2022-2023学年八年级英语上册单元话题拓展阅读Unit 8 Natural disastersAMany animals do strange things before an earthquake. This news may be important. Earthquakes can kill people and knock down homes. The animals may help to save lives.Some animals make a lot of noise before an earthquake. Farmers have told about this. Dogs that are usually quiet have started to bark(吠). Horses on farms have run around in circles. Mice have left their holes and run away. Cows have given less milk.In a town in Italy, cats raced down the street in a group. That happened only a few hours before an earthquake. In San Francisco, a man kept tiny pet frogs. One Sunday, the frogs jumped around more than ever. They made loud noises, like bigger frogs. That night, an earthquake struck the city.People want to know when an earthquake is coming. Then they could get away safely. Right now, there is no sure way to know ahead of time. Maybe the best idea is watching the animals.（1）This passage is mainly about _____.A．how animals act before an earthquakeB．how an earthquake startsC．how mice leave their homesD．how animals live every day（2）Before the earthquake in Italy, quiet dogs _____.A．ran away B．started to barkC．climbed trees D．jump into the water（3）Before the earthquake in Italy, the frogs _____.A．sang B．jumped into the waterC．died D．jumped around a lotBThe leaders （领导人）of 13 countries had a big meeting in St Petersburg, Russia from November 21 to 24, 2010.The meeting was about tigers. They talked about the ways to protect the animals in their countries. They agreed to spend more money protecting tigers and they wanted to double the number oftigers in the world before 2022.Tiger is one of the world's most endangered animals. The World Wildlife Fund （WWF）says, there are only about 100,000 wild tigers now. And the number is becoming smaller and smaller. 'If nothing happens, tigers will face disasters,' said WWF spokeswoman Marie von Zeipel.Nine types of tigers lived 100 years ago, but now at least three of them have died out. ‘If people leave tigers alone and don’t kill them, then the number of tigers will double in 10 years,’ said Jean-Christoph Vie, a French tiger expert (专家).China is one of the 13 countries where tigers live. There are about 50 wild tigers in China now. They are the Bengal tigers in Tibet, Indochinese tigers in China's southwest, and Siberian tigers in the northeast. The South China tigers lived in southeast China many years ago but disappeared in the 1970s. Many experts think they have already died out.（1）What's the meeting in St Petersburg mainly about?A．How to help tigers find a better place to live.B．How to protect tigers in their countries.C．How to stop people from hunting the wild animals.D．How to count the number of tigers in the world.（2）Which of the following is TRUE according to the WWF?A．Many tigers have died only because people hunt them.B．About 3,200 tigers have died in the past 100 years.C．There are more and more tigers these years.D．There are about 100,000 wild tigers in the world now.（3）In Jean-Christoph Vie's opinion, the best way to double the number of tigers in 10 years is__________.A．to do nothingB．to keep all of them in the zooC．to stop people from killing themD．to build more nature reserves for tigers（4）How many types of tigers were there in China 50 years ago?A．3B．4C．13D．50CMaybe 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?Stay inside. Close all the windows and stay away from them.Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes!Listen to the radio or TV for important information.If you're told to go to a safer place, do it right now.（1）This passage is most probably from .A．an advertisement of a typhoon B．a travel recordC．a weather report D．a science magazine（2）Typhoons often happen .A．in the hot season B．in the cold seasonC．only in China D．under the sea（3）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-c（4）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.（5）When a typhoon comes, we CANNOT .A．close all the windows B．listen to typhoon newsC．stay inside the strong house D．go outside to find a safer placeD根据短文回答问题What is a hurricane?You may already know that hurricanes are storms that can cause devastating(毁灭性的)waves, wind, and rain. They happen during “Hurricane Season,” which is from June 1st until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.Categories(类别)of HurricanesThere are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害)a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed, the more dangerous the storm is. For example, a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour, which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shorelines completely.Hurricane DangersWhen a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall, there can be a devastating flood. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. While most of a hurricane has dangerously strong winds, the eye is actually(事实上)a calm area in the storm. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that it's over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through.Hurricane Safety TipsThere is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction, so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane, be sure to remember the following safety tips.Be sure you have a radio, batteries, fresh drinking water, and enough food.Tell neighbours, friends, and family members your emergency plans. Tell them where you'll go if you need to leave your home.If you live near the ocean, leave your home and travel to a safe place. You could stay with a friend or a family member, in a hotel or in an emergency shelter area.Stay inside during the storm. You could be seriously injured (受伤) if you go outside.