【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述一个名叫艾丽斯的女孩的家乡遭遇地震,她和其他幸存的人帮助灾后重建。这次经历也改变了她——她决定力所能及地去帮助他人并永远记得团体的力量。
1.B 细节理解题。根据第三段“Alice knew she had to get to higher ground. She headed for the nearest hill, joining a group of other people.”可知,艾丽斯在地震发生后不久跑到了附近的一个山上。故选B。
2.D 推理判断题。根据第二段“Alice, a young girl who was in her house when the earthquake struck, knew she had to act fast. She got her emergency kit, which included food, water, and a first-aid kit, and ran out of the house.”以及第三段“Alice knew she had to get to higher ground. She headed for the nearest hill, joining a group of other people.”可知,艾丽斯很可能曾经学过如何在地震中逃生。故选D。
3.A 推理判断题。根据第二段“Alice, a young girl who was in her house when the earthquake struck, knew she had to act fast. She got her emergency kit, which included food, water, and a first-aid kit, and ran out of the house.”可知,她是一个遇事冷静的人;根据第五段“Alice knew she had to help. She joined hands with other survivors and they began the rescue effort.”可知,她是一个乐于助人的人。所以艾丽斯是一个遇事冷静且乐于助人的人。故选A。
4.D 细节理解题。根据最后一段“She realized that life was uncertain, but that people could come together in times of difficulty. She determined to help others whenever she could and above all never to forget the power of community.”可知,她从这次经历中明白:团体(团结)在困难时期很重要。故选D。

【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一个经受住飓风考验的牧场——巴布科克牧场。
5.D 词义猜测题。根据前文“It was a deadly hurricane, attacking more than four million people, and causing serious flooding and at least 150 deaths.”可知,这场飓风造成了严重的破坏;由however可知,前后文是转折关系,因此推断画线词与survived意思相近,说明这个社区幸存下来,没有受到破坏。故选D。
6.B 细节理解题。根据第二段的“Its homes are built to go through severe weather without losing essential services like electricity, water, or the Internet.”可知,它的设计保证了飓风发生时电力的可用性。故选B。
7.C 段落大意题。根据第四段“Hurricane Ian served as a true test for the community. While the surrounding regions suffered, Babcock Ranch’s minimum damage and quick recovery showcased its effective design against natural disasters. Residents even opened their community centre, doubling as a storm shelter, to the victims from other hard-hit communities.”可知,本段讲述了巴布科克牧场经受住了这场飓风的考验,并帮助其他社区,因此推断本段主要讲述巴布科克牧场对自然灾害的抵抗力。故选C。
8.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Kitson’s vision for Babcock Ranch is not just about creating a sustainable and resilient (适应性强的) community but also about learning and improving. He hopes that the lessons learned from Babcock Ranch can be applied to other developments, contributing to more climate-resilient communities across the United States. This approach reflects a growing awareness of the need for sustainable and resilient urban planning in the face of increasing climate challenges.”可知,基特森对巴布科克牧场的未来充满希望。故选A。Period Three Developing ideas

It was a normal day in Altitude, a town high in the mountains. People were going about their daily routines, not knowing the disaster that was soon to come. Suddenly, the ground under their feet began to shake. Then people were thrown off their feet and objects flew off shelves. The sound of breaking glass and falling buildings filled the air.
Alice, a young girl who was in her house when the earthquake struck, knew she had to act fast. She got her emergency kit, which included food, water, and a first-aid kit, and ran out of the house.
The streets were messy. Traffic lights were out, cars were overturned, and people were running in fear. Alice knew she had to get to higher ground. She headed for the nearest hill, joining a group of other people. As they reached the top, the full force of the earthquake hit, but Alice and the others managed to stay on top of the hill.
After what seemed like a century, the earthquake finally stopped. Alice looked down at the town she had called home. It was in ruins. Houses were destroyed, roads were cracked open, and a large crack had formed in the middle of the town square.
Alice knew she had to help. She joined hands with other survivors and they began the rescue effort. With simple tools and their bare hands, they dug through the stones and bricks to find anyone who might be trapped inside. In the following days, Alice and the other survivors worked tirelessly to help, providing food, water, and medical aid to those in need. With the help of rescue teams and volunteers from around the country, they slowly but surely began to rebuild their town.
Alice’s experience changed her forever. She realized that life was uncertain, but that people could come together in times of difficulty. She determined to help others whenever she could and above all never to forget the power of community.

