Hundreds of residents and holidaymakers along southern Australia’s popular Great Ocean Road were forced to move out on Thursday as hot, windy weather threatened to recharge bushfires that destroyed more than 100 homes on Christmas Day.
Residents in three coastal towns in the popular holiday area were advised to leave their homes as temperatures were forecast to reach a high of almost 40 degrees Celsius. The hot summer weather threatened to expand fires that have been burning for almost two weeks.
The fires were started by a lightning strike on Dec. 19 and continue to burn and spread. The Country Fire Authority estimates the fire has burnt out more than 25 square kilometers of land. Authorities estimate that 116 homes were destroyed by the fires on Christmas Day.
The Great Ocean Road is one of Australia’s biggest tourist draws with its spectacular scenery and unusual offshore rock formations. Parts of the road remained closed to traffic on Thursday during what is typically one of its busiest times of the year.
5. What happened on Australia’s Great Ocean Road on Thursday?
6. Why should the local residents leave their homes?
7. When did the bushfires start?
选项
A、The hot and windy weather might expand bushfires.
B、There will be a strong earthquake.
C、Their homes were destroyed by the fires on Christmas Day.
D、The temperatures will fall down soon.
答案
A
解析
新闻提到当地居民被建议撤离,是由于预计即将出现高温,有风的炎热夏日会加剧火情(threat-ened to expand fires),因此选A项。B项“将会有剧烈的地震”未在新闻中提到。新闻中确实提到许多家庭房屋被毁,但当地居民被建议撤离的原因还是因为天气可能加重灾情,C项“他们的房子被毁”答非所问。D项“很快将会有降温”与新闻提到的事实相反。
