A major rescue operation was performed on Sunday following two strikes which hit the Brecon Beacons, South Wales. Two men died, while two others were taken to hospital. A police spokeswoman said, “A man in a serious condition in hospital, following simultaneous(同时发生的)incidents in the Brecon Beacons, has now improved and he is recovering. Officers are continuing to get in touch with the next of relatives of the dead men and enquiries are ongoing. All men were believed to be from England.” Mark Jones, of the Brecon Mountain Rescue Team, described the lightning strike as a freak accident, and something he had not been called out to in 30 years of service. The walking group Ramblers Cymru said that while incidents involving thunder and lightning were rare, electrical storms should be taken seriously by walkers. The organisation's delivery officer, Elly Hannigan Popp, said, “We'd advise everyone to check the weather forecast before starting a walk. If you hear thunder, see lightning or if your hair stands on end, postpone activities even if the sky looks blue and clear. Lightning will strike as far as 10 miles away from any rainfall. Lightning can strike the same place repeatedly—especially tall, pointed, isolated objects.” “If there is no shelter you should keep moving. And if you become the tallest object, crouch(蹲) in the open twice as far away from the nearest pointed object as it is tall. Make yourself as small as possible, stay on your toes and keep your heels together, as it will allow electricity to go up one foot, through the heels and back into the ground through the other.” 语篇解读 这是一篇报道。在南威尔士的 Brecon Beacons，闪电击中了四人，导致两 人死亡，两人受伤。文中 Elly Hannigan Popp 提出了在雷电天气中的一些安全措施。 1. What can we learn about the victims of the incident? A. Both of the injured men are recovering slowly. B. The bodies of the two men haven't been found. C. The four men involved may be from the same country. D. The police cannot contact the two dead men's relatives. 答案与解析：C 考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“All men were believed to be from England”可知，这四个人很可能来自同一个国家。 2. Why did the author quote the police spokeswoman in Paragraph 2? A. Because the accident is very serious. B. To announce where the victims come from. C. Because the police are looking into the accident. D. To tell the readers some facts of the incident. 答案与解析：D 考查推理判断。作者在第二段中提到警方发言人并引用她的话，为的 是告诉读者与事件相关的一些事实。 3. What's the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 3? A. Unusual. B. Regular. C. Unimportant. D. Frightening. 答案与解析：A 考查词义猜测。根据画线词所在句中的“something he had not been called out to in 30 years of service”可知，在南威尔士的 Brecon Beacons，闪电击 中人的事件不常见。 4. What do the last two paragraphs tell us? A. Harm done by lightning. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 4 B. Warnings from a delivery officer. C. First aid in a lightning incident. D. Safety tips on a lightning strike. 答案与解析：D 考查主旨大意。通读最后两段的内容并根据其中的关键词“advise” 可知，最后两段主要讲述的是在雷电天气中的安全措施。 B (2017·江西模拟)Matthew Youlden speaks nine languages fluently and understands more than a dozen more. He's what is known as a polyglot. He also studies the development of minority languages. But he's more than a polyglot. He not only uses the languages fluently, but also knows about the culture of the languages very well. He can talk to native speakers comfortably in their own languages. Matthew, who is from Manchester, England, is a_language_chameleon:_Germans think he's German! Spaniards think he's Spanish and Brazilians think he's Portuguese. By his own account, Matthew has mastered a surprising number of languages by using abilities that we all possess: determination, enthusiasm and openmindedness. If your classic polyglot is someone who studies languages fulltime, then Matthew is quite different. His study doesn't keep him in an ivory tower; it connects him with people all over the world. According to Matthew, the more languages you speak, the more points of view you have. He thinks each language has a certain way of seeing the world. If you speak one language, then you have a different way of analyzing and seeing the world than the speaker of another language does. Even if they're really closelyrelated languages such as Spanish and Portuguese, they are at the same time two different worlds—two different attitudes. He said, “Therefore, having learned other languages and been surrounded by other languages, I couldn't possibly choose only one language because it would mean really giving up the possibility to be able to see the world in a different way. So the monolingual(只说一种语言的) lifestyle, for me, is the saddest, the loneliest, and the most boring way of seeing the world. There are so many advantages of learning a language. I really can't think of any reason not to.” 语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文，文章讲述了一个会说 9 种语言的人的故事。 5. According to the passage, a polyglot refers to ________. A. someone who studies the development of languages B. someone who keeps a record of minority languages C. someone who masters several languages D. someone who talks to foreigners fluently 答案与解析：C 考查推理判断。由第一段第一句“Matthew Youlden speaks nine languages fluently and understands more than a dozen more”和下文的内容可推知， polyglot 指的是“通晓数种语言的人”。故选 C。 6. What can be inferred from the underlined part in Paragraph 2? A. Matthew Youlden is very good at imitating others. B. Matthew Youlden looks like the natives in appearance. C. Matthew Youlden learns languages from native speakers. D. Matthew Youlden uses the languages as well as the natives. 答案与解析：D 考查推理判断。由画线部分后的“Germans think he's German! Spaniards think he's Spanish and Brazilians think he's Portuguese”可推知，Matthew Youlden 是语言变色龙，因为他使用这些语言跟当地人一样熟练，故而德国人以为他是德国 人，西班牙人以为他是西班牙人，而巴西人以为他是葡萄牙人。 7. Which of the following about Matthew Youlden is TRUE? A. He studies fulltime to have a good command of languages. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 B. He believes different languages enrich man's world views. C. Traveling around the world is his best way of learning. D. He has a very special talent for language learning. 答案与解析：B 考查推理判断。根据第五段的内容，尤其是前两句“According to Matthew, the more languages you speak, the more points of view you have.He thinks each language has a certain way of seeing the world”可推知，Matthew Youlden 认 为不同的语言丰富了人们的世界观。 8. What's Matthew Youlden's attitude towards the monolingual lifestyle? A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Negative. 答案与解析：D 考查观点态度。由最后一段中的“so the monolingual(只说一种语言 的)lifestyle, for me, is the saddest，the loneliest，and the most boring way of seeing the world”可知，Matthew Youlden 对单语言的生活方式的态度是消极的。 二、七选五 When it comes to the benefit of volunteering, a lot of people think it's all about the warm feeling after helping someone. __9__ As is known, Charity work requires a wide variety of people to do a wide variety of things for everything to work.
