Unit 4 EarthquakesⅠ.阅读理解AAn earthquake is one of the most common natural disasters.It may cause great damage.So it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.Fragile items,like those made of glass are easily broken and should usually be placed on a lower surface,near the ground instead of placing them on cupboards higher up.Never place them near your bed,sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down.When there is strong movement,these pieces will fall to the floor directly and not on you.There is a strong chance of short circuits (短路) and fire breakouts during an earthquake.Make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.During an earthquake,lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged.Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you.Never use the elevator to go down.Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside.Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go e the staircases at all times.If you are outdoors,do not take shelter under a tree,streetlights,electric poles or tall buildings.If you are driving,stop your car and stay in a safe place.Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.If trapped in debris (瓦砾堆),cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing.Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can find e a whistle (哨子) if one is available.Never shout for help.Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust.Do not light a match because you may burn yourself.Do not move about or kick up dust.1.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “Fragile”in Paragraph 2?A.Easily found.B.Easily broken.C.Expensive.D.Heavy.2.Where should the items made of glass be put to reduce the injury from the earthquake?A.On cupboards.B.On a lower surface.C.In the bedroom.D.Where children can’t reach them.3.What are people advised to do during the earthquake?A.Go out the building at once.B.Drive to a safe place quickly.C.Take shelter under a tree.D.Turn off electricity and gas immediately.语篇解读:地震是最常见的自然灾难之一,常造成巨大的损失。

Earthquakes李仕才【阅读理解】At present we spend a lot of time on our mobile devices these days and automakers have taken notes, rolling out connected cars that make it easy to do nearly everything from your phone.“We all enjoy those kinds of experiences where you want something and by the push of a button everything gets taken care of for you.You don’t have to go here and there and piece a bunch of things together by yourself. ”Ford recently introduced FordPass, a mobile platform that lets car owners access services like finding and paying for a parking spot.“Here’s the details of what charges will be in sign, and then I submit (点击接受), and then I receive a QRphoto allowing me entry access to that parking location. ”Over at Buick, the OnStar RemoteLink app connects owners to their cars no matter how faraway they are. “This car in Detroit, I could start from here in New York. Or let us say I have the only key to it and my wife in Detroit needs to get in the car, I can unlock it for her from here. ”The feature harnesses the car’s 4G LTE connectivity (连接性). Up to seven mobile devices can connect to it at any given time.“We want people to feel as if they are at home within the car, which a lot of people want to be in just for the driving experience, now they can be in there as well, the passengers can be in there as well for the connectivity experience. ”But what does that connectivity mean for your privacy?“It is important to have personal information to create that individualized, personalized experience, but certainly it will be a customer’s option. ”For certain consumers, it may not even be an issue.“There certainly is a factor where a younger consumer is much more comfortable giving up a lot more privacy and data than an older consumer is, and more likely than not, you are going to see a similar behavior to how they handle their personal privacy within the vehicle. ”Considering how capable our mobile devices have become, perhaps the only question left to answer is: “Who’s driving? ”【文章大意】由于移动设备的广泛应用, 制造商推出了装配有车载移动设备的轿车, 进而可从事由智能手机发出指令的动作。

Unit 4 Earthquakes课时作业Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2019·邯郸模拟C)Have you ever noticed tiny raised areas on the branches of a tree?These may have been insects.These small insects feed on tree sap(汁液).Insects on urban trees are notably more abundant than those on rural trees.As a result,urban trees suffer from heavy infestations(害虫横行),and are often unhealthy or die.To protect and restore urban trees' health,we need to determine the factors that make these tree pests more successful in urban habitats.Living organisms interact closely with their environment.The warmer,more drought -stressed trees harbor more successful pests than cooler,less drought-stressed trees.As cities and natural habitats become hotter and drier,damaging insects will become more abundant on urban trees.Trees within urban forests are valuable economically and for the environmental sustainability(可持续性)of the region.More than half of the world's population lives in cities.Across the globe,people are moving into cities at a faster rate than ever.Rapid growth may turn cities into places with harder conditions.Although cities are primarily made of buildings,roads,parking lots,and vehicles,there are still plants in them.The trees within a city are referred to as the urban forest.Urban forests offer very big benefits to human and environmental health.They improve air and water quality,provide habitat for wildlife,cool down temperatures and beautify our environment.They make cities livable.However,being a city tree is not easy.Heat released by human activities is trapped in cities.As a result,temperatures in urban areas are often warmer than their surrounding rural areas.We call this urban warming or the urban heat island effect.Urban habitats are mostly made of surfaces of asphalt(沥青)and concrete.These surfaces reduce the amount of rainwater that reaches tree roots.As a result,urban forests may suffer,which can negatively affect people and theenvironment.What can we do to restore urban forests?Regular irrigation when possible may help keep pest populations under control.Planting tree species that are suitable to handle heat and drought stress would also reduce the occurrence of insect pest outbreaks.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了城市中的森林使城市宜居,但是人类的活动对城市的树木产生了极大的影响,所以我们应该为保护城市树木采取行动。

Unit 4 Earthquake(一)惨痛的记忆:中国历史上的大地震1556: Shaanxi, China明代陕西大地震The deadliest quake of all time might be one of the least talked about, considering it occurred nearly 450 years ago. The 1556 quake claimed the lives of some 830,000 people. Why the massive death toll? Blame the quake's strength (8.0 on the Richter scale, or more than 30 times more powerful than the recent quake in Haiti) as well as timing and location. The pre-modern structures were utterly unableto withstand a quake of such force, and massivelandslides contributed to the casualties.历史上最可怕的地震也许是最少被谈及的一场地震,因为它发生在450年之前。
这场地震导致83万人死亡。
为何死亡人数如此巨大?原因在于震级(里氏8.0级,比刚发生的海地地震强30倍),还有时间和地点。
古代的房屋建筑完全不能抵挡这样的大地震,大面积的山体滑坡也导致不少人遇难。
1976: Tangshan, China唐山大地震China has the misfortune to have had the second deadliest earthquake on record, the 1976 Great Tangshan Earthquake, which struck in the country's northeast. It'd be more accurate to call this a binaryquake: an aftershock that struck 16 hours afterthe initial temblor measured an identical 7.8 onthe Richter scale and was equally destructive.继陕西地震之后,中国又发生了第二大强度的地震,1976年唐山大地震,确切来说是两次大地震:地震后16小时,里氏7.8级的余震又造成了巨大损失。
