Earthquakes happen without warning. They can happen any time of a day, at any point during the year. But don't worry because most are so weak that they cannot be felt. Only a few big ones hurt people. However, it's important to know what to do when an earthquake is happening.
Do not go outside. You could get injured from falling glass or parts of buildings. If you are outside, stay away from buildings and power lines (输电线).
Stay under a desk, table, or other strong furniture. Hold on to it. Or stay in a corner of the building. Cover your face and head with your arms and cover your mouth with a towel or clothing. Stay inside until shaking stops and it is safe to go outside.
Keep away from windows, pictures or advertisements on the wall or the building, and anything else that could fall and hurt you. Most people get injured by falling things during an earthquake, not by the shaking itself.
Also keep away from a fire. You could fall down and burn yourself on the fire.
If you are driving when an earthquake happens, stop the car if it's safe. Stay inside your car until the earthquake stops, and don't drive near bridges. Try not to stop by power lines or trees. These could fall and hurt you.
4. Most earthquakes are too________ to hurt people.
A. strong B. weak
C. dangerous D. heavy
5. From the passage, when an earthquake is happening, we should___.
A. stay under a big building B. stay under a strong furniture

Studies have shown most people fail to realise how much time they spend on their smartphones each day.
Frank and Amelia’s family were put to a test, using a free app called “Moment-Screen Time Tracker”. The Vascellaros—Frank, Amelia, 14-year-old twins Frankie and Joe, and 17-year-old Sam—all said they did not really know they were spending so much time on their phones each day.
“Honestly, I don’t feel like I’m on my phone a lot,” Amelia Vascellaro said. Amelia was on her phone far less often than Frank, according to the app. While Amelia spent about an hour per day on the phone, Frank spent closer to four hours on his phone, which came as a shock to him. The children’s times varied but they often spent more than a couple of hours on the phone as well.
Minneapolis-based Dr. Kirsten Lind Seal sees phone usage come up lot among families. Lind Seal said many family members’ phone use has become problematic.
“If we hear more than once, ‘Do you have to be on your phone right now Can you please put your phone down Did you hear what I said ’ it may be a sign that it is negatively influencing our family relationships and our daily lives,” she said.
Lind Seal said actually paying attention to how much time one spends on the phone is a good first step in deciding when to put it down.
She asks parents to encourage more face-to-face communication for teens and young adults as they continue developing their social and emotional skills. “What we find is that we are really losing out on empathy—the ability to understand other people’s feelings and problems—when we spend a lot of time on our smartphones to communicate with other people,” she said.
8. How did the Vascellaros feel about the test results
A. Satisfied. B. Doubtful. C. Uninterested. D. Surprised.
9. Why did Lind Seal mention the three questions in Paragraph 5
A. To encourage people to live simple life. B. To ask people if they use phones too much.
C To explain the signs of problematic phone use. D. To show the importance of close relationships.
10 What is the text mainly about
A. Too much use of smartphones. B. The influence of apps on teens.
C. Children’s safety on the Internet. D. Problems among family members.
11. From which is the text probably taken
A. A textbook. B. A journal C. A magazine D. A guidebook
D
What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping, but none of them is worried about the road ahead.
Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on driver-less cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has gotten a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.
These cars are now still in the testing stages. But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driven cars could be put into use very soon.
The cars already have many features allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions. Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driven car might be possible.
The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car may be able to prevent these. However, some people don't like the idea. American lawyer White Drake, for example, does not believe these cars are safe. He thinks technologies can also make mistakes.
12. The main purpose of the first paragraph is to ________.
A. make readers wonder about self-driven cars B. get readers to pay attention to road safety
C. tell readers to keep away from heavy traffic D. tell readers what self-driven cars are
13. From the passage, the self-driven cars already have the following features EXCEPT________.
A. parking itself B. controlling its speed in dangerous situations
C. slowing itself down near an object D. avoiding car accidents one hundred percent
14. What might make the self-driven cars run safely according to the passage
a. e-reading b. wireless signals c. cameras d. GPS
A. a,b,c B. a,b,d C. b,c,d D. a,c,d
15. What is White Drake's attitude toward the safety of the self-driven cars
A. He has doubt about it. B. He believes it completely.
C. He doesn't care about it. D. He thinks its technologies are convincing.

Ali and his younger sister, Zahra, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months, the landlord was breathing down their necks.
One day, Ali took Zahra's shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn't until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali's running shoes. Zahra's school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.
Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the city. When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.

Studies have shown most people fail to realise how much time they spend on their smartphones each day.
Frank and Amelia’s family were put to a test, using a free app called “Moment-Screen Time Tracker”. The Vascellaros—Frank, Amelia, 14-year-old twins Frankie and Joe, and 17-year-old Sam—all said they did not really know they were spending so much time on their phones each day.
“Honestly, I don’t feel like I’m on my phone a lot,” Amelia Vascellaro said. Amelia was on her phone far less often than Frank, according to the app. While Amelia spent about an hour per day on the phone, Frank spent closer to four hours on his phone, which came as a shock to him. The children’s times varied but they often spent more than a couple of hours on the phone as well.
Minneapolis-based Dr. Kirsten Lind Seal sees phone usage come up lot among families. Lind Seal said many family members’ phone use has become problematic.
“If we hear more than once, ‘Do you have to be on your phone right now Can you please put your phone down Did you hear what I said ’ it may be a sign that it is negatively influencing our family relationships and our daily lives,” she said.
Lind Seal said actually paying attention to how much time one spends on the phone is a good first step in deciding when to put it down.
She asks parents to encourage more face-to-face communication for teens and young adults as they continue developing their social and emotional skills. “What we find is that we are really losing out on empathy—the ability to understand other people’s feelings and problems—when we spend a lot of time on our smartphones to communicate with other people,” she said.
8. How did the Vascellaros feel about the test results
A. Satisfied. B. Doubtful. C. Uninterested. D. Surprised.
9. Why did Lind Seal mention the three questions in Paragraph 5
A. To encourage people to live simple life. B. To ask people if they use phones too much.
C. To explain the signs of problematic phone use. D. To show the importance of close relationships.
10. What is the text mainly about
A. Too much use of smartphones. B. The influence of apps on teens.
C. Children’s safety on the Internet. D. Problems among family members.
11 From which is the text probably taken
A. A textbook. B. A journal C. A magazine D. A guidebook
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. C
【解析】

