Unit 4 Earthquakes课时作业Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2019·邯郸模拟C)Have you ever noticed tiny raised areas on the branches of a tree？These may have been insects.These small insects feed on tree sap(汁液)．Insects on urban trees are notably more abundant than those on rural trees.As a result，urban trees suffer from heavy infestations(害虫横行)，and are often unhealthy or die.To protect and restore urban trees' health，we need to determine the factors that make these tree pests more successful in urban habitats.Living organisms interact closely with their environment.The warmer，more drought －stressed trees harbor more successful pests than cooler，less drought－stressed trees.As cities and natural habitats become hotter and drier，damaging insects will become more abundant on urban trees.Trees within urban forests are valuable economically and for the environmental sustainability(可持续性)of the region.More than half of the world's population lives in cities.Across the globe，people are moving into cities at a faster rate than ever.Rapid growth may turn cities into places with harder conditions.Although cities are primarily made of buildings，roads，parking lots，and vehicles，there are still plants in them.The trees within a city are referred to as the urban forest.Urban forests offer very big benefits to human and environmental health.They improve air and water quality，provide habitat for wildlife，cool down temperatures and beautify our environment.They make cities livable.However，being a city tree is not easy.Heat released by human activities is trapped in cities.As a result，temperatures in urban areas are often warmer than their surrounding rural areas.We call this urban warming or the urban heat island effect.Urban habitats are mostly made of surfaces of asphalt(沥青)and concrete.These surfaces reduce the amount of rainwater that reaches tree roots.As a result，urban forests may suffer，which can negatively affect people and theenvironment.What can we do to restore urban forests？Regular irrigation when possible may help keep pest populations under control.Planting tree species that are suitable to handle heat and drought stress would also reduce the occurrence of insect pest outbreaks.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了城市中的森林使城市宜居，但是人类的活动对城市的树木产生了极大的影响，所以我们应该为保护城市树木采取行动。

What measures has the university taken to prepare for the storm?A．The university has asked students to leave the school at once.B．The university has asked students to close all the windows and doors.C．The university has sent text messages to students about what time the storm will come.D．The university has asked students to prepare necessary things in case of evacuation.3.

B．New York is a busy city at other times.C．Storm Sandy has already come. D．The airport system has been closed since last night.BOn Sept. 24, an earthquake struck the south-west of Pakistan, taking more than 300 people's lives and leaving hundreds of thousands homeless. But after the horrible disaster, people living by the coast received another shock—they saw a new island, which seemed to have appeared out of nowhere in the sea just over a kilometre from the shore, reported BBC News.“I stepped out and was flabbergasted，” local journalist Bahram Baloch told the BBC. “I could see this grey, dome-shaped (圆顶形的) body in the distance, like a giant whale swimming near the surface. Hundreds of people had gathered to watch it in disbelief.”This island has become a global curiosity. How was it formed in just a few minutes?As you might already know, many islands in the sea are formed by volcanoes. There are numerous volcanoes under the sea. As the hot lava erupts and cools down, it piles up and forms the shape of a mountain. When the mountain “grows” to higher than the sea level, the part that's above the water is what we call an “island”．This is how the island was formed after the Pakistan earthquake, except that instead of a regular volcano, it was a “mud volcano”that brought about this island. Lava is not the only thing that's locked under the earth's crust—there is also gas. When an earthquake happens and breaks part of the crust, the gas is released at an extremely high speed, pushing mud up to the surface, according to National Geographic.But only earthquakes that are extremely powerful can cause mud volcanoes to push up enough mud toproduce islands—and this 7.7magnitude earthquake in Pakistan was strong enough. The island is about 20 metres high, up to about 90 metres wide and 30 metres long, nearly the size of a soccer field.In fact, mud volcano islands aren't new. This is the fourth island of this kind in the region since 1945. But those islands usually didn't last long.“It will probably be gone within a couple of months，”said Bill Barnhart, a researcher with the US Geological Survey. After all, “It's just a big pile of mud that was on the seafloor that got pushed up.”5. What is the article mainly about?A．The disastrous effects of coastal earthquakes.B．The difference between mud volcanoes and regular volcanoes.C．How islands are formed by mud volcanoes.D．The great natural wonders of Pakistan.6. The underlined word “flabbergasted” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________”．A．surprised B．disappointed C．worried D．curious7. We can infer from the article that ________．A．the new island near the coast of Pakistan actually took a few months to formB．scientists still know little about different types of volcanoesC．another earthquake is likely to happen in Pakistan within a couple of monthsD．not all volcanoes change the geological appearance of the earthCSuppose you have everything: a good job, good health, good relationships and a lot of money to spend. But still there is something missing from your life. Guess what? The love. It is not something that you should ignore. Life without love is just like body without soul.Love gives meaning to life as without love life is meaningless. Lucky is the person who gets love and keeps the flames of love burning forever. It is not a matter of days or months. Love__is__for__life__and__life__is__for__love.It is easy to fall in love but difficult to keep the flames of love burning. Before having serious long-term love relationships, be sure that the person you love is also sincere with you. A selfish person can make your life terrible. If this is the case with you then try to get rid of that person as soon as possible.Most people do not give importance to their love life as they give importance to their professional life. This is a bad choice which ruins the whole life. A balance between the two is necessary in order to enjoy life in itsentirety. Do not lose the love you need.In order to make your life more exciting and enjoyable, you need a loving and caring person with whom you can share your values, dreams, joys and jokes. In difficult times of failure, pain, or loss of dear ones, this person should stand firm beside you and comfort you in every possible manner.Love your life and love the person who is in your life. Keep the flames of love burning to live a great life.8. What's the meaning of the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?A．Love is only for life. B．Life is designed only for love.C．Life is not separated from love. D．When you have a good life, you can own a real love.9. If you want to keep the flames of love burning, you should________．A．try to remove your bad manners as soon as possibleB．make certain that the person you love is also sincereC．try to find out whether the person you love really loves youD．make sure that you treat the person sincerely10. The writer wants to advise us________．A．to value everything one has B．to be sincere with the people aroundC．to live a life full of love all one's life D．to avoid being a selfish person第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Earthquakes李仕才【阅读理解】At present we spend a lot of time on our mobile devices these days and automakers have taken notes, rolling out connected cars that make it easy to do nearly everything from your phone.“We all enjoy those kinds of experiences where you want something and by the push of a button everything gets taken care of for you.You don’t have to go here and there and piece a bunch of things together by yourself. ”Ford recently introduced FordPass, a mobile platform that lets car owners access services like finding and paying for a parking spot.“Here’s the details of what charges will be in sign, and then I submit (点击接受), and then I receive a QRphoto allowing me entry access to that parking location. ”Over at Buick, the OnStar RemoteLink app connects owners to their cars no matter how faraway they are. “This car in Detroit, I could start from here in New York. Or let us say I have the only key to it and my wife in Detroit needs to get in the car, I can unlock it for her from here. ”The feature harnesses the car’s 4G LTE connectivity (连接性).

