An earthquake is one of the most common natural disasters. It may cause great damage. So it is smart to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.
Fragile items (物品) like those made of glass are easily broken and should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground. Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. So when there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly, not on you.
There is a strong chance of short circuits and fire during an earthquake. Make sure you turn off power and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.
During an earthquake, lie under an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases (楼梯) at all times.
If you are outdoors, do not take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.
If trapped in ruins, cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or the wall so rescuers can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if one is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself.
32 The passage is aimed to tell readers_______.
A. how to prevent earthquakes
B. what to do during earthquakes
C. the loss caused by earthquakes
D. the rescue work after earthquakes
33. The underlined word “Fragile” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_______”.
A. easily broken B. easily found C. costly D. heavy
34. To cut down the damage from the earthquake, items made of glass should be put_______.
A. in a place where children can’t reach them
B. in the bedroom
C. in the cupboards
D. on a lower surface

B. turn off power and gas immediately
C. take shelter under a tree
D. shout for help
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. D 35. B
【解析】

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了作者在体育课上因低血糖晕倒并被送往医院的事情，这次经历让作者意识到通过不吃饭减肥的危害，并认识到健康和精力充沛比身材苗条更为重要。因此作者决定改变生活方式，通过均衡饮食和规律锻炼来保持健康。
【56题详解】
考查形容词。句意：当我上星期四在医院醒来时，我非常害怕。空处作表语，描述主语I的情绪感受，应用以-ed结尾的形容词frightened，意为“害怕的”。故填frightened。
【57题详解】
考查原因状语从句。句意：她说我在体育课上晕倒了，因为我的血糖水平太低。said后省略that的宾语从句中，空处前后是完整的句子，“I fainted in my PE class (我在体育课上晕倒了)”是结果，“the levels of my blood sugar were too low (我的血糖水平太低)”是直接原因，前后是因果关系，应用because“因为”引导原因状语从句。故填because。
【58题详解】
考查副词。句意：幸运的是，我被立即送往医院。空处修饰整个句子，结合“I was rushed to hospital immediately”可知，fortunate的副词形式fortunately符合题意，意为“幸运的是”，且空处位于句首，fortunately的首字母需大写。故填Fortunately。
【59题详解】
考查形式主语。句意：我的经历证明，通过不吃饭来减肥是一个多么糟糕的主意。proves后省略that的宾语从句中，what a bad idea是句子的表语，此处应用固定句型it is a bad idea to do表示“做某事是个坏主意”，其中it是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式短语。故填it。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：我的经历证明，通过不吃饭来减肥是一个多么糟糕的主意。空处作by的宾语，应用skip的动名词形式。故填skipping。
【61题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：这种有严重副作用的减肥方法太危险了。空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词method，先行词指物，从句中缺少主语，应用关系代词that或which作引导词。故填that/which。
【62题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意：我也明白，健康和精力充沛比苗条更重要。根据“than”可知，此处是作比较，应用important的比较级形式，表示“更重要”。故填more important。
【63题详解】
考查介词。句意：从现在起，我会更加注意我的健康，而不是我的体重。固定短语pay attention to表示“关注，重视”。故填to。
【64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：我要均衡饮食，确保我有足够的营养。句子主干成分完整，空处作句子的目的状语，表示“为了……”，应用make的不定式形式。故填to make。
【65题详解】
考查冠词。句意：有规律的锻炼也是健康生活方式的一个重要方面。空处表示泛指，意为“一个重要方面”，应用不定冠词，且important的发音以元音音素开头，应用an。故填an。

