Earthquakes are something that people fear. There are some places that have few or no earthquakes. Most places in the world, however, have them regularly. Countries that have a lot of earthquakes are usually quite mountainous.
The most talked about earthquake in the United States was in San Francisco in 1906. Over 700 people died in it. The strongest one in North America was in 1964. It happened in Alaska.
Strong earthquakes are not always the ones that kill the most people. In 1755, one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded was felt in Portugal. Around 2,000 people died.
In 1923, a very strong earthquake hit the Tokyo, Yokohama area of Japan. A hundred and forty thousand people died. Most of them died in fires which followed the earthquake.
One of the worst earthquakes ever was in China in 1976. It killed a large number of people. The worst earthquake ever reported was also in China, in which 400,000 people were killed or injured. This earthquake happened in 1556.
Earthquakes worry people a lot. The reason is that we often do not know when they are coming. People can not prepare for them.

五、七选五（每小题3分，共15分）
Studies have shown that walking among trees makes us relaxed. 30 There’s plenty of research showing the link between being in nature and being happy, but most of the research has focused on adults.
31 Explaining the motivation behind the study, researchers note that with environmental issues such as global warming, more studies are focusing on the relationships between humans and nature to find solutions to these problems, and the future of the planet lies in the hands of children and their actions. However, few studies focus on this aspect.
For the study, researchers worked with 296 children between the ages of 9 and 12. To measure how connected they were to nature, the kids were asked how much they enjoy activities like seeing wildflowers and wild animals, hearing sounds of nature and touching animals and plants. 32 They also found that the more concerned children were about the environment and nature, the more likely they were to be happy.
So exposure to nature is related to active behaviors and happiness of children. What does that mean to adults? As we all know, children usually tend to follow adults’, especially their parents’ behaviors. That’s to say, when adults are outside and appreciate nature, kids learn by example. 33
Researchers say that children need role models who can gently guide them to nature with excitement and an attitude of a lifelong learner. 34 What’s more important is that they spend time together with children by exploring a fun and safe environment.
A. It’s so good going for a walk around trees.
B. Even just smelling the trees helps reduce anxiety.
C. And if parents enjoy being close to nature, so will their children.
D. Parents don’t have to be experts in environmental science or nature studies.
E. They found that the kids connected to nature were more likely to behave actively.
F. In a new study researchers wanted to see if kids get the same benefits from being outdoors.
G. Researchers will study more about the connection between children’s happiness and nature.

30.空格前句：研究表明，在树林中散步能使我们放松。B项（即使只是闻一下树木的气味也有助于减轻焦虑。）和前句构成递进关系。所以B项切题。故选B项。
31.空格后文：在解释这项研究背后的动机时，研究人员指出，随着全球变暖等环境问题的出现，越来越多的研究关注人类与自然之间的关系，以找到解决这些问题的办法，而地球的未来掌握在孩子和他们的行动手中。然而，这方面的研究很少。，F项（在一项新的研究中，研究人员想看看孩子们是否能从户外活动中获得同样的好处。）中提到的in a new study和后句的“Explaining the motivation behind the study”是同一个研究。同时后句提到的内容是前句提到研究的原因。所以F项切题。故选F项。

34.空格前句：研究人员说，孩子们需要榜样，他们能以富有激情和终身学习者的态度慢慢地引导孩子们接触大自然。空格后句：更重要的是，他们会花时间和孩子们一起探索一个有趣而安全的环境。可知D选项（父母不必是环境科学或自然研究方面的专家。）在此处起承上启下的作用。所以选D项。
