Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
On 14 August 2021， Haiti was hit by a 7.2 magnitude earthquake.The quake destroyed thousands of buildings， injured over 5，700 people， and left at least 1，297 others dead.Haiti has declared a state of emergency.
The earthquake struck near the town of Petit Trou de Nippes， in the western part of the country.That’s roughly 125 kilometers west of the capital， Port-au-Prince.The earthquake did serious damage in two nearby cities， Les Cayes and Jeremie， with Les Cayes hit the hardest.Homes， schools， churches， and offices were seriously damaged.
The number of injured people was so high that local hospitals have been unable to keep up.A number of medical workers at the general hospital in Les Cayes were themselves trapped in a building.Across the area， people were searching through the rubble （废墟） for survivors.But the earthquake also caused landslides （塌方）， making the job even more difficult.There have been many aftershocks — smaller quakes which follow the main earthquake.With many buildings damaged by the earthquake， it’s not certain whether the buildings still standing in the area are safe.Many people are choosing to sleep outside rather than taking the risk of sleeping in a building.
Haiti has still not fully returned to normal from a 7.0 magnitude earthquake which destroyed much of Port-au-Prince and killed over 200，000 people in 2010.The country suffered again in 2016， when it was stricken by Hurricane Matthew， which caused huge damage in Haiti.Storm Grace is expected to reach Haiti on Monday， bringing heavy rainfall with it.
Several countries have offered to help Haiti.The government says the country won’t officially ask for outside help until it is clear how much damage there is in all.But Haiti is not a rich country， and the government may not have the money for major efforts to rebuild the damaged areas.
1.Which was worst affected by 2021’s earthquake？ （ ）
A.Port-au-Prince.
B.Jeremie.
C.Les Cayes.
D.Petit Trou de Nippes.

Standing on the ruins after the fire where his house had been， Peter Ruprecht admitted that he was not sure how or when to rebuild it.He was still shocked by what Australia’s increasingly changeable climate had already delivered： first a drought， then a destructive bush fire， and then a foot of rain from a storm.
“It’s unstoppable，” said Mr Ruprecht， a former dairy farmer.“We speak about the warmth of Mother Nature， but nature can also be vicious， wild and unforgiving.”
Australia’s hellish （极不愉快的） fire season has eased， but its people are facing more than a single disaster.With floods destroying homes not far from where fires recently spread， they are facing a cycle of what scientists call “compound extremes”： one climate disaster strengthens the next.
Higher temperatures do more than just dry out the land.They also heat up the atmosphere， which means clouds hold more moisture （水汽） for longer periods of time.So droughts get worse， giving way to fires， then to heavy rains that the land is too dry to absorb.
Many Australians in disaster zones complain that their government， after ignoring climate change for years， has not yet worked out recovery plans that are clear and that take future risks into account.
At the same time， the economic costs of a changing climate are rising quickly.Philip Lowe， governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia， warned recently that Australia was already paying a price， and that in effect it would only go up.
5.Why is Peter Ruprecht mentioned in the beginning？（ ）
A.To arouse readers’ pity.
B.To introduce the topic.
C.To stress the problem.
D.To call on readers to help.
6.Which word can replace the underlined word “vicious” in Paragraph 2？（ ）
A.empty B.kind
C.responsible D.violent
7.What is the main cause of “compound extremes” in Australia？（ ）
A.The government’s inaction.
B.Higher temperatures.
C.The lack of money.
D.No recovery plans.
8.In which section of the newspaper can we read this passage？（ ）
A.Food. B.Travel.
C.Climate. D.Agriculture.
C
Fishing trips to Canada are a tradition for Jeffrey Hardy and his three friends from America.This summer in 2023， the forest air polluted with wildfire smoke forced the men to give up their mid-June fishing plan.Canada’s wildfire season put its tourism industry at a crucial time.
Except some days of poor air quality， major Canadian cities remain unaffected by wildfires.The fires are in the country’s northern areas that have drawn travelers interested in outdoor experiences in years past.
In a recent report by Destination Canada， a marketing organization， half of the total spent by international visitors is in Vancouver， Toronto and Montreal.But other Canadian destinations attractive to visitors have been affected by the wildfires.
In preparation for increasing visitor sizes and ongoing wildfires， some businesses are thinking about changing their operations， which see outdoor recreation （娱乐） as a tourism opportunity.A nonprofit travel agency is considering creating a questionnaire （调查问卷） for customers to show when they would cancel a booking because of road closes from the wildfires， poor air quality and a lack of visibility.
Tourism in British Columbia contributes greatly to its economy.The province has various recreational offerings， from the major ski destinations to hiking along the coast.Blackcomb， a helicopter tour company， has canceled its sightseeing offerings， using most of its helicopters on the firefighting effort until at least early August.“It’s the question of flying our customers around on sightseeing tours or putting out fires within 10 kilometers of our bases and the communities that we live in，” said Jordy Norris， the company’s tourism director.“We made it clear to both our staff and our customers that we have a duty to protect the backyard.”
Darrin Rigo， a photographer， recently saw a photo of a beautiful waterfall engulfed in fire on a media page.“I’m sure that’s not going to last long， and everything will turn to normal，” he said.
9.Which part of Canada is most affected by the wildfire？（ ）
A.Canada’s central part.
B.The northern areas.
C.Major Canadian cities.
D.Places with few visitors.
10.What can be inferred about Jordy Norris？（ ）
A.He is sad about his company’s loss from the fire.
B.He is confident about the use of the questionnaire.
C.He is glad to join in the fight against the wildfire.
D.He is stressed about the fire’s effect on his company.
11.What does the underlined word “engulfed” in the last paragraph mean？（ ）
A.Covered. B.Donated
C.Rescued. D.Protected.
12.Which of the following can be the best title for the text？（ ）
A.Tourism Suffers Great Loss in the Wildfire
B.All of Canada Have Acted to Beat Wildfire
C.Most of Canada Is Affected by the Wildfire
D.Wildfire Won’t Stop Canada’s Tourism Development