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A few years ago, the company I worked for sent my wife and me to live in New York for a year. I've always loved running, so I was really happy when I found out I lived next to Central Park. This meant that every morning I could go for a run before I went to work.
Because a lot of people had told me to be careful of robbers in the park, so usually I didn't take anything with me. How could they rob me if I didn't have anything But one morning, my wife gave me a $ 10 bill and asked me to buy some bread on the way.
It was a beautiful morning and the park was quiet with very few people walking or jogging (慢跑) around. While I was running through the park, another jogger knocked into me. He apologized and continued running. For a while, I didn't think too much of it. However, when I noticed the wide path where I was running, I thought it was kind of strange. The warning of robbers in the park occurred to me. “It could have been a robber!” I suddenly became alarmed, so I checked my pocket and found that the money was missing. Without thinking twice, I ran after that jogger. I finally caught up and held him by the arm. I shouted, “Give me the $10 bill! Now!”I am not usually a hot-headed (性急的) person, but I got really angry this time. I couldn't believe the robbery was actually happening to me. Filled with anger, I shook my fist at him. This seemed to frighten him. He quickly put his hand in his pocket and gave me the money. Then he ran away as fast as he could.
I bought the bread and went home. As soon as I got home, I couldn't wait to tell my wife my story. “You won't believe what happened to me,” I started with pride. She immediately stopped me, “I know, you left the money for the bread on the kitchen table.”

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】读后续写范文：
Looking at the money on the table, I stood there, shocked. For the rest of the day, I felt extremely guilty, with the innocent jogger and his “helplessness”on my mind. “How could I be so rude to him without knowing the truth Why was it that the jogger gave me the money I still remember his frightened face when I scared him away like a monster. I decided to find a chance to apologize to him. The next morning, I got up and went to the park as usual, but not for jogging. I just hung around where I met that jogger, but in vain.”
For several days, I waited at the same spot. But to my disappointment, he didn’t turn up. It was almost a week later before I finally spotted him again. I, the “robber”, gave the $10 bill back to him and said sorry to him again and again. Fortunately, he forgave me for what I had done to him and said, “Oh, it doesn’t matter.” Many years have passed, but I can still feel my cheeks burning with shame. From the experience I have learned that it is too early to judge a person before you know the truth.

Buying books on the Internet is a great way to save time and money. Online bookstores offer new books and used books that can save you lots of money. They are far better compared (与……相比较）to traditional bookstores because they offer much broader kinds of books. Another advantage of shopping online is that you can also read the book reviews as well as readers’ reviews to get an idea whether the book is worth buying. Online bookstores offer great discounts(折扣)to regular customers which is a big attraction for book lovers.
For book lovers, the most important thing is to get books in time. Therefore, you need to find a reliable online bookstore that will be able to provide fast delivery (送货).
Here are some tips to use when choosing an online bookstore. Some online bookstores are popular for fiction books; some are for non-fiction books or novels, etc. Understanding their specialization will help you get the right kinds of books in time. Check whether you will be buying the books from a third-party seller or directly from the website. Although the website could be reputable (声誉好的), third-party sellers advertised on their site may not have a good reputation. Never jump at stores that offer super cheap prices, as books sold at such low prices could be in very bad condition.
Most of the popular online bookstores offer useful tools. One tool is a wish list tool on its website. You can update the list of books you wish to buy in the future. The bookstore will know what you want and will email you immediately when the book of your choice is available.

An earthquake is one of the most common natural disasters. It may cause great damage. So it is smart to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.
Fragile items (物品) like those made of glass are easily broken and should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground. Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. So when there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly, not on you.
There is a strong chance of short circuits and fire during an earthquake Make sure you turn off power and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.
During an earthquake, lie under an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases (楼梯) at all times.
If you are outdoors, do not take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.
If trapped in ruins, cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or the wall so rescuers can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if one is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself.
32. The passage is aimed to tell readers_______.
A. how to prevent earthquakes
B. what to do during earthquakes
C. the loss caused by earthquakes
D. the rescue work after earthquakes
33. The underlined word “Fragile” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_______”.
A. easily broken B. easily found C. costly D. heavy
34. To cut down the damage from the earthquake, items made of glass should be put_______.
A. in a place where children can’t reach them
B. in the bedroom
C. in the cupboards
D. on a lower surface
35. The author suggests that people should_______during the earthquake.
A. go out of the building at once
B. turn off power and gas immediately
C. take shelter under a tree
D. shout for help
