Two days after the May 12,2008 quake, Zhang put a posting on the Internet, calling on all Tangshan orphans to step up to help.Hundreds of people have since answered his call with cash donations and offers of foster（领养）care.Liu Yuanping, a government employee in Tangshan, said he wanted to pass on a message to all quake orphans in Sichuan.“Be strong and be brave. Youll all grow up like everyone else.”In Lijiang in Yunnan Province, south of Sichuan, orphans donated a total of 15,174 yuan ($2,200). “We hope the orphaned children in the earthquake can have a warm Childrens Day on June 1, ” 16yearold schoolgirl Xiao Yun, who together with her schoolmates was orphaned by the 7.0magnitude strength quake that destroyed Lijiang in 1996, said.1. It can be inferred from the passage that_.A. 300 children donate a years pocket moneyB. Victims of the earthquake in Sichuan are well cared forC. Chinas former earthquake orphans reach out to Sichuan earthquake victimsD. Victims of the earthquake in Sichuan find new homes2. The underlined word “flattened” in Paragraph 3 means “_”.

About 300,000 people lost their lives in the earthquake in Tangshan.C.Zhang Youlu survived the Tangshan earthquake after being protected by his parents.D. Xiao Yun is not the only child who was orphaned by the quake in Lijiang in her class.4. It is implied in the passage that_.A. many employees of Tangshan government have also donated moneyB. many of the Sichuan orphans have been adopted by the Tangshan orphansC. the Sichuan earthquake was much more serious than the Tangshan earthquakeD. Zhangs posting on the Internet was well received by the Tangshan orphansBAnimals and EarthquakesScientists who try to predict earthquakes have got some new helpers recentlyanimals.Scientists have begun to catch on to what farmers have known for thousands of years. Animals often seem to know in advance that an earthquake is coming, and they show their fear by acting in strange ways. Before a Chinese quake in 1975 snakes awoke from their winter sleep early only to freeze to death in the cold air. Cows broke their halters（缰绳）and tried to escape. Chickens refused to enter their coops. All of this unusual behavior, as well as physical changes in Earth, alerted Chinese scientists to the coming quake. They moved people away from the dangerous area and saved thousands of lives.One task for scientists today is to learn exactly which types of animals behavior predicts quakes. Its not an easy job. First of all, not every animal can react to the danger of an earthquake. Just before a California quake in 1977, for example, an Arabian horse became very nervous and tried to break out of his stall. The horse next to it, however, reminded perfectly calm. Its also difficult at times to tell the difference between normal animals restless and “earthquake nerves”. A zoo keeper once called earthquake researchers to say that his cougar（美洲狮）had been acting strangely. It turned out that the cat had an upset stomach!A second task for scientists is to find out exactly what kind of warnings the animals receive. They know that animals sense far more of the world than humans do. Many animals can see, hear, and smell things that people do not even notice. Some can detect tiny changes in air pressure, gravity, or the magnetism（磁力）of Earth. This extra sense probably helps animals predict quakes.5. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Animals dont know when an earthquake is coming.B. Animals can predict earthquakes.C. The author doesnt know whether the animals can feel the coming of an earthquake or not.D. Human beings have to move the animals away before an earthquake is coming.6. Some animals could predict earthquakes because they can detect tiny changes_.A. in the air pressureB. in gravityC. in the magnetism of the earthD. all of the above7. How do all the animals exactly know when an earthquake is coming?A. By their extra senses.B. By the changes in air pressure, gravity or the magnetism.C. People dont know exactly.D. The passage doesnt mention it.8. The authors purpose is mainly to_.A. express an argumentB. make a serious proposalC. present a discoveryD. express suspicionsCNatures anger made life miserable from one end of the United States to the other this week, with people forced out of their homes by wildfires near both coasts and the Canadian border and by major flooding in the Midwest.And although the calendar still said spring, the first named storm of the year was whipping up surf on the beaches of the Southeast. Overall, it wasnt quite a week for the record books.“Its a major flood,” National Weather Service meteorologist（气象学家）Suzanne Fortin said of the flood in Missouri.“It wont be a record breaker, but it will be in the top three.”However, a threeweekold fire in southern Georgia had become that states biggest in five decades after burning 269 square km of forest and wet land.Smokefilled air created a burning smell and a dusting of ashes that coated cars and buildings through much of Florida and southeastern Georgia. The fog over most of Florida even closed several highways and sent people with breathing problems indoors.The flooding was produced by the wet weekend thunderstorms across the Plains states that also destroyed Greensburg, Kansas In addition to 11 tornadoes deaths, two drowning deaths were blamed on the storms, one each in Oklahoma and Kansas.High water had poured over the tops of at least 20 levees（大堤）along the Missouri River and other streams in the state, authorities said on Wednesday.Missouri National Guard troops were helping. And Highway Patrol（巡逻）troopers were working 24hour shifts near Big Lake, a village town of about 150 in the states northwest corner, which was flooded by five levee breaks along the Missouri River and four smaller ones on other streams, said patrol Lieutenant John Hotz.No injuries were reported but the Missouri Water Patrol rescued about 20 people from their flooded homes, including Glenn Burger, who had the patrol return him to his home to rescue his two pet cockatiels（澳洲鹦鹉）. 9. What is uncommon about the weather this year?A. The storm happened in spring.B. The storm lasted a long time.C. The wind brought about flood.D. The tornado struck a large area.10. What can we say about the natural disaster which happened this year?A. This year the biggest flood happened in history.B. The damage caused by disasters is the greatest.
