Natural disasters are terrible events. They are difficult fr adults and children. But adults shuld nt be afraid t talk t children abut natural disasters. Talking can nt stp natural disasters frm happening. But talking can help children feel safer and less afraid f the future. Here are five things adults can d when children shw fear f natural disasters.
First, adults shuld be willing t talk with children. When children are allwed t talk abut their fears, they feel safer. Smetimes, the best thing an adult can d is just listen. Whatever the fear, it is imprtant t listen and be patient with the child.
Secnd, let children ask questins. When answering their questins, it is best t give shrt, hnest answers. If yu d nt knw the answer, yu can be hnest and say that yu d nt knw.
Third, it is imprtant t wait until a child is ready t talk abut a natural disaster. Adults shuld nt frce children t talk.
Furth, help children feel safe. There are many ways t d this. One way is very simple：adults can tell frightened children that they lve them. It is als imprtant fr children t d the same things they d every day. Simple things like ging t schl and eating dinner can help children feel nrmal.
Fifth, use activities t help children cmmunicate their fears. Heshani was 13 when the Indian Ocean tsunami ruined her huse in Sri Lanka. One year later, she was still living under the shadw (阴影) f the natural disaster. She did nt like t visit her ruined huse. And she did nt want t talk abut the prblems her family had. Hwever, she lved t write. And she ften shared her feelings abut the tsunami in her pems. Writing pems was a way fr her t share her fears since she did nt like t talk abut them.

“What’s it abut?” Margie asked.
“Schl.” replied Tmmy, turning the yellw pages.
“Why wuld anyne write abut schl? I hpe they can take my gegraphy teacher away.”
“It’s nt ur schl. This is the ld srt that they had centuries ag.”
“Anyway, they had a teacher.” Margie said, reading the bk ver his shulder.
“Sure, they had a teacher, but it wasn’t a regular teacher. It was a man.”
“A man? Hw culd a man be a teacher?”
“Well, he just tld the bys and girls things and gave them assignments and asked them questins.”
“A man isn’t smart enugh.”
“Sure, he is. My father knws as much as my teacher.”
Margie wasn’t prepared t argue abut that. She said, “I wuldn’t want a strange man in my huse t teach me.”
Tmmy laughed. “The teachers didn’t live in the huse. They had a special building and all the kids went there.”
“And all the kids learned the same thing?”
“Sure, if they were the same age.”
“But my mther says a teacher has t be adjusted t fit the mind f each by and girl it teaches and that each kid has t be taught differently.”
“If yu dn’t like it, yu dn’t have t read the bk.”
“I didn’t say I didn’t like it,” Margie said quickly.
They weren’t even half-finished when Margie’s mther called, “Margie! Schl!”
“Nt yet, Mamma.”

Margie went int the schlrm, right next t her bedrm, and the mechanical teacher was n waiting fr her.
The screen was lit up, and it said, “Please insert yesterday’s assignments in the prper slt.”
Margie was still thinking abut the ld schls they had when her grandfather’s grandfather was a little by. All the kids frm the whle neighbrhd came, laughing and shuting in the schlyard, sitting tgether in the schlrm, ging hme tgether at the end f the day.

