The grandfather didn’t answer him,but said,“Take this little basket to the river and bring me back a basket of water.” The boy did as his grandpa said,but all the water leaked out before he got back home.The grandfather laughed and

The next time the boy ran faster,but the basket was still empty before he returned home.The boy said,“See,Grandpa,it’s no use!”
“Is it no use?” the old man said.“Look at the basket.”

Liu Xu was robbed.The 13yearold was riding home when a man jumped out from the roadside.He pulled Liu off his bike and rode away.Liu was scared,but he didn’t run after the robber.He found a telephone and called the police at 110.
“Safety is the first in such a situation,” Liu said,remembering what his teacher had told him in his aid class.“It’s not safe to run af ter an adult who is much stronger than you.”
Liu is a student at Shenzhen Bao’an Middle School in Guangdong.His school is one of the first in China to have required first aid education.Grade 1 students must take the class once a week.
Teenage safety has bee a serious problem recently.According to a recent
survey,about 16,000 teenagers die in accidents in China every year.An average of 40 students die every day from drowning,food poisoning(中毒) and traffic accidents.
Bao’an School said that the first aid clas ses are to teach students skills so that they can keep themselves safe and save themselves from danger.
Students at Bao’an often learn by roleplaying in first aid classes.
Zhou Min,12,remembered her favourite lesson.“I performed as a stranger knocking at a door.A classmate stood inside the door and asked several questions before
letting me in.Then we changed roles and did it again,” Zhou said.“We learned a lot while having fun at roleplaying.”
The topics of the class are regularly changed.The students have learned skills
for lifesaving in the earthquakes.They also deal with topics like sexual
harassment(骚扰).
“The teacher told us girls that we should try not to go out alone,especially at night.If someone tries to do bad things to us,we may hit their eyes or noses or kick their deadly parts.Then we should quickly run into a crowded place,” said Zhong Hua,a 13yearold girl.
25.Why didn’t Liu Xu run after the robber when his bike was taken away from him?
A.Because the robber rode away too fast.
B.Because he was too scared to run in such a situation.
C.Because the robber looked much stronger than an adult.
D.Because he remembered what he had learned in his first aid class.
26.The purpose of the first aid classes is to .
A.make Grade 1 students take the class once a week
B.help the 40 students to solve their safety problems
C plete the required art education in the middle school
D.teach the teenagers how to keep themselves safe from danger
27.Zhou Min gives an example to show .
A.how they learn in the first aid classes
B.where they have their first aid classes
C.what they don’t often do in her classes
D.who taught them roleplaying in her classes
28.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.A survey shows that over ten thousand teenagers die in accidents in China every year.
B.Many students of Bao’an Middle School enjoyed themselves in first aid classes.
C.Girl students are taught what to do when someone tries to do bad things to them.
D.Topics for first aid classes are quite different from what the students have been taught.
C
Many people think the dinosaurs were the biggest animals that ever lived.They are wrong.The world’s biggest animal is still living and it lives in the ocean.It is called the blue whale.Blue whales can be as long as 30 metres and weigh as much as 1,000 kilos.The largest dinosaurs weighted only 500 kilos.
The whale is not only the world’s biggest animal but also one of the smartest animals.We know that whales can municate with each other,although we do not know what they are saying.Perhaps one day we will learn how to municate with whales,and then they will be able to tell us about themselves.
Although they live in the ocean,whales don’t lay eggs like fish do.They are mammals.They give birth to babies and produce milk inside their own bodies to feed them.Humans are also mammals.
There are lots of stories about whales,but perhaps the most famous story is MobyDick,which was written by an American writer named Heman Melville.In the book,a sailor named Captain Ahab spends a lot of time trying to find and kill an enormous white whale named Moby Dick.
Sadly,there aren’t many kinds of whales left.People have killed them for food and other things for thousands of years.However,there are now laws to stop people killing most kinds of whales so perhaps there will be more of them in years to e.
29.Whales can .
A.tell us about themselves
y eggs
C municate with each other
D.live on land
30.MobyDick is .
A.a story written by Heman Melville
B.a sailor
C.the name of a blue whale
D.a famous dinosaur
31.There are not many kinds of whales left because .
A.they don’t lay eggs
B.people have killed them
C.they live in the ocean
D.there are laws against them
32.The passage is mainly about .
A.the world’s biggest animal
B.lots of stories about whales
ws to stop people killing whales
D.the differences between dinosaurs and whales
D
Some people can never be forgotten.That’s because their names bee mon words.As many as 50,000 words in the English language get their meaning from people’s names.Some are real people,while others are characters in books or stories.
Often a new dish is given the name of its inventor.The Chinese dish gongbao chicken was created in Sichuan Province by Ding Baozhen.He served the hot dish when he was governor of the province from 1876 to 1886.After Ding died,people named the dish for him.
The fisherman Willem Beukelz began to pickle(腌制) fish in the 14 century.His method of pickling fish was widely used,but people didn’t pronounce his name “Beukelz”.Soon “pickles” became popular in many countries.
Granny Smith apples are named for Maria Ann Smith,a grandmother.Maria was born into a farm family in Britain in 1799 and married Thomas Smith at the age of 19.Then they moved to Australia.On their farm near Sydney they grew apple trees.Their special kind of apple became known in Australia as a Granny Smith.
More than just foods take people’s names.Many people enjoy riding on a Ferris wheel,named for engineer George W.G.Ferris.He designed the first one for Chicago’s World Columbian Exposition in 1893.
Scientific laws,diseases,sports terms and places around the world also use people’s names.You can’t escape them.They’re everywhere!
33.About 50,000 English words get their meanings from .
A.people’s interests
B.peop le’s names
C.the names of places
D.the names of countries
34.The method of pickling was from .

