Named after Camp Creek Road, its place of origin, the fire started on November 8, 2018 and killed at least 71 people.More than 1,000 people are reported to be missing, although officials say that number could increase.
The fire has been heavily sweeping the Sierra Nevada forest since last Friday, according to the California firefighting office, Calfire.1,500 firefighters were sent to the affected area, but difficult conditions have prevented their activities and access to the area.
The fire has had huge fuel (燃料) as a result of wood from dead trees — 27 million died last year after years of dry weather — plus leaves and grass dried by heat.
Evacuations (疏散) were ordered in several camps and in other areas.Calfire asked people to get ready to escape, considering high temperatures for the next few days.
The fire forced the shutdown of a highway and one of the entrances to Yosemite National Park.Meanwhile, scores of people have become sick and the air in northern California has been listed the world's worst.
Heavy rain is coming next week that could reduce the flames but also bring floods on hillsides.
According to experts, the main causes of the wildfires are the weather, climate change and population change.
语篇解读:本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了加州一场森林大火 坎普大火 的相关情况,包括它的起火点、发生时间、火势、造成的伤亡以及救援工作。
4.Where did the fire happen at the beginning

5.What made the fire continue
A.Climate change.
B.Firefighters' action.
C.People's evacuation.
D.Dry wood in the forest.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知,这场大火燃烧的大量的燃料来自大量的枯树,由于多年的干燥天气,2 700万棵树木都成了枯树,再加上树叶和草被高温烤干,由此可知,森林中干燥的树木(枯树)使大火持续燃烧,故D项正确。
6.What result has the fire caused
A.Floods happened there.
B.27 million trees were dead.
C.The Yosemite National Park was closed.
D.The air became worse in northern California.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“Meanwhile, scores of people ...the world's worst.”可知,大火导致许多人患病,并且使加州北部的空气质量被列为世界最糟糕的(加州北部的空气质量变得更糟了),故D项正确。

