* 八年级（上） Units 3-4 第三部分 热点素材拓展 阅读理解 (2015原创) 热点主题：凤凰古镇遭受洪灾 The Ancient Town of Fenghuang, one of China’s most well-known ancient towns, was under water as heavy rain hit the center of the country, with tens of thousands of people leaving from the area. Heavy rain and floods(洪水) lasted for the past few days. Waters in the nearby Tuojiang River rose by almost one meter above warning level(警戒线), causing heavy rainstorms. More than 120,000 local people and tourists have been helped to leave there because of the terrible disaster. And more than 4,000 shops in the town have been shut. Several bridges on the Tuojiang River have been damaged or destroyed. Water has flowed(流) into many bars, restaurants and hotels in its ancient town, and electricity in the ancient town has been cut off. About 128,000 people have been affected by the floods. Though the heavy rains have stopped, but the popular tourist spot remains closed for local people’s safety. A shoe shop owner named Kuang said the flood was the worst the town had experienced. “The floods came so quickly that I didn’t have time to move the shoes,” he said sadly. “The flood has led to Fenghuang old town becoming a water town.” said a post on a discussion page on the topic set up on Sina Weibo, a Chinese version of Twitter. “We could only live in an old factory now where many homeless people have to stay together. The crowded space is full of sadness.” Tang said. At least 14 people were killed in flooding in Hunan Province and the neighboring province of Jiangxi and region of Guangxi last month, Xinhua reported. 【主旨大意】本文为一篇新闻报道，关于湖南凤凰古镇遭受洪灾。此洪灾持续多天，破坏力强，给当地人们造成难以估计的损失，成千上万的居民和游客被撤离，数条大桥被冲断，洪水淹没了整个古镇。 Why did many people try to leave the Ancient Town of Fenghuang?
