He went through life accepting the mixture of good things and bad things. He never looked for any explanation or reason about why things happened just the way they did.One morning Nikos woke up. He started to shave, as he did every morning, but then he noticed that the mirror on the bathroom wall wasn’t quite straight. He tried to adjust it, but as soon as he touched it, the mirror fell off the wall and hit the floor with a huge crash. It broke into a thousand pieces. Nikos knew that some people thought this was unlucky. “Seven years’ bad luck,” they said, “when a mirror broke.” But Nikos didn’t care.After that he went to make himself a sandwich, which needed some tomato sauce. When he picked up a jar of tomato sauce, it fell from his hand. Tomato sauce was everywhere. Some people, he knew, thought that this was also supposed to bring bad luck. But Nikos didn’t care.On his way to work, he saw a black cat running away from him. He didn’t care.Even though Nikos wasn’t superstitious, he thought that something bad was certain to happen to him today. He told everybody at work what had happened. “Something bad will happen to you today,” they all said. But nothing bad happened to him.That evening, his friend thought Nikos was going to have bad things. However, whatever they played, Nikos won. “Go on then, Nikos,” his friend shouted, “use all the money you have won to buy some lottery tickets!” Nikos did it. The next day, everybody was watching the draw for the lottery on TV. The first number came out, for the third prize. It was Nikos’ number. Then the second number, for the second prize. It was Nikos’ number. Then the first prize. It was Nikos’ number as well.He WON all three of the big lottery prizes!4.The following things are thought of as the signs of unluck EXCEPT ________.A.A black cat B.A sandwich with tomato sauceC.A broken mirror D.Spilt tomato sauce5.What does the underlined word “superstitious” in paragraph 5 mean?A.Not studying or looking at things thoroughly.B.Controlling bad luck to become good fortune.C.Believing certain events bring good or bad luck.D.Taking actions to keep bad things from occurring.6.Why did Nikos’ friend recommend him to buy lottery tickets?A.To test his luck.B.To change his fortune.C.To bring in more money.D.To use up all the money.7.What can we infer from the passage?A.Nikos went to great lengths to know what lay behind all the things.B.The mirror on the bathroom wall broke into pieces out of no reason.C.The occasional things failed to convince Nikos of the coming bad luck.D.Nikos’ story tells what happens in life has nothing to do with the evil signs.The Wampanoag language was not dead. To call it dead would be an insult to the ancestors who left it for future generations as a way to communicate-and a way to teach. But it was “unspoken” until linguist Jessie “Little Doe” Baird brought it back. Her project’s Wampanoag dictionary holds more than 11,000 entries.Words on paper are not a language. A language lives through the people who speak it. So Baird founded the Wôpanâak Language Reclamation Project. She teaches community classes and family camps. Kids in grade school and high school have the opportunity to learn the language.The Wampanoags have lived for 12,000 years in Massachusetts and parts of Rhode Island. When the Pilgrims (清教徒) met the first Indigenous people, those were the Wampanoags. The English settlers brought disease that killed thousands-an estimated two-thirds of the Wampanoag Nation died-as well as war and rules that fragmented (分裂) the tribes. There once were 69 tribes in the nation; now there are three. Baird is a citizen of the Mashpee tribe. Her ancestors left a key to their language. They translated the King James Bible into Wampanoag. They left hundreds of documents in their written alphabet (字母表).Baird describes a vision she had where her ancestors helped her see it was time to bring the language home. She began her research, which led her to a graduate degree at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where she learned from and worked with other linguists. In 2010, she was named a MacArthur Foundation Fellow, earning a “genius grant” to further her work.“It’s incredibly difficult to reclaim a language, even more so when there are no speakers alive, and even more so when you’re driving 90 minutes a day, each way, to attend graduate school, with four small children at home.”“I might have been afraid to do the work had I known that,” Baird says with a laugh now. “But I didn’t, and so here we are.”8.What is the situation of the Wampanoag language?A.It has entirely gone by now.B.It is being brought back to life.C.It is a compulsory course in schools.D.It has got well-recognized in the USA.9.What may contribute to the downfall of Wampanoag?A.The wide use of English in the new land.B.The religious change of the Wampanoags.C.The sharp reduced population of Wampanoag.D.The shortage of reference books on the language.10.What’s the key element of saving the Wampanoag language?A.The local linguists lend a timely hand.B.Children are asked to learn the language.C.The government gives the financial support.D.The materials ancestors left lay the foundation.11.Which of the following words can best describe Jessie Baird?A.Determined and responsible B.Considerate and ambitiousC.Intelligent and kind-hearted D.Independent and adaptableA poll of 2,000 UK adults found more than one third (36%) admit to rarely, or never, reading cookies or terms and conditions online