A
A list of Benjamin Franklin's inventions reveals a man of many talents and interests.His natural curiosity about things and the way they work made him try to find ways to make them work better.
Ben had poor vision and needed glasses to read.He got tired of constantly taking them off and putting them back on, so he decided to figure out how his glasses would let him see both near and far.He had two pairs of glasses cut in half and put half of each lens (镜片) in a single frame.Today, we call them bifocals (双光眼镜)．
Everyone knows the story of Ben's famous kite flight.Although he made important discoveries and advancements, Ben did not “invent” the electricity.He did, however, invent the lightning rod which protects buildings and ships from lightning.
In colonial America, most people warmed their homes by building a fire in a fireplace even though it was dangerous and used a lot of wood.Ben figured that there had to be a better way.His invention of an iron furnace stove allowed people to warm their homes less dangerously and with less wood.The furnace stove that he invented is called the Franklin Stove.Interestingly enough, Ben also established the first fire company and the first fire insurance company in order to help people live more safely.
As a postmaster, Ben had to figure out routes for delivering the mail.He went out riding in his carriage to measure the routes and needed a way to keep track of the distance.He invented a simple odometer (里程表) and attached it to his carriage.
Later, other famous inventors, like Tomas A．Edison and Alexander Graham Bell, followed in Ben's footsteps by trying to find ways to help people live better.

B．It is much safer and can save wood.

A．They had a strong desire to make life better.
B．They were excellent students at school.
C．They were born in the same age.
D．They made people's life simple.
解析：选A 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“by trying to find ways to help people live better”可推知，这些科学家们都有强烈的使人们的生活更加美好的渴望，故A项正确。
4．What would be the best title for this passage?
A．The life of Benjamin Franklin
B．Benjamin Franklin, a great inventor
C．A man of many talents and interests
D．How to help people live better
解析：选B 主旨大意题。全文讲述了本杰明·富兰克林从生活的实际出发，发明了一系列有利于自己、有利于他人的实用物品，故B项符合全文的主旨。

Charles Dickens was born on February 7, 1812, the son of John and Elizabeth Dickens. John Dickens was a clerk in the Naval Pay Office. He had a poor head for finances, and finally found himself imprisoned for debt.
When the family paid off the debt and his father was set free, the twelve-year-old Dickens, already hurt by the experience, was further wounded by his mother's insistence that he continued to work at Warren's Blacking Factory.
His father, however, rescued him from that fate (命运), and between 1824 and 1827 Dickens was a day pupil at a school in London. At fifteen, he found employment as an office boy at a lawyer's, while he studied shorthand (速记法) at night. His work memories at the Blacking Factory entered his mind repeatedly all of his life — he spoke of it only to his wife and to his closest friend, John Forster — but the dark secret became a source of creative energy with the themes of alienation (离间) and betrayal which would appear mostly in David Copperfield and in Great Expectations.
In 1829 he became a reporter at Doctor's Commons Courts, and in 1830 he met and fell in love with Maria Beadnell, the daughter of a banker. By 1832 he had become a very successful reporter of Parliamentary debates in the House of Commons, and began work as a reporter for a newspaper.
In 1833 his relationship with Maria Beadnell ended, probably because her parents did not think him a good match. In the same year his first published story appeared, and was followed, very shortly thereafter, by a number of other stories and sketches (短剧). In 1834, still a newspaper reporter, he adopted the soon-to-be-famous penname “Boz”. His poor father, who was the original of Mr Micawber in David Copperfield, was once again arrested for debt, and Charles was forced to come to his aid. Later in his life both of his parents and his brothers were frequently after him for money.
语篇解读：2012年2月7日是狄更斯诞辰200周年纪念日。本文介绍了狄更斯早期的生活以及对他的作品的影响。
5．What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A．Charles' father once worked at the Blacking Factory.
B．Charles' mother was kind to him.
C．Charles didn't like to work at the Blacking Factory.
D．Charles made a lot of money by working.
解析：选C 推理判断题。分析第二段尤其是最后一句中的“further wounded”可知，狄更斯根本不喜欢在Warren's Blacking Factory工作。
6．We can infer from the last paragraph that Maria's parents ________.
A．thought Charles would become famous
B．were not satisfied with Charles
C．had to give in to Maria and Charles
D．decided to marry their daughter to Charles
解析：选B 推理判断题。分析最后一段第一句可知，玛丽亚的父母认为狄更斯配不上他们的女儿，显然他们不喜欢狄更斯。
7．According to the text, Charles Dickens ________.
A．was the son of a person who was good at finances
B．was a newspaper reporter from 1829 to 1834
C．wrote his father into his book Great Expectations
D．seldom talked about his life at the Blacking Factory
解析：选D 细节理解题。文章第三段说，他在那家工厂的记忆在一生中都在脑海中不断地浮现，而这些他只跟他妻子和最好的朋友说起过，可见D项是正确的。
8．Which of the following is the correct RIGHT order to describe Charles' life according to the text?
①Charles Dickens was a day pupil at a school in London.
②Charles Dickens had his first story published.
③Charles Dickens became a reporter at Doctor's Commons Courts.
④Charles Dickens continued to work at Warren's Blacking Factory.
⑤Charles Dickens adopted the penname “Boz”．
A．①④③⑤② B．④①③②⑤
C．④①②③⑤ D．①②③④⑤
解析：选B 细节理解题。从第二、三段可知，狄更斯首先在Warren's Blacking Factory做工，随后成为伦敦一所学校的一名学生(1824～1827)。从第四段可知，1829年，他成了Doctor's Common Courts的一名记者，从最后一段第一、二句可知，他1833年发表第一部作品，1834年，使用了Boz这一笔名。故选B。