What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping, but none of them is worried about the road ahead.
Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on driver-less cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has gotten a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.
These cars are now still in the testing stages. But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driven cars could be put into use very soon.
The cars already have many features allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions. Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driven car might be possible.
The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car may be able to prevent these. However, some people don't like the idea. American lawyer White Drake, for example, does not believe these cars are safe. He thinks technologies can also make mistakes.
12. The main purpose of the first paragraph is to ________.
A. make readers wonder about self-driven cars B. get readers to pay attention to road safety
C. tell readers to keep away from heavy traffic D. tell readers what self-driven cars are
13. From the passage, the self-driven cars already have the following features EXCEPT________.
A. parking itself B. controlling its speed in dangerous situations
C. slowing itself down near an object D. avoiding car accidents one hundred percent
14. What might make the self-driven cars run safely according to the passage
a. e-reading b. wireless signals c. cameras d. GPS
A. a,b,c B. a,b,d C. b,c,d D. a,c,d
15. What is White Drake's attitude toward the safety of the self-driven cars
A. He has doubt about it. B. He believes it completely.
C. He doesn't care about it. D. He thinks its technologies are convincing.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了包括谷歌在内的几家公司都在研发无人驾驶汽车。到目前为止,还没有谷歌自动驾驶汽车收到过交通罚单,但其中一些汽车发生过其他汽车撞到它们的事故。文章介绍了自动驾驶汽车的一些功能以及人们对此的看法。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping, but none of them is worried about the road ahead.(如果汽车能自动驾驶,世界将会是什么样子?想象一下,看到一辆空车在去接车主的路上经过,或者一辆满载乘客的车正在阅读、听音乐甚至睡觉,但他们都不担心前面的路)”可推知,第一段的主要目的是让读者对无人驾驶汽车产生疑问。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions.(其中一些功能包括汽车能够自动停车,或者当他们注意到附近的物体时减速。如果有危险的情况,他们也可以控制速度)”可知,无人驾驶汽车可以自动停车、在危险的情况下控制速度以及在靠近物体时减速。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driven car might be possible.(科学家和工程师相信,在无线信号、摄像头和全球定位系统的帮助下,我们现在处于一个阶段,创造一辆安全的自动驾驶汽车可能成为可能)”可知,无线信号、摄像头和 GPS可以使自动驾驶汽车安全运行。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“American lawyer White Drake, for example, does not believe these cars are safe. He thinks technologies can also make mistakes.(例如,美国律师White Drake认为这些汽车并不安全。他认为技术也会出错)”可推知,White Drake对自动驾驶汽车的安全性表示怀疑。故选A。

Ali and his younger sister, Zahra, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months, the landlord was breathing down their necks.
One day, Ali took Zahra's shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn't until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali's running shoes. Zahra's school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.
Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the city. When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.

【答案】Paragraph 1:
The day of race arrived. Ali had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Zahra and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right behind the two fastest runners, determined to finish third. Finally, he heard the announcement from the broadcast that he won the third prize. Holding the shoes close to his chest during the award ceremony, Ali felt overjoyed and relieved as he eventually won the shoes for his sister.(Refusing to give up at this point, he jumped to his feet and ran as fast as he could. He dashed across the finish line and won the fourth prize. Thinking he would let her sister down, Ali couldn't help sobbing. Just then he suddenly heard the announcement from the broadcast that he won the third prize as the runner who collided with Ali was disqualified for breaking the rule. Holding the shoes close to his chest during the award ceremony, Ali felt overjoyed and relieved as he eventually won the shoes for his sister. )
Paragraph 2:
Filled with delight, Ali walked home quickly. He could not wait to see his sister and share the good news. On his arrival, Ali found Zahra was waiting outside. Nervous and anxious, Zahra wondered whether her brother had brought her what she was expecting. “Zahra, see what I have got for you.” Ali said excitedly, taking the prize out of his bag with his trembling hands. The instant Zahra saw the shoes, her face lit up. So thrilled was she that she threw herself at Ali. “Thank you! Ali.” Tears of joy welled up in their eyes as the brother and the sister hugged tightly together.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开,主角是生在穷苦家庭的一对兄妹,有一天哥哥Ali拿着妹妹Zahra的鞋去修,却在回家路上把鞋弄丢了,为了不让父母生气俩人约定保守秘密:哥哥早上穿鞋去学校,中午跑回家把鞋换给妹妹。城里举办了长途赛跑,第三名奖品是一双新鞋,Ali决定为了妹妹去参加。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“比赛的日子到了。Ali开头跑得很好,但比赛中途他开始感到累了,腿也开始疼。”可知,第一段可描写Ali在为妹妹赢得新鞋的信念支持下,咬着牙坚持下来,最终赢得了第三名。
②由第二段首句内容“Ali满怀喜悦地快速走回家。”可知,第二段可描写Ali回到家后,和妹妹一起分享了赢得新鞋的喜悦。
