Thousands of people are killed every year in natural disasters.Search-and-rescue teams often rely on technology to conduct rescue missions and help those who have been affected.Over the years,online tools and applications have been developed to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of disaster aid and relief.Here are some widely used ones.
Micromappers
Micromappers was launched in 2013 and used in the 2015 Nepal earthquake,Typhoon Hayian in 2013 and several other disasters.The application creates a map from social media relief updates and sends it to aid organizations so that they get real-time information about disaster-stricken areas.It helps aid agencies to effectively plan rescue efforts before going into disaster zones.During the 2015 Nepal earthquake,Micromappers processed more than 60,000 images.
Google Finder
Google Finder is another new piece of technology which can help with disaster relief efforts.It was developed in 2010 in response to the Haiti earthquake.It is an open source web application,which is available in over 40 languages.The application allows users to post and search for the status of people affected by a disaster.During the 2015 Nepal earthquake,well over 7,500 records on the online tool were searched.
Red Cross Emergency
The Red Cross Emergency App has been incredibly helpful with disaster relief in the recent times.It gives survivors weather updates and safety tips.The Red Cross credits the application for saving several lives in the United States.
21.Why are the online tools and applications developed
A.To provide warning signs of disasters. B.To aid disaster rescue and relief work.
C.To create new methods of disaster relief. D.To analyze the causes of natural disasters.
22.What kind of information can be got from Micromappers
A.Real-time images. B.Geographical maps.
C.Effective rescue plans. D.Social media comments.
23.What do the first two applications have in common
A.They are free of charge. B.They come in multiple languages.

Suddenly Uncle Henry stood up.“There’s a cyclone coming,Em,” he called to his wife.“I’ll go to look after the stock.” Then he ran towards the sheds where the cows and horses were kept.
Aunt Em dropped her work and came to the door.One glance told her of the danger close at hand.“Quick,Dorothy!” she screamed.“Run for the cellar(地窖)!” Toto jumped out of Dorothy’s arms and hid under the bed,and the girl started to get him.Aunt Em,badly frightened,threw open the trap door in the floor and climbed down the ladder into the small,dark hole.Dorothy caught Toto at last and started to follow her aunt.When she was halfway across the room,there came a great roar from the wind,and the house shook so hard that she lost her footing and sat down suddenly upon the floor.
Then a strange thing happened.The house circled around two or three times and rose slowly through the air.Dorothy felt as if she were going up in a balloon.It was very dark,and the wind blew horribly around her,but Dorothy found she was riding quite easily.After the first few twists and turns,and one other time when the house tipped badly,she felt as if she were being rocked gently,like a baby in a cradle.Toto did not like it.He ran about the room,now here,now there,barking loudly;but Dorothy sat quite still on the floor and waited to see what would happen.
At last she crawled over the swinging floor to her bed,and lay down upon it;and Toto followed and lay down beside her.In spite of the swinging of the house and the crying of the wind,Dorothy soon closed her eyes and fell fast asleep.
24.What does the underlined word “cyclone” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A.Hurricane. B.Flood. C.Monster. D.Earthquake.
25.Why did Aunt Em go into the hole in the floor when the cyclone approached

C.To protect their fortune. D.To get tools to help Henry.
26.Which of the following is TRUE about Dorothy

