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、A lightning strike started the fires.
B、The Great Ocean Road attracted many tourists.
C、Traffic was very busy on Christmas Day.
D、Residents were forced to leave their homes.
答案
D
解析
新闻一开始就提到当地居民在周四被迫迁出(were forced to move out),D项中的leavetheir home与新闻中的move out同义.故为答案。A项“雷击引发了林区火灾”在新闻中有提到,但发生时间是12月19日,新闻中并没有提到是星期几。B项“The Great Ocean Road吸引了很多游客”与问题所问无关。C项中的“交通繁忙”在新闻中提到的是在以往圣诞期间繁忙,现在交通已经关闭,故C项错误。
