3、pecially the last few years，” says Phil Klotzbach, a scientist at an American university. How is a storm formed? Even if scientists know where a storm will happen, winds can suddenly change, carrying the storm to a new direction. “For a hurricane to happen, conditions have to be just right，” Klotzba

4、ch says.First, the ocean water needs to be warm enough so that it evaporates (蒸发) and rises into the air. As it rises, the vapor cools and turns back into liquid. This process gives off heat. This produces energy like an engine that causes winds to increase. It drives the formation of a hurricane.If

5、 wind speed reaches 40 miles per hour, the system is called “tropical storm”， and it gets a name. At 75 miles per hour, it becomes a hurricane.The hurricane season lasts from June to November.

This map shows the chances of an earthquak

39、e in each part of the country. The areas of the map where earthquakes are most likely to occur are called earthquake belts. The government is spending a great deal of money and is working hard to help to discover the answers to these two questions：Can we predict earthquakes?Can we control earthquake

40、s?To answer the first question, scientists are looking very closely at the most active fault (断层) systems in the country, such as the San Andreas fault in California. A fault is a break between two sections of the earths surface. These breaks between sections are the places where earthquakes occur.

41、Scientists look at the faults for changes which might show that an earthquake was about to occur. But it will probably be many years before we can predict earthquakes correctly. And the control of earthquakes is even farther away.However, there have been some interesting developments in the field of

42、 controlling earthquakes. The most interesting development concerns the Rocky Mountain Arsenal earthquakes. Here water was put into a layer of rocks 4,000 metres below the surface of the ground. Shortly after this injection (注射) of water, there was a small number of earthquakes. Scientists have deci

43、ded that the water which was injected into the rocks worked like oil on each other.When the water “oiled” the fault, the fault became slippery and the energy of an earthquake was given out. Scientists are still experimenting at the site of these earthquakes. They have realized that there is a connec

44、tion between the injection of the water and the earthquake activity. They have suggested that it might be possible to use this knowledge to prevent very big, dangerous earthquakes, that is, scientists could inject some kind of fluid like water into faults and change one big earthquake into a number

45、of small, harmless earthquakes.语篇解读：为了提高人们对地震的防范意识，美国政府加大了在防震、预测方面的投入，他们甚至在努力采取措施控制地震的发生。4Earthquakes belts are _.Amaps that show where earthquakes are likely to occurBzones with a high probability of earthquakesCbreaks between two sections of the earths surfaceDthe two layers of earth along a fault

47、 about earthquakes at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal?AThey occur at about 4,000 metres below ground level.BThe injection of water into earthquake faults prevents earthquakes from occurring.CThey are usually caused by the oil in the faults.DHarmful earthquakes could be prevented by causing harmless earth

48、quakes.解析：选 D 细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句可知。7What can be said about the experiments at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal?AThey have no practical value in earthquake prevention.BThey may have practical value in earthquake prevention.CThey are certain to have practical value in earthquake prevention.DNothing is told about their practical value in earthquake prevention.解析：选 B 推理判断题。根据科学家的试验，通过向断裂带注水可以引发小地震
