Almost every day we can see fire engines rushing through the streets by ourselves or on TV. Fires do great harm to peop le. They not only cause people to lose a lot of property(财产), but also injure many people. What's more, they can cause some deaths, too.But why do the fire accidents happen? As far as we know now, there are so many reasons that we can't count them all. But most of the fires are brought about by carelessness and violation(违法) of fire safety rules. Some of them are caused by the poor quality(质量) of home electrical appliances(电器). Some people even don't know how to use them properly. So when they use the appliances in the wrong way, a fire accident happened. Besides these, there are quite a few businessmen who focus so much attention on profits(利润)that they pay little attention to the fire rules.In case of the fire accidents, what will you do? Here are some tips for you.★Run out of the situation as soon as possible. But don't get in a lift, as the electricity may be cut off by the fire★If you can't get away by yourself, it's of great importance to hang something out of thewindow as a sign of asking for help.★At the same time, you should call the firemen right away. They will come to help you out when you are in trouble.★Cover your mouth with a wet towel or a wet cloth so that you can breathe some fresh air, and try not to get into the smoke. The smoke can kill you in a short time.( )56. There are ________ reasons mentioned here to cause a fire accident.A one B. two C. three D. four( )57. If you meet a fire accident, the first thing you should do is to ________.A call the firemen B. cover your mouthC run out of the situationD hang something out( )58. Quite a few businessmen pay much attention to________.A. people's livesB. fire rulesC. the profits D foodsafety( )59. You can breathe fresh air in the smoke by________.A covering your mouth with a wet clothB covering your mouth with your handsC. holding your breath for a long timeD. covering your mouth with a dry towel( )60. From this passage we know that________.A. when a fire happens, you should run out in the liftB. the number of fire accidents is going up every yearC. all electrical appliances are in poor qualityD. the fire will only cause you to dieBNowadays more and more people care about their health. But how can we keep healthy? In my opinion, it is important to follow some rules.First, you should take some exercise every day. A study shows that getting plenty of exercise makes the heart beat faster and the lungs(肺脏) work harder. This cuts down the risk of heart disease, and helps lower blood pressure. That's why more and more people take an active part in different kinds of sports and exercise. Every morning many people getup early and take much exercise.Some practice shadowboxing(太极拳) and swordplay(剑术) while others run, jog, walk or dance to music. In the afternoon there are also many people enjoying others sports. Some play basketball, football or volleyball on the playground. Others go in for gymnastics or track events. Through sports and exercise people become healthier and stronger.Second, you’d better eat more fruit and vegetables. But you shouldn't eat too much meat such as beef and pork. The food people eat is connected with their health. Meat has more fat than fish. Fat can fill in the arteries(动脉), and then easily causes a heart problem.At last, giving up bad habits like smoking and drinking alcohol is also an important way to keep healthy. Smoking and drinking alcohol is bad for people's health, and everyone should stop them. Unfortunately, few people follow this piece of advice.If you can follow these rules, you will live a healthier and happier life( )61. More people take an active part in sports and exercise because________.A. exercise is interestingB. exercise is tiring but funnyC. exercise takes timeD. exercise is good for health( )62. Some people practice shadowboxing and swordplay________.A in the morningB in the afternoonC. on the playground D in the gym( )63. What does the underlined word “alcohol” mean in Chinese?A.开水B.果汁C.酒精D.毒药( )64. In order to keep in good h ealth, people should________.A.run, jog, walk or dance to musicB. get up early and eat much meatC.eat more fruit, vegetables and meatD. smoke and drink alcohol( )65. what's the best title of this passage?A. Food and Keeping Health B How to Keep HealthyC The Importance of Health D. Giving up Bad HabitsC配对阅读：（如果选E请在答题卡上涂AB;选F涂AC;选G涂AD）( )66. The desk shook suddenly while Jim was doing his homework.
