【解题提示】
这类文章以科普、新闻报道等为主。阅读文段信息量大，长句多，句子结构复杂；且词汇较为生疏，有时有会出现诸多专用名词。长句理解要从分析结构入手，采取显微距焦法，抓住关键词，进行“精兵简政”；阅读时要根据构词法及上下文猜测新词或者短语的含义，要运用阅读经验排除专用名词的干扰。试题多是细节理解题和分析归纳题，要求考生理解文章基本结构，把握文段中有效的事实和细节并以此进行推理和判断，进而掌握好文章的主旨和大意。

a. Many people lost their lives in the flood in 1953.

［考查意图］检测考生根据材料所提供的信息进行推断的能力。
［答题分析］推理判断题。文中讲到：if the Flood Warning system that currently exists had been around on that cold, stormy night in January 1953, many lives would have been spared.这是一个虚拟的条件从句，表明句子b错误；根据短文第一段的信息可知句子c错误。
2. What does the underlined word “pager” mean in the last paragraph?
A.A boy employed to carry luggage in hotels. （与语境不符）
B.A piece of equipment designed to receive and show messages.
C. A page of papers written to offer messages. （与语境不符）
D.A person invited to write pages of messages. （与语境不符）
［考查意图］考查考生根据材料所提供的信息推断生词含义的能力。
［答题分析］词义猜测题。根据最后一段信息…a recorded message directly to their home, business or pager telling them of the level of warming…可知该词表示如home, business之类的地方或一种能接信息的的设备等，所以A、D项明显错误；该段谈的是一种叫A VM的系统，C项显然也是错误的。
3. People can easily get information and advice about flood any time of the day from______.
A. automatic messaging system（与文意不符）
B. Flood line 0845 988 1188
C. the Flood Warning team in Kent（与文意不符）
D. automated voice messaging system（与文意不符）
