The game he liked best was to fly down into the sea and frighten all the fishes. The fishes became very tired of his game. They asked Hemi, the God of the sea, to help them.So Hemi tried to catch Ratu the next time he flew into the sea, but he was too slow. Ratu laughed at Hemi as he flew past him. This made Hemi angry and he had an idea. He asked the fishes to bring him a lot of seaweed. Hemi tied it all together and made a large net from it. Soon Ratu flew down and Hemi threw the net over him. Ratu fought and fought but could not get free. He was caught.Ratu promised (保证) never to frighten fishes again if Hemi would set him free. But Hemi did not believe him. Instead, he changed Ratu into a mountain in the sea. Ratu was so angry that when he opened his mouth to shout at Hemi, fire and smoke broke out. And that is why the Island of Ratu is a volcano (火山). 1. This story is a _.A. joke B. humor C. true story D. fairy tale2. The key meaning of this story is _.A. how volcanoes are born B. how Ratu was beatenC. why some gods are good and some are bad D. why the Island of Ratu is a volcano3. Ratu liked to fly down into the sea because _.A. he liked to make fun of the fishes B. the fishes welcomed himC. the fishes were friendly to him D. he had too much fire in his mouth.4.

The main point of the story seems to be that _.A. the person who makes trouble will be punishedB. some volcanoes in the sea are godsC. seaweed is a good material for making netsD. one who makes promises is not to be always believedBThe following conversation is between Susan Russell-Robinson from the US Geological（地质学的）Survey and Barbara Reynolds from USA Today. Q: Why, after 600 years of no activity, did Mount Pinatubo in Philippines erupt（喷发）in 1991? A: Volcanoes（火山）each have their own eruption styles. This volcano probably has a rule which makes it erupt in the order of every 500 to 1000 years, but a volcano in Hawaii seems to erupt every year, and some of the Alaskan volcanoes might erupt every 10 or 20 years. Q: So nothing caused it? A: Theres nothing out of the ordinary. If you were to take an ordinary calendar year, 50 to 75 or 80 volcanoes erupt around the world every year. There are 20 to 30 volcanoes every month that show signs of unrest. That might be a full-blown eruption or a whole host of activities like that. Q: What is “the ring of fire”? A: If you look at where active volcanoes are placed around the world, there are somewhere between 500 and 600 of them. There is what appears to be almost a necklace that goes around the Pacific Ocean. It makes a ring where 60% of the worlds volcanoes lie. Q: Why such a concentration（集中）there? A: Thats based on a theory that the oceans and the continents(大陆) are like separate pieces. When they move, one might ride up over the other one. In this case, the Pacific Ocean goes under the continents and when that happens it seems to produce magma（熔岩）at depth and then you have volcanoes in the same ring. 6. What kind of writing do you think this passage is? A. A text taken from a geography book. B. An interview published in the press. C. A conversation carried out in a film. D. An oral test recorded as an example. 7. Which of the following statements can correctly explain why we have so many volcanoes around the Pacific Ocean? A. The movement of the surface of the earth makes it possible. B. The Pacific Ocean produces magma and presses it everywhere. C. The oceans and the continents are separated from each other. D. The earths surface around the Pacific is thinner than any other part.8. Barbara Reynolds main purpose here is _. A. to show how dangerous volcanoes are to the world B. to learn what signs a volcano gives us before its eruption C. to warn the world of the existence of “the ring of fire” D. to introduce some general idea of volcanoes to the public9. Which of the following can be considered as the best conclusion of the conversation? A. There are so many volcanoes in the world and we are always in danger. B. Volcanoes have erupted more frequently than ever before. C. volcanoes are waiting to be better known. D. Something must be done to protect the people near the ring of fire.四、选词填空（从下面词汇框中选择最佳单词并以它的适当形式完成下面句子） in good condition; set sail; protectfrom; be involved in ; in the future; buried in; take oover ; carry out; in return for; set out for; 1.