Scientists know where earthquakes are likely to take place.But it is difficult for them to predict how strong an earthquake will be.Now, American researchers have found it possible to predict the strength of future quakes.
The earth's crust — the outermost surface — is made up of large plates.These plates cover the earth.They move slowly, sometimes sliding under one another and causing the earthquakes.
Timothy H.Dixon is a geologist (地质学家) in the University of South Florida, who studies rocks and soil to understand the earth.He and other scientists are using global positioning system, or GPS, to measure what he calls “slow-slip” events.
Timothy Dixon says that while people can't feel a building breaking off,sometimes deadly earthquakes will happen.The big Japan earthquake in 2011 and the Sumatra earthquake and tsunami in 2004 are the kind, and they are the real killers.So what we think these slow-slip events are telling us is that they're letting off steam in areas where there is a break.And if they let off enough steam, the areas won't crack.“The more of the areas that break,” he says,“the more powerful the earthquake is.”
The scientists set up a number of GPS receivers 15 years ago in Costa Rica to measure the “slow-slip” events,which take place only every year or two.The last one was three months before an earthquake in 2012.
You know an earthquake is more or less inevitable.People always want to know when an earthquake is going to happen.This technology cannot predict that.But Timothy Dixon says even if you don't know exactly when it's going to happen, since you know it's going to happen, and you know how big it's going to be, you can prepare accordingly.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文,主要是想告诉读者一项新的科学发现,即地震的强度在未来有可能被预测。
8.According to the passage,what can scientists predict about earthquakes at present
A.When an earthquake will happen.
B.Where an earthquake may happen.
C.How strong an earthquake will be.
D.What kind of the earthquake will be.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据首段第一、二句可知,科学家知道地震可能在什么地方发生,但是很难预测地震的强度。故选B。
9.What does the underlined word “inevitable” in the last paragraph mean
A.Unavoidable. B.Unpredictable.
C.Powerful. D.Terrible.
解析:选A 词义猜测题。 根据最后一段的语境,可以猜测画线词意为“难以避免的”,故选A。
10.From Timothy Dixon's words, what can we know
A.We can't predict when an earthquake will happen forever.
B.His new findings will prevent earthquakes happening.
C.His new findings will help people reduce damage caused by earthquake.
D.His new findings have been used in researching earthquakes.
解析:选C 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句可知,Timothy Dixon说:“即使你不能确切地知道地震什么时候会发生,但既然你知道它会发生,而且知道强度会有多大,你就可以相应地做一些准备。”由于提前做一些准备,自然损失就会减小,故选C。
11.What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage
A.To tell us the reason why an earthquake can happen.
B.To tell us that the strength of an earthquake can be predicted in the future.
C.To tell us what Timothy H.Dixon is doing in his spare time.
D.To tell us the advantage of knowing the strength of future earthquakes.
解析:选B 写作意图题。根据全文内容可知,本文主要是想告诉读者一项新的科学发现,即地震的强度在未来有可能被预测。
D
Villavicencio, a shabby city of half a million people, considers itself the city of half a gateway to los llanos, Colombia's eastern plains.Now and for the next few months few people will be passing through it.Mudslides (泥石流) since May have blocked the main highway, the Vaal Llano, which connects the city to Bogota, Colombia's capital.More rocks and mud threaten workers trying to unblock the road, along which two-thirds of domestically produced goods are transported.Colombia's government says this could take up to three months.
Residents of Villavicencio and the surrounding plains are beginning to feel the consequences.Potatoes, garlic and eggs have become scarce in grocery stores.Shoppers hunt through produce bins to find the few tomatoes and carrots that have not rotted.More than 90% of hotel reservations in the plain's region have been cancelled.
Colombia is a road-builder's nightmare.The Andes (安第斯山脉) separate into three ranges at the southern border.The mountains can climb to 4,000 metres from sea level in less than 100km.Colombia gets more rain than any other country in the world, which makes it harder to keep the road in good condition.Short of cash, the government has given private firms special rights to build roads.Vaal Llano, among the earliest projects built in this way, are likely to cause accidents.
To relieve los llanos's isolation (隔离), Satena, a state-owned airline, and EasyFly have announced more flights between Bogota and Villavicencio.The government has currently stopped passenger fees on flights between the cities.Goods can get through on two smaller alternative roads and money paid to use the two roads will be halved.But what the plains need most is a road that can cope with Colombia's dangerous, rain-soaked topography (地形).That goes for much of the rest of the country.
语篇解读:本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了哥伦比亚的一条主要公路干线发生泥石流后,给周围城市造成的影响以及采取的措施。
12.We can learn from the text that the highway the Vaal Llano ________.
A.is considered half a gateway to los llanos
B.connects los llanos and Colombia's capital
C.has been blocked by Mudslides since May
D.won't be unblocked by workers until May
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Mudslides (泥石流) since May have blocked the main highway, the Vaal Llano, which connects the city to Bogota, Colombia's capital.”可知,自从5月以来,泥石流封锁了主要公路干线 the Vaal Llano。故选C。
13.What does the underlined word “scarce”in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Available. B.Inadequate.
C.Organic. D.Affordable.
解析:选B 词义猜测题。根据第二段画线词后一句“Shoppers hunt through produce bins to find the few tomatoes and carrots that have not rotted.”可知,人们在农产品的箱子里寻找,只找到少数还未腐烂的西红柿和胡萝卜,说明公路被封的后果是:农产品数量严重不足、缺乏。所以scarce为“缺乏的;不足的”之意。 故选B。
14.Why is Colombia said to be a road-builder's nightmare
A.It's surrounded by mountains of different heights in the south.
B.The continuous rain makes the construction of roads difficult.
C.The government lacks money to build and repair roads.
D.Car accidents are more likely to take place in Colombia.
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Colombia is a road-builder's nightmare.The Andes (安第斯山脉) separate into three ranges at the southern border.The mountains can climb to 4,000 metres from sea level in less than 100km.”可知,哥伦比亚是修路者的“噩梦”的原因是:安第斯山脉位于它的南部边境分成三个部分,这些山脉在不到 100 公里的范围内落差极大,可以从海平面上升到 4 000 米,即被不同高度的山包围着。故选A。
15.According to the author, what's the best solution to los llanos's isolation
A.Providing more flights between Bogotaand Villavicencio.
B.Cancelling passenger fees on flights between the cities.
C.Charging less money for using the two alternative roads.
D.Constructing a proper road that can survive the situation.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“But what the plains need most is a road that can cope with Colombia's dangerous, rain-soaked topography (地形).”可知,目前解决问题最需要的是建造一条能够适应哥伦比亚危险和多雨的地形特征的公路,故选D。

Stay indoors.Do not move outside.__17__ Going outside is when people get injured from things falling off the building or other buildings.
__18__ Drop before the earthquake drops you.Use the “Drop, Cover and Hold” method — drop onto the ground, take cover under a strong and sturdy object and cover your head with your hands and arms.Hold onto whatever you might be underneath, because if it starts to move, you'll want to make sure that you're moving with it.
Get under something heavy. __19__ If possible, get under something heavy like a desk or table.Cover your head.Get down low and make sure that you are protected from things that might be falling in your home.
Find other supports if you cannot shelter under something.If you're not able to get under a table or other forms of protection, get next to an interior wall.Make yourself as small as possible.Cover your head and protect yourself while the shaking is going on.
Stay in bed if you are there already.If an earthquake starts while you are in bed, the best thing is to stay there.Cover your head and neck with your pillow and ride out the shaking. __20__ It has been reported that people who get out of bed during an earthquake are more likely to be injured as they may step on broken glass.
A.Drop onto the ground.
B.Find a heavy desk quickly.
C.Earthquakes lead to many disasters.