When Hurricane Ian made landfall on the southwest Florida coast as a Category 4 storm, it brought strong winds and heavy rain. It was a deadly hurricane, attacking more than four million people, and causing serious flooding and at least 150 deaths. However, during the disaster, there was one innovative community that weathered the storm well: Babcock Ranch, the brainchild of Syd Kitson.
Located 30 miles inland, Babcock Ranch is an environmentally friendly and fully sustainable town that Syd Kitson and his partners hoped would be hurricane-proof. Its homes are built to go through severe weather without losing essential services like electricity, water, or the Internet. A significant factor in its design is that power and Internet lines are buried to avoid wind damage. Additionally, large ponds surround the development to protect houses from flooding. As a backup, streets are designed to absorb floodwaters and spare the houses.
Central to Babcock Ranch’s sustainability is its extensive use of solar energy. The community possesses an 870-acre solar farm with 700,000 individual panels operated by Florida Power & Light, capable of powering 30,000 homes—far more than the 5,000 residents currently living there. At night and on cloudy days, a natural gas generator kicks in to fill the gap.
Hurricane Ian served as a true test for the community. While the surrounding regions suffered, Babcock Ranch’s minimum damage and quick recovery showcased its effective design against natural disasters. Residents even opened their community centre, doubling as a storm shelter, to the victims from other hard-hit communities.
Kitson’s vision for Babcock Ranch is not just about creating a sustainable and resilient (适应性强的) community but also about learning and improving. He hopes that the lessons learned from Babcock Ranch can be applied to other developments, contributing to more climate-resilient communities across the United States. This approach reflects a growing awareness of the need for sustainable and resilient urban planning in the face of increasing climate challenges.
( )5.What does the underlined word “weathered” in Paragraph 1 mean
A.Predicted. B.Changed.
C.Ignored. D.Survived.
( )6.What do we know about Babcock Ranch from the text
A.Its streets allow houses the capability to take in floodwaters.
B.Its design guarantees availability of power in the hurricane.
C.Its solar farm lacks the ability of producing sufficient power.
D.Its main source of electricity supply is provided by natural gas.
( )7.What is the central theme of the fourth paragraph
A.Babcock Ranch’s community and social life.
B.Babcock Ranch’s future expansion strategies.
C.Babcock Ranch’s resistance to natural disasters.
D.Babcock Ranch’s novel technological innovations.

A[2024·广东清中河中北中惠中阳中高一五校联考]
It was a normal day in Altitude, a town high in the
mountains. People were going about their daily routines, not
knowing the disaster that was soon to come. Suddenly, the
ground under their feet began to shake. Then people were
thrown off their feet and objects flew off shelves. The sound of
breaking glass and falling buildings filled the air.

Alice, a young girl who was in her house when the
earthquake struck, knew she had to act fast. She got her
emergency kit, which included food, water, and a first-aid kit,
and ran out of the house.
The streets were messy. Traffic lights were out, cars were
overturned, and people were running in fear. Alice knew she
had to get to higher ground. She headed for the nearest hill,
joining a group of other people. As they reached the top, the
full force of the earthquake hit, but Alice and the others
managed to stay on top of the hill.

After what seemed like a century, the earthquake finally
stopped. Alice looked down at the town she had called home.
It was in ruins. Houses were destroyed, roads were cracked
open, and a large crack had formed in the middle of the town
square.
Alice knew she had to help. She joined hands with other
survivors and they began the rescue effort. With simple tools
and their bare hands, they dug through the stones and bricks
to find anyone who might be trapped inside.

In the following days, Alice and the other survivors worked
tirelessly to help, providing food, water, and medical aid to
those in need. With the help of rescue teams and volunteers
from around the country, they slowly but surely began to
rebuild their town.
Alice's experience changed her forever. She realized that life
was uncertain, but that people could come together in times of
difficulty. She determined to help others whenever she could
and above all never to forget the power of community.

B[2024·山东淄博实验中学、十一中、五中、齐盛高一期中]
When Hurricane Ian made landfall on the southwest Florida
coast as a Category 4 storm, it brought strong winds and heavy
rain. It was a deadly hurricane, attacking more than four million
people, and causing serious flooding and at least 150 deaths.
However, during the disaster, there was one innovative
community that weathered the storm well: Babcock Ranch, the
brainchild of Syd Kitson.

Located 30 miles inland, Babcock Ranch is an
environmentally friendly and fully sustainable town that Syd
Kitson and his partners hoped would be hurricane-proof. Its
homes are built to go through severe weather without losing
essential services like electricity, water, or the Internet. A
significant factor in its design is that power and Internet lines
are buried to avoid wind damage. Additionally, large ponds
surround the development to protect houses from flooding. As
a backup, streets are designed to absorb floodwaters and spare
the houses.

Central to Babcock Ranch's sustainability is its extensive use
of solar energy. The community possesses an 870-acre solar
farm with 700,000 individual panels operated by Florida Power
& Light, capable of powering 30,000 homes—far more than the
5,000 residents currently living there. At night and on cloudy
days, a natural gas generator kicks in to fill the gap.
Hurricane Ian served as a true test for the community.
While the surrounding regions suffered, Babcock Ranch's
minimum damage and quick recovery showcased its effective

design against natural disasters. Residents even opened their
community centre, doubling as a storm shelter, to the victims
from other hard-hit communities.
Kitson's vision for Babcock Ranch is not just about creating
a sustainable and resilient (适应性强的) community but also
about learning and improving. He hopes that the lessons
learned from Babcock Ranch can be applied to other
developments, contributing to more climate-resilient communities
across the United States. This approach reflects a growing
awareness of the need for sustainable and resilient urban
planning in the face of increasing climate challenges.
