【改编自译林必修三U2】
Pompeii was a typical Roman city. In its little shops, its tiny palaces, its forum, its wine bars, its theatre—in the energy and skill of its people, you saw a model of the whole Roman Empire. Trading ships bringing imports to the city or carrying exports overseas, along with golden pleasure boats for the rich, were crowded together in the glassy water of the port. The boats of the fishermen moved rapidly in all directions. Above all, the cloud capped top of Mount Vesuvius appeared. Its ashy rocks, now dark, now light, told a story of past eruptions that might have warned the city what was to come!
The awful night rolled slowly away, and the dawn greyly broke on THE LAST DAY OF POMPEII! The crowd looked upwards, and saw, with unspeakable fear, a huge cloud shooting from the top of the volcano. It took the form of a huge tree: the trunk, blackness, the branches, fire! This fire moved and changed in colour with every moment：now it was wildly bright, now of a pale and dying red, and now again it burnt with an unbearable light!
The cries of women broke out; the men looked at each other, but were silent. At that moment, they felt the earth shaking beneath their feet；beyond in the distance, they heard the crash of falling roofs. A moment later, the mountain-cloud seemed to roll towards them, dark and rapid, like a river; at the same time, it threw out a shower of ashes and huge pieces of burning stone! Over the empty streets—over the forum—far and wide—with many a noisy crash in the stormy sea—fell that awful shower!
Each turned to fly—each running, pressing, pushing against the other. If, in the darkness, wife was separated from husband, or parent from child, there was no hope of their meeting again. Each hurried blindly and fearfully on. So came the earthquake...and so ended life in Pompeii.
1．What could be seen in the port of Pompeii

Ⅰ.阅读理解
For decades，climate scientists have named hurricanes and ranked them according to the damage.“Naming and categorizing(把……归类) heat waves is also a must，” states a newly formed international union，called the Extreme Heat Resilience Alliance. “Hurricanes get attention because they cause obvious physical damage，” says Jennifer Marlon，a climate scientist at Yale University.Heat waves, however, have less evident effects，since the primary damage is to human health.
Heat waves kill more people in the United States than any other weather related disaster. Data from the National Weather Service show that from 1986 to 2019, there were 4，257 deaths as a result of heat.By comparison，there were fewer deaths by floods(2，907)，tornadoes(2，203) or hurricanes(1，405) over the same period.What's more, climate change is increasing the possibility of high temperature events worldwide，getting tens of thousands of people dying each year because of heat.
Some populations are particularly easily harmed by high heat，including people over 65 and those with potential medical conditions.Historical racial discrimination also puts minority communities at higher risk.Due to housing policies，they are more likely to live in urban areas, heat islands which lack green spaces that help cool down neighborhoods.
Part of the naming and ranking process will include defining exactly what a heat wave is.No single definition currently exists.Without a universally accepted definition of a heat wave，“We don't have a common understanding of the danger we face，” says Aaron Bernstein，an expert of the new group.“Defined categories for heat waves could help local officials better prepare to deal with potential health problems in the face of rising temperatures.And naming and categorizing heat waves could increase public awareness of the health risks caused by these silent killers.”
The union is having conversations with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration，the World Meteorological Organization and other institutions to develop a standard naming and ranking practice.
