Unit 5 The power of nature课时跟踪练（一）Warming Up &Reading-Pre readingⅠ.阅读理解AThe US government has recently helped people learn more about the dangers of earthquakes by publishing a map. This map shows the chances of an earthquake in each part of the country. The areas of the map where earthquakes are most likely to occur are called earthquake belts. The government is spending a great deal of money and is working hard to help to discover the answers to these twoquestions：Can we predict earthquakes?Can we control earthquakes?To answer the first question, scientists are lookingvery closely at the most active fault (断层) systems in the country, such as the San Andreas fault in California. A fault is a break between two sections of the earth's surface. These breaks between sections are the places where earthquakes occur. Scientists look at the faults for changes which might show that an earthquake was about to occur. But it will probably be many years before we can predict earthquakes correctly. And the control of earthquakes is even farther away.However, there have been some interesting developments in the field of controlling earthquakes. The most interesting development concerns the Rocky Mountain Arsenal earthquakes. Here water was put into a layer of rocks 4,000 metres below the surface of the ground. Shortly after this injection (注射) of water, there was a small number of earthquakes. Scientists have decided that the water which was injected into the rocks worked like oil on each other.When the water “oiled” the fault, the fault became slippery and the energy of an earthquake was given out. Scientists are still experimenting at the site of these earthquakes. They have realized that there is a connection between the injection of the water and the earthquake activity. They have suggested that it might be possible to use this knowledge to prevent very big, dangerous earthquakes, that is, scientists could inject some kind of fluid like water into faults and change one big earthquake into a number of small, harmless earthquakes.语篇解读：为了提高人们对地震的防范意识，美国政府加大了在防震、预测方面的投入，他们甚至在努力采取措施控制地震的发生。
1．Earthquakes belts are ________.A．maps that show where earthquakes are likely to occurB．zones with a high probability of earthquakesC．breaks between two sections of the earth's surfaceD．the two layers of earth along a fault解析：选B 细节理解题。
根据第一段的第三句可知，地震多发地带被称为earthquake belts。
2．The San Andreas fault is ________.A．an active fault systemB．a place where earthquakes have been predicted correctlyC．a place where earthquakes have been controlledD．at the foot of the Rocky Mountain解析：选A 细节理解题。
根据第二段可知，该地区为地震比较活跃的地区。
3．What did scientists learn about earthquakes at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal?A．They occur at about 4,000 metres below ground level.B．The injection of water into earthquake faults prevents earthquakes from occurring.C．They are usually caused by the oil in the faults.D．Harmful earthquakes could be prevented by causing harmless earthquakes.解析：选D 细节理解题。
根据最后一段尾句可知。
4．What can be said about the experiments at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal?A．They have no practical value in earthquake prevention.B．They may have practical value in earthquake prevention.C．They are certain to have practical value in earthquake prevention.D．Nothing is told about their practical value in earthquake prevention.解析：选B 推理判断题。
根据科学家的试验，通过向断裂带注水可以引发小地震，从而使地震的能量得到释放，因此也就降低了大地震爆发的可能。
BThere are over 500 known active volcanoes in the world and thousands of extinct volcanoes. Volcanoes are found on every continent except Australia. There are about 80 active volcanoes under the oceans. Volcanoes are both terrifying and fascinating. In order to understand why volcanic eruptions happen, it is necessary to know some things about how the Earth is made.The part of the Earth we live on is an 18milethick layer of solid rock called the crust. Beneath the crust is a layer called the mantle (地幔), it is hot enough to melt some of the rock, creating magma (岩浆).When the magma finds cracks in the Earth's crust, it rises up. Gas bubbles (气泡) inside the magma grow bigger and try to escape as the molten rock gets closer to the Earth's surface. When the gas bubbles can't be held back any longer, the volcano erupts. Imagine shaking a soda bottle until the gas inside blows the cap off, and you can understand something of how a volcano erupts. If the magma is runny, and the gas can escape easily, the eruption is gentle. But if the magma is thick, the gas has to build up more pressure to escape. Then the eruption is explosive.When a volcano erupts, the molten rock that flows from it is called lava. The lava may run for some distance, or it may pile up near the volcano, making the mountain larger.During an explosive eruption, pieces of rock are thrown from the volcano. Scientists call these pyroclasts (火山碎屑). The smallest pyroclasts are called ash. Ash is often thrown into the atmosphere by the force of the eruption. Larger rocks, about walnut (胡桃) size, are called lapilli, Italian for “little stones”. The largest pyroclasts are called blocks if they are solid, or bombs if they are molten.Volcanoes have been a major force in the formation of our planet for thousands and thousands of years. Today geologists continually observe active volcanoes for signs of eruption. Using modern instruments, they are usually able to issue a warning before the volcano erupts.语篇解读：本文向我们介绍了火山的一些基本知识。

Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the oceanand hear the wave from her house. ＂It’s the ocean that makes Rockawayso special,＂ she says.On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night,Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hitespecially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklynshortly before the city’s bridge closed.When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.＂My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,＂ Natalie says. ＂but I can always choose how I deal with it.＂Natalie’s choice was to help.She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to help. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.Today, the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. ＂I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,＂ Natalie declares. ＂My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than before.＂1. When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane, she found _________.A. some friends had lost their livesB. her neighborhood was destroyedC. her school had moved to BrooklynD. the elderly were free from suffering2. According to paragraph4,who inspired Natalie most?A. The people helping Rockaway rebuild.B. The people trapped in high-rise building.C. The volunteers donating money to survivors.D. Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people.3. How did Natalie help the survivors?A. She gave her toys to the kids.B. She took care of younger children.C. She called on the White House to help.D. She built an information sharing platform.4. What does the story intend to tell us?A. Little people can make a big difference.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C. East or West, home is best.D. Technology is power.BThere exist cruel wars, fighting and sadness in the world today, so it’s not only necessary, but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us go through difficult times in our lives. Putting a smile on someone’s face when you know they are feeling depressed, as the saying goes, makes me feel good and warmsmy heart.How would you feel if you could not joke around with wife, husband, child, co-worker, neighbor, close friend, or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your corner store? I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I don’t know the person I’m joking around with. My Grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine. This not only relieves stress in any situation, but also is a common manner to speak to others that are around you.z.x.xkI know of a few people that don’t have a funny bone in their bodies, as they say. Everyone around them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their faces. They don’t get the joke that makes others laugh. I am busting a gut while they just sit there, looking at me as if I were from outer space. How can people not get a really funny joke?Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control. Without humor, we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems, or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy. There is too much sadness and bring a little light into our lives.Therefore, I believe our best medicine is to get together and tell some jokes and have some fun laughing together.5. According to the passage, humor is necessary and essential because ______.A. it can pick up people’s spiritB. it can help people get on well with othersC. it can help get rid of the cruelty in the worldD. it makes people more confident6. The author answers the questioning the second paragraph with _______.A. facts and descriptionsB. evidence and argumentC. examples and conclusionD. stories and persuasion7. The underlined phrase “busting a gut” in the third paragraph can replaced by ________.A. keeping silentB. speaking loudC. laughing hardD. explaining carefully8. In writing the passage, the author mainly intends to ________.A. talk about his own understanding of humorB. encourage people to be humorous in daily lifeC. introduce a practical way to get through daily lifeD. convince people of the power of being optimistic about life9. What is the author’s attitude towards the present world?A. IndifferentB. PositiveC. SatisfiedD. CriticalⅢ. 七选五型阅读理解What is the easiest way to stay warm in the super cold? 1 . At least that is what Santa Claus told me. During Christmas, Dennis and I went to Finland. We brought back some tips for keeping warm in a cold temperature.●There layers(层)work wonders.Start with the base layer, which sits right on your skin: choose something that can absorb sweat. 2 . A sweater is a good choice. The most important layer is the outer clothes, which should be waterproof(防水的)and windproof.● 3 .You lose heat from every millimeter of uncovered skin, which was the biggest lesson I learned on this trip. My whole body was well covered. But I missed one sport: my face. So it often felt like the wind was going to blow my nose off.●Exercise, don’t just stand still.When it’s cold, exercising may be the last thing you feel like doing, but be smart. 4 , and you will feel the difference. When we first got to Finland, we were freezing. But after a couple of minutes jumping around, we felt less cold.● If you have a heaterYou may want to turn it all the way up, but it’s best to keep it at between 18 and 20 degrees. 5 , but not create a huge difference between inside and outside.A. Grow a crazy beard.B. The key is what your layer isC. Cover every bit of your skinD. That will keep you comfortableE. Take a walk, faster than your normal speedF. Don’t forget to keep your hands and feet warm, tooG. The middle layer keeps your body heat from getting awayⅣ. 短文改错假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

