2、Therewerewarningsagainstthe2004tsunamibutthewarningscouldn'treachthe

spot.

A、Y

B、N

C>NG

标准答案：Y

知识点解析：题目是对原文该句中第2个分旬andalthough…的近义改写，因此本

题答案为Y。

3、Generallyspeaking,therearetwodestructivetsunamiseveryyeararoundtheworld.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：N

知识点解析：题目将原文该句中的Pacificbasin换成了theworld,改变了原句的范

围、，因此本题答案为N。

4、Mosttsunamisaretriggeredbyearthquakesbeneaththeseaandonlyafewby

earthquakesalongcoastlines.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：NG

知识点解析：原文没有从数量上比较由海底地震引发的海啸和由海岸地震引发的地

震，题目中的most,afew这些与数量有关的信息元法证实，因此本题答案为

NGo

5、Onlyverticaldisplacementofoceanfloorcausedbyearthquakesgeneratestsunamis.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：Y

知识点解析：题目是对原文该句的近义改写，内容相同，因此本题答案为Y。

6、Inthe1960SouthAmericatsunami,whenthethirdwavecame,itreachedtheheight

of.

标准答案：11meters

知识点解析：空白处应为名词(词组)。只要根据题限定位thethirdwave,答案不难

找到，原文中的arun-upofl1m表明本题答案为11meterso

7、ItispossibleforanearlywarningtoalertHawaiiabouttsunamisbecause

Hawaii.

标准答案：is(locatcd)farfrommostofthesourcesoftsunami

知识点解析：空白处应为从句的谓语部分。原文该句where引出的定语从句与主句

形成隐含的因果关系。从句的内容是结果，主句的内容是原因，由此可见，本题答

案可通过去掉主句中的

8、TheNOAAoftheU.S.setupthePacificTsunamiWarningCenterinthestate

of.

标准答案：Hawaii

知识点解析：agoodexampleofallarea剩下的成分构成答案所需的谓语结构。

9、TsunamiwarningcentersinJapan,Kamchatka,Alaska,Hawaii,FrenchPolynesia,

andChilearesetupinordertoissuewarningsabouttsunamisthat.

标准答案：arcgeneratedwithin100to750kmofanearthquake

知识点解析：空口处应为名词性成分，而且应该是一个美国的州名。原文该段第2

旬末提到的〔heCenter就是首句中提到的thePacificTsunamiWarningCenter,第2

句末明确表明该中心位于夏威夷州，因此本题答案为Hawaiio

10^Peopleshouldbeawarethatatsunamimaybesignaledbyastrongearthquake

or.

标准答案：riseorfallofcoastalwaters

知识点解析：空白处应为定语从句，可能包括主谓成分，也可能只包括谓语成分。

根据题眼定位原文后可以发现，题目的定语从句的内容应该与原文该段首句中

tsunami的修饰成分相同，所不同的是原文该修饰成分为后置的分词短语作定语，

而题目要求将其改写为从句，因此只要在原文该分词结构前加上be动词arc,就可

与题目中的mat构成完整的定语从句。

11、Youmaytakeshelteronupperfloorsofhigh,multi-story,reinforcedconcretehotels

whenitisimpossibleto.

标准答案：quicklymoveinlandortohigherground

知识点解析：空白处应为名词（词组），意为与earthquake并列的预示海啸即将发生

的预兆。原文该部分第1点和第3点分别指出了两个预示海啸即将发生的预兆，其

中earthquake在第1点提到，第3点中的herald与题目中的signal都有“预示”的意

思，因此，第3点提到的riseorfallofcoastalwaters为本题答案。
