【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Terrible disasters in the last 50 or 100 years have become increasingly common. Over the last 30 years, the number of weather-related disasters has increased quickly, and the disasters have also affected more people and caused more economic loss. However, much of this could be avoided through disaster risk reduction(DRR降低灾难风险).
A meeting, held in Sendai, Japan last month, opened one day after Cyclone Pam(飓风Pam)hit Vanuatu, which struck the islands with winds of up to 340km/h and destroyed the island nation. The speech by the President of Vanuatu was given shortly after that. He begged the international community for support and stronger commitment (承诺)to helping them manage climate and disaster risks. In the face of disasters, it is always the developing countries that suffer most. Damage in these countries is often worse and unluckily, there is limited money and technique to prevent these disasters.
In fact, we have seen Asian countries-especially those that have suffered a lot in disasters can't pay the price. Great loss Asia has suffered comes to a total of almost $ 53 billon yearly over the past 20 years.
At the same time, studies have shown once again that proper prevention saves lives and damage. With this in mind, people at the Sendai meeting were able to come up with new agreements that effective ways of disaster risk reduction will be carried out in the coming years for those who easily get damaged in disasters.
(1)According to the first paragraph, disasters ________.
A.can all be prevented
B.have become more frequent
C.are all weather-related ones
D.affect fewer people than before
(2)We can know from the passage that_______.
A.The Sendai meeting was held one day after a cyclone hit Vanuatu
B.Vanuatu was terribly destroyed by an earthquake
C.The president of Vanuatu begged his country to prevent the disaster
D.Vanuatu is a small island in Japan
(3)Which of the following can be the title of this news report?
A.Proper ways that save lives and damage have come up.
B.The Sendai meeting has made new commitments.
C.Natural disasters have become more common.
D.Some natural disasters can be reduced and avoided.

【题目】Winter care for roses

Do roses need extra care for winter? Like so many other things in the garden, the answer is debatable. 1

Roses are grouped and referred to by type. Shrub roses are the hardiest and need little extra care. Hybrid tea roses and other roses are more likely to need winterization to survive or remain healthy.

2 And even shrub roses exposed to severe winter conditions can suffer. If roses are growing in a location that is subject to heavy winter winds, even the hardiest varieties may benefit from winterization.

Some gardeners live by the theory that if a plant can't grow well, the best bet is to replace it. 3 If you wish to do nothing with your roses, you also have chances of having plants around in the spring. If you like to baby plants along, winterization is for you.

Winterize roses after a hard freeze and cold weather. The first step is to add soil or other plant material over the crown(花冠)of the rose bush. The material should be about 12 inches deep over the crown. The second step to winterizing roses is to tie up the plants. 4 If the plants are tall, use ropes to provide support to them.

When spring comes, remove the added soil from the base of the plant. 5 This is the time to clean up cuts and reduce plant size if desired.

A.Location also plays a role, though.

B.Remove strings if plants have been tied up.

C.So they often change the plants they grow.

D.Other gardeners have plants that are almost like children.

E.You should consider sunshine and water when answering this question.

F.The main purpose is to prevent them from breaking off in the face of strong winds.

G.It depends on the plant variety, growing location and a gardener's personal preference.

【题目】How to revise for a test

Studying for tests may be one of the most difficult parts of school. 1 If you feel discouraged about an approaching test and need some directions for preparing yourself, consider using the following suggestions to help you out.

Aim foremost to understand the concepts.

Keep the important points in mind, and ignore unnecessary information. 2

Ask for help.

When the need arises, it is best to receive help from the others. 3 You could also ask him/ her for a set of questions and answers that could help you memorize the information. You could also ask a family member or a friend for help.

Practice in everyday life.

Fit reviewing into everyday life by sticking up notes with sentences you need to remember for the test written upon them. 4 You could possibly put one on the bathroom mirror, one at the table and another by the TV. This is optional but highly recommended.

5

Find out how much you remember certain things and what’s missing. Decide what you did well in and what you did not so well in. This may boost your chances of getting more marks in the assessment and may also help you remember for next time. For instance, if you are struggling on maths problems based on geometry, then put this down as something that you need to review more than the subjects you are good at.

Review often but little.

Do not push yourself and try reviewing everything in one day. Practice takes time and if you rush, you won’t remember anything.

A. Go through what you have been learning.

B. Mark your practice tests.

C. As long as you remain focused on the main topics, you will be able to do well on the test.

D. However, even the worst test performance could be turned around into a successful attempt.

E. It can be difficult to remember the material and understand which points to study.

F. You will notice them every day and reviewing won’t seem to be boring or dull.
