Tonga is an island nation in the South Pacific ocean, home to about 105, 000 people. The volcano, known as Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai, is located off the coast of Tonga. Even though the volcano was underwater, it sent lots of gas, ash（灰烬）and stones 12 miles into the sky. It took a while to get reports from Tonga because the event knocked out internet service in the area. Like most island nations, Tonga gets its internet through a cable that runs deep under the sea. Experts say it’s not yet clear whether the cable was broken during the event or simply lost power. A four-foot wave hit the capital, Nuku’alofa. People in low-lying areas were forced to go to higher ground. There are reports of serious damage in Tonga. Many houses near the shore were flooded. At present, the biggest danger is probably from the smoke and ash from the volcano that has covered much of Tonga. The ash makes the air dangerous to breathe, and it is believed to have polluted many sources of drinking water. New Zealand and Australia have sent teams to Tonga to help out. Some of the teams will use airplanes to get a better idea of the damage across the island nation. The large cloud of ash high above Tonga is making it impossible to get a good picture of what’s happening in the area from high in the air.21. What information can we get about the volcano in paragraph 1?A. It is underwater and in an island nation.B. More than 105, 000 people live next to it.C. It’s quite far away from the South Pacific Ocean.D. It’s under the ocean and sent stones into the water.22. What does the underlined expression “knocked out” mean?A. changedB. improvedC. destroyedD. brought23. Which of the following can we infer（推断）from paragraph 3?A. The ash from the volcano has covered much of Tonga.B. The ash makes the air in Tonga dangerous to breathe.C. Houses in low-lying areas were completely damaged.D. People in Tonga will be short of clean drinking water.24. Why is it hard for the teams to know exactly what’s happening in the area?A There is still a lot of ash in the air above Tonga.B. The airplanes cannot take off because of the ash.C. The teams don’t know how to take a good picture.D. The clouds in the sky stop the teams seeing clearly.25.
