三、答案:①-⑤ DEBCA
解析:①由"The surface of the earth is divided into different pieces. They are called tectonic plates (构造板块). When two plates suddenly slip past one another, an earthquake happens. This shakes the ground and everything on it."可知, 地球表面被分成不同的部分。它们被称为构造板块。当两个板块突然擦肩而过时, 就会发生地震。这震动了地面和上面的一切事物。所以本段在向读者解释地震是什么。故D选项“地震是什么 ” 符合题意。故D选项正确。
②由"They are the inner core, outer core, mantle (地幔) and the earth's crust (地壳)." 可知, 它们是内核、外核、地幔和地壳。所以设空处要总说“地球有四个主要层”。故E选项“地球有四个主要层。”符合题意。故E选项正确。
③由"These pieces are always sliding around and bumping into each other. Sometimes their edges get stuck together. When this happens, the rest of the plate keeps moving. Eventually the edges come unstuck."可知, 这些碎片总是四处移动、互相碰撞。有时它们的边缘会卡在一起。当这种情况发生的时候, 板块的剩余部分继续移动。最终边缘会松脱。而这时候会发生地震。故B选项“那就是一场地震发生的时候。”符合题意。故B选项正确。
④由"The P wave squeezes and stretches the earth. The S wave shakes it up and down."可知, 纵波挤压并拉伸地球。横波上下摇动地球。所以设空处要总说“地震波有不同的类型。”。故C选项“地震波有不同的类型。”符合题意。故C选项正确。
⑤由"Scientists use special tools to record and measure earthquakes. These tools are called seismographs. Recording from seismographs tells scientists when and where an earthquake took place. It can also tell scientists the size of an earthquake."可知, 科学家们使用特殊工具记录和测量地震。这些工具被称为地震仪。地震仪的记录告诉科学家们地震发生的时间和地点。 它还可以告诉科学家们地震的强弱。所以本段主要在讨论地震是如何被记录的。故A选项“地震是如何被记录的 ”符合题意。故A选项正确。

⑥考查副词。句意:最重要的是,我得学习游泳!本空在句中作状语,故应用副词形式。
⑦考查时态及语态。句意:这样就算高楼被洪水淹没了,我也能活下来。根据主句时态为一般将来时可 知,本空所在的时间状语从句应用一般现在时,且句子主语buildings和动词flood之间为被动关系,故本空应用一般现在时的被动语态。
⑧考查定语从句。句意:我翻阅手里的报纸,震惊地看到亚洲的飓风摧毁了一座城镇的照片。本空引导定语从句,修饰名词photos,本空在从句中作主语,指物,故应用关系代词which或that。
⑨考查it作形式主语。句意:既然在地球上难逃一劫,或许我应该开始考虑移民太空了……本句中不定式短语作真正的主语,故本空应用it作形式主语。