闪堕市安歇阳光实验学校Unit 5 The power of natureⅠ阅读理解A(2019·烟台诊断)Grandparents who help out occasionallywith childcare in their community tend to live longer thanseniors who do not care for other people, according to astudy from Berlin, Germany.“Having no contact with grandchildren at all can negatively impact grandparents’ health. This link could be deeply rooted in our evolutionary past when help with childcare was important for the survival of the human species，” said Sonja Hilbrand, one of the researchers.The findings are drawn from data on more than 500 people over age 70. Overall, after accounting for grandparents’ age and general state of health, the risk of dying over a 20year period was onethird lower for grandparents who cared for their grandchildren，compared with grandparents who provided no childcare.Caregiving was associated with a longer life even when the care receiver wasn’t relative. Half of all childless seniors who provided support to friends or neighbors lived for seven years after the study began, while nonhelpers lived for four years on average.“Caregiving may give caregivers a purpose of life because they may feel useful for others and society. Caregiving may be thought also as an activity that keeps caregivers physically and mentally active，” said Professor Bruno Arpino.Arpino noted, however, that caregiving is not the only activity that can improve health and that too many caring responsibilities can take away from other beneficial activities like working, being in social clubs, or volunteering.“Children should take__into__account their parents’needs, willingness, and desires and agree with them on the timing and amount of childcare，” he suggested.“It is very important that every individual decides forhimself/herself, what ‘proper amounts o f help’ means，” Hilbrand said, adding, “As long as you do not feel stressed about the intensity(强度) of help you provide you may be doing something good for others as well as for yourself.”【解题导语】德国柏林一项研究发现，祖父母适当地帮忙照顾孙辈比不照顾孙辈的老年人寿命长。

It may cause great damage. So it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.Fragile items, like those made of glass should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them on cupboards higher up. Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. When there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly and on you.There is a strong chance of short circuits (短路) and fire breakouts during an earthquake. Make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.During an earthquake, lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases at all times.If you are outdoors, do not take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.If trapped in debris (瓦砾堆), cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if one is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself. Do not move about or kick up dust.1．The purpose of the passage is to tell readers ________.A．the damage caused by earthquakesB．the rescue work after earthquakesC．what to do about earthquakesD．how to prevent earthquakes2．The underlined word “Fragile” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.A．easily broken B．easily foundC．expensive D．heavy3．To reduce the injury from the earthquake, items made of glass should be put ________.A．on cupboardsB．in the bedroomC．on a lower surfaceD．where children can’t reach them4．During the earthquake, people are advised to ________.A．go out the building at onceB．turn off power and gas immediatelyC．take shelter under a treeD．drive to a safe place5．What should people NOT do when they are trapped in debris?A．Cover their mouth with a handkerchief.B．Tap on a pipe or wall for help.C．Use a whistle for help.D．Light a fire for help.BCheck out our tsunami facts and learn some interesting information related to these great walls of water that can cause so much destruction. Find out what causes tsunamis and read about some recent examples of tsunamis that have occurred around the globe.·The Japanese word for tsunami means harbor wave.·Tsunamis are sometimes referred to as tidal (受潮汐影响的) waves but this term has fallen out of favour because tsunamis are not related to tides.·Tsunamis are huge waves of water that are usually caused by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.·As a tsunami approaches the shore (海岸), water may move back from the coast. If it is shallow (浅的) enough the water may be pulled back hundreds of metres. If you are in the area, you can know that a tsunami is on the way when you see this phenomenon.·Regions in tsunami danger zones often have warning systems in place to give people as much time as possible to move to a safe place.·When tsunamis hit shallow water (often near the coast) they slow down but increase in height.·An earthquake in the Indian Ocean off Indonesia in December 2004 caused a tsunami that killed over 200,000 people in 14 countries.·In March 2011, the Tohoku earthquake off the eastern coast of Japan caused a tsunami that was a major factor in the death of over 15, 000 people.·The tsunami waves created by the Tohoku earthquake reached heights of over 40 metres in some areas, wiping out coastal towns and causing a number of nuclear accidents.6．How many causes of tsunamis are mentioned in the text?A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four.7．In the Tohoku earthquake over 15,000 people died mainly because of ________.A．the earthquake itselfB．the lack of warning systemsC．the tsunami caused by the earthquakeD．the nuclear accidents caused by the tsunami8．What do we learn from the text?A．The Japanese invented the term “tidal waves”．B．The term “tidal waves” is used more often than tsunami.C．When tsunamis slow down, their waves can reach 40 metres.D．When hitting shallow water, tsunamis will rise higher.9．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Over 200,000 people were killed in 14 countries because of the earthquake in Dec.2004.B．Sometimes tsunamis are said as tidal waves，because they are related to tides.C．The warning systems in some regions help people move to a safe place.D．If you see water move to the coast, there will be a tsunami on the way.10．The text is developed mainly by ________.A．listing some factsB．giving some examplesC．providing some numbersD．making some comparisonsⅣ. 短文改错Dear John，I’m so grateful that you’re coming to see my father in 10：00 a. m. on Sunday.
