A
After the fire, what now
Bishop Patrick Chauvet, Notre Dame's manager, admitted that the famous building would close for “five to six years” as he spoke with local business owners Wednesday. He added that it was unclear what the church's 67 employees would be doing in the future but he promised the building would revive after being restored. French President Emmanuel Macron said Tuesday that he wanted the church rebuilt in five years.
﹡What are the new rules
While tourists can't go inside the site itself, the area still may prove popular to those paying their respects. Visitors are welcome to write messages of support about both the main and local city halls.
The island that houses the church has been closed and the people there have been evacuated since the fire. Paris businessmen who depend on Notre Dame tourism are worried about the church's future as well as their own.
﹡
It's known that spring is a busy time for tourists in Paris. The travel companies recommend people visit other places, like the Basilique Saint-Denis, the Sacre-Coeur and so on. Those who tend to observe church services during Holy Week are advised to go to Saint-Eustache.
﹡Looking ahead to rebuilding.
It seems rebuilding can begin, since firefighters put out the fire early Tuesday, more than 12 hours after nearly 400 firefighters had battled the flames that changed the city's skyline. Two policemen and one firefighter were slightly injured, according to the Paris Fire Service.
A large campaign to raise money is already underway to rebuild the church. Up to Wednesday, donations had come to $1 billion.
1.What can we learn from what the manager said
A.The famous building will be closed forever.
B.The building will be built in the future.
C.The government will give the employees jobs.
D.The president will make a plan to rebuild the building.
2.Which of the following subtitles can be filled in the blank
A.Saint-Eustache is favored by tourists.
B.Tour companies offer other choices.
C.Church culture develops fast in Paris.
D.The best time to visit Paris is spring.
3.According to the passage, what will happen after the fire
A.The government will arrange work for 67 employees.
B.Visitors will be forbidden to leave messages anywhere.
C.Churches in Paris will also be examined and repaired.
D.More money will be donated for the rebuilding project.
B
Mandara seemed to know something big was about to happen. So she let out a yell, caught hold of her 2-year-old daughter Kibibi and climbed up into a tree. She lives at the National Zoo in Washington D.C.
And on Tuesday, August 23rd, witnesses said she seemed to sense the big earthquake that shook much of the East Coast before any human knew what was going on. And she was not the only one. In the moments before the quake, an orangutan(红毛猩猩) let out a loud call and then climbed to the top of her shelter.
“It's very different from their normal call,” said Brandie Smith, the zookeeper. “The lemurs (狐猴) will sound an alarm if they see or hear something highly unusual.”
But you can't see or hear an earthquake 15 minutes before it happens, can you Maybe you can—if you're an animal.
“Animals can hear above and below our range of hearing,” said Brandie Smith. “That's part of their special abilities. They're more sensitive to the environment, which is how they survive.”
Primates weren't the only animals that seemed to sense the quake before it happened. One of the elephants made a warning sound and a huge lizard (蜥蜴) ran quickly for cover. The flamingoes (a kind of bird) gathered before the quake and stayed together until the shaking stopped.
So what kind of vibration(震动) were the animals picking up in the moments before the quake Scientist Susan Hough said earthquakes produce two types of waves—a weak “P” wave and then a much stronger “S” wave. The “P” stands for “primary” and the “S” stands for “secondary”. She thought the “P” wave might be what set the animals off.
Not all the animals behaved unusually before the quake. For example, Smith said the zoo's giant pandas didn't jump up until the shaking actually began. But many of the other animals seemed to know something was coming before it happened. “I'm not surprised at all,” said Smith.
4.Why did Mandara act strangely one day
A.Because she sensed something unusual would happen.
B.Because her daughter Kibibi was injured.
C.Because she heard an orangutan let out a loud call.
D.Because an earthquake had happened.
5.According to Brandie Smith, .
A.many animals' hearing is sharp
B.earthquakes produce two types of waves
C.primates usually gather together before a quake
D.humans can also develop the ability to sense a quake
6.Which animal seems unable to sense a quake
A.A giant panda.
B.A flamingo.
C.A lemur.
D.A lizard.
7.What is the best title for the passage
A.How animals survive a quake
B.How animals differ from humans
C.How animals behave before a quake
D.How animals protect their young in a quake

If you're in a hurricane-hit area and plan on riding it out, proper 1 (prepare) is the key. And there is one thing you should have around at all times: a plastic water bottle. Why When the weather 2 (take) a turn for the worse, a water bottle is one of the most useful things 3 you have in your home. It might even save your life. Severe flooding caused by a hurricane can make the local drinking water dirty with some 4 (danger) substances. 5 (avoid) a serious illness, it's best to store plenty of bottled water to drink safely.
That's pretty obvious, of course. But keep those empty plastic
6 (bottle) around after you drink, too,because they have lots of uncommon uses. For example, 7 empty water bottle can turn into a water filter(滤水器) if you need to drink from the tap. If your lights go 8 , don't try the old-fashioned way with candles; you can rely on your handy plastic water bottles once again. Simply tape a small flashlight to the bottom of a bottle, and 9 (it) plastic (and the water inside) will amplify the glow(增强光亮). Then the little light can 10 (use) to light up a room or send signals to rescue personnel.

