane happened without warning.
C.It is hard to predict the time and the path of a hurricane.
D.In the big storm more than 6, 000 people were killed.
E.But scientists have learned a lot about hurricanes since 1900.
F.The screaming winds and enormous waves can overturn a ship.
G.The most dangerous part of a hurricane’s destruction is flooding.
【语篇概述】飓风是大自然的奇迹,但是飓风会给人们带来灾难。 随着科学技术的发展,气象学家可以准确地预测飓风。

2.【解析】选G。根据下文提到的water和所举的例子可知,本段讲述的是飓风引起的洪灾危害,所以选G项。
3.【解析】选D。所举的例子是1900年发生在美国的飓风所引起的洪水,根据上文提到的deadliest可知,应该是有很多人死亡,D项符合语境。
4.【解析】选E。本段中提到的飓风,科学家五天前就做出了精准的预测。由此可知,E项可作本段的主题句。
5.【解析】选A。前面提到科学家对此类飓风的预测准确率提高了30%, A项“因此挽救了成千上万人的生命”是其结果。
