29、 injured hundreds more,according to the U.S.Geological Survey.With these two and the memories of the huge 9.0-magnitude earthquake and tsunami海嘯that destroyd northeast of Japan in 2019 not far from peoples minds,what is it about this part of the world that makes it so active in earthquakes?First of

30、all,Japan is along the so-called Pacific Ring of Fire,which is the most active earthquake area in the world.This “ring is actually an imaginary U-shaped zone that follows the edge邊緣of the Pacific Ocean,where many of the worlds earthquakes occur.“The earthquake in Kumamoto seems to have been caused b

31、y the collision碰撞between the Philippines Sea Plate板塊and the Eurasia Plate, said Paul Caruso,a geophysicist of the USGS.While Japan is no stranger to earthquakes,the 7.0-magnitude earthquake is one of the largest ever recorded in this part of southern Japan,Caruso told Live Science.“The second larges

32、t was probably on March 20,1939there was a magnitude of 6.7 in this area, he said.“Not all earthquakes cause tsunamis, Caruso said.In general,there are three key elements that can produce a dangerous earthquake-tsunami combination,he added.First,the earthquake must be at least 7.0-magnitude.Second,t

33、he quakes epicenter震中has to be under the ocean,Caruso said.And finally,the earthquake hasnt to be too deep.“We have quakes around Fiji all the time,but those are sometimes 640 kilometers underground,so they arent going to cause a tsunami, he said.The one in Kumamoto was about 10 km underground but t

34、he epicenter was on land,Caruso said.“There are lots of large aftershocks, Caruso told Live Science.“And of course,after a large earthquake,buildings are often weakened as a result.Additional damage can be expected. People living in the area should expect more shaking in the coming days,according to

35、 Caruso.“We can say for certain that there are going to be more aftershocks in this area, he said.“Exactly when and how big theyre going to be is difficult to say,though.No one can predict that.24.The earthquake happened on April 15th in Kumamoto . A.was the largest one that ever happened there

38、t be the title of the passage?A.Why Are Earthquakes in Japan So Destructive?B.Why Do So many Earthquakes Attack Japan?C.Why Do Earthquakes Cause Tsunamis in Japan?D.Why Do So Many Earthquakes Happen?語篇解讀:這是一篇說明文,介紹了日本地震頻發(fā)的原因以及地震引發(fā)海嘯的因素。答案及剖析: 24.A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的“A 7.0-magnitude震級(jí)earthquake attacked Kum

39、amoto,Japan on April 15th,2016可知4月15號(hào)日本的Kumamoto發(fā)生了7.0級(jí)的地震;由此可知,第三段中的“the 7.0-magnitude earthquake is one of the largest ever recorded in this part of southern Japan指的是4月15號(hào)發(fā)生在日本Kumamoto的地震,故此題選A。25.C猜測(cè)詞義題。在句子“there are three key elements that can produce a dangerous earthquake-tsunami combination中,

40、that引導(dǎo)的定語從句修飾elements,表示elements可以同時(shí)產(chǎn)生危險(xiǎn)的地震和海嘯。選項(xiàng)A.Conculsions結(jié)論;選項(xiàng)B.Influences影響;選項(xiàng)C.Ingredients成分,因素;選項(xiàng)D.Intentions意圖。根據(jù)上下文應(yīng)選C。26.D推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段的“after a large earthquake,buildings are often weakened as a result可知A項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤;根據(jù)第四段中關(guān)于導(dǎo)致海嘯和地震的三個(gè)要素“First,the earthquake must be at least 7.0-magnitude.Second,t

41、he quakes epicenter震中has to be under the ocean,Caruso said.And finally,the earthquake hasnt to be too deep.可知B項(xiàng)表述不準(zhǔn)確;根據(jù)最后一段的“We can say for certain that there are going to be more aftershocks in this area, he said.“Exactly when and how big theyre going to be is difficult to say,though.No one can pre

42、dict that.可知余震是不可預(yù)測(cè)的,故C項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤;根據(jù)第五段的“We have quakes around Fiji all the time,but those are sometimes 640 kilometers underground,so they arent going to cause a tsunami可知D項(xiàng)正確,故此題答案為D。27.B主旨大意題。通讀全文可知本文構(gòu)造為總分構(gòu)造,介紹了日本地震頻發(fā)的原因以及地震引發(fā)海嘯的因素。文章第一段的最后一句“With these two and the memories of the huge 9.0-magnitude ear

