1．There are a lot of strong tsunamis because of the size of the ocean and large earthquakes there.In open seas tsunamis are only one or two metres high.But when they are near the land，they can be as high as six or seven metres.
Houses and cars near the sea can be swept away by these big waves.Because tsunamis move fast and can travel to the other side of the sea within one day，they may affect a lot of places.
Do you know the worst tsunamis in history in the world？Look through the following list.

2．After a serious earthquake happened，a father left his wife safely at home and rushed to his sons school，only to find that the building where his son studied had collapsed and looked like a pancake.
He was shocked.He didn't know what he should do for a while，then he remembered the words he had said to his son， "No matter what happens，I'll always be there for you! "And tears began to fill his eyes.He started digging through the ruins.
As he was digging，other helpless parents and the firemen arrived and tried to pull him off the ruins，saying， "It's too late!They're all dead!There's nothing you can do!" To them he replied with one line， "Are you going to help me now？" And then he kept on digging.
No one helped，however.He went on alone because he needed to know for himself， "Is my boy alive or is he dead？" He dug for eight hours…12 hours.….24 hours.….36 hours..then in the 39th hour，he pulled back a rock and heard his son's words.He shouted his son's name， "ARMAND!" He heard back， "Dad!？!It's me，Dad!I told the other kids not to worry.I told them that if you were alive，you'd save me and when you saved me，they'd be saved.You promised， 'No matter what happens，I'll always be there for you!You did it Dad!"
"What's going on there？How is it？ "the father asked.
"There are 14 of us left out of 33，Dad.We're frightened，hungry，thirsty and thankful you're here.When the building fell down，it made a triangle，and it saved us."
"Come out，boy!"

3．If you've ever had to chop an onion，you probably know that it's one of the most annoying cooking experiences．It just fills your eyes with tears．Scientists and farmers have been working on a solution to this problem for decades，and they've apparently come up with a tearless onion．
Called the"Sunion"，this new vegetable is the result of a natural cross-breeding program that's been going on farms in Nevada and Washington since the 1980s．It's supposedly a sweet，mild-tasting onion that doesn't leave that strong，pungent aftertaste，but what really sets it apart from most other onion varieties is that it doesn't cause teary eyes when it's chopped．
When you cut into a normal onion，it releases a compound called lachrymatory-factor synthase，and'when that hits your eyes，your body produces tears．Now，the interesting thing about regular onions is that the amounts of lachrymatory-factor synthase increase the longer the vegetables are stored，so the older they，the more you cry．In Sunions，on the other hand，the levels of that annoying compound drop the more time goes by，until it no longer has any effect on your eyes when you cut it．
That's what Sunion growers are claiming anyway，but reports from those lucky enough to have tried them seem to confirm these claims．The Huffington Post had three of its reporters chop some Sunions，and apparently，none of them shed a single tear．According to the Washington Post，they don't have the pungency of regular onions and are so sweet that you can eat them"like popcorn"．
So the good news is that tearless onions are now a real thing．The bad news is that they are currently only grown in Washington and Nevada，and even though they are sold nationwide，they are still in relatively short supply．The first Sunion batches hit the shelves of grocery stores in December，but we'll probably start seeing them in most grocery shops and supermarkets in the next few years，as more people learn about them．
（1）What is special about the Sunion？
A．It's easily chopped．
B．It's sweet and tastes strong．
C．It's tearless and mild．
D．It's grown nationwide in the USA．
（2）How does the author introduce the Sunion in Paragraph 3 ？
A．By comparison．
B．By telling a story．
C．By giving examples．
D．By asking questions．
（3）What does the underlined word"pungency"in Paragraph 4 mean？
A．Round shape．
B．Strong smell．
C．Special character．
D．Medical function．
（4）What can we conclude from the last paragraph？
A．The Sunion has been largely on the market．
B．The Sunion is still on trial at present．
C．The Sunion will soon be grown worldwide．
D．The author is confident about the future of the Sunion．組卷：2引用：2難度：0.5 -
4．California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s，according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor．
The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46，000 square miles of California forests，the new study finds．No area was spared or unaffected，from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles．In the Sierra high country，the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent；in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent．
Many factors contributed to the decline，said Patrick Mclntyre，an ecologist who was the lead author of the study．Woodcutters targeted big trees．Housing development pushed into the woods．Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources（資源）．
But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010，Mclntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development．
The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage．The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed，taking into account such things as rainfall，air temperature，dampness of soil，and the timing of snowmelt（融雪）．
Since the 1930s，Mclntyre said，the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures，which cause trees to lose more water to the air，and earlier snowmelt，which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season．
（1）What is the second paragraph mainly about？
A．The seriousness of big-tree loss in California．
B．The increasing variety of California big trees．
C．The distribution of big trees in California forests．
D．The influence of farming on big trees in California．
（2）Which of the following is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees？
A．Ecological studies of forests．
B．Banning woodcutting．
C．Limiting housing development．
D．Fire control measures．
（3）What is a major cause of the water shortage according to Mclntyre？
A．Inadequate snowmelt．
B．A longer dry season．
C．A warmer climate．
D．Dampness of the air．
（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？
A．California's Forests：Where Have All the Big Trees Gone？
B．Cutting of Big Trees to Be Prohibited in California Soon．
C．Why Are the Big Trees Important to California Forests？
D．Patrick Mclntyre：Grow More Big Trees in California組卷：11引用：5難度：0.6

5．If you want to learn English well，enlarging your vocabulary is important．Here are some helpful ways to help you to have a larger vocabulary．
（1）A good dictionary should be up-to-date and easy to understand．Make sure the definitions （定義） are written in clear English．I strongly recommend Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English as there is good coverage of spoken and written English，British and American English，as well as clear example sentences．
Make notes of new words．But before you write them down on you notebook，you should look them up in the dictionary and make sure you are aware of any grammatical information．（2）When you write down the new word in your notebook，try to include an example sentence in English．
Organize your notes into themes．Some people find it very helpful to do so．（3）For example，you can have one page containing words which have something to do with houses，while another page containing words relating to jobs，and so on．
（4）The next time you have spare time，skip through your notebook．Choose a page where you have already stored a number of words and expressions，cover the page and try to remember what you wrote．Then look at the page and see how many words you have remembered．
When you find a new word，check to see if you can use it in other ways．English is a flexible language-nouns，verbs and adjectives often share the same root．（5）
A．Review the words in your notebook．
B．Have good English dictionaries．
C．Read books that contain some new words．
D．Look up new words and phrases in your dictionary．
E．For example，love，lovely，beloved and loveless all share one root．
F．For example，if you are looking up a verb，check to see if it can be used in a passive form．
G．So rather than have a list of words without any obvious connection，you can divide your notes into themes．組卷：0引用：2難度：0.5
