We even know where and when some disasters, like typhoons and floods, will happen. While most of the new technologies are far away from us, some around us can help people in disasters.②The drone（无人机）is one of them. It can be used to send food and water when a natural disaster happens. Very often the buildings are too dangerous for rescue teams to get in. They can make the drone fly into the buildings to search for those who are still alive first. Drones are also becoming a useful tool for firefighters, helping them find and fight wildfires. In some faraway places in the world, drones are the fastest way to send medicine to people in need.③Social media is also a useful tool when it comes to natural disasters. With its help, people can know about the natural disasters before they happen. And some social media platforms allow people to mark themselves safe after disasters, so others can know their situations. Social media is also a place for up-to-date news, so people can learn what is going on in disaster areas. Besides, many social media platforms allow people to donate money to help people in disaster areas. The money will help them get back to their normal life as soon as possible. For example, live streaming（直播）helped raise a lot of money for Henan afterthe flood in 2021.④Although these technologies can help when there is a natural disaster, we still need to prepare necessary tools and learn important skills to protect ourselves.26. (  ) What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refer to（指的是）?A. Buildings.B. New technologies.C. Rescue teams.D. Natural disasters.27. (  ) Why does the writer mention live streaming?A. To show people can tell others they are safe through social media.B. To show people can know the coming disaster on social media.C. To show social media can provide the latest news for people.D. To show social media can help raise money after a disaster.28. (  ) What can we know from the passage?A. The drone helped save a lot of people in Henan in 2021.B. The drone can help search for people who are still alive.C. All technologies can protect people from different disasters.D. We needn’t prepare tools for disasters with the help of new technologies.29. (  ) Which can be the best title for the text?A. Some Ways about How to Protect Ourselvesin DisastersB. Some Natural Disasters That Are Harmful to PeopleC. Some Methods That Can Protect the EnvironmentD. Some Technologies That Can Help People in Disasters30. (  ) Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?四、阅读还原（有两项多余）（每小题2分，共10分）The weather report says there is a small chance of thunderstorms, but you can only see a few white clouds overhead. So, you and your tennis partner head for the playground. Wait! Is that thunder you hear? Is that a flash of lightning? 31.      Go inside right away.Although you are not sure of being struck（被击中）by lightning, some situations can put you at greaterrisk. If people work outdoors, lightning most often strikes them. 32.      From 2006 to 2021, lightning caused an average of 28 deaths every year in the United States.33.      You can protect yourself from the risk even though you are outside when lightning is close by. When the thunder roars, go inside. Find safe places. If there are no safe places nearby, you should stay off high areas and keep yourself as low as possible.34.      In fact, about one-third of lightning strike injuries happen indoors（室内）. Be sure to avoid touching water during a thunderstorm, and avoid using electronic equipment（电子设备）.Lightning strikes may be rare（少见的）. 35.      Take thunderstorms seriously, and follow the above safety rules to keep yourself safe. 五、短文填空（每小题2分，共20分）When Mother Nature gets really mad, there’s not much we can do to stop her.

Floods happen nearly every summer. Today I’d like to talk about how to protect ourselves in the flood.Firstly, we should often watch the news about the flood during the rainy season. We need to prepare water, food and medicine before the disaster comes. Secondly, when there is a flood, we must move to higher places at once and stay there to wait for rescue. Remember not to try to swim through the flood water. Thirdly, if the flood washes us away, we should keep calm. We can catch something made of wood and it can help us get out of the water. If we need help, we can also call the police.Floods can be dangerous, but knowing what to do can save lives.Drop to the floor.Earthquakes always happen without much warning, so it’s recommended that you drop to the floor as soon as an earthquakehappens.Take cover.Get under a strong table or desk. If possible, stay away from glass windows, outside doors and walls, and anything that could fall. If there isn’t a table or a desk near you, cover your face and head with your arms and crouch（蹲）in an inside corner of the building.Hold on.The ground may be shaking and objects could be falling. Hold on to whatever surface or platform you’ve been under and wait for the shaking to stop. If you are unable to find a surface to hide under, continue to keep your head protected by your arms.Remain inside.Studies have shown that most injuries happen when people try to change the place of hiding or when the place is crowded and everyone has a goal to get outside. So remain inside until it’s safe to get out.A. What can you do properly?B. Protect yourself from lightning strikes.C. The results of lightning strikes are serious.D. Being indoors does not protect you from lightning totally（完全地）.E. You should also learn how to ask for help.F. But they still happen, and the risk of serious injuries is high.G. Who can help you now?we, brave, cause, earthquake, nature, upset, stop, have, or, life