Ⅰ.
语篇解读：本文是一篇报道。文章主要介绍了海地2010年和2021年发生地震的情况以及2016年遭受飓风袭击的情况。
1.C 细节理解题。根据第二段倒数第二句可知，Les Cayes受灾最严重。
2.B 词义猜测题。根据第三段中的Across the area， people were searching through the rubble （废墟） for survivors.可知，人们正搜查废墟寻找幸存者。结合画线词所在句可知，地震也造成了山体滑坡，这使得搜寻幸存者更加困难。所以画线词指的是“搜寻幸存者”。
3.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句可推知，海地对寻求外援持谨慎的态度。
4.C 推理判断题。根据全文可知，本文主要介绍了海地2010年和2021年发生地震的情况以及2016年遭受飓风袭击的情况。由此可推知，文章是一篇报道，可能来自报纸。
语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚发生的一系列极端气候灾害，包括它们的成因、给人们带来的影响、经济成本等。
5.B 推理判断题。根据第一段可知，Peter Ruprecht的房子被烧成废墟反映出澳大利亚多变的气候给人们造成了巨大的损失并引发了一系列气候灾难：干旱、毁灭性的丛林大火和暴风雨造成的一英尺的雨水。所以推知，提及Peter Ruprecht是为了引出话题：澳大利亚的气候灾难。
6.D 词义猜测题。根据画线词前的but可知，画线词所在分句与前面的分句之间是转折关系，根据but前面的warmth和画线词后面的wild and unforgiving可知，vicious应与wild（狂暴的）和unforgiving（难对付的）意思相近，与warmth（温暖）意思相反，故选D项“暴力的”。
7.B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的one climate disaster strengthens the next可知，compound extremes指的是一种气候灾害加剧另一种；第四段阐述了这个过程，即温度升高→大气升温→云层锁水量更大、时间更长→加剧土地干燥→火灾→土地无法吸收的大雨，因此是温度升高导致了compound extremes。
8.C 文章出处题。文章第一、二段引出话题：澳大利亚的气候灾难，接下来的段落描述了气候灾难的危害、成因以及造成的经济成本等，所以本文话题与气候相关。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。加拿大的山林大火使旅游业受到很大的影响，但是人们依然对加拿大旅游业的发展充满信心。
9.B 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，这次山火主要影响的是加拿大的北部地区。
10.C 推理判断题。根据第五段中Jordy Norris说的话可推知，Jordy Norris为自己的公司能够参加灭火行动感到高兴。
11.A 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句可知，照片里这个美丽的瀑布被野火笼罩着。由此可知，画线词的含义是“笼罩，覆盖”。
12.D 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文讲述了一场山火对加拿大旅游业的影响，谈到这场火灾的分布及其对旅游业的影响，以及旅游业的从业人员对未来旅游业发展的乐观态度。故D项为文章最佳标题。
Ⅱ.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在海啸中生存的方法。
13.E 上文说明你应该知道应对海啸的方法，下文介绍了应对海啸的四种方法。E项（以下是一些应对海啸并在海啸中幸存下来的方法）符合语境。
14.B 上文说明当海啸来临时，你应该采用步行的方式。B项（快速走或跑向安全地带）符合语境。与下文“这有助于你避免在危险的地方被困在车里”为顺承关系。
15.D 下文说明被困时，要爬到高的地方或者建筑物的顶部。D项（如果你被困了，就爬到建筑物的顶部）能够概括本段内容，可作本段小标题。
16.F 上文说明如果你已经在水里，应该抓住一些漂浮的东西。F项（寻找像树、门或救生筏这样坚固的东西）承接上文，符合语境，举例说明可以抓住的漂浮的东西有什么。
17.C 下文说明海啸持续的时长，你应该在此期间远离海岸，待在高地以确保安全。C项（在你的安全地点至少待8个小时）能够概括本段内容，可作本段小标题。