（1）When is Hurricane Season?___________________________________________（2）What are categories of hurricanes based on?___________________________________________（3）What is called the eye?___________________________________________（4）How many hurricane safety tips are mentioned(提到) in the passage?___________________________________________（5）What should you do most probably if a hurricane happens?（自拟一句话作答）___________________________________________EExtreme weather seems to be everywhere these days. It is sometimes related to climate change. Yet it can be hard to see the effect on people's lives. I began documenting that effect in 2007, when I pictured two floods that occurred within weeks of each other, one in the U.K. and the other in India. I was deeply shocked by the different effects of these floods and the damage that their victims seemed to share.Since then I have visited flood zones around the world. I travelled to many countries, like Australia, Thailand and Nigeria. In flooded places, life is suddenly turned upside down, and normal life is temporarily gone.Photos are the most important in my research. I often follow people as they return home through deep waters, and work with them to take a close look at their flooded homes. Though their poses may be conventional, their environment is changed. The change makes them upset. Often they're abouttheir circumstances or the improper response from the government. Many want their sufferings to be seen and want the world to know what has happened to them.I shoot on film with old Rolleiflex cameras. Digital would be easier, but the texture of film has a particular quality for me. The use of an old camera makes the situation more formal and serious.In many cultures, the flood is described as a destructive force in old stories. It makes humans feel powerless. As weather becomes more extreme, the story in the Bible(圣经) is becoming literal.（1）The key to the author's research is ______.A．countries B．deep waters C．photos D．flooded homes （2）Which word do you think should be put in the blank in Paragraph 3?A．angry B．excited C．anxious D．sad（3）The meaning of "texture" in the fourth paragraph is closest to _______.A．结构B．内容C．课本D．质地（4）In many legends of different countries, the flood is recorded as_______.A．a destroying power B．a phenomenon of extreme weatherC．a formal situation D．a unrealistic Bible storyFDust storms (沙尘暴) appear when strong wind blows sand and dirt from a dry surface. Strong dust storms may cause deaths, so you should know how to protect yourself from dust storms when you meet them.Be careful of dust storm warningsDust storms probably happen on hot summer days, and it's not safe for people to travel during this period. So you should listen to the local TV or radio before travelling, and consider changing or giving up your trip if dust storms are predicted (预测) .Be preparedIf you are in a place where storms happen often, carry a mask (面具) to keep dust and dirt away from your face, and a pair of glasses to protect your eyes.Stay insideDo not move around when a dust storm comes, as you will not be able to see hidden (隐藏的) dangers, So if you are in a house, don't go out and just stay inside.Protect yourself from flying objectsCover your body as much as possible in a dust storm. A strong wind of dust storms can carry heavy objects, so you should try to stay low, and close to the ground, and protect your head with your arms or a backpack.(1)What should you do before you travel according to the passage?A．Pack your backpack B．Bring some money with you.C．Listen to the local TV or radio.D．Tell your parents and friends.(2) We can learn from the passage thatA．it is safe to travel on hot summer daysB．people should stay inside when a dust storm comesC．a strong wind of dust storms can't carry heavy objectsD．a pair of glasses is enough when a dust storm happens(3) Which of the following may be needed when you meet a dust storm?A．A knife.B．A mask.C．A pair of glasses.D．B and C.(4) The underlined word "dirt" mentioned in the first paragraph means "______" in Chinese.A．烂泥B．砂砾C．丑闻D．尘土(5) What's the main idea of this passage?A．How to predict dust storms.B．How to reduce dust storms.C．How to protect yourself from dust storms.D．How dust storms form.GA long time ago, floods（洪水）often happened. The food buried（掩埋）the lands and broke the houses. People felt that they were living in danger every day.The flood really hurt a lot of people, so people began to think about how to solve this problem. At thattime, a man named Gun led people to control the food. All he did was to build the dam (坝) to keep the water out of villages.Nine years later, there were still floods. His son Yu went on controlling the flood. In order to control the flood, Yu didn't return home for thirteen years. In the past thirteen years, he ran everywhere, passing by his home three times. But he never walked into it to have a look. In his opinion, nothing was more important than what he was doing.Yu learned from the experience of Gun's and came up with a better way to control the flood. Together with many people, he dredged (疏浚) many rivers. So the flood could pass through the rivers and then go into the sea. The flood finally died down and people moved their homes back.