Causes of sandstorms
In desert areas, sandstorms are most commonly caused by either thunderstorm outflows(外流) or strong pressure gradients(气压梯度)which cause an increase in wind speed over a wide area. In some cases, dust and sand may set a limit to a shallow depth by a low-lying temperature change. 1 Drought is another cause of sandstorms. Poor farming practices make dust and sand free of protection from the wind.
2 A sandstorm can transport and carry large amounts of sand. Deserts are the key source of sandstorms. Saharan sandstorms have increased about 10 times during the half century since the 1950s, causing topsoil(表土层) loss in nearby countries. 3
Sandstorms have also been shown to increase the spread of disease across the globe. Viruses in the dust are blown into the atmosphere by the storms. Some diseases may not be urgent at the very beginning, but they can develop into deadly ones if left untreated. 4
Sandstorms cause soil loss from the dry land, doing harm to agriculture. Sandstorms also reduce visibility, affecting airplanes and road transportation. 5
Dust can also have good effects. Central and South American rainforests get most of their mineral nutrients from the Sahara; iron-poor ocean regions get iron.
A.This is one of the effects of sandstorms.
B.Bad results are caused by sandstorms.
C.Dry land farming is one of the most serious practices.
D.People know little about the effects about sandstorms.
E.In other cases, dust may be blown as high as 6,100 meters high.
F.For example, a breathing problem can lead to lung cancer, while dry eyes lead to blindness.
G.In addition, sandstorms also discourage visitors from visiting these places, striking tourism.

【阅读练】
On the day the tornado hit, there was no sign that fierce weather was on its way—the sky was blue and the sun had been out. The first warning my husband, Jimmy, 67, and I, 65, got came around 9 p.m., from some text on the TV Jimmy was watching. He ran upstairs to find me in our third-floor bedroom, and we changed the channel from the national television to our local Pensacola, Florida, station.
Soon the tornado was on top of us. It was the loudest thing I had ever heard. The bones of the house shook, and the power went out. And the wind began to roar(咆哮) through the house, most likely through blown-out windows and the door to our garage. Everything was moving. And the back wall of the house came off and flew into the darkness outside. We had three flights of steps to get to the storeroom down there, the relative safety of the first floor.
I didn't know how or if we would make it down the steps. It felt as if there were no floor underneath me as the wind lifted me off my feet. As we finally reached the last flight of steps, our front door was blown out. Suddenly, a three-foot-long tree branch flew over our heads, missing us by inches.
By the time I reached the storeroom, the tornado had been over us for about a minute. Jimmy pushed me down to the storeroom floor, but he couldn't get inside himself because of the wind. I held Jimmy's arm as the tornado blew the door open. My knees were full of glass, but I felt no pain. If I had let go, Jimmy would have flown right out the back of the house.
All of a sudden, Jimmy lifted off his feet. I thought he was gone. And then everything stopped. He landed on his feet. In those first quiet moments, I couldn't believe it was over. Our neighbor said the storm lasted four minutes. In that time, four of the twelve town houses in our unit were completely destroyed. Amazingly, none of us were seriously injured.
1.Where did the couple learn about the coming fierce weather
A.From the dark sky.
B.From the national television.
C.From the local news report.
D.From the text sent by their neighbors.
2.What can we infer from Paragraph 2 about the couple
A.They were hit by a tree branch.
B.They tried to get out of the house.
C.Their garage was blown to pieces.
D.Their house was badly destroyed.
3.What do we know about Jimmy when the author reached the storeroom
A.He was in great danger.
B.He flew out of the house.
C.He was seriously injured.
D.He got inside the storeroom.

A Girl Who Is Good at Drawing
Mary 1 drawings were shown at the exhibition last month is a model student 2 is often praised for her good work at school. As soon as we got into the exhibition hall our attention was attracted by a very large picture 3 was hung on the wall in front of us.
The horse 4 was drawn in the picture was exactly like a real horse. The man 5 was riding on it looked like a living man.
It was the best picture 6 I had ever seen, and I should say Mary is the best young painter 7 I have ever heard of. However, you will be quite mistaken if you think that Mary was born a good painter. One of her teachers told me that it had taken Mary thousands of hours to learn and practise drawing until she became the best young painter

