It was just a normal day for Ruth Miller,a 63-year-old woman until everything went horribly wrong.She was walking to her car after shopping when the unthinkable happened.
Right as she was unlocking her car,a man quickly came up behind her and tried to wrestle her purse away.She was in shock.Luckily she remembered she had her Safe Personal Alarm(SPA) on her purse,and since she was too scared to scream for help,she quickly reached for the alarm and pulled the pin(保险栓).Immediately her SPA started just screaming.The man didn’t know what to do!He froze for a second,and then ran away like a bat out of hell!
SPA is a safety device capable of creating a 125db sound that attracts attention and scares away potential attackers.To compare,it’s the same volume as a military jet during take-off.
Paul Davidson,the inventor of SPA,knows all too well the type of situation that Ruth found herself in.But that’s not the only type of situation that SPA helps protect against.Parents can give it to their kids as an extra means of protection.Teenagers can use it so they can feel safe walking home.Women can know it’s there when they have to use the parking lot at night.“My mother,who is 76 years old,carries it around in case she falls and needs to ask people for help.I only wish I’d thought of it earlier,” said Paul.
The police have been recommending SPA since it first hit the market.In fact,since its launch,SPA has been in a state,shifting between in stock to sold out nearly every other week,and it’s also got tons of loyal followers worldwide.
4.What does the underlined part “the unthinkable” in paragraph 1 refer to
A.An attempted robbery.
B.A wrestling match.
C.An angry argument.
D.A car accident.
5.How did Ruth react to the unexpected situation
A.She fought violently.
B.She froze in great fear.
C.She cried desperately for help.
D.She sounded her safety device.
6.Why does Paul mention his mother
A.To imply the elderly need more care.
B.To suggest he cares about his mother.
C.To show SPA can be widely used.
D.To make an advertisement for SPA.
7.What can be learned from the text
A.SPA is well received in the market.
B.People hesitate to pay for security.
C.SPA was sold out in the first two weeks.
D.SPA is not important in life.
Ⅴ.七选五
The aftermath(后果) of an earthquake can be horrible,but it is important that you are attentive and focused after an earthquake happens.Fires,gas leaks,and injuries are all dangers you might face after an earthquake. 1 By assessing the safety of your location and following the directions of local authorities,your chances of surviving the aftermath of an earthquake will be much higher.
Check yourself for injuries. 2 If you’re bleeding,lift your injury up and put pressure on it.If your injury is serious,call for help using a cellphone or try to get rescuers’ attention.
3 Use a cellphone to call for help if you have one.If you can’t use a phone,try knocking loudly on something nearby until rescuers find you.
Aftershocks are smaller earthquakes which follow the main shock of an earthquake. 4 So you should prepare to move to a safe location,like an open outdoor space or a structurally sound building.
Exit the building and go to a safer place once the shaking has stopped.The structure of the building you’re in may have been weakened by the main earthquake. 5
A.Signal for help if you are trapped.
B.They can cause significant damage.
C.Remain calm as the earthquake occurs.
D.The more prepared you are,the safer you’ll be.
E.Make sure you’re not seriously hurt before you do anything.
F.After the earthquake,you must get medical treatment in time.
G.Therefore,you should leave as soon as possible in case of any aftershocks.

In 1945,23-year-old Joan Hinton was one of the few female nuclear physicists joining in the Manhattan Project,an American project set up in 1942 to develop an atom bomb.Even as she rejoiced in the project’s success,she was deeply shocked when the US dropped two bombs in Japan in 1945 during World War Ⅱ.She then quit the project and left the US.

Tired of working in IT and staying the same in Australia,Paulo Cattaneo decided to make a change.In 2015 he started a strict budget so he could save up enough money to buy his dream motorbike,a camera,and enough funds to support himself for a few years.
Then he gave up his job,packed his things,and set off on an adventure,travelling the world on his motorbike.Paulo,39,has spent the last four years biking through Australia,South America,North America,and Europe,riding up to 12 hours a day and spending his nights in his tent under the stars.
“Australia for me was my first experience riding long distance and I was mind-blown by the beauty of the old continent.” Paulo wrote on his travel journal,“Traveling through Latin America,I explored the rainforest and learned Spanish and Portuguese.Mexico has some of the best food I ever had and Peru is an interesting place where I can enjoy the unique local Indian culture,also called Inca civilization.”
Paulo has managed to keep his travels going by keeping his budget tight,so he hasn’t had to get a job for his travels.To keep costs low,he seldom looked for accommodation in hotels and went camping instead.Thankfully,the motorbike,which Paulo bought secondhand in Australia,has not required any major repairs since he set off.The journey isn’t always easy,but Paulo has never looked back.
Sadly,the pandemic put a stop to his travels in Greece when he traveled around Europe,and Paulo has had to spend the last few months in Italy,his homeland.Once the world is back up and running,he plans to return to life on the road and explore Asia and Africa.

A.Change his job to live a better life.

French explorer Jacques Cartier is known mainly for exploring the St.Lawrence River and giving Canada its name.
Like many other European explorers,Jacques Cartier went to North America looking for gold,and perhaps a shortcut to Asia. 1 It became France’s main route into Canada.
Jacques Cartier was born on December 31,1491 in Brittany,a province of France.In about 1534,the king of France asked him to lead an expedition(远征) to the New World in search of riches and a new route to Asia.
2 There he and his crew explored the land around the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and met Native Americans.When he sailed back to France,he took with him two native Americans.
3 This time,Cartier sailed deeper into the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and into the Saint Lawrence River.The two Native Americans he had taken before had learned French,and they served as guides.About 260 miles inland,Cartier reached the Native American village of Stadacona.Today,the city of Quebec stands near that place.
Cartier and his men were among the first Europeans to winter in what is now Canada. 4 After returning to France he reported tales told by the native people of treasures farther inland.
Cartier once again crossed the Atlantic in 1541. 5 When he returned to France in 1542,he was told that they were just the common minerals pyrite(黄铁矿) (fool’s gold) and quartz(石英).
A.A second voyage came in May,1535.
B.Instead he found the Saint Lawrence River.
C.The bitter cold surprised them,and some of the men died.
D.He made three voyages of exploration in dangerous waters.
E.Cartier was considered one of the most devoted explorers of the period.
F.He explored further and found what he thought were gold and diamonds.
G.In the spring of 1534 Cartier sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to what is now Canada.

When we think of 10-year-old girls,the first things that come to mind may be ballet,kitchen science experiments and crazy photo faces.There’s a special bond between young girls and their moms before life fills up with more demanding schoolwork,career choices and the stress of being a grown-up.
For Joyce Phillips,taking on adult emotions came sooner than expected.Her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer when Joyce was 10 years old.The thought of losing her mother at such a young age must have been troubling Joyce.But instead of waiting out the process on the sidelines,Joyce decided to join the fight against cancer so that other kids wouldn’t have to experience the pain she was going through.
Joyce loves to sew.She wanted to make something to sell and also advertise her need for help.While trying to piece together a solution,she hit upon the ubiquitous coffee cup.People everywhere seem to be on the go in the morning with their cup of take-out coffee.So Joyce designed a coffee cup sleeve and created her non-profit Cozys for the Cure.It was a hit.Today,Joyce has raised over $120,000 to help fund breast cancer research.It all started with a desire to help.She lets us know each of us has the ability to make a difference,no matter how old or how young.
Joyce’s mother won her fight with cancer,but unfortunately,many more women and mothers will be affected.With kids like Joyce in their corner,perhaps the next best treatment will come a little sooner,save a few more lives,and means mothers and daughters will have a little more time to have fun together.
