After four silent years, the 27-year-old British singer Adele Adkins has finally introduced herself to the world again with Hello, the opening song from her third album 25, which will come out on Nov. 20.
Although Adele is a very successful singer now, music wasn’t always what she saw herself doing. At age 10, when she saw her grandmother’s pain over the death of Adele’s grandfather, she pictured herself as a heart surgeon.
"I wanted to fix people’s hearts," she told the UK music website i-D, remembering the childhood interest she’d had in biology classes until she found out that her real talent was for singing.
Adele didn’t go to medical school, but many would agree that she still has healing(治愈) powers. "Her songs find the kind of memory every listener holds somewhere in their heart. This kind of feeling is what people have always liked in Adele," said The Telegraph. "She writes a pop diary, sharing the simple secrets of her heart."
Most successful pop stars make albums at a fast pace, but not Adele. After her second album 21 won the 2012 Grammy Award for Album of the Year, she made it clear with her label that she would spend "four or five years" making her next album. She told Vogue magazine, "I won’t come out with new music until it’s better than 21."
Instead of seeking fame, Adele remained silent and moved to the countryside. In her free time, she loved to watch TV series Teen Mom, American Horror Story, and The Walking Dead.
Living life as normally as possible is important to the singer’s art. "Nobody wants to listen to a record from someone who’s not living in the real world," Adele told i-D." So I live a low-key life for my fans."
9. What does the text mainly tell us
A.The popularity of Adele’s album 25.
B.The healing powers of Adele’s music.
C.The secrets of Adele’s success in music.
D.The reason for Adele’s becoming a singer.
10. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Adele wasn’t interested in music.
B.Adele wasn’t good at music at first.
C.Music wasn’t very important in Adele’s life.
D.Music wasn’t all Adele wanted to be devoted to.
11. Why doesn’t Adele want to make albums at a fast pace
A.To live a low-key life.
B.To win the Grammy Award.
C.To guarantee the quality of her music.
D.To share the secrets of her heart as a musician.
12. What can we know about Adele
A.Her album Hello will come out on Nov. 20.
B.She has kept a diary since childhood.
C.She moved to the countryside before 2012.
D.Her works are based on real life.

How to survive a stampede
At least 154 people were killed and more than 100 others injured in a stampede(惊逃)accident that occurred at Itaewon, Seoul, Korea, during a Halloween gathering, local authorities said early Sunday morning. What should we do in case of similar crowding and trampling(踩踏) accidents Here are a few tips to increase the chances of survival in an incident.
Look for exits
If you are in a crowd, a first and most important thing is to make yourself familiar with your surroundings and mentally notice alternate exits. 13 .
Keep an eye on the crowd
14 , as panic situations can often be expected. When in danger, a few seconds can make all the difference, giving you the possibility of taking advantage of your escaping route.
15
If you find yourself in the middle of a moving crowd do not fight against the pressure, do not stand still or sit down, because you could easily get trampled. Move in the same direction of the crowd keeping your hands up by your chest like a boxer — it gives you movement and protects your chest.
Protect your head
If you fall, get up quickly. 16 , or if that is not possible, then cover your head with your arms and curl up. Do not lay on your stomach or back, as this dangerously exposes your lungs.
Move diagonally towards the exit
After you’re pushed forward, like in a wave there’s a quiet period. In that period is your chance to move, and the way you move is on a diagonal(对角) , between pockets of people. There’s always space between people. A couple of steps sideways, another wave surge, then another couple of steps in the next quiet period. 17 .
A.Avoid any choke points
B.Keep pace with the crowd
C.Be aware of the general atmosphere of the crowd
D.You don’t want to be knocked unconscious in this situation
E.You work your way out that way till you get to the outer edge
F.No matter where you are, make sure you always know how to get out
G.If you can’t keep moving by crawling in the same direction of the crowd

29. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
I went up to the roof for a break after studying for an hour and watched the 50 or so people swimming in the natural rock pool below our house. It was a sunny day--a blue, cloudless sky over a calm sea. But then, as I looked in the distance, I discovered three or four big waves heading towards the shore. I'd seen these mini-tsunamis(海啸) many times before. They were heading at speed in the direction of the pool. Most people knew how to look out for them, but from the screams that started coming from the beach, I could tell someone was in trouble.
Without thinking, I ran down into the street, holding my body board(俯伏冲浪板) on the way and shouted at a stranger to go inside my house and call the coastguard. My neighbor Moises had heard the screaming as well and was also outside with his body board, so together we rushed to the steps that led down to the sea.
Once we got closer, we discovered the waves had pulled a boy and a girl from the pool and into the open sea. I knew that the nearest boat would take at least 30 minutes to reach us. Waiting for help wasn't a choice. I wasn't used to this sort of emergency--I’d never been trained as a lifeguard-but I didn't think twice about trying to save them. I supposed in a way I wanted to impress everyone: at 19, a deal like that can seem like a good opportunity to show off.
Moises and I dived into the water and it took us 10 minutes to get to them. When we finally reached them, they were almost lifeless with only their heads coming in and out of the water. We could tell they were still alive from their small breaths but it was clear they wouldn't have been able to stay there much longer. I held the boy and pulled him over my board. Moises moved the girl onto his board. We discussed pushing them back to the shore, but we were too far out.

29.
One possible version:
We had to wait. We eagerly hoping for the arrival of the saving boat. The wild wind blew and the freezing sea water clapped our bodies continuously. 30 minutes seemed much longer as we just helplessly floated on the boundless sea. After a long time, a light spot appeared in the distance! We waved our hands and yelled out for help. The boat finally reached us and took all of us back to the shore. The two children were immediately sent to the nearest hospital.
That night, word came from the hospital that the two people were in good condition. Picturing what the merry scene would be, relief lay in my heart and happiness etched on my face. The next morning, all the people I met smiled to me and could not stop praising me. It seemed like a good opportunity to show myself off, but I didn’t mean to. In fact, I was ashamed I had thought about it. It occurred to me that helping others was priceless and everyone should be a lifeguard.
