海啸阅读题目及答案
海啸阅读题目及答案海啸阅读题目及答案篇一：海啸阅读答案.根据文意①去年的一场大海啸，让人们谈海啸色变。
对海啸，好多人都想知道个究竟。
②海啸是由大规模的海水运动而产生的一系列具有极强破坏力的巨大海浪。
这种海水运动引发的惊涛骇浪，波高可达数十米，其转移速度可快至每小时800公里。
这么高的前赴后继的层层水墙，内含极大的能量，冲上陆地后所向披靡，对生命和财产可造成严重危害。
去年印度洋大海啸在泰国沿岸把一艘50吨重的船从海边推到岸上1.2公里远的地方；1960年智利大海啸形成的汹涌波涛，移动了上万公里，到达日本后还造成了一定危害。
从有关数据来看，海啸高达2米，木制的房屋会瞬间遭到破坏；海啸高达20米以上，钢筋水泥建筑也难以招架。
③凡是能引起海水置换或转移的因素都可能引起海啸，如：地震活动、海底山崩、火山爆发以及宇宙的影响等。
④海啸通常是由震源在海底下50公里以内、里氏6.5级以上的海底地震产生的振荡波引起的。
在震动之后，振荡波在海面以不断扩大的圆圈，传播到很远地方，这就像丢颗石子到水中，涟漪由内向外扩散一样，所以海啸不是单一的巨大波浪，而是一批具有很长波长的海浪。
13．请细读选文，概括出海啸的特征。
（2分）答：14．第②段划线句主要运用哪两种说明方法?有什么作用?(2分) 答：15．第④段中，加点词语通常能不能删去，为什么？(2分)答：参考答案：13．波浪大、速度快、传播远、能量大(破坏力强)(共2分，每2点1分)14．举例子、列数字，具体说明（海啸能量大，）造成的危害严重(2分)15．不能，通常表明这只是一般情况（不排除特殊情况，或说明除了地震之外还有其他因素可以引起海啸），体现说明文语准确性。
(2分)篇二：海啸阅读答案.根据文意①去年的一场大海啸，让人们谈“海啸”色变。
对海啸，好多人都想知道个究竟。
②海啸是由大规模的海水运动而产生的一系列具有极强破坏力的巨大海浪。
这种海水运动引发的惊涛骇浪，波高可达数十米，其转移速度可快至每小时800 公里。

Another, less discussed issue, is the degree to which many local officials in the disaster zone were victims themselves.自去年四川地震以来，一个反复出现的主题是关于政*官员的腐败，以及因之产生的未达标学校的倒塌，导致仍不知确切数字的孩子们的死亡。

根据短文内容，判断下列句子的正误。
When we feel the ground moves suddenly, it means that an earthquake may come. Many of the earthquakes first come under the sea and then happen anywhere on the earth. Especially they often happen near the mountains and seas such as Wenchuan, Japan and Indonesia.When an earthquake happens, it's very easy to cause a tsunami (海啸). Houses fall down, many people are injured and even died.Now scientists are trying their best to study earthquakes. They make maps to show t he “earthquake belts (地震带)”. So the houses there must be quite strong.We believe that scientists will be able to tell us when and where an earthquake will happen in the near future. Also, they can tell us what to do and how to do. People can even use earthquakes to do something for us humans.（1）Earthquakes often happen in Japan.（2）Sometimes an earthquake happens with a tsunami.（3）Many people lost their lives in the earthquakes because they didn't help each other.（4）In areas in the “earthquake belts”, people build strong houses. （5）Scientists can prevent earthquakes happening.【答案】（1）right（2）right（3）wrong（4）right（5）wrong【解析】短文介绍了地震方面的常识。