43、thquake and tsunami海嘯that destroyd northeast of Japan in 2019 not far from peoples minds,what is it about this part of the world that makes it so active in earthquakes?為主題句,應(yīng)選B。CAt an age when many people are still looking to find a career,US director-screenwriter Damien Chazelle,32,is already at th

44、e top of his.Two of the three movies he wrote and directed-Whiplash ?爆裂鼓手?,2019 and La La Land ?愛樂之城?,2019-have won several Academy Awards.On Feb 27,La La Land took home six Oscars,including Best Director,which makes him the youngest director in history to win the award.At a moment like this,its per

45、fectly normal if someone gets a little carried away with their sudden fame.But that “someone is not Chazelle.This might be hard to believe,but the director said that he has been living in self-doubt for all his life.He has a habit of worrying that everything will go wrong and that people wont like h

46、is stories,even if the fact that he went to Harvard Film School is enough for many people to feel jealous.“The one thing I think that Im good at is not getting confident, he said in an interview with website Firstshowing.In fact,he wrote the story for Whiplash in 2019 but didnt feel good about it at

47、 first.He locked it away for a year before finally having the courage to show it to a film producer.And it turned out to be a great story.But self-doubt didnt stop Chazelle from trying,because he knew that “the more a project scares you,the more that probably means its worth doing, he told GQ magazi

48、ne.And that was the attitude he took with La La Land,even if it was a big challenge.For starters,musicals are not as popular among audiences as regular movies.Shooting a musical is also much harder because its like making three projects all at oncethe movie itself,a singing album,and a dancing conce

49、rt.But Chazelle managed to not only finish it,but also make it the biggest winner at the Oscars. To Chazelle,perhaps,no matter how scared he is,trying new ideas is always more important than staying in his comfort zone.“I have so much respect for movies that try something or risk being embarras

50、sing.Thats much more inspiring to me than movies that play it safe, he told Vice magazine.28.Which of the following statements is TRUE about Damien Chazelle according to the article?A.He taught himself directing and screenwriting.B.He has achieved in his career at a young age.C.All the movies he dir

53、erB.Damien Chazelles long career as a film directorC.the creative directing skills Damien Chazelle uses in his worksD.how Damien Chazelle is successful,though he doubts himself語篇解讀:本文介紹了奧斯卡最正確導(dǎo)演獎(jiǎng)的最年輕的獲得者達(dá)米恩·查澤雷Damien Chazelle。Damien 成名后并沒有忘乎所以,反而一直自我疑心。但是正是這種不自信讓他英勇地去挑戰(zhàn)讓他感到害怕的事情,從而到達(dá)了如今的成就。答案及剖

54、析:28.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的“At an age when many people are still looking to find a career,US director-screenwriter Damien Chazelle,32,is already at the top of his.可知Damien很年輕就到達(dá)了事業(yè)的頂峰。29.C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段的“he has been living in self-doubt for all his life.和第五段的“The one thing I think that Im good at is not getting

55、 confident可知Damien 一直自我疑心、缺乏自信,故此題選C。30.B猜測(cè)詞義題。根據(jù)上下文可知the attitude 指代上文中的“the more a project scares you,the more that probably means its worth doing越讓你害怕的事情越值得做,也就是說,要挑戰(zhàn)我們所害怕的事情,故該題選B。31.D主旨大意題。根據(jù)全文可知,文章主要講述奧斯卡最正確導(dǎo)演獎(jiǎng)的最年輕的獲得者達(dá)米恩·查澤雷成名后并沒有忘乎所以,反而一直自我疑心。但是正是這種不自信讓他英勇地去挑戰(zhàn)讓他感到害怕的事情,從而到達(dá)了如今的成就。因此本文主要

56、是關(guān)于Damien是如何成名的,應(yīng)選D。DThink of all the things you throw away:juice bottles,soda cans,candy covers.It adds up.How much rubbish do you produce?Americans throw away about 1 ton of rubbish per person every year.Thats 2,000 pounds of rubbish!Most of the rubbish gets covered in big holes in the round calle

57、d landfills.A lot of this rubbish can be recycled,or turned back to something useful.The main things we recycle today are made of metal,paper.People recycle for many reasons.One of the main reasons is to protect resources.Making new cans out of old ones means less aluminum is needed for new cans.This leads to a second reason why people recycle:it saves energy.Recycling old aluminum cans takes much less energy than mak
