They may start because of sudden temperature changes. They really bring much trouble to people’s daily life and work. When they come, the sky will turn yellow. The wind is very strong with lots of sand. People have to wear face masks if they go out. Many schools even have to be closed and planes can’t land safely. Some local governments even ask people to stay indoors as much as possible, especially the elderly and children. They say the weather pollution is bad for their health.In fact, most of the sandstorms happen because of people. Farmers feed too many sheep. That makes the grassland less. Can people change the state? Yes, there are some ways to prevent the sandstorm from happening. But first of all we should take good care of our earth and try our best to protect it, not only for ourselves. Both China and the other countries are looking forward to the clean sky and clean air.参考答案单项选择BCABB BCBDC BCCDC CCBBB CA句型转换1.was looking2.what may3.Stay/Keep away4.broke down because of5.while6.is very important7.cried was watching TV8.drawing when started9.in fear10.lost his life11.What’s like How is12.were swimming动词填空1.to stop2. was discussing3. screaming4. hit5.Was, making6. was mopping7. was listening8. caused9. is going to be 10. shook11.was watching12.to protect 13.to keep14.standing15.was chatting16.left拓展阅读1.suddenly2.trouble3.cover4.safe5.happening。

Tornado struck
Something terrible happened on the morning of 24 April. It was something that no one ever thought could take place in this city.
Down from the sky came a dark funnel-like cloud. It reached to the ground. This was a tornado-a wind that goes round and round, sometimes as fast as five hundred miles an hour. It picked up everything in its path: trees, cars, houses, and even people. On and on it moved, right through a part of the city where many people lived.
Hint 4

destroying the crops
making people leave home
flood

always coming with strong wind
Hint 2

Hint 3