Earthquake can strike without warning. But many injuries and deaths from this kind of natural disaster can be prevented if people follow these safety tips.
If you're inside a building, stay there! One of the most dangerous things to do in an earthquake is to try to leave a building. 1 Drop to the ground. Get under something that is not easily damaged. Hold on to it until the shaking stops. You can also get to a corner formed by two walls with your arms over your head. If you're in bed when the earthquake hits, stay there and protect your head with a pillow.
2 Don't take shelter under trees, street lights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop as quickly as possible and stay away from overpasses(立交桥), buildings, bridges or anything else that might fall or collapse beneath you. 3
If you are trapped in ruins, cover your mouth with a handkerchief or a piece of cloth. Use your cellphone to call for help if possible. Don't shout. 4 Tap on a pipe or the wall so rescuers can find you.
Be prepared for aftershocks. 5 However, sometimes they even happen months later. Therefore, if you are not in a safe place after the first shock, you should move quickly but carefully to a safer place.
A.Don't move about or kick up dust.
B.If you're outside, go to an open space.
C.Shouting can cause you to breathe in dust.
D.Don't park your car under a tree or any tall object.
E.Take a good hold of your cellphone in the building.
F.They can happen in the first hours after the earthquake.
G.Most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out.

A
In late March, storms and rapid temperature shifts in several Midwestern states led to unexpected flooding. For Nebraska, it was the worst disaster in the state's history: 76 of 93 counties have had to apply for aid, with damage approximately $1.3 billion. Many families are receiving assistance for repairs to homes, farms, and infrastructure(基础设施).
Although it has been a destructive time for Midwestern farm counties, many volunteers have joined in despite the dangers. For volunteer Lynn Caniglia, the feeling that comes from “helping families” is all the payment she needs.
Another girl called Jeanie Goodhile talked about her efforts. She raised disabled animals on her farm in Valley, Nebraska. The floods ruined her land and nearly killed all she owned. “When the water came, I had 20 minutes to save all of my animals,” Goodhile said. “When I attempted to get some animals out of their pens(畜栏), they wouldn't come out.” Across the Midwest, three people and more than 2.3 million animals died in the flooding. Goodhile is grateful for the first volunteers who risked their lives to save others.
Volunteers from as far away as Ohio and North Carolina rescued people trapped and are now providing supplies for those in need and helping to rebuild. “I assess homes to see if they're safe to live in after all of the damage,” said volunteer Steve Metcalph. “Several steps need to be taken to ensure that a house is safe and habitable after flooding. Cleaning out a home and making repairs after flood damage can be a tough, complex process. Roads, bridges, and highways were also damaged. Most of the highways and roads have reopened, but nearly one million homes are still awaiting clean-ups.”
1.Which of the following best describes Nebraska's situation in late March
A.Terrible. B.Changeable.
C.Pleasant. D.Effective.
2.What happened to Jeanie Goodhile's farm
A.Her efforts to save some animals were in vain.
B.The flood didn't kill any animal on the farm.
C.There was no volunteer to help save the farm.
D.She had no time to save the animals on the farm.
3.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.Survivors in the flood
B.A joint effort to save animals
C.The government's great contributions
D.Volunteers helping victims through flood

Stages of Hurricane: Simple Storms Grow
Into Giants
A storm progresses through four different stages before it is actually considered a hurricane. First is a tropical disturbance(热带扰动), which has thunderstorms and rotating(旋转的) winds. Next is a tropical depression(热带低气压), which is similar to a tropical disturbance, but has winds between 23 and 39 miles per hour. A tropical storm is the next level, which has stronger wind speeds between 40 and 73 miles per hour. Once winds reach 74 miles per hour the storm is officially called a hurricane. The wind picks up energy from the warm surface of ocean water.
As a hurricane crosses over land, it begins to become weaker or break apart and reduce in strength. This is because it is no longer over the warm ocean water that it needs for energy. At this point, a hurricane can still cause a lot of damage because of high winds, rain, and flooding. But unless it makes its way back over the open ocean, it is downgraded from a hurricane back to a tropical storm.
What's Your Name, Hurricane
Hurricanes and tropical storms are given names to help people recognize them. Scientists refer to hurricanes and storms by name as they track them across the ocean.
Before 1953, hurricanes were not given official names. From 1953 through 1978, hurricanes were only given female names, like Isabel, Camille, Claudette, and Wilma. Beginning in 1979, hurricanes were given the names of both women and men. Today, the names alternate male and female, and they are named in order of letters.
For example, in 2010, storms were named as follows: Alex(male), Bonnie(female), Colin (male), Danielle(female), Earl(male) and so on...
There are six different lists of names that change, so the same names are used every six years. The only way that a new name is added is when a hurricane has been particularly deadly or costly and the name is retired, then replaced with a new one.

A.It breaks apart and forms tornadoes.

D.It becomes less powerful.
5.The underlined word “alternate” in paragraph 4 means “ ”.

6.What do we know about the hurricanes