I’m delighted to receive your letter， in which you expressed eagerness for some information about the Earthquake Prevention and Disaster Reduction Campaign held in our school.I’m glad to share it with you.
As scheduled， the activity took place last Friday.First， all the teachers and students attended a lecture to get a good knowledge of earthquake.During the lecture， the lecturer impressed on us the damage an earthquake can cause and how to protect ourselves when an earthquake happens through videos and pictures.After that， an earthquake prevention drill was conducted.
I’ve learned a lot from this activity.It is of great significance for us to master some self-help measures.
Yours，

风暴过后现繁星
说来也怪，我对飓风本身的印象并不深。一切都发生得太快了。当时我正坐在自己房间里，猫咪斯玛蒂趴在我腿上，突然屋顶就飞走了。霎时间，屋顶变成了天空。我吓呆了。
妈妈大喊着让我们快跑，但已经来不及了。暴雨迅速倾盆而下，瞬间就将道路淹没成了河流。我们无处可去了。
一开始我还庆幸我们能待在家里，但很快情况就糟糕起来。没了屋顶，待在屋内是十分危险的。到处都是水，可我们一滴也不能喝，否则就会染上重病。我们只能喝直升机送来的饮用水，但总是不够喝。当时是八月，天气非常非常热，到处都散发着难闻的气味！我只能整天看着街上来来往往的船只，留意寻找斯玛蒂的身影。风暴袭来的那一刻它就失踪了。
我们住在露天的环境里，成了蚊子的一日三餐。不过妈妈说不管发生什么，我们都应该尽量看到事情好的一面。然而保持乐观却不那么容易。我们的家毁了，家里的一切也都没了，斯玛蒂也不见了。我们只剩下身上的衣服了。不过就像妈妈一直提醒我们的那样，好在全家人都在一起而且平安无事。妈妈的话让我们心情好些了。我还记得那时我们躺在午夜的苍穹之下，仰望星空。因为没有灯光，我们能看到北斗七星、小北斗七星和银河。太奇妙了！尽管我们损失惨重，但这样的时刻点燃了我们对未来的希望。
虽然几天后我们就获救了，但却觉得像是过了好几个月。我们被带到了一个很远的县的一座小镇上。万幸的是，斯玛蒂及时回了家。我们都很高兴能带上它，不过那时我们都没料到这一去就很久都回不来。
现在，事情已经过去了一年，我也重新回到了位于新奥尔良的家。有的人家仍然流落在外，但也有许多人已经回来了。虽然我们周围的一切都提醒着我们这里曾发生的灾难，但大家都在为重建家园和生活而一同努力着。现在我们又能仰望新奥尔良的星空了，星空的美鼓舞着我们，让我们有信心继续前行。

