(1)Last night eight million people in 16 U.S. states were under a flood warning.
It was what remained of a heavy storm system that struck in late December, stretching from New Mexico to Michigan and going its way east.
It brought several powerful tornadoes to Texas, destroying homes and buildings near Dallas.
Hailstorms, snowstorms, hundreds of flight cancellations hit the central part of the country and (2)dozens of people died in the severe conditions brought by the system.
For some, the worst of it came well after the storm hit, as flood waters flowed in the rivers, they covered their banks and spilled through communities.
The Mississippi flooded parts of Illinois and its swollen water slowly spread out along the Mississippi southern part
It’s not expected to reach its highest point in Memphis, Tennessee, until January 9th.
1. What’s the news report mainly about?
2. What do we learn about the storm system from the news report?
选项
A、The effects of floods in the U.S.
B、A heavy storm system struck the U.S.
C、U.S. states were facing floods threats.
D、Tornadoes destroyed homes in the U.S.
答案
C
解析
新闻开门见山提出主旨:美国16个州正面临洪水危机(under a flood warning),紧接着介绍暴风雨引发的一系列美国洪灾。因此新闻主旨就是“美国正面临洪灾危机”。C正确。A“美国洪灾的影响”只在新闻结尾提到,是部分内容,并非主旨。B“一次严重暴风雨袭击美国”虽然有在新闻中提到,但这只是说明美国洪灾的起因,而不是主要内容。D错在Tornadoes,新闻说的是洪灾(flood),而非卷风。
