IV、阅读（共两节，满分50分）
第一节阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
An earthquake is one of the most mon natural disasters. It may cause great damage. So it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.
Fragile items, like those made of glass should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them on cupboards higher up. Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. When there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly and not on you.
There is a strong chance of short circuits （短路）and fire breakouts during an earthquake. Make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.
During an earthquake, lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases at all times.
If you are outdoors, do not take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.
If trapped in debris (瓦砾堆), cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if one is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself. Do not move about or kick up dust.
57. The purpose of the passage is to tell readers _____.
A. the damage caused by earthquakes
B. the rescue work after earthquakes
C. what to do about earthquakes
D. how to prevent earthquakes
58. The underlined word “Fragile” in Paragraph 2 probably means _____.
A. easily broken
B. easily found
C. expensive
D. heavy
59. To reduce the injury from the earthquake, items made of glass should be put _____.
A. on cupboards
B. in the bedroom
C. on a lower surface
D. where children can’t reach them
60．During the earthquake, people are advised to _____.
A. go out the building at once
B. turn off power and gas immediately
C. take shelter under a tree

Samantha, or Sam, as her husband, John, called her, had left the doctor’s house looking perfect, satisfied with her appearance.
The year was 1862. It seemed that the war with the North would never e to an end. Sam’s father had left as soon as possible, swearing that he’d fight for Virginia, for their land, for their new government, for God, for the South.
At last, Samantha reached the house that she and John owned. It was a cold, rainy night, and she was glad to be home. She stepped into the sitting room. John rested in an armchair, reading a book. He glanced at her, put the book down, and stood, reaching his arms out for her. They kissed briefly. He put a hand to her now slightly round belly and asked, “What did the doctor say?”
“He said the baby was fine and that I seemed healthy. Do you have any news?”
“Surprisingly, yes.” John hesitated for a moment, as if deciding how he would phrase what he wa s about to say, and then unwillingly continued, “I’ve been demanded to join the army.”
Sam screamed, “What?” She was near tears. “But-but we’re just starting out.” Her voice shook. “I thought that after two years of begging my mother to let the two of us g et married that our life would finally be happy. Isn’t there any way you can get out of this?”
John answered, “I’m afraid not.”
“Please. Please, John, if you love me, please get out of this. Break a leg, fake an illness,
do something.” She began to sob. John forted her, resting her head on his shoulder.
“Sam.”
“What?”
“Name the child after me; name it John or Joanna. I’ll e back as soon as I can. I promise.”
Sam smiled into his collar bone, knowing that John lived by his word. He never broke a
promise. She pressed her hand to her belly, and, unknown to her, the baby was a girl.
And unknown to both of them, the promise that John had just made would be the only promise he would ever break.
67. Sam visited the doctor probably because she ________.
A. tried to see her husband
B. wanted to look perfect
C. was a little worried about her appearance
D. needed an examination for her baby
68. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Sam’s father had been dead for some time.
B. Sam’s m other lived in the North on her own.
C. A new government was set up in the South.
D. The South was attacked by foreign countries.
69. Sam asked John to “break a leg” in order to ________.
A. know how much John loved her
B. prepare for the birth of their baby
C. make sure that John would e back
D. let John get away from the war
70. It can be inferred that John ________.
A. died in the war
B. lied to his wife
C. often broke his promises
D. knew that he would be back
71. Which is the best title for the passage?

C. A Family’s Struggle
D. A Love of Deep Ocean
D
All schoolchildren should have “happiness” less ons up to the age of 18 to bat growing levels of depression, according to a senior government adviser.
“Pupils should study subjects such as how to manage feelings, attitudes to work and money, channeling (疏导) negative emotions and even how to take a criti cal view of the media,” said Lord Richard Layard, a Labor peer and professor of economics at the London School of Economics.
The proposal es only days after the Government said that lessons in manners—including respect for the elderly and how to say “please” and “thank you”—should be taught in secondary schools to bat bad behavior.
Lord Layard, the director of the wellbeing program at the LSE’s Center for Economic Performance, said: “Learning hard things takes an enormous amount of practice. To play the vio lin well takes 10,000 hours of practice. How can we expect people to learn to be happy without large amounts of practice and repetition?”
It is believed that at least two percent of British children under 12 now struggle with significant depression. Among teenagers, the figure rises to five percent. A UNICEF study involving 21 developed countries showed that British children were the least satisfied with their lives, while the World Health Organization predicts that childhood psychiatric (精神的) disorders will rise by 50 percent by 2020.
In a speech at Cambridge University, Lord Layard said the Government’s lessons in manners did not go far enough. “We need a mitment to producing a major specialism in this area, with a serious teacher training program,” he sai d.
However, happiness lessons have been criticized by academics. Frank Furedi, a sociology professor at Kent University and author of Therapy Culture, said: “In pushing emotional literacy,
what some teachers are really doing is abandoning teaching. They are giving up and talking about emotions instead, so that children value all this non-discipline-led activity more than maths, English or science. What is amazing about this is that time and time again, research says that it does not work.”
72. What does Lor d Layard think of the Government’s lessons in manners?
A. They can hardly meet the special demands of education.
B. They are quite enough to solve the present problem.
C. They only focused on a major specialism.
D. They will probably end in failure.
73. What do we know about British children from the passage?
A. They suffer depression at an earlier age.
B. They are the least happy among the 21 developed countries.
C. They are the easiest to suffer childhood psychiatric disorders.
D. Their standard of living is the lowest among the 21 developed countries.
74. We can conclude from the passage that ______.
A. the British Government hasn’t fully realized the problems with British students
B. Lord Layard thinks little of the Government’s lessons in manners
C. British students are not well-behaved enough
D. lessons in manners have brought about positive changes in British students
75. Which of the following method does Lord Layard use to show learning to be happy takes
practice?
A. Analysis.
B. Description.
C. Argument.
D. parison.
76. Frank Furedi believes that ______.
A. happiness lessons should be taught to children
B. happiness lessons are just a waste of time
C. formal teaching can go side by side with happiness lessons
D. formal teaching should not give way to happiness lessons