【参考译文】
风暴过后现繁星
说来也怪，我对飓风本身的印象并不深。一切都发生得太快了。
当时我正坐在自己房间里，猫咪斯玛蒂趴在我腿上，突然屋顶就飞走
了。霎时间，屋顶变成了天空。我吓呆了。
妈妈大喊着让我们快跑，但已经来不及了。暴雨迅速倾盆而下，
瞬间就将道路淹没成了河流。我们无处可去了。
一开始我还庆幸我们能待在家里，但很快情况就糟糕起来。没了
屋顶，待在屋内是十分危险的。到处都是水，可我们一滴也不能喝，
否则就会染上重病。我们只能喝直升机送来的饮用水，但总是不够
喝。当时是八月，天气非常非常热，到处都散发着难闻的气味！我只
能整天看着街上来来往往的船只，留意寻找斯玛蒂的身影。风暴袭来
的那一刻它就失踪了。
我们住在露天的环境里，成了蚊子的一日三餐。不过妈妈说不管
发生什么，我们都应该尽量看到事情好的一面。然而保持乐观却不那
么容易。我们的家毁了，家里的一切也都没了，斯玛蒂也不见了。我
们只剩下身上的衣服了。不过就像妈妈一直提醒我们的那样，好在全
家人都在一起而且平安无事。妈妈的话让我们心情好些了。我还记得
那时我们躺在午夜的苍穹之下，仰望星空。因为没有灯光，我们能看
到北斗七星、小北斗七星和银河。太奇妙了！尽管我们损失惨重，但
这样的时刻点燃了我们对未来的希望。
虽然几天后我们就获救了，但却觉得像是过了好几个月。我
们被带到了一个很远的县的一座小镇上。万幸的是，斯玛蒂及时
回了家。我们都很高兴能带上它，不过那时我们都没料到这一去
就很久都回不来。
现在，事情已经过去了一年，我也重新回到了位于新奥尔良的
家。有的人家仍然流落在外，但也有许多人已经回来了。虽然我们周
围的一切都提醒着我们这里曾发生的灾难，但大家都在为重建家园和
生活而一同努力着。现在我们又能仰望新奥尔良的星空了，星空的美
鼓舞着我们，让我们有信心继续前行。

On 14 August 2021， Haiti was hit by a 7.2 magnitude
earthquake.The quake destroyed thousands of buildings， injured over
5，700 people， and left at least 1，297 others dead.Haiti has declared a
state of emergency.
The earthquake struck near the town of Petit Trou de Nippes， in the
western part of the country.That’s roughly 125 kilometers west of the
capital， Port-au-Prince.The earthquake did serious damage in two nearby
cities， Les Cayes and Jeremie， with Les Cayes hit the hardest.Homes，
schools， churches， and offices were seriously damaged.
The number of injured people was so high that local hospitals have
been unable to keep up.A number of medical workers at the general
hospital in Les Cayes were themselves trapped in a building.Across the
area， people were searching through the rubble （废墟） for
survivors.But the earthquake also caused landslides （塌方）， making
the job even more difficult.There have been many aftershocks — smaller
quakes which follow the main earthquake.With many buildings damaged
by the earthquake， it’s not certain whether the buildings still standing in
the area are safe.Many people are choosing to sleep outside rather than
taking the risk of sleeping in a building.
Haiti has still not fully returned to normal from a 7.0 magnitude
earthquake which destroyed much of Port-au-Prince and killed over 200，
000 people in 2010.The country suffered again in 2016， when it was
stricken by Hurricane Matthew， which caused huge damage in
Haiti.Storm Grace is expected to reach Haiti on Monday， bringing heavy
rainfall with it.
Several countries have offered to help Haiti.The government says the
country won’t officially ask for outside help until it is clear how much
damage there is in all.But Haiti is not a rich country， and the government
may not have the money for major efforts to rebuild the damaged areas.

