六、阅读理解
Earthquakes happen very often in Tokyo, but Tokyo is not an unlucky city. Many special parks have been
built in Tokyo to keep people safe during earthquakes. These parks look nothing different from the other parks,
but when earthquakes happen, they become life-saving places.
Many useful things in those special parks can meet people’s basic needs.
For example, it is usually hard for people to get water after earthquakes. In the special parks, people can get
drinking water from the water pump (泵). If people need to use toilets (厕所), they can choose special toilets that
can be used without water. Also, the helicopter (直升机) can land on squares or baseball fields and bring food or
other things to people. What’s more, if people need to cook in the parks, some special benches can become cooking
things.
However, those useful things are not enough for people to face earthquakes. The most important part lies in
training people. The parks, together with fire stations and the police, will train with local people at the usual time.
This will let people think and move faster during real earthquakes and let them protect themselves better.
So, what can we do to protect ourselves from getting hurt in earthquakes First, we need to check our furniture
and make sure they won’t fall down easily. Second, when an earthquake happens, we need to stay under tables or
desks and protect our head. Third, we can keep our door open and wear comfortable shoes during small earthquakes
in order to get out safely.
1. What can we learn about the special parks from Paragraph 1
A. The special parks can stop earthquakes.
B. There aren’t enough special parks in Tokyo.
C. The special parks look different from the common ones.
D. People can be safer in the special parks during earthquakes.
2. During earthquakes, people can find _______________ in these special parks.
① drinking water ② traditional toilets ③ personal planes ④ cooking things
A. ①③ B. ③④ C. ①④ D. ②④
3. Why are useful things “not enough” for people
A. Because they can’t work well.
B. Because self-help is more important.
C. Because the government doesn’t have enough money.
D. Because it’s hard for people to find them during earthquakes
4. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. How to stay safe during earthquakes. B. Why people should check their furniture.
C. How to prepare for danger before it comes. D. What would happen in an earthquake.
5. Where does this reading probably come from
A. Sports report. B. Nature magazine. C. Science research. D. Travel guidebook.