A reprt frm the UN warns that cuntries’ current cmmitments wuld reduce carbn by nly abut 7.5% by 2030, far less than the 45% cut, which scientists say is needed t limit glbal temperature rises t 1.5°C, the aim f the COP26 summit.
Antóni Guterres, the UN secretary-general, described the findings as a “thundering wake-up call” t wrld leaders, while experts called fr actin against fssil fuel cmpanies.
Althugh mre than 100 cuntries have prmised t reach net zer emissins arund mid-century, this wuld nt be enugh t avid climate disasters, accrding t the UN emissins reprt, which examines the shrtfall (差额) between cuntries intentins and actins needed n the climate. Many f the net zer cmmitments were fund t be unclear, and unless accmpanied by strict cuts in emissins this decade wuld allw glbal heating f a ptentially disastrus extent.
Guterres said: “The heat is n, and as the cntents f the reprt shw, the leadership we need is ff. Far ff. Cuntries are wasting a massive pprtunity t invest Cvid-19 finance and recvery resurces in sustainable, cst-saving, planet-saving ways. As wrld leaders prepare fr COP26, that is anther thundering wake-up call. Hw many d we need?”
Inger Andersen, the directr f the UN Envirnment Prgramme (UNEP) said: “Climate change is n lnger a future prblem. It is a nw prblem. T stand a chance f limiting glbal warming t 1.5℃, we have 8 years t almst halve greenhuse gas emissins: 8 years t make the plans, put in place the plicies, carry them ut and deliver the cuts. The clck is ticking ludly.”
Emissins fell by abut 5. 4% last year during Cvid lckdwns, the reprt fund, but nly abut ne-fifth f the ecnmic recvery spending ges twards reducing carbn emissins. This failure t “build back better”, despite prmises by gvernments arund the wrld, cast dubt n the wrld’s willingness t make the ecnmic shift necessary t settle the climate crisis, the UN said.
In the run-up t COP26, cuntries were suppsed t submit (递交) natinal plans t cut emissins—called natinally determined cntributins (NDCs) —fr the next decade, a requirement under the 2015 Paris climate agreement. But the UNEP reprt fund nly half f cuntries had submitted new NDCs, and sme gvernments had presented weak plans.
8. Why were the findings described as a “thundering wake-up call” in Para. 2?
A. Because the wrld has failed t live up t its current cmmitments.
B. Because the pprtunities presented by cvid-19 have been wasted.
C. Because the wrld is falling behind in slwing dwn temperature rises.
D. Because the serius prblems were brught abut by glbal fssil fuels.
9. The ptential harm f glbal warming can be reduced if ________.
A. current cmmitments f many cuntries remain unchanged
B. huge gaps are bridged between previus and present prpsals
C. glbal sustainable envirnmental resurces develps significantly
D. strict measures are taken t reduce emissins in the cming ten years
10. What is the writer’s purpse f quting “Hw many d we need?” in Para. 4?
A T shw the number f alarm clcks required.
B. T explain the reasn fr the wrld’s wasting chances.
C. T ask fr the number f the cuntries attending the meeting.
D. T stress the need t make the mst f resurces and reduce emissins.
11. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A. Few cuntries have submitted plans t reduce the emissins.
B. Many cuntries’ plans t cut emissins are far frm satisfactry.
C. Mst f the cuntries wrk under the Paris Climate Agreement.
D. Much prgress in reducing emissins has been made these years.
D
What is the mst shcking abut the heatwave affecting the Pacific Nrthwest is nt that it has hit a usually mild area, nr that s many lng-standing temperature recrds are being brken. It is that thse recrds are being brken by such large margins (幅度). In Prtland, Oregn, temperature reached 46.6℃(116°F) — making it ne f several cities in the regin where frmer recrds have been beaten by a full 5℃(9°F). At the same time, heatwaves are als hitting central Eurpe and even Siberia.
Heatwaves may becme headlines, but less attentin is paid t them. In 2018 abut 300,000 peple ver the age f 65 died as a result f extreme heat, mainly in India, a 54% increase since 2000, accrding t a reprt in the Lancet, a medical jurnal. The reprt als shws that, unlike strms and flds, heat des nt lead t dramatic befre-and-after pictures r widespread damage t belngings. It is a silent killer. As many as 70,000 peple died due t a heatwave in Eurpe in 2003.
Heat als kills by wrsening health cnditins such as heart prblems, s nt all the deaths it causes may be directly attributed (归因) t it. Climate change will make heatwaves mre cmmn and mre extreme. Even if greenhuse-gas emissins (排放) are cut t zer by the middle f this century, temperatures will g n rising fr decades. S ther measures are needed t prtect peple against extreme heat.
Gvernments can set up early warning systems t alarm health wrkers, shut dwn schls and stp utdr activities. They can prvide the public with frecasts f cming heatwaves, explanatins f the dangers and detailed advice n what t d. Imprved facilities can als help. This includes prviding shaded areas, water parks and “misting statins” t help peple cl dwn, and get t aircnditined “cling centers” where they can find shelter and sleep if necessary.
The wrld is, undubtedly, facing a big health challenge right nw. There is n excuse fr ignring heatwaves and their effects.
12. What shcks us mst abut the heatwave in the Pacific Nrthwest?
A. It has stricken a usually mild area.
B. It hits central Eurpe except Siberia.
C. Many temperature recrds are being brken.
D. Many recrds are being brken by large margins.
13. What can we learn frm the reprt in the Lancer?
A. Peple have paid much attentin t heatwaves.
B. Heat desn’t cause widespread damage t belngings.
C. The damage f heat is as bvius as strms and flds.
D. Abut 300,000 middle-aged peple died frm extreme heat.
14. What can gvernments d t prtect peple against heatwaves?
A. Prvide sme cl places.B. Build nursing hmes.
C. Organize utdr activities.D. Shelter the hmeless.
15. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Imprving Public FacilitiesB. Taking Heatwaves Seriusly
C. Preventing Natural DisastersD. Reducing Greenhuse-gas Emissin
