AWhat do you do if you’re in trouble on a lonely island? Surely you need to find a way to get in touch with the outside world. Your best chance of doing this is to draw the attention of a passing plane.Body signalsPilots (people who drive planes) in different countries understand body signals if they have the correct training. When you wave your arms up and down in a straight line, it means “yes”. When you point downwards and swing（摆动）your arm from side to side, it means “no”. If you want the pilot to know that it’s safe to land, push your hands out in front of you and bend (弯曲) your knees. If you want to say that it’s not safe to land, put your arms in the air and move them to one side.Smoke signalsThe smoke from a fire can be seen from far away, so it’s a good way to draw attention. If the weather is dry, it isn’t hard to start a fire. Remember, however, that fires can be very dangerous if they get out of control. Make sure if you light(点燃) a fire, it can’t be spread(扩散).If the ground is dark, light smoke can be seen more easily. Green grass and leaves produce light smoke.Ground-to-air signalsIt’s a good idea to build some signals, too. Use large pieces of wood to make the symbols. I f you can’t find any wood, use earth. Some useful symbols are:F: “I need food and water.”Ⅱ: “I need medicine.”I: “I am badly hurt.” X: “I am unable to move from here.”Pilots’ repliesIf the pilot lowers the plane’s wings from side to side, this means“message received and understood”.(At night, the pilot makes plane’s lights green) .If the pilot flies the plane in a clockwise circle, he means “message received but not understood”. (At night, the pilot makes the plane’s lights red.)However, there is no signal which means “message not received”. Why not?26. Which pictu re means “it’s not safe to land”?27. What can we learn from the passage?A. Swinging your arm from side to side means “yes”.B. If the ground is dark, light smoke can’t be seen.C. If you need some medicine, make a symbol “II”.D. The pilots make replies a blue light at night.28. What is the passage mainly about?A. The explanation of building signals on a lonely island.B. The importance of making signals on a lonely island.C. Ways of sending out signals on a lonely island.D. Ways of receiving signals from a lonely island.BOne day a lonely girl found two weak birds while she was walking inthe woods(树林)．She took them home and put them in a small cage．She fedthem with love and the birds grew strong. Every morning they greeted herwith a beautiful song．The girl loved them very much and wanted theirsinging to last forever.One day the girl left the cage’s door open．The larger and stronger ofthe two birds flew out of the cage．The girl watched worriedly as itcircled(盘旋) high above her．She was afraid that it would fly away and she would never see it again．So when it flew close，she grasped(抓) at it wildly．She was very happy that she held it tightly within her hand! Suddenly，she felt something had happened to the bird．She opened her hand and was surprised to find the bird was dead．Her love for the bird killed it．She noticed the other bird jumping in the cage. She could feel that it wanted to be free. It hoped to fly into the clear，blue sky．She lifted(举起) it from the cage and flew it into the air. The bird circled once，twice，three t imes…When the bird was flying happily in the sky，she was so glad．Just then the bird flew closer and sat softly on her shoulder．It sang the sweetest song she had ever heard．The fastest way to lose love is to hold it tight.

It was written more than three hundred years ago. Even now people still agree with him. No one can live a completely lonely life. Without other people, life will become empty and sad. We all need to have friends.For some of us, although making friends is not difficult, feeling shy, we may not want to make the first move. It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.There are many books about friendship, but Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People, written in 1936, is the most famous. This “how to” book about getting along with other people became a best seller. It was later put into 28 languages.Dale Carnegie’s advice seems to be simple, but can his advice help you? Do you need to change the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book:Be friendly and polite.Always greet with a smile. Begin with “Excuse me” or “Would you please” when you want to ask somebody. Remember to say “Thank you” and try to be as helpful as you can.Go out of your way to be nice.Find some time to do special things for other people. Making some soup for a sick neighbour may seem like a little thing to you, but it will make your neighbor feel a lot better.Remember names.They say that the sweetest music to a person’s ears is the sound of his or her own name.Be open-minded.Try to understand other people’s ways and ideas and learn some thing from them.Listen patiently.When someone is talking to you, look at him or her, listen carefully and say something when necessary.32.

The quake -- the most powerful to hit Japan in more than 100 years -- caused massive damage and many people are missing and feared dead.The 8.9 magnitude quake struck Friday (March 11) off Japan's eastern coast, and prompted (引发) tsunami warnings（海啸警报）across the Pacific as far away as South America and the U.S. West Coast. Several days after an 8.9-magnitude earthquake and resulting 10-meter-high tsunami destroyed the coastline. The United States Geological Survey says it was the fifth largest earthquake since 1900. The largest, with a 9.5 magnitude, shook Chile (智利) in 1960.In Japan, the tsunami swept away boats, cars and hundreds of houses in coastal areas north of Tokyo.