Unit 4 Earthquakes李仕才***阅读理解“Clothes Swapping” is an activity which has become increasingly popular among American women.At a clothes swap event the women can give away unwanted clothing and get something different in return.Recently about 300 women went to a clothes swap at a high school in Springfield，Virginia.It was the largest crowd ever for the area's popular clothingswapping group.Daphne Steinberg was having a good day.“For anyone who knows Ann Taylor LOFT，Ann Taylor is a really good women's designer and I will totally wear this to work.So I love that，and I love that I can equip myself for work，have a good time in doing it，and not totally bankrupt(使破产)myself.”Sandy Van Dusen likes the idea that clothes are finding new homes instead of being thro wn away.“Because it helps to keep the Earth green.There's no point in my opinion in continuing to buy new clothes when we can reuse what are already here.Give them a new home—let somebody else love what you used to love and no longer love.”Kim Pratt organized the clothes swap event in Springfield.She also organized a moneyraising activity for the high school's debate team.It is one of several ways that her group gives to charitable causes.Another is by donating all of the “unswapped” clothing to shelters for victims of domestic violence.“I started doing this four years ago, and we've been doing it for four years，getting bigger and bigger each time we have a swap.”She used the social media website to help publicize the events.The website has helped her group grow from 30 members to 1,300.Ms.Pratt says most of the members respect the clothing swap rules.But she says competition for desirable fashion can be strong.“We have to tell people sometimes not to hover(徘徊)over the new people coming in with their clothing.As they put it out，some people tend to grab the stuff right out of their hands and it becomes like a freeforall.We try to avoid that as much as possible.”1．Women can ________ at a clothes swap.A．exchange unwanted clothing for something differentB．buy whatever clothing they likeC．have a social gathering and make friendsD．make some money by giving away unwanted clothing2．We can learn from what Daphne Steinberg said that ________.A．she had been to a clothes swap for the first timeB．she experienced the largest clothes swap ever in the areaC．she got some clothes she likes at the clothes swapD．she saved much more money than she had expected3．What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A．What Kim Pratt did with the unswapped clothing.B．How Kim Pratt started the clothes swap event.C．What Kim Pratt did to help people in need.D．How Kim Pratt raised money to help charitable causes.4．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.A．clothes swaps are often out of control in the endB．inappropriate behavior at clothes swaps needs to be controlledC．clothes swapping is becoming increasingly popular with American women D．more clothes swap events need to be organized【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。
