Answer 1

答案：1A2B3A
解析：

听力原文：     Last Friday a storm tore through two villages in South Africa destroying fourteen homes. Seven others were so badly damaged that their owners had to leave them, and fifteen others had broken windows or torn roofs. One person was killed; seven were badly injured and taken to hospital, and a number of other people received small injuries. Altogether over two hundred people were homeless as a result of the storm.     A farmer, Mr. Smith, said that the storm began early in the morning and lasted for an hour. “I was in the kitchen with my wife and children,” he said, “when we heard a loud noise. A few minutes later our house fell down on top of us. We managed to climb out but then I saw that one of my children was missing. I went back inside and found him, safe but frightened.”     Soldiers helped to bring people out of the flooded area and the government provided food, clothes and houses.     (Now listen again, please)
