Answer 1

分析 你永遠不會知道下一次地震將會在何時發生在何地，因此我們需要提前準備，你最好準備下面的這些物品：
1、水：每個人一天光喝水就要喝掉1.5加侖，因此準備能夠維持每個人72小時所需的水．最簡便的方法就是買瓶裝水，不要打開，等到你需要的時候在喝，前提要注意保質期；
2、食物：在手頭上儲存一些不易腐爛的食物，例如罐裝食品．
3、手電筒和備用電池：在你的床邊及工位上準備一個手電筒． 地震的時候千萬不要使用火柴或蠟燭，因為地震可能會導致燃氣泄漏．
準備一個電池供電的收音機以及備用電池，手機在地震后通常不能使用，因此無線電收音機是你獲取信息最好的途徑．
4、衣服

解答 56．C．細節理解題．根據You can never tell exactly when and where an earthquake may happen，so it is important to take steps to prepare now．可知，我們需要為地震做準備，原因就是我們不知道地震會在何時在何地發生，也就是說地震的發生是沒有任何征兆和預警的，因此答案為C．Because earthquakes take place without warning．
57．D．細節理解題．根據It's always a practical idea to keep a supply of non-perishable（不易腐爛的） food on hand．Have an enough supply of canned（罐裝的） food，powdered milk，dried fruits，non-salted nuts and canned juices for at least 72hours．可知，為地震準備的食物應該是不易腐爛的視頻，例如句子中提到的罐裝食品、奶粉（powered milk）、脫水水果（dried fruits）等，而選項中的fresh vegetables表示新鮮蔬菜，這個是非常容易腐敗的，因此該題的答案為D．
58．B．推理判斷題．根據You might not have heat after an earthquake．Think about your clothing and bedding supplies．可知，準備的衣服是用來取暖的，并不是用來保護頭的，因此A錯誤；根據Do not use matches or candles after an earthquake because it will be very dangerous if there is any gas leaks（泄露）．可知，地震的時候可能會發生燃氣泄漏，因此千萬不要用火柴和蠟燭，因此B正確；根據You'd better prepare some supplies for your home，workplace，and car．可知，我們不僅要在家中為地震做準備，在公司、汽車中都需要準備，因此C錯誤；根據Most telephones will be out of order，so radios will be your best source of information．可知，地震發生后，大部分手機都不能用了，因此獲得信息最好的方法是無線電收音機，D錯誤；
59．A．細節理解題．根據If you live in a cold place，you must think about warmth．可知，如果你住在一個寒冷的地方，你最需要想的就是保暖，隨后提到Think about your clothing and bedding supplies．也就是準備衣服和床上用品，因此該題的答案為A．some warm clothes and bedding supplies
60．C．文章主旨題．文章的大部分內容介紹的是你需要為地震準備些什么，包括水、食物、衣物等，因此該文章的主旨就是為地震做準備，即C．Get prepared for an earthquake