必修一Unit 4 EarthquakesⅠ.阅读理解A(2024·成都市中学毕业班三诊) “Like a monster, it destroys everything.” That's how one school girl described a tsunami (海啸)．On Dec. 26, 2004, a magnitude-9.1 earthquake in Indonesia set off a massive tsunami. It killed more than 290,000 people across a dozen countries and cost an estimated $10 billion in damage.Nov. 5 is World Tsunami Awareness Day and at the United Nations, disaster risk reduction was high on the agenda.“What I can tell you is that the tsunami wave cannot be stopped，” said Bulgarians U. N. Ambassador Georgi Velikov Panayotov. He was on vacation in Thailand in 2004 and survived the tsunami. “What we can do is build early warning systems and, of course, educate the population about the damaging power of the tsunami wave，” he said.On March 11, 2011, a magnitude-9 earthquake rocked northeastern Japan triggering a fierce tsunami that also damaged the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, south of Sendai.“When the big earthquake hit Japan in 2011, people thought that we were pr epared for it，” said Japan's U. N. Ambassador Koro Bessho. “It caused severe damage. We had dams; we had drills. However, we had been counting on something that hits every 100 years and the earthquake was of the size of possibly every 500 years or thousand years，” he said.These two events sent the countries of the region into overdrive to review and improve disaster preparedness. In 2015 the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction was born. It aims to help create a better understanding of disaster risk and improve preparedness for an effective response.Indonesia is made up of thousands of islands which are disaster-prone (灾难频发的). Willem Rampangilei, head of Indonesia National Board for Disaster Management, said his government now has plans for every disaster-prone city.Countries at risk are also expanding their education programs. Children from an early age are taught how to react in case of a tsunami and then go with theirclassmates to higher ground away from coastal areas to avoid the walls of water the tsunami triggers.文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文。

May I sit and talk with you for a moment?”“Of course, please sit down，” Sue said. Jack sat down next to Sue on the bench, and they talked quietly together.

He's strong and healthy.”“And hungry/’ Jack said. “He hasn't taken his eyes off you. He thinks you’ve got some food for him”'That's true,” Sue said. “But I haven't.”They both laughed and then Jack said, "Does your dog bite (咬）？”“No，”Sue said, “ He's never bitten anyone. He's always gentle and friendly.”Hearing this, Jack decided to hold out his hand and touched (触摸）the animal's head.

Then the father explained (解释), “People call this Echo, but really this is life. It gives you back everything you say or do. Our life is just a reflection(反映)of what we have done.

It is reported that over 35 million Americans have physical, mental, or other disabilities. About half of these disabilities ar e “developmental", that is to say, they happen before people’s twenty-second birthday, often from born conditions, and are hard enough to affect three or more areas of development, such as movement, communication, occupation, etc. Most other disabilities are considered “adventitious" (偶然的), i.e., accidental or caused by outside forces. Before the 20th century, only a small percentage of people with disabilities survived for long. Medical treatment for these disabilities was unavailable. Improvements in medicine and social services have created a climate in which people with disabilities can expect to have such basic (基本的) needs as food, shelter, and medical treatment. Unluckily, these basics are often not available. Human rights such as the right to vote, marry, get an education, and achieve work have traditionally been not agreed on the basis of disability.In recent ten years, the disability rights movement has been organized to fight against these disagreements of human rights. Congress(国会) replied by passing important laws recognizing(承认) people with disabilities as a protected groupunder human rights laws.It is reported that more than half of qualified(有资格的) Americans with disabilities don’t have work, and a lot of those who do work are out of work. About two-thirds live at or below the official lowest level.Obvious difficulties, especially in communication and public awareness(意识), prevent disabled people from taking part in society. For example, while no longer stopped by law from marrying, a person unable to communicate is excluded(排斥) from society and social activities which might lead to the development of long-term relationships.Only when public attitudes(态度) advance as far as laws have, disabled people will be fully able to take their rightful place in society.11．. A “developmental" disability ______.A. is caused by forcesB. happens in youth and affects developmentC. develops very slowly over timeD. is getting harder and harder12．Most disabled people used to die early because ______.A. they were not very well looked afterB. disabilities destroyed body functions terriblyC. they were too poor to get right treatmentD. medical treatment were not available13．The sentence “Still today, people with disabilities must fig ht to live their lives freely.” should be placed at the beginning of Paragraph _________.A. OneB. TwoC. ThreeD. Four14．Which of the following cannot be inferred（推断）from the passage ?A. The public tend to(倾向) look down on the disabled people.B. Many disabled people may remain single(保持单身) for their whole life.C. The disabled people feel inferior(不及) to those common people.D. Discriminatory(歧视性) laws prevent the disabled from mixing with others. 15． The best title for this passage might be ______.A．The Causes for DisabilitiesB．Medical Treatments for DisabilitiesC．The physical difficulties of the DisabledD．Disadvantages of People with DisabilitiesThe weather is getting warmer and warmer. It is fun to play outside, but people are afraid to play outside these days, because of the H7N9 virus. The H7N9 virus is one type of influenza A H7 viruses. It is a new type of bird flu. Influenza A H7 viruses mainly affectbirds but sometimes they can also affect humans. Most people infected with H7N9 virus look like they had a common flu. They had a fever, a cough and shortness of breath. Some had bad pneumonia. This March, H7N9 virus hit Shanghai, Anhui, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Up until April 11th, the number of people infected had reached 35. Nine of these people died.But don’t be afraid , some cases are curable. A 4-year-old boy in Shanghai and a 67-year-old man in Hangzhou got the virus, and they are getting better. Besides, it's not easy to be infected by the H7N9 virus.There are some ways to save ourselves from this. First, wash your hands withsoap and running water before you eat and after you use the toilet. You should do the same after you touch animals or animal waste. Second, cover your nose and mouth with your elbow when coughing. Third, you should have a good rest and do some exercises, so your body can become strong enough to beat the virus. 16．How’s the weather during these days?A .cold B. warm C. hot D. cool17．How many people have been infected H7N9 until April 11th?A .35 B. 25 C. 45 D. 3018．Which place didn’t find H7N9 in March?A .

