Everything was quiet and the book in my hands was lovely until I felt my chair moving. At that moment, I thought to myself, “It is an earthquake (地震).” I was scared as I ran to tell my parents. But when I reached them, the earthquake stopped.Nothing happened in the next few hours. My family and I were not in danger and our house was still standing. We watched the news about the earthquake. The epicenter (震中) was very close to Muzaffarabad. We felt lucky to be in the city of Kashmir. After we watched the situation in Muzaffarabad, I decided to volunteer to help those people right away.I arrived in the city of Muzaffarabad with a few other volunteers. We tried to help out the people there. After hours of digging, we found a few survivors (幸存者). We quickly sent for doctors to make sure they were all right. When they met their families, they cried for joy. That made me very happy. However, not everyone had a happy ending. We also found bodies of those not making it through the earthquake. And I felt terrible when I saw the tears of the people crying for those dead people.19．The writer was ________ when the earthquake happened.A．reading a book B．cooking breakfastC．moving a table D．talking with his parents20．We can infer ________ in Muzaffarabad from the passage.A．the earthquake was not terribleB．the earthquake lasted for a short timeC．nobody died during the earthquakeD．some houses fell down during the earthquake21．What did the writer do after the earthquake?A．He looked after his parents.

People in Southeast Asia are experiencing this. In May, temperatures in many countries have reached about 50°C, including Thailand and the Philippines.We all know that summers are hot. But why is it so crazily hot now in Southeast Asia? Global warming (全球变暖), which we have talked about a lot, is of course one of the reasons for the heat. What makes it even hotter is a climate pattern (气候模式) called El Nino. This brings more warm ocean water and influences land temperatures.“On some days, it can even get so hot that it feels like your skin (皮肤) is burning,” Sek Seila, an 11-year-old student from Cambodia, told CNN. When it’s really hot, you might feel dizzy (头晕的), throw up, or even pass out (昏迷). In very serious situations, the heat could lead to death.Even if you feel OK, your daily life may be very different. Schools might close because they don’t have air conditioning (空调系统). You might not have fish to eat because they died in the heat. Vegetables could become more expensive because the heat influences how much can be grown. For farming families, their plants could be damaged by the heat.Rich people can live comfortably in rooms with air conditioning, but many others can’t. They use simple ways to stay cool. For example, people paint roofs white to reflect (反射) more sunlight and make it cooler inside. They also wear light-colored clothes, drink more water and shower more often. “The climate crisis (危机) is deeply unfair,” said a World Economic Forum report. This is because the poor suffer (遭受) more in the heat.23．Why does the writer use “frying pan” in the first paragraph?A．To show the cooking in Southeast Asia.B．To talk about personal experiences.C．To introduce Asian culture.D．To show how hot it can be.24．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A．Special climate patterns.B．The influence of global warming.C．The causes of El Nino.D．Reasons behind the unusual heat.25．What are the possible results of the crazy heat?a. Expensive air conditioners.b. Health problems.c. The closing of schools.d. Food shortages.e. Better environment.A．abcB．aceC．bcdD．cde26．What can we learn from people’s ways of dealing with the heat?A．Hot weather can bring people lots of fun.B．Light-colored clothes can reflect heat.C．Air conditioners are not environmentally-friendly.D．Drinking water is the best way to cool down. D①Hail (冰雹), also called hailstorm, is a form of precipitation (降水形式)—like rain or snow—that is made up of ice. Hailstorms may happen all year long. Hail can even form in summer as long as the storms are strong.②Hailstorms often visit the United States. The area where Nebraska, Colorado and Wyoming meet is known as “Hail Alley” and they suffer seven to nine hail days every year. It’s hard to tell exactly when a hailstorm might come.③Hailstorms are very dangerous. They can cause lots of damage (破坏) to people, buildings, cars, plants and animals. In fact, hailstorms can even cause deaths. For example, a hailstorm killed around 1,000 English soldiers in 1360. So we should know how to stay safe during it.④One way to protect yourself from a hailstorm is to have your tools prepared throughout the year, and one of them must be helmets. They can help you save your head from both the hail itself and other things brought by heavy storm. You should also make a plan for your family so that you all know where to go for safety.⑤What’s more, make sure you stay inside until the hail stops and stay away from windows. If possible, find a room at least one level down from the top of the house. Finally, if you get caught outside in a hail storm and can’t find a house to stay in, find something to protect your head. Remember: stay out of lowland areas, because they could be filled with water. And don’t forget to avoid trees.27．What does the underlined word “helmets” in paragraph 4 mean?A．Thick coats. B．Big knives. C．Hard hats. D．Light umbrellas.28．How many ways of staying safe during a hailstorm are mentioned in the passage?A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four.29．What may be the right reason why you should stay away from trees when a hailstorm is outside?A．The broken branch (树枝) falls and it may hit you.B．There is more rain under the trees.C．The trees are not beautiful because of the hailstorm.D．The tree leaves will drop on the head.30．What is the structure of the passage?A． B． C．D．第二节 任务型阅读（共5题，每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面材料，从方框中所给的 A—E五个选项中选出正确选项(其中一项是多余选项),将其序号填入第31—34小题，并回答第35小题。A Memorable Train Station Experience Last weekend, there was a terrible forest fire while David Black was on the trip with his family.

It was a reminder that nature could be both beautiful and powerful.Reporter: What did you learn?David Black: 34 I was proud to see how everyone worked together to help each other.
