Question

【題目】My family lives very happily on a farm near a small town. My father always learns some information about weather through the TV, the Internet and newspapers.

One evening, he asked us to meet at the table after dinner. "I have some bad news," he said. "The weather reports on the television warned(警告)that we would face a typhoon tomorrow."

At 6.30 a.m. the next day, the winds started and the rain was falling heavily. There were new warnings that the sea level could go up as much as 5 meters.

The winds were terribly strong and tree branches were flying everywhere. Trees were falling down and the rain kept coming down.

Just after 10:30, the wind stopped suddenly-it was strangely calm and the sun was shining. Then the winds came howling(咆哮)again, but this time more rain fell. There were more flying things and the storm came in. Everything within 1 km of the coast was flooded-there was fish in the streets. Now the winds were dying down, but the rain was still falling.

After another two hours, the wind came to a stop at last. My home was in a mess and my mum burnt her arm when the hot water from the stove hit her skin. We were all frightened, but we were all safe, including the cat.

試題分析：本文作者介紹了臺(tái)風(fēng)發(fā)生時(shí)的景象。從上午6點(diǎn)30分開(kāi)始刮風(fēng)，然后下了大雨。在10點(diǎn)30分風(fēng)突然停了，然后風(fēng)怒吼著，下的雨更大。又過(guò)了兩個(gè)小時(shí)，風(fēng)最后停下來(lái)。作者的家里一片狼藉，我們雖然害怕，但是很安全。

【1】D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段的"I have some bad news," he said. "The weather reports on the television warned(警告)that we would face a typhoon tomorrow."可知父親從電視報(bào)道上得知明天要有臺(tái)風(fēng)，故選D。

【2】A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的There were new warnings that the sea level could go up as much as 5 meters.可知新的警報(bào)告知海平面將高達(dá)5米，故選A。

【3】C 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段的At 6.30 a.m. the next day, the winds started and the rain was falling heavily.第五段的Just after 10:30, the wind stopped suddenly……Then the winds came howling(咆哮)again, but this time more rain fell.最后一段的After another two hours, the wind came to a stop at last.可知臺(tái)風(fēng)從上午6點(diǎn)30分持續(xù)到10點(diǎn)30分，突然平靜下來(lái)后然后又持續(xù)了兩個(gè)小時(shí)，故推斷這次臺(tái)風(fēng)一共持續(xù)了大約6個(gè)小時(shí)，故選C。

【4】B 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段的At 6.30 a.m. the next day, the winds started and the rain was falling heavily. 可知臺(tái)風(fēng)發(fā)生時(shí)下雨了，故排除D。根據(jù)第四段的The winds were terribly strong可知刮大風(fēng)了，故排除C項(xiàng)。根據(jù)第五段的Everything within I km of the coast was flooded-there was fish in the streets.可知有洪水，故排除A項(xiàng)。故推斷發(fā)生臺(tái)風(fēng)時(shí)沒(méi)有下雪，故選B。