Some of the H7N9 cases are curable.D. Most people infected with H7N9 virus look like they had a common flu. 20．How can we save ourselves from the H7N9 virus?A. Wash your hands before you eat and after you use the toilet, touch animals or animals waste.B. Cover your nose and mouth with your elbow when coughing.C.

The quake -- the most powerful to hit Japan in more than 100 years -- caused massive damage and many people are missing and feared dead.The 8.9 magnitude quake struck Friday(March 11) off Japan's eastern coast, and prompted(引发) tsunami warnings（海啸警报）across the Pacific as far away as South America and the U.S. West Coast. Several days after a 8.9-magnitude earthquake and resulting 10-meter-high tsunami devastated the coastline. The United States Geological Survey says it was the fifth largest earthquake since 1900. The largest, with a 9.5 magnitude, shook Chile(智利) in 1960.In Japan, the tsunami swept away boats, cars and hundreds of houses in coastal areas north of Tokyo. The quake shook buildings in the Japanese capital and caused several fires. All train and subway traffic in Tokyo has been stopped, and thousands of people there were unable to get back home. People are just trying to find clean water. Food supplies are running out. In the convenience stores, there are no rice balls left. There is no bottled water left. People are facing a really serious situation in the days ahead for these people that are living in areas that were only moderately（普通的） damaged. The final death toll could range from the thousands to tens of thousands, depending on how many of these communities are gone.Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan said the government would do everything it can to minimize（使降到最低） the effects of the disaster. And in Washington, President Obama said the United States is ready to help the people of Japan. 21．The underline word damage means_____________ in the article.A. illnessB. disasterC. terrorD. danger22． Which is true according to the passage?A.

日本海啸-2
Thousands of people have been killed in a massive(大规模的) earthquake in Japan. The quake -- the most powerful to hit Japan in more than 100 years -- caused massive damage and many people are missing and feared dead.
The 8.9 magnitude quake struck Friday(March 11) off Japan's eastern coast, and prompted(引发) tsunami warnings（海啸警报）across the Pacific as far away as South America and the U.S. West Coast. Several days after a 8.9-magnitude earthquake and resulting 10-meter-high tsunami devastated the coastline. The United States Geological Survey says it was the fifth largest earthquake since 1900. The largest, with a 9.5 magnitude, shook Chile(智利) in 1960.
In Japan, the tsunami swept away boats, cars and hundreds of houses in coastal areas north of Tokyo. The quake shook buildings in the Japanese capital and caused several fires. All train and subway traffic in Tokyo has been stopped, and thousands of people there were unable to get back home. People are just trying to find clean water. Food supplies are running out. In the convenience stores, there are no rice balls left. There is no bottled water left. People are facing a really serious situation in the days ahead for these people that are living in areas that were only moderately（普通的） damaged. The final death toll could range from the thousands to tens of thousands, depending on how many of these communities are gone.
Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan said the government would do everything it can to minimize（使降到最低） the effects of the disaster. And in Washington, President Obama said the United States is ready to help the people of Japan.
