D．Four.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。 由第四段可知，海啸通常是由地震或火山爆发引起的。‎ ‎2．In the Tohoku earthquake over 15,000 people died mainly because of ________.‎ A．the earthquake itself B．the lack of warning systems C．the tsunami caused by the earthquake D．the nuclear accidents caused by the tsunami 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“...a tsunami that was a major factor in the death of over 15,000 people.”可知，在2011年日本大地震中，海啸是造成超过15,000人死亡的主要原因。故C项正确。‎ ‎3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?‎ A．Over 200,000 people were killed in 12 countries because of the earthquake in Dec.2004.‎ B．Sometimes tsunamis are said as tidal waves，because they are related to tides.‎ 6‎ C．The warning systems in some regions help people move to a safe place.‎ D．If you see water move to the coast, there will be a tsunami on the way.‎ 解析：选C　细节理解题。从文章第六段可以看出C项正确。由倒数第三段可以看出是由于地震引起的海啸使20多万人丧生，而非地震本身，A项错误。B项与第三段意思相反，故为错误选项。文章第五段提到，海啸来时海水会从海岸向后退，而非向前进，故D项错误。‎ ‎4．The text is developed mainly by ________.‎ A．listing some facts B．giving some examples C．providing some numbers D．making some comparisons 解析：选A　写作手法题。本文主要列举了一些关于海啸的基本常识和事实。故A项正确。‎ B Ann Daniel and Helen Findlay faced the dangers of polar bears，thin ice and frostbite(冻伤)when they became members of an expedition(探险队) to the Arctic in 2010.‎ The expedition team consisted of six scientists and a separate group of three explorers.While Helen and the other scientists were setting up a laboratory site on the ice in northern Canada，Ann and two other explorers set off on a 500 kilometre journey on foot across floating sea ice from Greenland to the North Pole.‎ Both groups planned to measure how thick the ice was at various sites in the Arctic.They would also collect water samples(样本) for testing, in order to discover how the chemistry of sea water was changing, and what effect this was having on plantlife and animals in the ocean.The research was important for understanding what might happen in other oceans around the world in the future, as a result of climate change.‎ Ann Daniel became one of the world's leading professional polar explorers in 1996.Despite(尽管) her previous experience，however，Ann suffered in the freezing conditions.“It gets into your bones and never leaves you, even when you're in your tent at night，” she said.“Especially at the end of an expedition when you're totally exhausted.” Yet Ann successfully guided her companions(同伴)for 73 days and collected all the samples and information that were needed.‎ Helen Findlay was one of the scientists on the laboratory site based in Canada.Although it was not her first visit to the Arctic，she had never been there 6‎ ‎ in winter and realised that carrying out experiments in such an extreme environment would be challenging.The laboratory tents were heated, but getting equipment to work outside while wearing gloves and thick clothes meant every job took twice as long as it would normally.‎ Despite the difficulties, both Ann and Helen stayed out on the ice for the whole of the project，and the results of their studies have been widely published.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是说明文。Ann Daniel和Helen Findlay加入2010北极探险队，克服困难，成功完成科考任务。‎ ‎5．Why did Ann and Helen join the 2010 Arctic expedition?‎ A．To do some research on the sea water.‎ B．To study the living situation of polar bears.‎ C．To observe the plantlife and animals there.‎ D．To experience the dangerous life in the Arctic.‎ 解析：选A　细节理解题。由第三段的描述可知，Ann和Helen加入2010北极探险队是为了研究海水中化学物质的变化以及其对海洋生物的影响。‎ ‎6．What may the expedition team's work contribute to?‎ A．Predicting the future of oceans.‎ B．Finding the reasons for climate change.‎ C．Studying animals living in the polar region.‎ D．Analyzing the consequences of rising sea levels.‎ 解析：选A　推理判断题。由第三段中的“The research was important for understanding what might happen in other oceans around the world in the future, as a result of climate change.”可知，这项研究有助于理解由于气候变化未来海洋将会发生什么。‎ ‎7．What do we know about Ann and Helen?‎ A．They were professional polar scientists.‎ B．They successfully carried out the project.‎ C．They went to the Arctic for the first time in 2010.‎ D．They lacked the necessary physical strength and practice.‎ 解析：选B　推理判断题。由倒数第三段中“Yet Ann successfully guided her companions(同伴) for 73 days and collected all the samples and information that were needed.”以及最后一段中的“Ann and Helen stayed out on the ice for the whole of the project, and the results of their studies have been widely published”可知，Ann和Helen成功完成了北极科考任务。‎ 6‎ ‎8．What can we infer about the 2010 Arctic expedition?‎ A．It was dangerous though simple.‎ B．It was demanding but fruitful.‎ C．It attracted 73 explorers and scientists.‎ D．It aimed to build a laboratory on the ice.‎ 解析：选B　推理判断题。由最后三段的描述可知，这次北极考察非常艰难，但卓有成效。‎ Ⅳ.七选五 ‎(2019·黑龙江哈尔滨期末)‎ Tips to Increase Your Productivity ‎ Do you want to get more done in your day?