before accepting them. And of those who do, 38% spend a mere 30 seconds or less scanning through. About 31% simply can’t be bothered to read the small print, while about one quarter (26%) claim they do not have the time.It also emerged that 85% have accepted cookies on a website without reading the policies or making any changes, and that 62% will accept despite not knowing what they are agreeing to.The research was commissioned (委托) by Avast, which has teamed up with baking star Prue Leith to help educate Internet users about digital cookies. She has created a limited run of her chocolate chip cookies, which are free for people to order online and come with tips and tricks on how to scan the digital kind of cookies.Prue Leith said, “While recent times have highlighted the importance of being connected online, it’s also never been more important for people to feel safe while doing so. Many people of all ages, but particularly of my generation, aren’t as familiar with certain aspects of the Internet, and this of course includes digital cookies. This can prove to be a barrier to learning about everything that being online has to offer, so I am absolutely delighted to be working with Avast to help people understand what cookies are and how they work.”The survey also found half of adults are “fed up” with being asked to accept cookies when landing on a web page, although 30% find it helpful that cookies remember information such as passwords and preferences. But 29% are confused by cookie policies, and 70% even believe websites intentionally try to confuse them with the language they use. However, over two thirds (68%) feel they could be risking their online privacy when accepting a “cookie policy” without reading it. As a result, three quarters (75%) think Internet users need to be better educated on what is included in cookie policies.12.Prue Leith baked a limited run of cookies to ________.A.promote her baked products online.B.offer free cookies to people in need.C.maintain the cooperation with Avast.D.spread the knowledge on digital cookies. 13.How does the author present the result of the research?A.By conducting polls.B.By listing statistics.C.By exploring phenomenon and nature.D.By analyzing causes and effects.14.What will the author tell in the following paragraph?A.The side effects of leaking personal privacy.B.The gravity of fully accepting digital cookies.C.The drawbacks of overlooking digital cookiesD.The specific tips on how to read digital cookies.15.What’s the purpose of the text?A.To remind netizens to pay more attention to digital cookies.B.To appeal to consumers to be concerned about the online tricks.C.To advocate caring for the generation unfamiliar with the Internet.D.To advise the Internet companies to revise digital cookies policies.二、七选五“We are becoming the people we wanted to be,” Gloria Steinem, a journalist and social activist, declared in the 1970s. So have women really become the people they wanted to be?understanding, here are some true data about women at work.17One of the great changes in gender equality is taking place in education. More women graduate from high school, attend and graduate from college. In 1994, 63 percent of female high school graduates and 61 percent of male high school graduates were enrolled in college the following fall, according to the Pew Research Center. By 2012, that number for women jumped to 71 percent, but remained unchanged for males, at 61 percent.The wage gap between males and females is still existing.Even as more women are flooding onto college campuses, here’s a disappointing trend.18 But there still is a gap between their earnings and men’s earnings. Women in professional specialty occupations earn 72.7 percent of what men in the same position earn.Is there any place women earn the same as men?No. Unfortunately, there is no such place. But it can be to a woman’s advantage to work in a labor union. 19 So, while there is a gap, it’s much less than in professions without unions, where women make 72 percent of men’s incomes.Women bring home more income.20 Over 40 percent of moms are now the sole or primary source of income in U.S. households. Women are now the primary or co-money-maker in nearly two-thirds of American families and working married women bring home 44 percent of their family income.A.Education is specially significant for women.B.Women are taking higher education by storm.C.It is a fact that women climb higher in the work world now.D.An increasing number of women have joined the workforce.E.More than ever before, women are the breadwinners in the household.F.Today, 30 percent of all the businesses are owned and operated by women.G.Women who work in unionized professions make 82 percent of men’s incomes.三、完形填空As I held my boy in the arms to rock him to sleep, he had his arms wrapped around me35 any day for granted.

