Most of us know about fires, earthquakes, droughts and floods. But from time to time, Mother Nature surprises us, and brings a terrible weather event . Here are some examples of unusual weather.
Strange rain: One day in 2005, people in a small town in Serbia looked out their windows and saw an unusual sight. It was raining frogs! Without any warning （提醒）, they found the streets full of small animals jumping about. “There were thousands of them,” someone said. “I thought maybe a plane carrying frogs exploded （爆炸）,” said another. Scientists believe the tornado passed over the lake, lifted the frogs into the air, and then dropped them in a remote Serbian town.
Tornadoes （strong windstorms moving in a circle） of Fire: Tornadoes don’t seem to be dangerous enough, but some of them can be made of fire. When a wildfire reaches very high temperatures, it causes the air to become hot and to rise. Cooler air rushes in to replace （替代） hot air. This causes strong winds. These winds suck away （吸走） burning plants and even the fire itself. When this happens, just as it did in Denver on March 14, 2014, a tornado of fire was produced. This tornado can be up to 15 meters wide and up to 40 stories high.
Great Balls of Ice: In 1942, hundreds of thousands of years skeletons （骨骼） were found under the ice of Lake Roopkund in the Himalayas. Many had holes in their skulls （头盖骨）. But they weren’t hurt in any other way. Scientists thought the people must have been hit from above. But for years, they haven’t found out the cause of their deaths.
Today, scientists think these people were killed by giant hailstones—balls of ice. The blocks of ice grew bigger and bigger and turned into hail, until the wind couldn’t lift them and the hail fell to the ground, often at a speed of over 160 kilometres an hour. Unlucky people at Lake Roopkund had nowhere to run away, so they were all killed by the hailstones.
31．Which one is TRUE about the frogs raining down in Serbia
A．They fell out of an airplane that exploded.
B．They grew in the clouds and then fell down to Earth.
C．A heavy rain brought the frogs from a town far away.
D．A tornado took them from a lake and dropped them over the town.
32．We can put the sentence “This makes them very dangerous.” at the end of ________. A．Paragraph 1 B．Paragraph 2 C．Paragraph 3 D．Paragraph 4
33．What happens when little pieces of ice move around in the wind
A． They become higher. B．They become bigger.
C．They fall to the ground as snow. D．They become raindrops.
34．What can we know according to the passage
A．People’s activities cause these three weather events.
B．People in Serbia knew there might be a strange rain.
C．High temperatures cause hotter air to replace cool air.
D．People at Lake Roopkund were killed by balls of ice from the sky.
35．What is the best title for the passage
A．Unusual Weather B．Mother Nature
C．Humans VS Nature D．Unusual Tornadoes
C
