3.D 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Asaresult,hesaid,itishardtosayifthewintertornadoeshavesomethingtodowithclimatechange.”可知,HaroldBrooks认为冬季龙卷风和气候变化之间是否有联系并不可知。4.C 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“However,asthewinter...willhappeninthewinterandfewerwillhappeninthesummer.”可知,JasonFurtado认为,以后在夏季,龙卷风将会发生得更少。【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲了在地震发生前如何做准备,地震发生时以及地震发生后应该采取什么措施。5.B 词义猜测题。根据第二段中“You’llneedfood,waterandsoon.”可知,你需要食物和水等来照顾好自己,由此可知,画线短语的意思是“照顾”。lookfor寻找;takecareof照顾;beproudof以……为自豪;thinkof考虑。故选B项。6.A 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Ifyou’reindoors,staythere.Getunderadeskortable.Thekitchenisaparticularlydangerousspot.”可知,地震发生时,要远离厨房。7.C 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Avoiddrivingifpossibletokeepthestreetsclearforemergencyvehicles.”可知,作者不建议在地震发生后开车是因为你应该给应急车辆让路。8.B 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Rememberthataftershocks,sometimeslargeenoughtocausedamageintheirownright,generallyfollowlargequakes.”可知,在大地震后将会有更多的余震发生。故选B项。【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章由1816年美国佛蒙特州夏季暴雪为切入点,介绍了在1815年4月5日,沉睡了几个世纪的坦博拉火山喷发了,成了当时人类历史上最致命、威力最大的火山爆发。9.C 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Itisonlynow,morethan200yearslater...avolcanocalledMountTambora.”,可知1816年夏天佛蒙特州下大雪的原因是一年前,一座遥远的火山爆发了。10.A 目的意图题。根据第一段中“Thecauseoftheextremeweather...calledMountTambora.”,并结合后文讲述了坦博拉火山的爆发及造成的伤害,可知第一段的目的是引出话题。11.C 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Ithadbeenasleepforcenturies,butonApril5,1815,Tamborawokeup.”,可知坦博拉山开始喷发的时间是1815年4月5日。12.D 段落大意题。根据文章最后一段可知,该段主要介绍坦博拉火山的爆发导致了一场可怕的灾难。
