Cars, trains and buildings cannot survive, _5_ the people who stand in the _6_. When the ocean is deep, tsunamis can travel unnoticed _7_ a speed of up to 800 kilometres per hour. They can cross the _8_ ocean in a day or less.Tsunamis can be very _9_as much as 100 kilometres an hour. They are able to cross entire oceans without losing much energy. One ofthe most _10_ facts about tsunamis is _11_ an earthquake on one side of the Pacific Ocean can cause large waves and destruction (破坏) on the other side.The wave may only be a few metres high in the ocean but when it is near the _12_ and reaches shallow (浅的) water, the wave _13_ very quickly in height. Someone is said to have seen up to 10metre high waves crash into the shore.Tsunamis travel outward in all directions from the centre of an earthquake and _14_ coastlines, and they can easily cause flooding and _15_ property.They have caused several _16_ disasters in coastal areas over the years. A powerful example of the seas power _17_ more than 125,000 people die in 12 different countries on December 26, 2004. The tsunamis were caused by an earthquake _18_ 8.9 on the Richter scale, which occurred off the coast of Indonesia. On July 17, 1998 an offshore quake triggered (引发) a wave that struck the north coast of Papua New Guinea _19_ some 2,000 people and left thousands more _20_.1A.makeBreachCdoDhappen答案：D“经常发生在大洋中”，此处需要用不及物动词，happen表示“爆发；发生”。2A.commonBpopularCcalmDfamiliar答案：AC、D项不符合句意，首先可以排除；popular意为“流行的；受欢迎的”，也与句意不符；common意为“常见的；普遍的”。3A.attractsBincludesCburiesDgains答案：B句意是“通常海啸有连续的波浪”。attract意为“吸引”；bury意为“埋葬”；gain意为“获得”；只有include符合句意，意为“含有，包括”。4A.putBsweptCtakenDfled答案：Bbe swept aside by意为“被冲走”。5A.more thanBother thanClet goDlet alone答案：Dlet alone是固定搭配，意为“更不用说了”，承接上文。这两句话的意思是“海水的力量可以轻而易举地把海边的城镇冲走，更不用说人了”。6A.dustBcaseCwayDstory答案：C和第5空在一句话中，in the way意为“挡路”，也是固定短语。7A.inBbyCatDfor答案：C表示“以的速度”，要用介词at，即at a speed of。8A.entireBnaturalCgeneralDlonely答案：A此句意为“它们可以在不到一天的时间内跨过整个大洋”，说明其速度之快。entire意为“整个的”；其他三项：natural“自然的”；general“一般的”；lonely“偏僻的”，都不符合句意，所以都可排除。9A.farBhighCfastDbig答案：C从破折号后面的as much as 100 kilometres an hour可以判断，此处应该用fast。10A.interestingBstrikingCachingDbreaking答案：Binteresting“有趣的”；aching“疼痛的”；striking“异乎寻常的；引人注目的”；breaking“突然的”。根据句意，首先可以排除A、C两项，由上句和空后修饰的名词facts，可以排除breaking，因为不可能是“突然的事实”。11A.whereBwhetherCthatDwhen答案：C此句意为“关于海啸的一个不寻常的事实是，太平洋一端的地震会引起巨大的波浪并对另一端形成破坏”。that引导的是表语从句，陈述一个事实。12A.rootBshoreCseaDbottom答案：B由句中的shallow和下句话的.to 10metre high waves crash into the shore.”可以判断此处要用shore，意为“波浪到岸边时会很快变高”。13A.takes upBexplodes upCuses upDbuilds up答案：D考查短语的意义。take up意为“占据”；explode up意为“爆炸”；use up意为“用光”；build up意为“增高”。只有build up符合句意。14A.arriveBaffecthttp:/ww w.xkb1. comCattackDadd答案：Cattack意为“袭击”；arrive后要接介词；affect意为“影响”；而add意为“增加”。根据句意，可以排除arrive，affect和add。15A.attemptBorganizeCsufferDdestroy答案：D对财产造成破坏。destroy意为“破坏”。16A.majorBactiveCtenseDunknown答案：Amajor表示“重要的；大的”，意为“近几年来海啸在沿海地区造成过几次大的危害”；tense意为“紧张的”；active意为“活跃的”，显然不合句意。17A.sawBsucceededCinventedDsuggested答案：A这里see是一种拟人化的用法，是“见证”之意；其他三项均不符合句意。18A.measuringBfiguringCexpressedDsupposed答案：A表示“度量”时，要用measure，后面接的是地震的级数；figure意为“计算”；express意为“表达”；suppose意为“认为；假设”，都可以排除。此处的measuring作定语，相当于定语从句which measured.。