As a senior, you do not have to punish someone simply because he/she is your junior. Even when a junior does something wrong, you do not always have to punish him or her.__4__
If you are not fond of punishing people on the least mistake they make, they will not pick on you and be mean(刻薄的) to you.__5__ Explain to them why they should not do what they did again and I believe there will be peace.
It is, however, wrong for students or parents to curse，harm or insult teachers and seniors.It does not show respect.Two wrongs never make a right so tell all your friends who are seniors not to bully the young ones but to show them love.With time things will change.
A．Sometimes you only have to correct him/her without any punishment.
B．A good teacher always motivates a student，no matter how tough the situation is.
C．Teachers are your role models and they act as your parents while in school.
D．As a teacher, one should be very careful to every single word he/she says, because it has a big impact to the students.

If you want to walk in the footsteps of some of the world's greatest figures, then go to Oxford. Many of Oxford's 38 colleges are open to the public year-round. Here are a few of the colleges worth visiting and some famous people who have studied there：
Christ Church College
Long before it became known as a location for the Harry Potter films, Christ Church was the college where Albert Einstein, author Charles Dodgson who wrote Alice in Wonderland, and 13 British prime ministers studied. In the largest and one of the most popular colleges, you'll want to see the paintings in the 16th-century Great Hall, historic Christ Church Cathedral — England's smallest cathedral, and listen to Great Tom, the seven-ton tower bell.
Magdalen College
Many consider Magdalen to be one of the most beautiful of Oxford's colleges. This is where author Oscar Wilde read “Greats” (a classics course) in the 1870s, and where actor, comedian and pianist Dudley Moore earned a scholarship to study music. See the medieval (中世纪的) church with its 15th-century tower. Opposite the college is the beautiful Botanic Garden — Britain's oldest — founded in 1621.
Merton College
Founded in 1264, Merton has the oldest medieval library in use. J．R.R. Tolkien is said to have spent many hours here writing The Lord of the Rings. One of the college's treasures is an astrolabe (星盘), thought to have belonged to Chaucer. The college has “the most amazing” collection of medieval coloured glass in Oxford.
Bodleian Library
The Bodleian Library, the main research library of the University of Oxford, is the largest university library in the UK. It is one of the oldest libraries in Europe, and in Britain is second in size only to the British Library. It holds more than 9 million printed items on 189 km of shelving and seats up to 2,500 readers. The users of the library here include five kings, 40 Nobel Prize winners, 25 British prime ministers and countless famous writers.
1．If a Harry Potter fan travels to Oxford, he'll probably visit ________.
A．Merton College B．Bodleian Library
C．Magdalen College D．Christ Church College
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据Christ Church College部分介绍的“it became known as a location for the Harry Potter films”可推知，《哈利·波特》系列电影的影迷很可能参观Christ Church College。
2．Which of the following can travelers see in Magdalen College?
