The City of Christchurch, New Zealand was struck by a 7.1?magnitude earthquake on the early morning of Saturday, September 4, 2010.

No tsunami alert was reported. The country's army troops were on standby to assist victims and disaster recovery operation. New Zealand's Prime Minister John Key, flew to the affected area to inspect and assess the situation of the damaged city. The Prime Minister said that the full assessment of the damages would possibly take months to know the severity of damages. Based from his assessment on what he saw in the area, it could cost at least 2 billion New Zealand dollars or US$1.4 billion for reconstruction.

“An absolute miracle that no one died,” Prime Minister John Key said. Two were seriously injured from this quake and thousands of local residents were awakened after being shaken at 4:35 a.m. of that Saturday.

There were people trapped inside the damaged buildings but fortunately none were reported dead from the rubble of the damaged buildings.

“We're all feeling scared—we've just had some significant aftershocks,” a survivor told TV One News. “Tonight we're just people in the face of a massive natural disaster, trying to help each other and we're grateful we haven't lost a life.”

GNS Science reported 29 aftershocks within the 14 hours after the quake, with strength from magnitude 3.7 to 5.4.

New_Zealand_is_no_stranger_to_earthquakes. The country experiences more than 14,000 earthquakes a year—but only about 150 are felt by people.

“Many buildings here were built with earthquake protection measure. However, in most cities in developing countries, people build how they want to and there're no building controls to force them to build to a higher standard that's safe,” Andrew Charleson, an architecture professor at Victoria University of Wellington told CNN.

1.How many people were killed in the New Zealand earthquake on September 4, 2010?

A.250,000. B.29. C.2. D.0.

2.After the earthquake, all of the following occurred EXCEPT that________.

A.a number of aftershocks broke out

B.army troops were there to help

C.no people were injured or killed

D.the full assessment of the damages can't take in a short time

3.What does the writer want to say by quoting Professor Andrew Charleson's words in the last paragraph?

A.Earthquakes are much more terrible and bigger in developing countries.

B.Lacking of money, developing countries can't build safe buildings.

C.Building controls are the guarantee of safe buildings.

D.In developing countries, people have more freedom to design their buildings the way they like.

4.What does the underlined sentence mean?

A.Earthquakes break out frequently in New Zealand.

B.The earthquakes breaking out in New Zealand are very strange.

C.The earthquakes breaking out in New Zealand are unusual.

D.Earthquakes rarely hit New Zealand.

5.What's the main idea of the passage?

C.New Zealand has strict laws to guarantee the buildings' safety.

D.A miracle happened in the terrible earthquake.

Elephants are able to differentiate between ethnicities(种族) and sexes, and can tell an adult from a child --- all from the sound of a human voice.

This is according to a study in which researchers played voice recordings to wild African elephants.

The animals showed more fear when they heard the voices of adult Masai men.

Livestock-herding Masai people do come into conflict with elephants, and this suggests that animals have adapted to specifically listen for and avoid them.

The study is published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Prof Karen McComb and Dr Graeme Shannon from the University of Sussex led the study. They explained that in previous research they had used similar playback experiments to show that elephants could tell --- from the sound of a lion’s roar --- whether the animal was a female or a more dangerous male.

Prof McComb wanted to find out if the animals used their very sharp sense of hearing to identify a potential danger from humans.

The scientists recorded Masai men, women and children saying, in their own language, “Look, look over there, a group of elephants is coming”.

They also recorded Kamba men saying this phrase.

While cattle-herding Masai people often come across free-ranging elephants, which can result in violent conflict, the Kamba people’s more agricultural lifestyle does not generally bring them into aggressive touch with the animals.

When the team played recordings of these different voices through a hidden loudspeaker, they found that elephant family groups reacted more fearfully in response to the voice of a Masai man, than to a Kamba man’s voice.

And the adult male Masai voices encouraged far more of these defensive reactions than the voices of women or boys.

1.An elephant can tell a man from a woman by sense of ________.

A. touch B. sight C. smell D. hearing

2.How did the researchers get to know the elephants’ special ability of identification?

A. By observing the elephants in the zoo.

B. By playing voice recordings to them.

C. By recording the behaviours of elephants.

D. By communicating with them in a special way.

3.We can learn from the passage that elephants are especially afraid of ________.

A. Masai men B. Masai women

C. Kamba men D. Kamba women

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A. Elephants and human beings

B. Differences between human voices

C. Elephants recognise human voices

D. Elephants conflict with human beings
