About half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and a huge hole is made in the sea bed. Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole. The wall of water, a kilometer high, rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour.

It was about traffic in Beijing. From the program Ive learned that a great deal of damage is done by traffic. Some buildings are falling into pieces because of pollution in the city. In fact, much has been done to solve the problem. Some factories have been moved out of the city and natural gas is being used instead of coal. However, pollution is still a serious problem in Beijing. So we should keep trying. Maybe we should encourage people to ride bikes more often instead of driving cars. （B） On the morning of last Friday, Peter went to school as usual. He was walking along the road when he saw a well uncovered. He thought it was dangerous for passers-by, so he decided to cover the well. The cover was so heavy that he took great trouble to remove it. At last he managed to cover the well. Hardly had he turned his back and gone when he heard a cry for “Help”coming from the well. So he turned back and moved the cover away. To his surprise, a worker was inside the well. Peter tried his best to pull the worker out of the well. After that Peter covered the well again properly. 听力原文 I. 听力理解（共两节，满分 15 分） 10 第一节（共 5 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 5 分） 听下面 5 段对话及对话后的问题，从题中所给的 A、B、C 三个选项中选出最佳选项。 每段对话读两遍。 听下面 5 段对话，回答第 1 至 5 题。 1.