A boulder(巨石),as big as a house.That's how the guidebook described Giant Rock.Dad said it arrived here millions of years ago.I was finally going to see it, in snowshoes, with my two older cousins, my dad, and my uncle Don.I'd been snowshoeing before, and I liked the adventure of hiking through deep snow.
At the parking area, after putting on our snowshoes, we studied the map.Due to the geographical location, electrical devices are inaccessible here.The map is our only guide.“We start here,” Dad said,“ on the red trail (小路).Then we turn left onto the purple road.That's where Giant Rock is.” “Remember to stick together and don't wander off, guys,” Uncle Don said.
The trail ran uphill alongside a stone wall.It was easy to follow because red markers were nailed to the trees and the snow had been packed down by other hikers.At the top of the hill, we turned onto the purple trail.We settled into a pattern,with Dad and everyone else in front and me in the back,crunching (嘎吱嘎吱地踩) through the snow.I saw lots of animal tracks — mostly deer, squirrel, and rabbit prints.As the trail wound down, my cousin Andrew said what I'd been thinking :“Will we ever reach Giant Rock?” My cousin Aiden smiled and turned to me, “Luke, do you think your dad invented this idea just to get us away from the TV for a while?” I laughed.“You never know.”
Finally, we climbed a hill and saw the massive boulder sitting alone in the forest.It really is as big as a house! My cousins and I high-fived each other and jogged until we stood at the base, breathless.Standing in the boulders broad shadow, I noticed the sun had sunk lower.“Let's head back,” Dad said after a few minutes.“I here will be several crossroads on the way back.Guys, keep up with the team.”Soon we were crunch-crunch-crunching our way home.I was a little behind the group when we approached a crossroads.And I noticed a set of animal tracks I didn't recognize, so I followed them for a closer look.

Paragraph 1:
I looked up when, I suddenly realized how quiet it had gotten.“Where is everyone?” I shouted.Nothing.They couldn't have gone far.I'll catch up if I hurry.After a short walk, I came to the crossroads where I could turn left or go straight, but both trails had red markers.I turned to the left which looked familiar.As I strode, it got quieter and quieter.I worried I wandered off.Soon it might be too dark to tell what color the markers were.I had no flashlight.No phone.What if I couldn't find my way back
Paragraph 2:
As going worriedly, I heard voices,someone calling far away.Then I noticed the stone wall, the trail running alongside it.This had to be right.I rushed downhill with big steps.Then, the best sight ever: the parking area — and my family! I shouted as I ran toward them.“Luke Are you OK?” The voice of Dad was urgent.He shined a flashlight in my direction.I'd only been lost for minutes, but it had felt like forever.Now all I wanted was a bear hug from Dad and to make tracks for home.2 / 16

Named after Camp Creek Road, its place of origin, the fire started on November 8, 2018 and killed at least 71 people.More than 1,000 people are reported to be missing, although officials say that number could increase.
The fire has been heavily sweeping the Sierra Nevada forest since last Friday, according to the California firefighting office, Calfire.1,500 firefighters were sent to the affected area, but difficult conditions have prevented their activities and access to the area.
The fire has had huge fuel (燃料) as a result of wood from dead trees — 27 million died last year after years of dry weather — plus leaves and grass dried by heat.
Evacuations (疏散) were ordered in several camps and in other areas.Calfire asked people to get ready to escape, considering high temperatures for the next few days.
The fire forced the shutdown of a highway and one of the entrances to Yosemite National Park.Meanwhile, scores of people have become sick and the air in northern California has been listed the world's worst.
Heavy rain is coming next week that could reduce the flames but also bring floods on hillsides.
According to experts, the main causes of the wildfires are the weather, climate change and population change.
4.Where did the fire happen at the beginning
A.Calfire.
B.Sierra Nevada.
C.Camp Creek Road.
D.Yosemite National Park.
5.What made the fire continue
A.Climate change.
B.Firefighters' action.
C.People's evacuation.
D.Dry wood in the forest.
6.What result has the fire caused
A.Floods happened there.
B.27 million trees were dead.
C.The Yosemite National Park was closed.
D.The air became worse in northern California.
7.What's the text mainly about
A.The main causes of the fire.
B.A forest fire in California.
C.The measures to stop the fire.
D.The influences on people's life.