The most significant factors contributing to the lower rates among Black students, the study found, were experiencing acts of discrimination and managing multiple priorities that can interfere with completing coursework.The report compiled data in fall 2022 from 6, 008 college students across different certification and degree programs, including 1, 106 Black students.21% of Black respondents said they felt discriminated against frequently or occasionally compared to 15% of other students. Black students were also more likely to have shared that they felt disrespected or psychologically unsafe at an institution while learning. 28% of Black students who attended an institution with little diversity felt physically unsafe, while 26% felt disrespected and 27% felt psychologically unsafe.Managing multiple priorities was another factor interfering with Black students’ education goals. The report found that 22% of Black students overall have caregiving responsibilities, compared to 11% of students in other racial groups, and 20% of Black students overall have full-time jobs, compared to 11% of other racial groups.Aside from discrimination and the task of managing responsibilities, the data also acknowledged other barriers making it difficult for Black students to complete their education, including the high costs of attending school. An April 2022 report by The Education Trust found that because Black women fall within two marginalized groups, they make less money and often have to takeout more loans to cover the cost of attending college.4.Which factor can’t lead to the lower rate of completing education among black students directly?A.Management of multiple priorities.B.Experiences of discrimination.C.The types of certificate or degree programs.D.High costs of attending school. 5.How did the researcher draw the conclusion?A.By referring to previous studies.B.By making some comparisons.C.By explaining causes and effects.D.By analyzing respondents’ psychology.6.What can we infer from the passage?A.About 21% of Black students feel discriminated against frequently.B.Black students feel discriminated mainly due to physical in security.C.Black students have to take full-time jobs for lack of access to loans.D.The black female students may be in the most disadvantaged position.7.What’s the author’s attitude towards the phenomenon referred to in the passage?A.Objective.B.Favorable.C.Critical.D.Concerned.A new study reveals new clues about the subtle(微妙的) but previously poorlyunderstood evolutionary dance happening between temperatures and changes in the size of animal body parts. The new research offers important insights about how birds may adapt to the rapid rise in temperatures driven by global climate change.For the study in Nature Communications, the researchers looked at nearly 7, 000 species of terrestrial non migratory birds—which is nearly two-thirds of all bird species—and focused on how bird species has evolved in ambient temperature(温度的梯度) and other factors of selection.Two widely accepted “rules” in biology indicate that as local temperatures change, animals are likely to adjust heat transfer capabilities by changing the size of their bodies and extremities(四肢).Biologist Carl Bergmann’s rule states that colder climates spawn bigger bodies because they help keep heat while smaller bodies help shed it. As a result, a polar bear is more than 2 1/2 times as tall at the shoulder as a sun bear from equatorial regions.Zoologist Joel Asaph Allen’s rule deals with extremities, such as limbs, ears, and beaks, stating that animals in colder climates tend to have smaller extremities because extremities tend to have more surface than volume and are uniquely suited to shed heat. For example, arctic hares have evolved short legs and ears, whereas desert jackrabbits have evolved very longlegs and ears.“The problem is that everything we know about ecology tells us that changing the size of bodies and extremities can be problematic,” says lead author Carlos Botero, an associate professor of integrative biology at the University of Texas at Austin.For example, if body size decreases, birds may not be able to hunt the same food as their ancestors. Similarly, if the average size or shape of a bill changes, birds may become less efficient foragers(觅食者) or have trouble producing typical mating calls.It is not surprising that many prior studies have failed to find evidence for these predictions and that these so-called biological rules are currently controversial. The new study could clarify that debate by showing that although the patterns that Bergmann and Allen predicted occur in the wild, the two separate mechanisms complement each other.8.What is the new study about?A.The two rules proposed by previous researchers.B.The differences between animals in cold and warm areas.C.The effect global climate change has on animals’ foraging.D.The way birds evolve in response to the rising temperature.A.make for B.bring in C.arise from D.wipeoutA.bigger bodies and longer legs.B.bigger bodies and shorter legs.C.smaller bodies and longer legs.D.smaller bodies and shorter legs. 11.What can we learn from the passage?A.The two rules with separate mechanisms are contradictory.B.The new study combines the prior studies and the two rules.C.The new study provides supporting evidence for the two rules.D.The two rules show animals change the body size to keep heatU.S. forests could worsen global warming instead of easing it because they are being destroyed by natural disasters and are losing their ability to absorb planet-warming gases as they get older, a new Agriculture Department report says.U.S. forests currently absorb 11 percent of U.S carbon emissions, or 150 million metric tons of carbon a year, equal to the combined emissions from 40 coal power plants, the report says. It predicts that the ability of forests to absorb carbon will start falling quickly after 2025 and that forests could emit up to 100 million metric tons of carbon a year as their emissions from rotting trees exceed their carbon absorption. Forests could become a “substantial carbon source” by 2070, the USDA report says.The prediction suggests that the loss of forests as a natural carbon absorber will require the U.S. to cut emissions more rapidly to reach net zero, said Lynn Riley, a senior manager of climate science at the American Forest Foundation.