A．A 15th-century tower.
B．A seven-ton tower bell.
C．England's smallest cathedral.
D．Britain's oldest botanic garden.
解析：选A 细节理解题。根据Magdalen College部分介绍的“See the medieval (中世纪的) church with its 15th-century tower.”可知答案。
3．According to the text, J．R.R. Tolkien is ________.
A．the founder of Merton College
B．the author of The Lord of the Rings
C．the designer of the oldest medieval library
D．the owner of the astrolabe in Merton College
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据Merton College部分介绍的“J.R.R. Tolkien is said to have spent many hours here writing The Lord of the Rings.”可知答案。
4．What do we know about the Bodleian Library?
A．It lies in Magdalen College.
B．It is the most famous library in the UK.
C．It has a collection of 2,500 kinds of books.
D．It is smaller than the British Library.
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据Bodleian Library部分介绍的“in Britain is second in size only to the British Library”可知。
B
The London Eye, which is 450 feet in height above the Thames River, is the world's biggest spinning structure. It is one hundred feet taller than Big Ben, and weighs 1,600 tons. It was built to celebrate the year 2,000. Maybe building such a big spinning structure suggested that people longed for bigger and better things in the future.
Why did people think of building the London Eye? In fact it was inspired by great structures of the past like the very first observation wheel built for the Chicago World Expo of 1893. It's twice the size of the wheel, but three times lighter, and much more comfortable. The London Eye is keeping natives and visitors entertained and awed (敬畏的)．
In London Eye, there are 32 capsules (舱). Each of the capsules can hold up to 25 people. And they're air conditioned in summer, heated in winter. From these capsules the visitors can see the most beautiful views of London.
It was difficult to assemble (安装) and put a wheel of this size. And it required new technology and a lot of imagination. The parts of London Eye were sent_up the Thames River, and the wheel was assembled on temporary (暂时的) platforms on the river. Lifting it into an upright position was a major challenge. It took a week to winch (吊) it up to its final position.
Now the London Eye is regarded as a monument to new millennium. And many visitors from all over the world come to visit it.
5．How tall is Big Ben?
A．450 feet. B．350 feet.
C．550 feet. D．250 feet.
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据第一段第一、二句可知伦敦眼高450英尺，它比大本钟高了100英尺，由此可计算出大本钟高350英尺。
6．The underlined phrase “sent up” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”．
A．launched B．set up
C．made up D．lifted up
解析：选D 词义猜测题。根据本段倒数第二句可知把它直立起来是一个很大的挑战，由此可知伦敦眼是在泰晤士河上被吊起的，故这里的意思同lift up。
7．Which of the following is NOT true about the London Eye?
A．It was the world's biggest spinning structure.
B．It can hold about 800 people to see the views of London at a time.
C．It was twice times lighter than the observation wheel in Chicago.
D．The temperature in it can change with the season.
解析：选C 细节理解题。根据第二段倒数第二句可知C项错误。
8．From the text, we can learn that ________.
A．it took great trouble for people to build the London Eye
B．the London Eye has been changed into a monument
C．the latest technology was used to assemble the London Eye
D．imagination is very important to build the London Eye
解析：选A 推理判断题。根据第四段第一句及以下的内容可推知，建造伦敦眼经历了很多困难。

