A.awoundedanimalB.screamingpeopleC.runningchildren D.anearthquake答案:D解析:細節(jié)理解題。由第一段前兩句可知,theroaringsound應是發(fā)生地震時發(fā)出的聲音。25Whenthewriterclenchedhisfingershewas.

A.afraid B.angryC.injured D.impatient答案:A解析:細節(jié)理解題。由倒數第二段可知,作者握緊手時非常害怕。26Paragraph2describesthe.

A.panic B.hopeC.sorrow D.excitement答案:B解析:推理判斷題。從文章最后一句我們可以看出他可能死不了了,應感覺有希望了。28Theunderlinedword“ceased”inthelastparagraphprobablymeans“”.

A.continued B.lastedC.stopped D.increased答案:C解析:詞義猜測題。由最后一句“PerhapsIwasn’tgoingtodie.”可推知,那種搖晃已經停止了。ceased與stopped的含義最接近。CWhennewspapersandradiosreportthedamagecausedbyahurricane(颶風)calledHazel,agirlwhosenameisHazelisprobablyplayedajokeonbyothers.Tokeepoutoftrouble,theWeatherBureausays,“Anyresemblance(相似)betweenhurricanenamesandthenamesofparticulargirlsisonlyaccidental.”Somewomenbecameangrybecausehurricanesaregiventheirnames,butmanyotherwomenareproudtoseetheirnamesmakeheadlines.Theydon’tevencarethattheyarethenamesofdestructivestorms.Becausemorewomenseemtolikeitthandislikeit,theWeatherBureauhasdecidedtocontinueusinggirls’namesforhurricanes.Insomewaysahurricaneislikeaperson.Afteritisborn,itgrowsanddevelops,thenbeesoldanddies.Eachhurricanehasacharacterofitsown.Eachfollowsitsownwaythroughtheworld,andpeoplerememberitlongafterithasgone.Soitisnaturaltogivehurricanesnames,andtotalkaboutthemalmostasiftheywerealive.29WhathappenstothegirlsnamedHazelwhenhurricaneHazelisreported?A.Theysufferfromhurricanes.B.TheWeatherBureaulooksforthem.C.Othersoftenmakefunofthem.D.Theycan’tfindboyfriends.答案:C解析:細節(jié)理解題。由第一段第一句中的“agirlwhosenameisHazelisprobablyplayedajokeonbyothers”可知,別人可能會取笑名叫黑茲爾(Hazel)的女孩。30Theunderlinedword“They”inthesecondparagraphrefersto.

A.thereportersB.theheadlinesC.somewomenwhobeeangryD.somewomenwhoareproud答案:D解析:細節(jié)理解題。該詞所在句的含義是“她們甚至不在意它們是毀滅性颶風的名字”,此處顯然指那些為自己的名字上了報紙而自豪的女士。31PublicopinionsmaketheWeatherBureau.