Scientists know where earthquakes are likely to take place.But it is difficult for them to predict how strong an earthquake will be.Now, American researchers have found it possible to predict the strength of future quakes.
The earth's crust — the outermost surface — is made up of large plates.These plates cover the earth.They move slowly, sometimes sliding under one another and causing the earthquakes.
Timothy H.Dixon is a geologist (地质学家) in the University of South Florida, who studies rocks and soil to understand the earth.He and other scientists are using global positioning system, or GPS, to measure what he calls “slow-slip” events.
Timothy Dixon says that while people can't feel a building breaking off,sometimes deadly earthquakes will happen.The big Japan earthquake in 2011 and the Sumatra earthquake and tsunami in 2004 are the kind, and they are the real killers.So what we think these slow-slip events are telling us is that they're letting off steam in areas where there is a break.And if they let off enough steam, the areas won't crack.“The more of the areas that break,” he says,“the more powerful the earthquake is.”
The scientists set up a number of GPS receivers 15 years ago in Costa Rica to measure the “slow-slip” events,which take place only every year or two.The last one was three months before an earthquake in 2012.
You know an earthquake is more or less inevitable.People always want to know when an earthquake is going to happen.This technology cannot predict that.But Timothy Dixon says even if you don't know exactly when it's going to happen, since you know it's going to happen, and you know how big it's going to be, you can prepare accordingly.
8.According to the passage,what can scientists predict about earthquakes at present
A.When an earthquake will happen.
B.Where an earthquake may happen.
C.How strong an earthquake will be.
D.What kind of the earthquake will be.
9.What does the underlined word “inevitable” in the last paragraph mean
A.Unavoidable. B.Unpredictable.
C.Powerful. D.Terrible.
10.From Timothy Dixon's words, what can we know
A.We can't predict when an earthquake will happen forever.
B.His new findings will prevent earthquakes happening.
C.His new findings will help people reduce damage caused by earthquake.
D.His new findings have been used in researching earthquakes.
11.What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage
A.To tell us the reason why an earthquake can happen.
B.To tell us that the strength of an earthquake can be predicted in the future.
C.To tell us what Timothy H.Dixon is doing in his spare time.
D.To tell us the advantage of knowing the strength of future earthquakes.

Villavicencio, a shabby city of half a million people, considers itself the city of half a gateway to los llanos, Colombia's eastern plains.Now and for the next few months few people will be passing through it.Mudslides (泥石流) since May have blocked the main highway, the Vaal Llano, which connects the city to Bogota, Colombia's capital.More rocks and mud threaten workers trying to unblock the road, along which two-thirds of domestically produced goods are transported.Colombia's government says this could take up to three months.
Residents of Villavicencio and the surrounding plains are beginning to feel the consequences.Potatoes, garlic and eggs have become scarce in grocery stores.Shoppers hunt through produce bins to find the few tomatoes and carrots that have not rotted.More than 90% of hotel reservations in the plain's region have been cancelled.
Colombia is a road-builder's nightmare.The Andes (安第斯山脉) separate into three ranges at the southern border.The mountains can climb to 4,000 metres from sea level in less than 100km.Colombia gets more rain than any other country in the world, which makes it harder to keep the road in good condition.Short of cash, the government has given private firms special rights to build roads.Vaal Llano, among the earliest projects built in this way, are likely to cause accidents.
To relieve los llanos's isolation (隔离), Satena, a state-owned airline, and EasyFly have announced more flights between Bogota and Villavicencio.The government has currently stopped passenger fees on flights between the cities.Goods can get through on two smaller alternative roads and money paid to use the two roads will be halved.But what the plains need most is a road that can cope with Colombia's dangerous, rain-soaked topography (地形).That goes for much of the rest of the country.
12.We can learn from the text that the highway the Vaal Llano ________.
A.is considered half a gateway to los llanos
B.connects los llanos and Colombia's capital
C.has been blocked by Mudslides since May
D.won't be unblocked by workers until May
13.What does the underlined word “scarce”in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Available. B.Inadequate.
C.Organic. D.Affordable.
14.Why is Colombia said to be a road-builder's nightmare
A.It's surrounded by mountains of different heights in the south.
B.The continuous rain makes the construction of roads difficult.
C.The government lacks money to build and repair roads.
D.Car accidents are more likely to take place in Colombia.
15.According to the author, what's the best solution to los llanos's isolation
A.Providing more flights between Bogotaand Villavicencio.
B.Cancelling passenger fees on flights between the cities.
C.Charging less money for using the two alternative roads.
D.Constructing a proper road that can survive the situation.