“Ten percent of our domestic emissions. That is a really significant portion,” Riley said. “As we work to decarbonize...forests are one of the greatest tools at our disposal. If we were to lose that, it means the U.S. will contribute that much more in emissions.”The loss of cab on absorption is driven in part by natural disasters such as wildfires, tornadoes and hurricanes, which are increasing in frequency and strength as global temperatures rise. The disasters destroy forestland, disrupting their ecosystem and decreasing their ability to absorb carbon, Riley said.Exploitation of forested areas, which the report projects will continue to increase, ishaving the same effect as people increasingly move to the so-called wild and urban interface.The trees’ ability to absorb carbon weakens overtime. Older, mature trees absorb less carbon than younger trees of the same species, and the U.S. forests are rapidly aging, the report found.More aggressive forest management can help by cutting down a small portion of aging forests to make ways for younger trees that absorb more carbon, Riley said. A thorough study of each forest should be done before removing older trees, Riley said, comparing forest management to prescribing the proper dugs to a patient.12.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.Coal power plants emit 150 million metric tons of carbon every yearB.Cutting down all older trees is an effective way to solve the problem.C.A new study of forest should be conducted after removing older trees.D.Forests are likely to shift from a carbon absorber to an emission source.13.What can we infer from what Riley said in paragraph 3 and 4?A.Forests play a crucial role in holding carbon.B.Forests are no longer a natural carbon absorber.C.The U.S makes contributions to decarbonization.D.Achieving net zero emissions is within easy reach.A.aging forests B.natural disastersC.global warming D.development of forests15.What is the best title of the passage?A.Cutting Carbon Helps Slow Global Warming.B.Global Warming Is Becoming Worse Gradually.C.Forests Are Losing Their Ability to Hold Carbon.D.Planting More Trees Is at The Top of The Agenda.二、七选五The World Book Day, also called World Book and Copyright Day, falls on April 23rd.concentration and memory, and enhances your creativity and critical thinking skills.Despite the importance of reading, many students today don’t have a good habit of reading. There are a few reasons for this: lack of time and motivation, abundance of digital distractions and failure to stick to reading. However, these challenges can be overcome with your conscious efforts.First, you need to make time for reading by limiting time spent on social media or other leisure activities. Start with just 15—30 minutes a day of reading and you can work your way up to longer sessions. 17 Many libraries also have digital book options if you prefer e-readers or audiobooks.Second, build the habit by scheduling reading time each day and sticking to it. 18 Even just having a regular routine on certain days of the week, such as reading Monday to Friday after dinner for example, can help you cement(巩固,加强) it as a habit.Finally, track your progress to stay on track. Set monthly reading goals to achieve and record the books you read, how long the sessions were and any key insights gained. It is a traditional way to write on a notebook. 19 .By making reading a priority, limiting distractions, setting a regular schedule, and tracking your progress, you can successfully develop the habit of reading. 20 So take the first step to cultivate this important habit today. Your future self will surely thank you for it.A.Today using an app may make it easier to achieve.B.The goal of the day is to engage people in reading.C.Habits are formed through consistency and repetition.D.Developing a habit of reading is particularly unnecessary.E.Protecting the copyright is likely to be the focus of the day.F.A lifelong love of reading will enrich your life in so many ways.G.Find books you are genuinely interested in to help build motivation.三、完形填空The first cable car originated from San Francisco.

One day, a boy went to him and showed his gratitude by singing a song, which deeply touched Barnett’s heart. “When I went back to Canada and people were not interested in Uganda, I remembered the small boy. I knew that if some Ugandan children could travel to the West, people would be deeply moved and would certainly want to help,” Barnett recalls. In April 1984, Barnett and a team of volunteers travelled back to Uganda to select 31 children who would become the first African Children’s Choir.In September 1984, the choir arrived in North America and achieved more throughout their tour than Barnett could imagine. They inspired audiences with their stories through music, dance and drama and raised enough funds to open a children’s home in Uganda. This provided a stable environment and a quality education for the choir children and other children who needed care.While Barnett had thought of the choir as a one-time attempt, the choir’s instant popularity and the ongoing needs in Uganda convinced him to continue with choir work. In 1985, a second choir was selected from an orphanage home in Makerere, Kikoni, and