【解析】

試題分析：本文講述的是龍卷風、颶風這些氣候災害的破壞性。

【1】考查定語從句。在后置的非限制性定語從句中which代替上文出現(xiàn)的事物或情況，這里要用which 指代前面的a tornado,故填which

【2】考查動詞的單復數(shù)形式。本句的主語是a tornado,所以謂語動詞要用單數(shù)，故填occurs

【3】 考查非謂語動詞。句子已經(jīng)有謂語動詞了，這里要用非謂語動詞，用現(xiàn)在分詞表主動，故填affecting

【4】考查動詞單復數(shù)。本句的主語是Hurricanes，所以謂語動詞要用復數(shù)，故填strike

【5】考查形容詞最高級。這里的一次是造成損壞最壞的一次，所以要用最高級，故填worst

【6】考查名詞的用法。句子是指造成6000的死亡數(shù)，deaths n.死亡數(shù)，故填deaths

【7】考查動詞。And 連接一個句子，這里與carried相對應，故填destructed

【8】考查定語從句。本句的先行詞是地點，所以要用where來引導定語從句，where等于in which,故填where/ in which

【9】考查被動語態(tài)。這里是指被帶到，所以要用被動語態(tài)，同時是發(fā)生在過去的，要用過去式。故填was carried

【10】考查固定短語的使用。eight years later八年后，符合題意。故填later
