Several thousand people were left without power in Kent County. One woman suffered minor head and neck injuries."It felt as if the whole house was being slid across like a fun-fair ride," said the woman.The British Geological Survey said the 4. 3-magnitude quake struck at 8.. 19 a. m. and was centered under the English Channel, about 8.5 miles south of Dover and near the entrance to the Channel Tunnel.Witnesses said cracks appeared in walls and chimneys collapsed across the county. Residents said the tremor had lasted for about 10 to 15 seconds."I was lying in bed and it felt as if someone had just got up from bed next to me. "said Hendrick van Eek,27, of Canterbury about 60 miles southeast of London. "I then heard the sound of cracking, and it was getting heavier and heavier. It felt as if someone was at the end of my bed hopping up and down. "There are thousands of moderate quakes on this scale around the world each year,but they are rare in Britain. The April 28 quake was the strongest in Britain since 2002 when a 4. 8-magnitude quake struck the central England city of Birmingham.The country’s strongest earthquake took place in the North Sea in 1931 ,measuring 6.1 on the Richter scale. British Geological Survey scientist Roger Musson said the quake took place on 28 April in an area that had seen several of the biggest earthquakes ever to strike Britain, including one in 1580 that caused damage in London and was felt in France. Musson predicted that it was only a matter of time before another earthquake struck this part of England. However, people should not be scared too much by this prediction, Musson said,as the modern earthquake warning system of Britain should be able to detect a forthcoming quake and announce it several hours be- fore it takes place. This would allow time for people to evacuate and reduce damage to the minimum.During the April 28 earthquake,the whole England was left without power. （）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned2The Channel Tunnel was closed for 10 hours after the earthquakeoccurred. （）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned3It was reported that one lady had got her head and neck injured but not seriously. （）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned4France and several other European countries sent their medical teams to work side by side with the British doctors. （）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned5Many walls and chimneys were damaged during this quake. （）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned6The April 28 quake was stronger than the one of 2002. （）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned7The cotmtrys strongest earthquake took place in London in 1580. （）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned8Musson predicted that another earthquake would occur in southeast England sooner or later. （）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned9It can he inferred from the passage that England is rarely hit byhigh magnitude earthquakes. （）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned10The modern earthquake warning system of Britain could detect aforthcoming quake. （）A.RihtB.WrongC.Not mentioned第二部分：阅读选择(第11～15题，每题2分，共10分)阅读下面，请从短文后所给各题的4个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出1个选项。11回答11-15题Centers of the Great European CitiesThe centers of the great cities of Europe are meeting places by tradition. People gather there to drink coffee and chat late into the night. A mixture of locals and tourists make for an exciting, metropolitan atmosphere.Squares, plazas (广场) and arcades (拱廊) form the heart of Europe’s cities.Venice in Italy has the Piazza San Marco--a beautiful square surrounded by shops, churches, restaurants and cafes. In Barcelona Spain, La Bosqueria is a lively market with hundreds of stalls selling all kinds of goods. London’s Covent Garden is filled with fruit and vegetable stalls by day and musicians, acrobats(杂技演员) and artists by night. The government buildings at the center of many cities often are architecturally impressive. In London, they serve as a beautiful backdrop(背景)to the coffee tables that line the streets and the banks of the Thames.These vibrant(有活力的)hearts are the product of centuries of evolution, social historian Joel Garreau told US News and World Report recently. "The reason people think Venice is so great today is you don’t see all the mistakes. "said Garreau. "Those have all been removed. " Most European cities were laid out before the invention of the car. So bars, restaurants and cafes were near to people’s homes. Today the focus of many Europeans’ life has moved away from the centers. They live in the suburbs and outskirts, driving to suoermarkets to get their supplies. But on a continent where people treasure convention, there are still those who hold onto traditional ways living and shopping locally. These people, together with tourists, provide the city centers with their reason for existence.Coffee culture plays a part in keeping these city centers flourishing. This is particularly true of Paris whose citizens are famous enthusiastic conversationalists. This skill is developed over many hours spent chatting over espressos(浓咖啡)and cigarettes.Religion also plays a role in developing sociable atmosphere. People in Roman Catholic countriesused to visit the Church on an almost daily basis. Entire communities would gather in the same building and then move out to the markets. Cafes and bars in the surrounding streets. An enormous example of this relationship between church and society is the Duomo. The huge marble cathedral in Florence Italy is surrounded by bakeries and coffee shops, and caters not only to the tourist crowds, but also the local community.It can be inferred from the first paragraph that each big city in Europe. （）A.has many large squaresB.has many very magnificent sky’-scrapersC.draws tourists in large numbers every yearD.has a center where tourists meet their spouses12Which statement is NOT true of Covent Garden? （）A.It is crowded with people.B.It is located in London.C.It is filled with stalls.D.It is surrounded by shops,churches, restaurants and cafes.13Why do people think that Venice is so great? （）A.Because it is a famous tourist attraction.B.Because you can reach anywhere by boat.C.Because it is well-known for its merchants.D.Because all the mistakes have been removed.14What are Parisians famous for? （）A.Their pursuit of independenceB.Their enthusiasm for conversation.C.Their ability to keep the city tlourishing.D.Their devotion to developing a multiple culture.15The writer cites the Duomo in the last paragraph as an example to illustrate that. （）A.there is a tight link between church and societyB.all churches are magnificentC.old churches are very popularD.hi h-rise churches are impressive第三部分：概括段落大意和补全句子(第16-25题。每题1分。共10分)阅读下面短文。请完成短文后的2项测试任务：(1)从第l6～20题后所给的6个选项中为第①～⑤段每段选择l个正确的小标题；(2)从第21～25题后所给的6个选项中选择5个正确选项。分别完成每个句子。16回答16-25题Friendly Rdations with the People Around__①__You depend on all the people closely around to give you the warm feeling of belongingness that you must have to feet secure.