the African Children’s Choir began another tour. Its success meant it was able to provide for many children beyond those in the choir.Over the next years, six more homes were established to cater for vulnerable children. A number of special literacy schools were established where the children learned how to read and write, and gained confidence and skills. The organization next established a sponsorshipprogramme to help the children move further in their schooling.In 1990, the African Children’s Choir spread its wings and opened in Kenya. In 1994, it opened in Rwanda. In 1996, it opened another branch in South Sudan, Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa. Currently, the African Children’s Choir is made up of 44 choirs, each with between 17-24 members, both boys and girls aged between 7-15.4.Why did Barnett return to Uganda in 1984?A.To provide humanitarian aid to the area.B.To search for the boy he had met before.C.To organize a choir to help poor children.D.To send donations from Canadians to Uganda.5.How was the children’s first performance?A.It was an unexpected hit.B.It barely covered its costs.C.It was an ordinary attempt.D.It was enjoyed by orphans.6.What can we infer about the African Children’s Choir from the last two paragraphs?A.It is well-received by local parents and schools.B.It has grown rapidly and more kids benefit from it.C.It suffers financial difficulty and requires sponsoring.D.It pays more attention to kids’ schooling instead of music.7.What is the text mainly about?A.A great choir brings hope to African kids.B.Music is a bridge across different cultures.C.The African Children’s Choir changes Africa.D.Music can shake off poverty and bring happiness.In recent years, there has been a significant shift towards adopting eco-friendly practices and promoting sustainable lifestyles. This global trend is fueled by various factors, ranging from heightened environmental awareness to economic advantages.A primary driver behind the rise of green living is the increasing awareness of environmental issues, particularly the urgent need to address climate change. As people become more informed about the harmful effects of carbon emissions, deforestation, and pollution, there isa collective push toward adopting practices that minimize ecological impact.Beyond environmental concerns, there are some economic motives driving the shift toward sustainability. For instance, energy-efficient technologies and practices can significantly reduce utility bills over time, making them financially advantageous for homeowners and businesses alike. Additionally, governments and organizations often offer some financial stimuli such as tax credits and subsidies (补贴) to encourage the development and adoption of renewable energy sources.For example, solar energy has emerged as a frontrunner in the renewable energy sector, attracting widespread interest from homeowners and businesses seeking clean energy solutions. Solar panels use sunlight to generate electricity, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional fossil fuels. The declining costs of solar technology, coupled with advancements in efficiency and storage capabilities, have made solar panels increasingly practical and cost-effective.Consumer attitudes and preferences are also factors driving the demand for sustainable products and services. Millennials (千禧一代) and Generation Z, in particular, prioritize environmental responsibility and prefer to support businesses that demonstrate a commitment to sustainability. This shift has urged businesses across various sectors to integrate eco-friendly practices into their operations, from sustainable sourcing to waste reduction initiatives.Moreover, the power of social influence cannot be underestimated in shaping consumer behavior towards sustainability. Social media platforms and online communities arouse awareness about environmental issues and show innovative green solutions. Individuals are increasingly motivated by peer examples, fostering a collective movement towards greener lifestyles.These living practices reflects a global commitment to sustainability. By choosing to integrate sustainable practices and technologies into everyday life, individuals and communities can contribute to lessening climate change and creating a healthier planet for future generations. 8.What is the result when the government offers financial stimuli according to the text?A.Green energy will be more accessible and affordable.B.It will bring too much financial burden to the government.C.Technology companies will make much progress in their field.D.Traditional fossil fuels will give way to renewable energy entirely.9.What is true about the consumer behavior according to paragraphs 5 and 6?A.Older generations have a more sustainable lifestyle.B.Peers make little difference in shaping consumer behavior.C.Social influence promises to drive changes in consumer preferences.D.The eco-friendly practices of companies cause the shift of consumer behavior. 10.What is the purpose of the text?A.To initiate a process.B.To list some reasons.C.To address concerns.