35,000 wildfires every year.Australia has on average 60,000 each year.These fires destroy huge areas of forests and burn hundreds of homes.Many experts believe there are several reasons for this sudden increase in fires.The first reason is climate change.Recent weather has been warmer and drier.This leads to dangerous fire conditions.When lightning strikes,dry grass easily catches fire.Hot winds add to the problem.The wind spreads a fire quickly.In 2010,Russia had the hottest and driest summer in a century.In just one month,500 fires destroyed over 2,000 homes.Some people lost their lives.Traditional fire-fighting practices are another reason for the increase in fires.In America,firefighters used to quickly put out every fire.They didnt allow the grass and trees to burn.As a result,today many forests have thicker vegetation (植被).Thicker vegetation means more fuel (燃料)for fires.Also,without fires from time to time,forests become overcrowded and unhealthy.Some trees are dead.The dead wood then easily catches fire.So surprisingly,America has many more fires today partly because of its past fire-fighting practices.Scientists now understand that a fire can be a natural part of a healthy forest.As a result,countries like Australia allow more fires to burn naturally.Sometimes,firefighters even start fires to get rid of dead wood.Of course,they carefully control the fires.The fire thins out old trees.This allows sunlight to reach the ground.As a result,fires help new trees to grow.Therefore,if a fire is not a serious threat to people,firefighters may let it burn naturally.1.Why did Russia have so many fires in one month in 2010?A.Because lightning spread the fire.B.Because there was much fuel for fires.C.Because there were not enough firefighters.D.Because it was unusually hot,dry and windy.2.What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?A.Fires are serious threats to human beings.B.Australian firefighters dont put out fires.C.Fires can play an important role in the forests.D.Its difficult for firefighters to control the fires.3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Not all the fires in the forests must be put out.B.Peoples carelessness leads to dangerous fires.C.Australia allows all the fires to burn naturally.D.There are more fires in Russia than in the USA.四、阅读七选五Being an exchange student(交换生) may not be so easy.However, there are a lot of things that you can learn and enjoy when you decide to be an exchange student, and most things you will discover are outside the classroom. 1 Students who come back from an exchange trip say that the thing they liked most was learning about the different lifestyles that people have in the country they visited. 2 However,those who travel to other countries under the foreign exchange student program learn that there are many different ways to live.Different Food Some students are worried that they won't like the food of the country where they will go,and they use that as an excuse to avoid going to that country. 3 Being an exchange student often leads you to find that you enjoy much more kinds of food than you thought you did.Different LanguagesSome decide that the language barrier (障碍)is the key to keeping them from going anywhere as an exchange student. 4 There are also some places where most of the people can speak English well.If you are coming up with reasons to avoid going anywhere as an exchange student, think about the benefits you will get from a trip abroad before you make up your mind. 5 ADifferent LifestylesBDifferent CulturesCAnyway, think twice
