But do you know there are people called ABCs? Do you know there is such a thing as “a banana person”? How strange! ABC means American-born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside. So, when a person is a “banana”, he or she is white insidethinking like a Westerner and yellow outsidelooking like a Chinese.Usually, ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language. Some of them dont speak Chinese. But if ABCs cannot speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are overseas（海外的）Chinese. These people may be citizens（公民）of another country like the US, Canada or Singapore. But they have Chinese blood. Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair.But they are not Chinese citizens. They are people of the Peoples Republic of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist C. N. Yang（杨振宁）. He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957. Chinese people love him. But he is an American citizen.1. “ABCs” in this passage means .A. three English lettersB. a kind of banana C. Chinese born in AmericaD. Americans born in China2. Chinese in Western countries are called “banana persons” because .A. their bodies are white inside but yellow outsideB. they think like Westerners but look like ChineseC. they were born in China but go to study in AmericaD. they like to eat bananas3. The underlined word “blood” may probably mean .A. 洪水B. 祖先C. 血统D. 身份4. Which of the sentences is WRONG about ABCs?A. ABCs may know little about China. B. They are overseas Chinese.C. They may speak little Chinese.D. They are Chinese citizens.5. This passage mainly talks about .A. different kinds of bananasB. overseas ChineseC. the Nobel PrizeD. the story of C.N. YangBMaybe you know floods, earthquakes, sandstorms and so on. But have you heard of typhoons?Typhoons are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates （蒸发）into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into sky. Then cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles（圆圈）and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 metres a second, a typhoon begins.A typhoon has two parts, one is called the “eye”. In the eye, the wind does not move so fast. The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. Here are the strongest winds and hardest rains.Typhoons are very dangerous. In November this year, Typhoon Haiyan killed 5500 people in Philippines. More people are missing.What to do when a typhoon hits?l Stay inside. Close all the windows and stay away from them.l Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes!l Listen to the radio or TV for important information.l If youre told to go to a safer place, do it right now.6. This passage is most probably from . A. an advertisement of a typhoon B. a travel recordC. a weather report D. a science magazine7. Typhoons often happen .A. in the hot seasonB. in the cold seasonC. only in ChinaD. under the sea8. In which order（顺序）does a typhoon happen?a. The wind moves fast enough, a typhoon starts.b. The air moves quickly, making wind.c. The sun makes sea water hot.d. The air gets warmer.A. d-c-b-a B. c-d-b-a C. c-d-a-b D. d-b-a-c9. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The warmer the air gets, the slower the wind moves.B. 5500 people died because of Typhoon Haiyan around the world.C. The strongest winds and hardest rains are in the wall of clouds. D. A typhoon will not happen before the wind goes faster than 30 km a second.10. When a typhoon comes, we CANNOT .A. close all the windowsB. listen to typhoon newsC. stay inside the strong houseD. go outside to find a safer place四、任务型阅读 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容完成表格中所缺信息，在答题卷上相应的横线上填写答案，每空限填一词。(本大题共5分，每小题0.5分)Hobbies are activities, which we do in our free time.