19A.diedBowedCforcedDkilled答案：Da wave. killed some 2,000 people意为“波浪使两千人死去”，kill是及物动词。die是不及物动词，不能接宾语，所以可以排除。20A.winlessBhomelessCbreathlessDhopeless答案：Bhomeless意为“无家可归的”。.阅读理解Check out our tsunami facts and learn some interesting information related to these great walls of water that can cause so much destruction. Find out what causes tsunamis and read about some recent examples of tsunamis that have occurred around the globe.The Japanese word for tsunami means harbor wave.Tsunamis are sometimes referred to as tidal (受潮汐影响的) waves but this term has fallen out of favour because tsunamis are not related to tides.Tsunamis are huge waves of water that are usually caused by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.As a tsunami approaches the shore (海岸), water may move back from the coast. If it is shallow (浅的) enough the water may be pulled back hundreds of metres. If you are in the area, you can know that a tsunami is on the way when you see this phenomenon. Regions in tsunami danger zones often have warning systems in place to give people as much time as possible to move to a safe place.When tsunamis hit shallow water (often near the coast) they slow down but increase in height.An earthquake in the Indian Ocean off Indonesia in December 2004 caused a tsunami that killed over 200,000 people in 14 countries. In March 2011, the Tohoku earthquake off the eastern coast of Japan caused a tsunami that was a major factor in the death of over 15,000 people.The tsunami waves created by the Tohoku earthquake reached heights of over 40 metres in some areas, wiping out coastal towns and causing a number of nuclear accidents.1. How many causes of tsunamis are mentioned in the text?AOne.BTwo.CThree.DFour.答案：B细节理解题。由第四段可知，海啸通常是由地震或火山爆发引起的。2. In the Tohoku earthquake over 15,000 people died mainly because of _.Athe earthquake itselfBthe lack of warning systemsCthe tsunami caused by the earthquakeDthe nuclear accidents caused by the tsunami答案：C细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“.a tsunami that was a major factor in the death of over 15,000 people”可知，在2011年日本大地震中，海啸是造成超过15,000人死亡的主要原因。故C项正确。3. What do we learn from the text?AThe Japanese invented the term “tidal waves”BThe term “tidal waves” is used more often than tsunami.CWhen tsunamis slow down, their waves can reach 40 metres.DWhen hitting shallow water, tsunamis will rise higher.答案：D细节理解题。根据倒数第四段可知当海啸袭击浅的水域时，它们的高度会增加。故D项正确。4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?AOver 200,000 people were killed in 14 countries because of the earthquake in Dec. 2004.BSometimes tsunamis are said as tidal waves, because they are related to tides.CThe warning systems in some regions help people move to a safe place.DIf you see water move to the coast, there will be a tsunami on the way.答案：C细节理解题。从文章第六段可以看出C项正确。由倒数第三段可以看出是由于地震引起的海啸使20万人丧生，而非地震本身，A项错误。B项与第三段意思相反，故为错误选项。文章第五段提到，海啸来时海水会从海岸向后退，而非向前进，故D项错误。5The text is developed mainly by _.Alisting some factsBgiving some examplesCproviding some numbersDmaking some comparisons答案：A写作手法题。本文主要列举了一些关于海啸的基本常识和事实。故A项正确。.语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。【全国新课标卷题型】Millions _1_ words have been said about young people in the United States.
