At 10:46 am on that summers day, the quake hit with a magnitude of 7.9 on the Richter scale (里氏地震). The centre of the quake lied some 15 to 20 kilometers north of the two main centers, Napier and Hastings. The quake lasted for two and a half minutes. Many people died in the earthquake.A fire broke out immediately after the quake. The fire started in a chemists shop and spread quickly. Then the Fire Department in Napier came to help, but they were at a loss to control the fire as a result of losing their water supply. However, the water supply in Hasting, was still usable, allowing them to fight back against the fire.The force of the earthquake destroyed many of the citys famous landmarks (地标). Chunks of the coastline were thrown into the sea. Napiers Bluff Hill, a popular tourist spot, was completely destroyed and thrown into the waters below.Most of the major buildings in the city were completely destroyed. Roads and communications across the whole area were cut. People were afraid to enter their homes for days and found shelters at the local Motor Camp or on the beach. There were about 150 aftershocks(余震) in the 24 hours after the main shock. Over the next 2 weeks, there would be 525 such aftershocks.28.

The great fire after the great earthquakeD.The citys famous landmarksDBe careful on January 8th Its officially the most dangerous day of the year. The insurance company Hyperion has studied accident statistics(统计数字) and has found that there are more accidents on January 8th than on any other day.Accidents are certainly more likely to happen at particular times of the year. One general rule is that more accidents happen in winter months, because risk increases in bad weather. In 2020 and 2020 Hyperion found that the worst day was January 8th, with 298 accidents reported to them. March 3rd was the safest day, with only 89 reports. Six of the ten worst days for driving were in January.Its clear that icy and snowy conditions are dangerous, but some other statistics are puzzling. A British Medical Journal report in 2001, for example, found that hospital admissions(住院) were always higher than usual on Friday the 13th.But it is not only when Friday falls on the 13th that it is a dangerous day. Four of the top ten worst days for accidents last year were Fridays perhaps because everyone is rushing home for the weekend while Thursdays are the safest day of the week.At what time of the day is an accident most likely to happen? The Health and Safety Authority found that people are most likely to have an accident at 11.00 a.m., while the safest time of day is between 4:00 and 5:00 a.m. probably because most people are in bed!Finally, good news for Harry Potter fans. Doctors at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford noted that fewer children were in hospital on the weekend when Harry Potter books were available to the public. Casualties(伤亡人员) fell by over 50% when the last two books went on sale. So if you want to be really safe, you should read a Harry Potter book in bed, at around 5:00 on a Thursday morning, in summer.32. What is special about January 8th according to Hyperion?A. The weather is often the worst. B. More accidents happen than usual.C. More people are rushed to hospital. D. Its the safest day in winter months.33. Why are Fridays considered to be dangerous?A. Fridays often fall on the 13th. B. Busy weekdays tire people out.C. Everyone is in a hurry to go home. D. Its easy to get caught in heavy traffic.34. What happened when there was a new Harry Potter book?A. It was the safest day of the year. B. People were more likely to go out.C. Fewer children ended up in hospital. D. The driving conditions were the worst.35. What is the purpose of this text?A. To solve a problem. B. To give practical advice.C. To tell an interesting story. D. To show some research results.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。HowtoHaveaSuccessfulTeenageLifeEveryone wants to succeed in their life, dont they?
