The Prime Minister of Samoa says 77 people were killed and 150 injured by a tsunami in the South Pacific. At least 24 people died on American Samoa. Thousands of people’s homes have been destroyed and the final number of deaths is expected to be higher as reports from Sydney.
A cruel act of nature has destroyed parts of Samoa and neighboring American Samoa. The rescue effort is continuing with pledges of international support led by the United States. The number of dead has slowly increased since the tsunami struck after dawn and there are fears it will keep on rising as emergency teams reach isolated areas. Foreign tourists including a British baby and a 6-year-old Australian girl are among the deaths. Officials believe that many of the victims were washed out to sea as their homes were destroyed by waves reportedly up to 11 meters high.
3. How many people were kitted by the tsunami on American Samoa?
4. What do we learn about the tsunami from the news report?
选项
A、A 6-year-old Australian girl died in the tsunami.
B、About 150 houses were destroyed by waves in the tsunami.
C、Australia was the lead of international support in the tsunami.
D、The tsunami was caused by an underwater earthquake.
答案
A
解析
新闻最后提到,丧生的外国游客中包括一名英国婴儿与一名6岁大的澳大利亚女孩。所以A正确。新闻中提到成千上万的家园被摧毁,并没有提及被破坏房屋的具体数量,B错误。美国是国际援助行动的带头人,不是澳大利亚,C错误。新闻中没有提到引起海啸的原因,D与新闻不符。