`D.To analyze a dilemma.11.What is the suitable title of the text?A.Keeping Sustainable Development: The Strategic Goals for the Globe.B.Protecting the Environment: An Everlasting Topic throughout the World.C.Promoting Ourselves: A Better and More Advanced World in Store for Us.D.Embracing Green Living: The Growing Movement towards Sustainability.Imagining a human being without historical sense is scary. The thought of living exclusively in a present moment is scary. Scarier still is the thought of an entire generation, not to mention society, operating with a lack of a sense of history. And yet that is exactly the situation in which we find ourselves today.The people and events of history may be rooted in the past, but how we talk about those things, what we write about them, and how we teach them — in other words, how we practise history as the record of human experience — tell us a lot about who we are and what we value right now. Thinking of ourselves as a chapter in an as-yet unwritten history book, on the other hand, is likely to force deeper self-reflection: Whose stories will we stand up for? What values will we defend? What models will we offer following generations? In an era of environmental change, rising inequality and great shifts in the international political context, we need to understand how our institutions have developed. History gives us power. No other subject helps us to understand so comprehensively what it is to be human.The implications of ignorance of what have happened are incredible, but the ignorance itself isn’t entirely surprising given the lowered status of history in most schools. The discipline of history has become sidelined (边缘化). “History fights for its place in the curriculum with geography,” Dr. Bain observed, “but its attention to time, place and context is what makes it really distinct.” In other words, history doesn’t simply tell us how to be good citizens: It equips us withthe knowledge we need to comprehend our world clearly, and the ability to analyze it accurately.Clearly, in an age of “fake news”, engaged citizens need to be culturally literate, critical thinkers. There is no better subject than history to develop an appreciation of context and an ability to look for evidence. We should expect a logical history curriculum for our children. If it were common to hear graduates claim that they’d never learned to add, subtract, multiply and divide, there would be a severe protest. So should there be now.12.What is the situation the author mentioned in paragraph 1?A.The fear of the past.B.The ignorance of history.C.The exclusion of the present.D.The dissatisfaction of society.13.What does the author mainly stress in paragraph 2?A.Consequences of overlooking history.B.Significance of mastering all subjects.C.Insights from history for today and tomorrow.D.Resolutions of the current international issues.14.Which one of the following ideas might Dr. Bain agree with?A.Critical thinking is key to studying history well.B.Schools should enhance the status of history curriculum.C.Ignorance of history is not as terrible as expected in schools.D.Geography proves more meaningful and practical than history.15.What does the underlined sentence “So should there be now.” mean?A.The historical sense can help us differentiate the news.B.People are dissatisfied with graduates’ ability to calculate.C.We should make history curriculum more logical and critical.D.We should pay the same attention to history as to other subjects.A smartphone can be a lifeline in a natural disaster. 16 Unfortunately, many disasters like wildfires, floods, earthquakes and hurricanes take away the exact things phones rely on to do that work: electricity and cell services. Here are some of the best ways you can get your phone in the best shape to help you.Assume your electricity can go out at any time and plan accordingly. 17 If possible,leave them plugged in until the last minute. Also charge any backup batteries and laptops, then make sure all charging cords are collected in one place to take with you. If the power is out, or if you’re no longer someplace with an outlet, you’ll need to make any charges last as long as possible.18 Extreme cold and heat can cause your phone battery to be less efficient and even stop your phone from working. You’ll typically see a warning sign on the screen if this happens. If you can turn it off, don’t turn it back on until it’s back to an acceptable temperature. Whether it’s extreme cold or heat, avoid leaving your phone exposed and don’t leave it in a car.Your friends and family will want to know you are safe and your location in case you aren’t safe. Send your location with everyone over text, so they’ll know where to look if you lose contact. Make sure to include people outside of the disaster zone. If you are using a GPS location-sharing option, don’t just send your current spot one time. 19If you’re struggling to find reliable Internet connections, there are apps that could still help you stay in touch or give you helpful information. 20 For example, download the Google Maps information for surrounding areas in case you need to move fast and cell service isn’t available. Put in your main location, hit the three dots in the corner, select Download Offline Map. You can crop the exact area you think you’ll need.A.You should select the option to share it constantly.B.Charge your phone and any additional devices ahead of time.C.Don’t use your phone for a long time when in a natural disaster.D.It can connect you instantly to assistance and real-time resources.E.Most modern phones are sturdy but sensitive to their environments.F.Download and set them up early as part of your disaster preparation.G.If your phone gets wet, shake out any excess water and remove the battery.二、完形填空I was born with a genetic disease that causes severe weakness in my limbs.