C.She became a baby crying loudly. D.She remained undisturbed with Toto.
27.Which word can best describe Dorothy in the emergency
A.Frightened. B.Curious. C.Calm. D.Excited.
C
Winter can usually kill most wildfires.But in the far North,some forest fires just don’t die.They are thought of as “zombie(僵尸) fires”.
“Zombie fires” usually sleep underground in winter.Covered by snow,they smoke through the cold.Fueled by carbon-rich peat(泥炭) and soil in the North,most of these hidden fires spread slowly for less than 500 meters during the winter.When spring comes,the flames of the fires appear near sites that they have burned in winter,and they turn to burning fresh fuels around.This may happen well before the traditional fire season in the far North.
“Zombie fires” had been known mostly from firefighters’ stories.Few scientists studied them until details in some satellite images attracted one research team.Rebecca Scholten,a member of the team,studies earth systems at Vrije University Amsterdam in the Netherlands.Her team noticed an unusual thing.“New fires have been starting very close to the former years’ fires in recent years,and we wonder how often the fires might survive the winter,” Scholten explains.
These “zombie fires” are rarely seen before,according to a new study from Nature.But in recent years,they are becoming more common,the study warns.It is believed that the “zombie fires” are even on the road of being a threat.Forests in the far North are warming faster than the globe’s average.Scholten says,“We’re seeing more hot summers and more large fires and strong burning.That could set the stage for the fires to become a bigger problem,” she worries.And the region’s soils hold a lot of carbon—maybe twice as much as the earth’s atmosphere.More fires here could give off huge amounts of greenhouse gases.That would drive a cycle of more warming and even higher risk of fires.
28.What do we know about the “zombies fires” in the far North
A.They will completely die out in winter.
B.Their flames can only appear in spring.
C.Carbon-rich peat helps them burn slowly in winter.
D.They often happen after the traditional fire season.
29.What can we infer from Scholten’s words in paragraph 3
A.“Zombie fires” happen more frequently than before.
B.“Zombie fires” appear earlier than the years before.
C.“Zombie fires” appear in different shapes every year.
D.“Zombie fires” happen far from former years’ fires.
30.What may be a cause of being a threat for the “zombie fires”
A.More greenhouse gases are given off. B.The area’s soils are short of carbon.
C.The global warming is slowing down. D.The hot summers are less and less seen.
31.What can be the best title for the text
A.Will “zombie fires” disappear B.Pay attention to “zombie fires”!
C.Are “zombie fires” frightening D.“Zombie fires” are caused by humans!
D
In the hottest months of each year,many powerful storms are born in the Atlantic and Caribbean seas.Of these,only about half a dozen cause the strong,circling winds of 75 miles per hour or more that are named hurricanes,and several usually make their way to the coast.There they cause millions of dollars of damage,and most seriously,bring death to large numbers of people.
The great storms that hit the coast start as harmless circling disturbances (大气搅动) hundreds,even thousands,of miles out at sea.As they travel aimlessly over water warmed by the summer sun,they are carried westward by the trade winds.When conditions are just right,warm,wet air flows in at the bottom of such a disturbance,moves upward through it and comes out at the top.In this course,the wetness in this warm air produces rains,and with it the heat is changed into energy in the form of strong winds.As the heat increases,the young hurricane begins to swirl (旋转) in a counter-clockwise (逆时针) motion.
The average life of a hurricane is only about nine days but it contains almost more power than we can imagine.The hidden energy of the heat given off by a hurricane’s rainfall in a single day would satisfy the entire electrical needs of the US for more than six months.Water,not wind,is the main source of death and destruction in a hurricane.A typical hurricane brings 6- to 12-inch downpour resulting in sudden floods.Worst of all is the powerful movement of the sea,the mountains of water moving toward the low-pressure hurricane center.The water level rises as much as 15 feet above normal as it moves towards shore.
32.What is the most serious loss that hurricanes lead to
A.Strong winds. B.People’s death.
C.Heavy rainstorms. D.A large amount of money.
33.In which season does a hurricane usually occur
A.Spring. B.Summer. C.Autumn. D.Winter.
34.What does the underlined word “downpour” probably refer to
A.Heavy rainfall. B.Downward waves.
C.The pour of seawater. D.The movement of circling disturbances.
35.What is the passage mainly talking about
A.The motion of counter-clockwise swirling.
B.The process of changing strong winds into storms.
C.The main cause of a hurricane and its severe destruction.
D.The hidden energy shown through destructive hurricanes.

How did Hurricane Irma get its name Find out the surprising reasons why hurricanes are named and how their names are chosen.
Why Do We Name Hurricanes
Naming storms dates back hundreds of years.　36　
It makes it easier to keep track of multiple storms happening at the same time and giving them names connects better with people.There have been many years with three hurricanes out there at the same time.It’s rare,but not unheard of.
　37　
Tropical storms are named when their maximum sustained wind speed is greater than 39 miles per hour.They graduate to hurricanes when wind speeds are over 74 miles per hour.When this happens,the Switzerland-based World Meteorological Organization does naming,　38　 For instance,storms that originate in the Atlantic get one of 21 alphabetized(按字母顺序的) names.In 2017,we’ve already used Arlene,Bret,Cindy,Don,Emily,Franklin and Gert before arriving at Harvey and Irma.There are six such lists which repeat every seventh year.Should the Atlantic continue to roil this year,expect to see warnings for Jose,Katia,Lee,Maria,Nate,Ophelia,Philippe,Rina,Sean,Tammy,Vince,and Whitney.
　39　
When a storm is particularly destructive,its name is retired.Eighty-two storms have this identity.We will never again have an Andrew (1992),Fran (1996),Juan (2003),Katrina (2005),Irene (2011),Sandy (2012),Ingrid (2013),Erika (2015),Joaquin (2015),Matthew (2016),or Otto (2016).
And remember:A hurricane by any other name is just as destructive.　40　 those same storms are called “typhoons” in the western North Pacific,“cyclones” in the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea,“severe tropical cyclones” in the western South Pacific and southeast Indian Ocean.
A.The reasons are evident:
B.How Do We Name Hurricanes
C.What Is the Next Hurricane Name
D.Why Do Hurricane Names Get Retired
E.picking from fixed agreed upon lists.
F.Some hurricanes were named after boys’ names.
G.While the areas around the U.S.are visited by hurricanes,