(1)How did Gun control the floods?A．He led people to build dams.B．He ran to look for lands.C．He led people to move away.D．He repaired broken houses.(2) Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Yu continued Gun's work eight years later.B．Yu didn't return home for thirty years.C．Yu passed by his home three times a year.D．Yu found better ways to control floods.(3) From the passage we can know that __________ is the best way to control the flood.A．calling on people B．working with familyC．dredging rivers D．building some dams(4) What's the best title for the passage?A．A Story of Gun's Life B．A Story of Controlling FloodC．A Story of Yu's Father D．A Story of Moving a VillageHWhat is a tsunami (海啸) ? Tsunamis are often caused by earthquakes or volcanoes (火山) . The average speed (平均速度) of the waves (波浪) is 300 mph and the waves can last from five minutes to an hour.What to do in a tsunami?Firstly, when a strong earthquake is felt, leave the water at once, get to the shore (海岸) and go as far away as you can from the beach fast. If it allows, go to a higher ground.Secondly, turn on the TV for news and weather report. They will tell you more about the tsunami.Thirdly, get all members of your family together and let everyone know the tsunami is coming. Choose a place to stay together. Make sure the place is safe and as far away from the shore as possible. Bring emergency supplies (应急用品) when you have to leave your house.At last, if you find a huge wave is coming, climb onto the roof of your house or on the highest point of the nearest building. Hold on to anything that's strong enough. Climb a tree if you have to.For a tsunami, the only way to survive (幸免于) it is to be prepared.(1)When a tsunami comes, the waves will ________.A．go as quickly as 300 mphB．become stronger before the earthquakeC．cause heavy rainD．last shorter and shorter(2) How many suggestions are mentioned in this passage?A．Two.B．Three.C．Four.D．Five.(3) When a tsunami is coming, your family had better ________.A．go to the beach togetherB．stay in a safe place togetherC．stay in your houseD．put emergency supplies on a lower ground(4) We should do the following when a tsunami is coming EXCEPT ________.A．listening to the weather reportB．going to a low place to keep safeC．getting emergency supplies readyD．leaving the water as far away as you can(5) What's the best title of the passage?A．How to keep safe in the water B．What a tsunami isC．What to do after a tsunami D．How to survive a tsunami参考答案A【答案】（1）A（2）B（3）D【解析】短文大意：在地震发生之前，许多动物会有奇怪的举动，这条消息也许很重要。

Over 100,000 wildfires burn each year in America. Russia has 20,000 to 35,000 wildfires every year. Australia has on average 60,000 each year. These fires destroy（损害）huge areas of forests and burn hundreds of homes.Many experts believe there are several reasons for this sudden increase in fires. The first reason is climate（气候）change. Recent weather has been warmer and drier. This leads to dangerous fire conditions. When lightening strikes（发生雷电），dry grass easily catches fire. Hot winds add to the problem. The wind spreads a fire quickly. In 2010, Russia had the hottest and driest summer in a century. In just one month, 500 fires destroyed over 2,000 homes. Some people lost their lives.Traditional fire-fighting practices are another reason for the increase in fires. In America, firefighters used to quickly put out every fire. They didn’t allow the grass and trees to burn. As a result, today many forests have thicker vegetation（植被）.Thicker vegetation means more fuel（燃料）for fires. Also, without fires from time to time, forests become overcrowded and unhealthy. Some trees are dead. The dead wood then easily catches fire. So surprisingly, America has many more fires today partly because of its past fire-fighting practices.Scientists now understand that a fire can be a natural part of a healthy forest. As a result, countries like Australia allow more fires to burn naturally. Sometimes, fire fighters even start fires to get rid of（去除）dead wood. Of course, they carefully control the fires. The fire thins out old trees. This allows sunlight to reach the ground. As a result, fires help new trees to grow. Therefore, if a fire is not a serious threat（威胁）to people, firefighters may let it burn naturally.1. Why did Russia have so many fires in one month in 2010?A. Because lightening spread the fire.B. Because there was much fuel for fires.C. Because there were not enough firefighters.D. Because it was unusually hot, dry and windy.2. What happens because of the traditional fire-fighting practices in the USA?A. There are fewer wildfires.B. Trees and grass become thicker.C. The weather becomes warmer and drier.D. Sunlight reaches the ground to help forests.3. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?A. Fires are serious threats to human beings.B. Australian firefighters don’t put out fires.C. Fires can play an important role I forests.D. It’s difficult for firefighters to control the fires.4. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Not all the fires in the forests must be put out.B. People’s carelessness leads to dangerous fires.C. Australia allows all the fires to burn naturally.D. There are more fires in Russia than in the USA.七、书面表达根据以下提示，描述你所看到的一次沙尘暴(sandstorm)。
