What is a hurricane?

You may already know that hurricanes are storms that can cause devastating(毀滅性的)waves，wind，and rain．They happen during“Hurricane Season，”which is from June 1st until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.

Categories(類別)of Hurricanes

There are five categories of hurrlcanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害)a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed，the more dangerous the storm．For example，a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour，which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shorelines completely．

Hurricane Dangers

When a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall，there can be a devastating flood．The centre of a hurricane is called the eye．While most of a hurricane has dangerously strong winds，the eye is actually(事實上)a calm area in the storm．When the eye of a hurricane passes over land，people might think that it’s over，but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through．

Hurricane Safety Tips

There is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction，so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane，be sure to remember the following safety tips．

·Be sure you have a radio，batteries，fresh drinking water，and enough food．

·Tell neighbours，friends，and family members your emergency plans．Tell them where you’ll go if you need to leave your home．

·If you live near the ocean，leave your home and travel to a safe place．You could stay with a friend or a family member，in a hotel／motel，or in an emergency shelter area．

·Stay inside during the storm．You could be seriously injured(受傷)if you go outside．

【解析】

試題分析：這篇短文講述了颶風(fēng)的特點，種類，以及颶風(fēng)所帶來的損害，最后作者提出了幾個怎樣應(yīng)對颶風(fēng)的小建議。

【1】這句話是在說，在大西洋區(qū)域，颶風(fēng)季節(jié)通常持續(xù)6個月，在太平洋區(qū)域是6個月半。Last，動詞，表示持續(xù)的意思。根據(jù)句意，故填last。

【2】根據(jù)短文第一句話“You may already know that hurricanes are storms that can cause devastating(毀滅性的)waves，wind，and rain．（颶風(fēng)會引起毀滅性的巨浪，大風(fēng)和大雨是颶風(fēng)所帶來的結(jié)果）�！笨芍�，兩者是因果關(guān)系，毀滅性的巨浪，大風(fēng)和大雨是颶風(fēng)所帶來的結(jié)果。故填results。

【3】本句的句意是根據(jù)風(fēng)速，颶風(fēng)可以被分成5個種類。Divide，動詞，分種類的意思；根據(jù)句意，這里是divide的被動式，divided。

【4】句意：根據(jù)短文第二段，第五種颶風(fēng)類型時速155英里/時，足夠可以摧毀海岸線的所有建筑。Building，名詞，建筑的意思。

【5】根據(jù)該空右邊表格里的內(nèi)容，可知這是在講述颶風(fēng)所帶來的危害。Danger，名詞，危害；這里講述的不是一種危害，故用danger的復(fù)數(shù)形式，在詞尾加s。

【6】該句句意是，當颶風(fēng)伴隨著暴雨來臨時，一場可怕的洪水就有可能會發(fā)生。Flood，名詞，洪水。根據(jù)句意，故填Flood。

【7】句意：風(fēng)眼是颶風(fēng)的中心。當風(fēng)眼過后，風(fēng)和雨就會再次加重。centre／center，名詞，中心。

【8】根據(jù)Hurricane Safety Tips（颶風(fēng)安全小貼士）一欄，“There is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction（沒有什么方式能夠阻止颶風(fēng)或者改變方向）�！笨芍�，本處需要填一個否定詞，impossible，形容詞，不可能的，符合題意。

【9】Forget，動詞，忘記。本句句意為，如果你發(fā)覺你要遇上颶風(fēng)時，不要忘記這些安全建議。

【10】句意：當暴風(fēng)雨來臨時，待在室內(nèi)，否則你將會受重傷的。根據(jù)句意，本題是要填一個轉(zhuǎn)折詞，or／otherwise，否則，正符合題意。
