素養(yǎng)視角：自然災(zāi)難

It was June 8, 1816 and it was early summer in Vermont, US. Yet, a wild snowstorm was going on. Nearly a foot of snow covered the fields which had been planted crops only weeks before. This storm would kill all of the crops. At the time, people struggled to understand what had caused the weather to change so wildly. It is only now, more than 200 years later, that scientists have finally solved the mystery. The cause of the extreme weather was an event that took place a year earlier and 10,000 miles away. It all started with a volcano called Mount Tambora.

Mount Tambora sits on the island of Sumbawa, a beautiful land with rushing streams, gentle hills, and thick jungles in Indonesia. Nobody had any reason to think the peaceful mountain was in fact a volcano.It had been asleep for centuries, but on April 5,1815,Mount Tambora woke up.

The first eruption shook the island and sent up streams of fire and ash. But that was nothing compared with what would come five days later, on April 10. The volcano exploded with a huge cloud of gas,fire and ash shot high into the sky. The day turned midnight black, but the mountain turned red as rivers of lava（巖漿）flowed down the mountain.

The eruption went on for more than three days, which instantly killed at least 12,000 people living on and around Mount Tambora. Ash and lava ruined the island's soil and poisoned its rivers and streams.Rice fields were destroyed. No fruits or vegetables would grow.

There were no fish to catch; almost every animal had been killed. The eruption of Mount Tambora in 1815 was the deadliest and most powerful volcanic eruption in human history.

1.Why did it snow heavily in Vermont in the summer of 1816?

A.Vermont was located in the southern part of the Earth.

B.Vermont had serious environmental pollution.

C.A faraway volcano had erupted a year earlier.

D.A huge earthquake hit Vermont.

2.What's the purpose of the first paragraph?

A.To lead in the topic.

B.To present an argument.

C.To introduce Vermont.

D.To explain the cause of a volcanic eruption.

3.When did Mount Tambora start erupting?

A.On June 8,1816.

B.On April 13,1816.

C.On April 5,1815.

D.On April 10,1815.

4.What's the main idea of the last paragraph?

A.The process of the eruption was made up of three stages.

B.Mount Tambora asleep for centuries woke up in the end.

C.The eruption of Mount Tambora broke a historic record.

D.The eruption of Mount Tambora led to a terrible disaster.

素養(yǎng)視角：火災(zāi)應(yīng)對(duì)

Would you know what to do if a fire started in your home? Take the time now to review the following safety tips, and your family will be prepared in time of a fire in your home:

1

An escape plan can help every member of a family get out of a burning house. The idea is to get outside quickly and safely. 2 So it is important to learn and remember the different ways out of your home.

Stay low

If you can see smoke in the house,stay low to the ground as you make your way to the exit. 3 You will breathe less smoke if you stay to the ground. Smoke naturally rises, so if there is smoke while you are using your escape route, staying low means you can crawl under most of it.

What if you can't get out right away?

If you can't get out fast because fire or smoke is stopping an escape route, you will want to yell for help. You can do this from an open window or call 119 if you have a phone with you. 4 Then, firefighters will have a hard time finding you. The sooner they find you, the sooner you both can get out.

If your clothes catch fire, what should you do?

Your clothes could catch fire during a fire or by accident if you step too close to a candle. If this happens, don't run!Instead, stop, drop to the ground, cover your face with your hands, and roll. This will cut off the air and put out the flames.5

A.Know your way out.

B.Preventing fires is in the first place!

C. An easy way to remember this is:Stop,Drop,and Roll!

D. Smoke from a fire can make it hard to see where things are.

E. Even if you are scared, never hide under the bed or in a closet.

F. They will help prepare you for what you need to do in case of a fire.

G. In a fire, smoke and poisonous air hurt more people than the actual flames do.