选项中有两项为多余选项。

Would you know what to do if a fire started in your home?Take the time now to review the following safety tips,and your family will be prepared in time of a fire
in your home:
36
An escape plan can help every member of a family get out of a burning house.The idea is to get outside quickly and safely. 37 So it is important to learn and remember the different ways out of your home.
Stay low
If you can see smoke in the house,stay low to the ground as you make your way to the exit. 38 You will breathe less smoke if you stay to the ground.Smoke naturally rises,so if there is smoke while you are using your escape route,staying low means you can crawl(爬) under most of it.
What if you can’t get out right away?
If you can’t get out fast because fire or smoke is stopping an escape route,you will want to yell for help.You can do this from an open window or call 911 if you have a phone with you. 39 Then,firefighters will have a hard time finding you.The sooner they find you,the sooner you both can get out.
If your clothes catch fire,what should you do?
Your clothes could catch fire during a fire or by accident if you step too close to a candle.If this happens,don’t run! Instead,stop,drop to the ground,cover your face with your hands,and roll.This will cut off the air and put out the flames.
40
A.Know your way out
B.Preventing fires is in the first place!
C.An easy way to remember this is:Stop,Drop,and Roll!
D.Smoke from a fire can make it hard to see where things are.
E.Even if you are scared,never hide under the bed or in a closet.
F.They will help prepare you for what you need to do in case of a fire.
G.In a fire,smoke and poisonous(有毒的) air hurt more people,than the actual
flames(火焰) do.

W:Yes.Our country sometimes has hurricanes,especially in winter.But the strongest one is the one that happened on 16th October,1987.
M:You mean the one struck the southeast of England?
W:Yes.It had been raining for two days and the ground was very wet.The trees still had leaves on.So the strong wind pushed over the trees easily.

W:What did you do during the earthquake,John?
M:Stayed in bed.
W:What do you mean?Didn’t you try to get outside?
M:No.I got a terrible flu,so I just stayed in bed.
W:So what happened?
M:Well,I must have slept through the first earthquake although nobody believes
me.Then I woke up at about four in the morning,still feeling terrible with the
flu,eyes running,nose running.I decided to get up and make a cup of tea.I’d just got into the kitchen when I started to feel unsteady on my feet.I still thought it was the flu.
W:So what happened then?

W:Oh,no.I never sleep sitting up.
(Text10)
M:If you can read a clock,you can know the time of the day.But no one knows what time itself is.We cannot see it.We cannot touch it.We cannot hear it.We know it only by the way we mark its passing.For all our success in measuring the smallest parts of time,time remains one of the great mysteries of the universe.One way to think about time is to imagine a world without time.There could be no movement,because time and movement cannot be separated.A world without time could exist only as long as there were no changes.For time and change are linked,we know that time has passed when something changes.In the real world — the world with time — changes never stop.Some changes happen only once in a while,like an eclipse of the moon.Others happen repeatedly,like the rising and setting of the sun.Humans always have noted natural events that repeat themselves.When people began to count such events,they began to measure time.

see意为“看见”;hold表示“握住,容纳”;catch意为“抓住,接住”。

51.A 因为作者被埋在下面,所以应是“听到”有人来。

52.A 作者和救援人员并不相识,因此用astranger。

53.A 作者的脚和腿应是感觉好像断了,而不是“看起来”“好像”或“出现”。

54.C 抢救地震中的受伤人员,时间是最重要的,因此soon正确。

55.C not...until意为“直到……才”。

由空前的didn’t和句意可知应用until。

第一节
In recent years there have been many natural disasters caused by human activities,such as floods,earthquakes and sand storms.
These natural disasters do great harm to humans.Many people don’t have enough food or water.They even lost their lives and became homeless.It is time for us to take action to protect our planet.We must stop cutting down trees and save water and paper,or we will have nowhere to live.
Most importantly,measures should also be taken by the government to prevent people from destroying the environment.Only a small action is meaningful to our planet,so e on and join us!

Thisisastoryofeveryone.Thetreeisactuallyourparents.When we were young,we loved to play with Mom and Dad.When we grow up,we leave them and only return when we need something or when we are sad or tired.No matter what happens,parents are always there and ready to give us everything they have to make us happy.。