I was suddenly awakened at about 4 a.m.by a strange experience which I did not understand at first.I was 　41　 for a few seconds,as though I was in a cradle.I heard 　42　 sounds in which I could identify the tinkling of pots,the rattling of windows,and certain deep rumbling noise 　43　 from the earth.After a few moments I realized,to my 　44　,that it was the earthquake.
Others too in my house and neighborhood must have 　45　 it at the same time or a little earlier,because we all jumped up from our beds in a second and 　46　 out of our houses.The quake of the earth had stopped;yet we stood in the open for an hour,extremely 　47　 about another quake.There was nip(寒冷) in the air that early morning,and the electric lights had 　48　.People stood in darkness,talking about the earthquake and praying that it might not be 　49　.
The quakes of the earth caused no damage in Mumbai.For several hours next morning we thought,with 　50　 to Nature,that the disaster had been 　51　 on the whole.But at about noon,bad news came that all the houses in parts of Latur had been 　52　 to the ground and hundreds of human lives 　53　.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When a tornado touched down in a small town nearby,many families were left completely ruined.Afterwards all the local newspapers carried many human-interest stories featuring some of the families who suffered the hardest.
One Sunday,a particular picture especially touched me.A young woman stood in front of an entirely shattered(破碎的) mobile home,a depressed expression on her face.A young boy,seven or eight years old,stood at her side,eyes downward.Clutching(紧握) at her skirt was a tiny girl who stared into the camera,eyes wide with confusion and fear.
The article that went with the picture gave the clothing sizes of each family member.With growing interest,I noticed that their sizes closely matched ours.This would be a good opportunity to teach my children to help those less fortunate than themselves.I stuck the picture of the young family on our refrigerator,explaining their difficulty to my seven-year-old twins,Brad and Brett,and to three-year-old Meghan.
“These poor people now have nothing,” I said.“We’ll share what we have with them.”I brought three large boxes down from the room upstairs and placed them on the living room floor.Meghan watched seriously,as the boys and I filled one of the boxes with canned goods and foods.
While I sorted through our clothes,I encouraged the boys to go through their toys and donate some of their less favorite things.Meghan watched quietly as the boys piled up old toys and games.
Meghan walked up with Lucy,her worn,much-loved rag doll hugged tightly to her chest.She came to the box that held the toys,pressed her round little face into Lucy’s flat,painted-on-face,gave her a final kiss,and then laid her gently on top of the other toys.
“Oh,Honey,” I said.“You don’t have to give Lucy.You love her so much.”
Meghan nodded seriously,eyes filled with held-back tears.“Lucy makes me happy,Mommy.Maybe she’ll make that other little girl happy,too.”
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The boys had watched,open-mouthed,as their baby sister placed her favorite doll in the box.







I looked at my children for a long moment.

第一节
Dear George,
I’m writing to invite you to attend a lecture about “How to survive an earthquake”,which will be held in our school hall next Monday.The relevant details are as follows.
To begin with,an earthquake video will be presented,making us know the horrible result of an earthquake.Then the specialist will give us some guidelines for surviving an earthquake,such as how to signal for help if you are trapped.Though we can’t stop earthquakes,the harm they bring us can be reduced if we do the right things.
Looking forward to your coming.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
The boys had watched,open-mouthed,as their baby sister placed her favorite doll in the box.Without a word,Brad rose and went to his room.He came back carrying one of his favorite action figures.He hesitated briefly,clutching the toy,then looked over at Meghan and placed it in the box next to Lucy.A slow smile spread across Brett’s face.Then he jumped up,eyes twinkling as he ran to fetch some of his prized Matchbox cars.Astonished,I realized that the boys had also recognized what little Meghan’s gesture meant.
I looked at my children for a long moment.Swallowing back tears,I pulled all three of them into my arms.Inspired by my little ones,I removed my old jacket from the box of clothes.I replaced it with the new hunter green jacket that I had found on sale last week.I hoped the young woman in the picture would love it as much as I did.It’s easy to give what we don’t want any more,but harder to let go of things we cherish.However,the true spirit of giving is to give with our heart.