语篇解读：本文是一篇报道。文章主要介绍了海地2010年和2021年
发生地震的情况以及2016年遭受飓风袭击的情况。
1. Which was worst affected by 2021’s earthquake？ （ ）
A. Port-au-Prince. B. Jeremie.
C. Les Cayes. D. Petit Trou de Nippes.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段倒数第二句可知，Les Cayes受
灾最严重。
2. What does the underlined part “the job” in Paragraph 3 mean？
（ ）
A. Dealing with landslides.
B. Searching for survivors.
C. Observing aftershocks.
D. Doing building safety-checks.
解析： 词义猜测题。根据第三段中的Across the area， people
were searching through the rubble （废墟） for survivors.可知，人们
正搜查废墟寻找幸存者。结合画线词所在句可知，地震也造成了山
体滑坡，这使得搜寻幸存者更加困难。所以画线词指的是“搜寻幸
存者”。
3. What is Haiti’s attitude to seeking foreign aid？ （ ）
A. Doubtful. B. Favored.
C. Cautious. D. Disapproving.
解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句可推知，海地对寻求
外援持谨慎的态度。
4. Where is the article probably taken from？ （ ）
A. A novel. B. A history book.
C. A newspaper. D. A brochure.
解析： 推理判断题。根据全文可知，本文主要介绍了海地2010

Standing on the ruins after the fire where his house had been， Peter
Ruprecht admitted that he was not sure how or when to rebuild it.He was
still shocked by what Australia’s increasingly changeable climate had
already delivered： first a drought， then a destructive bush fire， and
then a foot of rain from a storm.
“It’s unstoppable，” said Mr Ruprecht， a former dairy
farmer.“We speak about the warmth of Mother Nature， but nature can
also be vicious， wild and unforgiving.”
Australia’s hellish （极不愉快的） fire season has eased， but its
people are facing more than a single disaster.With floods destroying
homes not far from where fires recently spread， they are facing a cycle of
what scientists call “compound extremes”： one climate disaster
strengthens the next.
Higher temperatures do more than just dry out the land.They also
heat up the atmosphere， which means clouds hold more moisture （水
汽） for longer periods of time.So droughts get worse， giving way to
fires， then to heavy rains that the land is too dry to absorb.
Many Australians in disaster zones complain that their government，
after ignoring climate change for years， has not yet worked out recovery
plans that are clear and that take future risks into account.
At the same time， the economic costs of a changing climate are
rising quickly.Philip Lowe， governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia，
warned recently that Australia was already paying a price， and that in
effect it would only go up.
语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚发生的
一系列极端气候灾害，包括它们的成因、给人们带来的影响、经济
成本等。
5. Why is Peter Ruprecht mentioned in the beginning？（ ）
A. To arouse readers’ pity.
B. To introduce the topic.
C. To stress the problem.
D. To call on readers to help.
语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚发生的
一系列极端气候灾害，包括它们的成因、给人们带来的影响、经济
成本等。
解析： 推理判断题。根据第一段可知，Peter Ruprecht的房子被
烧成废墟反映出澳大利亚多变的气候给人们造成了巨大的损失并引
发了一系列气候灾难：干旱、毁灭性的丛林大火和暴风雨造成的一
英尺的雨水。所以推知，提及Peter Ruprecht是为了引出话题：澳大
利亚的气候灾难。
6. Which word can replace the underlined word “vicious” in Paragraph
2？（ ）
A. empty B. kind
C. responsible D. violent
解析： 词义猜测题。根据画线词前的but可知，画线词所在分句
与前面的分句之间是转折关系，根据but前面的warmth和画线词后
面的wild and unforgiving可知，vicious应与wild（狂暴的）和
unforgiving（难对付的）意思相近，与warmth（温暖）意思相反，
故选D项“暴力的”。
7. What is the main cause of “compound extremes” in Australia？
（ ）
A. The government’s inaction.
B. Higher temperatures.
C. The lack of money.
D. No recovery plans.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中的one climate disaster
strengthens the next可知，compound extremes指的是一种气候灾害
加剧另一种；第四段阐述了这个过程，即温度升高→大气升温→云
层锁水量更大、时间更长→加剧土地干燥→火灾→土地无法吸收的
大雨，因此是温度升高导致了compound extremes。
8. In which section of the newspaper can we read this passage？（ ）
A. Food. B. Travel.
C. Climate. D. Agriculture.
解析： 文章出处题。文章第一、二段引出话题：澳大利亚的气
候灾难，接下来的段落描述了气候灾难的危害、成因以及造成的经
济成本等，所以本文话题与气候相关。

