There are many types of reports. A report is simply an account of something that has happened. The commonest are news reports. We get them in newspapers, over radio and on television. Sometimes cinemas also show us newsreels(新闻影片).
The main purpose of a newspaper is to provide news. If you examine a newspaper closely, you will find that there are all types of news: accidents, floods, fires, wars, fashions, sports, books, etc. The news covers everything that happens to people
and their surroundings. Sometimes there are news items which are very amusing.
A news report is usually very short, except when it is about something very important, but it contains a lot of information. It is also written in short paragraphs. The first paragraph is in fact a summary of the news item. It gives all the necessary information, what, when, where, how and why. The other paragraphs give full details of the subject. There may also be interviews with people. The words actually spoken by them are within inverted commas(引号).
Often there are photographs to go with the news to make it more interesting.

The first ting we do is to put an APB and this goes to all the police stations in the country.
Next we telephone the hospitals. Often the person we are looking for has been in an accident.
Then we might try parents, friends or relatives they might be with. We try to follow their movements and to find the last person they saw in local or national papers—especially papers they might read. There are other things we can do: put posters in places where they might be, go on television.
Here in America there is a magazine in which there are photographs of missing children. This is often the last hope. Of course, with nearly two million missing children every year, we can’t do all these things for everyone. We haven’t got the time, or the money , or the people who work for it.

Two Earthquakes in Two Months:
Comparing the Quakes in Haiti (海地) and Chile (智利)
Overview (概要) How do the earthquakes in Chile and Haiti compare? Here, students perform a gallery walk to learn more about the earthquakes from a specific point, and then do a specific research and presentation project or response activity. Finally, they seek answers to their unanswered questions.
Materials Print copies of photographs, charts, documents and other visuals to display, as described below; computer (s) with Internet access (optional), research materials, handouts.
Warm-up Choose and prepare a “gallery” of photographs, graphics, news reports and other materials to display around the room to enable students to consider the 2010 earthquake in Chile.
Depending on course program, choose materials for the gallery that provide a window on the two quakes, through one of the following specific points, or the focus of your choice:
Earthquakes through History Putting the 2010 Chilean and Haitian quakes into historical view related to other earthquakes, including the 1960 Chilean quake and the 2004 Asian earthquake and tsunami.
Rescue and Aid Considering domestic and international response to the disasters by militaries, governments and aid organizations, including rescue and recovery as well as efforts to provide food, water, health care and shelter to those affected.
Related The article Underwater Plate Cuts 400 Mile Gash compares several earthquakes:
Mr. Lin figured that the quake on Saturday was 250 to 350 times more powerful than the Haitian quake.
But Paul Caruso noted that at least on land, the effects of the Chilean tremor (震动) might not be as bad. For one thing, he said, the quality of building construction is generally better in Chile than in Haiti. And the fact that the quake occurred offshore should also help limit the destruction. In Haiti, the rupture (断裂) occurred only a few miles from the capital, Port-au-Prince. The rupture on Saturday was centered about 60 miles from the nearest town, Chillan, and 70 miles from the country’s second-largest city, Concepción.
Read the article using the following questions.
Questions For discussion with others and reading comprehension:
How does the 2010 Chilean earthquake compare to the 1960 Chilean earthquake?
Why do scientists believe that the 2010 Chilean earthquake will not cause the same level of damage as January’s Haitian earthquake did?
How does the 2010 Chilean earthquake compare to the 2004 Indonesian earthquake?
What reasons do scientists give to explain why the Indonesian quake caused so much more damage than the recent Chilean earthquake?
64. Which of the following shows one of the reasons for slighter losses in Chile than in Haiti?
A. Position:
     
B. Power:

65. We can infer that the article Underwater Plate Cuts 400 Mile Gash includes ________.

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

A 7．0 magnitude（级）earthquake killed more than 230,000 people in Haiti．Then an 8．8 magnitude quake killed more than 900 people in Chile．And few weeks later, a 6．0 magnitude quake struck rural eastern Turkey, killing at least 57 people．

The earthquakes kept coming hard and fast．  1  It’s not．The problem is what’s happening above ground, not underground, experts say．

2  They’re rapidly putting up buildings that can’t stand up to earth quakes, scientists believe．

And news reports and better earthquake monitoring make it seem as if earth quakes are increasing all the time．

On average, there are 134 earthquakes a year that have a magnitude between 6．0 and 6．9．So far this year there have been 40 earthquakes—more than in most years for that time period．But that’s because the 8．8 quake in Chile caused a large number of strong aftershocks．

Also, it’s not the number of quakes, but their destructive effects that gain attention．The death is largely due to building standards,  3   Paul Earle, a US seismologist, called for better building standards in the world’s big cities．

Of the 130 cities worldwide with populations of more than I million, more than half are likely to be hit by earthquakes．  4 “If you have a problem feeding yourself, you’re not really going to worry about earthquakes,” said Paul．

The earthquakes made everyone start to think   5  “People are paying attention to the violent planet we’re always living on．Come back an another six months if there has been no earthquakes, most people will have forgotten it again,” said US disaster researcher Dennis Mileti．

A．But it won’t last．

B．More people are moving into big cities．

C．Earthquakes don’t kill people, buildings do．

D．There have been more deaths overt the past decade from earthquakes．

E．Many people began to wonder if something terrible is happening underground．

F．While it seems as if the are more earthquakes occurring, there really aren’t．

G．But developing nations with growing populations don’t pay attention to earthquake preparedness．