Fishing trips to Canada are a tradition for Jeffrey Hardy and his three
friends from America.This summer in 2023， the forest air polluted with
wildfire smoke forced the men to give up their mid-June fishing
plan.Canada’s wildfire season put its tourism industry at a crucial time.
Except some days of poor air quality， major Canadian cities remain
unaffected by wildfires.The fires are in the country’s northern areas that
have drawn travelers interested in outdoor experiences in years past.
In a recent report by Destination Canada， a marketing
organization， half of the total spent by international visitors is in
Vancouver， Toronto and Montreal.But other Canadian destinations
attractive to visitors have been affected by the wildfires.
In preparation for increasing visitor sizes and ongoing wildfires，
some businesses are thinking about changing their operations， which see
outdoor recreation （娱乐） as a tourism opportunity.A nonprofit travel
agency is considering creating a questionnaire （调查问卷） for
customers to show when they would cancel a booking because of road
closes from the wildfires， poor air quality and a lack of visibility.
Tourism in British Columbia contributes greatly to its economy.The
province has various recreational offerings， from the major ski
destinations to hiking along the coast.Blackcomb， a helicopter tour
company， has canceled its sightseeing offerings， using most of its
helicopters on the firefighting effort until at least early August.“It’s the
question of flying our customers around on sightseeing tours or putting out
fires within 10 kilometers of our bases and the communities that we live
in，” said Jordy Norris， the company’s tourism director.“We made
it clear to both our staff and our customers that we have a duty to protect
the backyard.”
Darrin Rigo， a photographer， recently saw a photo of a beautiful
waterfall engulfed in fire on a media page.“I’m sure that’s not going
to last long， and everything will turn to normal，” he said.

9. Which part of Canada is most affected by the wildfire？（ ）
A. Canada’s central part.
B. The northern areas.
C. Major Canadian cities.
D. Places with few visitors.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，这次山火主要影
响的是加拿大的北部地区。
10. What can be inferred about Jordy Norris？（ ）
A. He is sad about his company’s loss from the fire.
B. He is confident about the use of the questionnaire.
C. He is glad to join in the fight against the wildfire.
D. He is stressed about the fire’s effect on his company.
解析： 推理判断题。根据第五段中Jordy Norris说的话可推
知，Jordy Norris为自己的公司能够参加灭火行动感到高兴。
11. What does the underlined word “engulfed” in the last paragraph
mean？（ ）
A. Covered. B. Donated
C. Rescued. D. Protected.
解析： 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句可知，照片里这个美
丽的瀑布被野火笼罩着。由此可知，画线词的含义是“笼罩，覆
盖”。
12. Which of the following can be the best title for the text？（ ）
A. Tourism Suffers Great Loss in the Wildfire
B. All of Canada Have Acted to Beat Wildfire
C. Most of Canada Is Affected by the Wildfire
D. Wildfire Won’t Stop Canada’s Tourism Development
解析： 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文讲述了一场山火对
加拿大旅游业的影响，谈到这场火灾的分布及其对旅游业的影
响，以及旅游业的从业人员对未来旅游业发展的乐观态度。故D
项为文章最佳标题。

参考范文：
Dear John，
I’m delighted to receive your letter， in which you expressed
eagerness for some information about the Earthquake Prevention and
Disaster Reduction Campaign held in our school.I’m glad to share it with
you.
As scheduled， the activity took place last Friday.First， all the
teachers and students attended a lecture to get a good knowledge of
earthquake.During the lecture， the lecturer impressed on us the damage
an earthquake can cause and how to protect ourselves when an earthquake
happens through videos and pictures.After that， an earthquake
prevention drill was conducted.
I’ve learned a lot from this activity.It is of great significance for us
to master some self-help measures.
Yours，
Li Hua