1．A.well B．good
C．blind D．sad
解析：选C 由下文可知因为事故导致Jason失明，最后一段给出明确提示，因此选用blind“看不见的”。
2．A.looking B．seeing
C．finding D．watching
解析：选A 根据后面的介词at可判断应用词组look at。
3．A.sad B．happy
C．thoughtful D．cool

4．A.feeling B．guessing
C．considering D．owing
解析：选A “How are you feeling today？”是一个日常习惯用语，意为“你今天感觉怎么样？”
5．A.come up B．put in
C．come in D．put up
解析：选D 文章中是Sam努力“表现出”勇敢，故选D。
6．A.what B．that
C．which D．how
解析：选B 考查定语从句。all代替的是物体，在定语从句中先行词是all，关系代词用that而不用which。
7．A.interested B．surprised

C．else D．some
解析：选A one way or another意为“无论如何都”。
9．A.ask B．ask for
C．tell D．tell about

13．A.patient B．person
C．brother D．doctor
解析：选B 根据全句，只是表示Sam是一个残疾“人”。因为已经出院，已经不能称为病人，因此可排除patient。
14．A.to B．of
C．than D．but
解析：选C other than“除了”。句意：Sam除了Jason没有任何其他的人可以依靠了。其他三项无此搭配。
15．A.count B．call
C．beg D．follow
解析：选A count on为固定词组，表示“依靠”之意。
16．A.despair B．joy
C．happiness D．sadness
解析：选A in despair“绝望”。出院后Sam的生活非常孤独，所以他是在“绝望”中死去的。
17．A.expecting B．asking
C．waiting D．looking

18．A.expression B．view
C．eyesight D．sight
解析：选A 从文中我们可看出Dr.Berkeley对Jason的行为没有好感，又因为Sam的去世，所以给他信的时候没有任何表情。expression“表情”。

20．A.anything B．nothing

A
Free energy is everywhere around us. There are many ways to make and collect energy from various sources like sun, wind and water. People also realize that everyday stuff can be a source of energy too. For example, riding a bike, running or just walking, etc. We simply have to change our way of thinking if we want to change the world.
So comes the idea of solar roadways. Are they the road of future? Why use roads just for driving and collecting tolls (过路费)? Why don't we use them for collecting energy?
The US Department of Transportation recently awarded $100,000 to Solar Roadways to build the first ever Solar Road Panel. So how do these future roads work?
The Solar Road Panels will contain embedded (嵌入的) LEDs which “paint” the road lines from beneath to provide safer nighttime driving as well as to give drivers instant instructions such as detour (绕行) ahead. The road will be able to sense wildlife on the road and can warn drivers to “slow down”. There will also be embedded heating elements in the surface to prevent snow and ice buildup, providing safer winter driving.
Replacing asphalt (沥青) roads and parking lots with Solar Roadway Panels will be a major step toward stopping climate change. Fully electric vehicles will be able to recharge along the roadway and in parking lots, finally making electric cars practical for long trips.
We just can't wait to see more of these roads all over the world in the near future.
1．Which of the following is NOT true of LEDs?
A．They color the road lines.
B．They are embedded in the Solar Road Panels.
C．They are beneficial for nighttime driving.
D．They can provide instant instructions.
解析：选A 细节理解题。由第四段第一句可知， LEDs 是被嵌入到太阳能道路中，呈现出颜色，而非将道路线染色，故可推知，A项错误。
2．When some animals are on the solar road, what will the road do?
A．Guide them to a safer place.
B．Remind drivers to drive slowly.
C．Frighten them away from the road.
D．Advise drivers to choose another way.
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据第四段第二句可知选B项。
3．From the text, we can know that the Solar Road Panels can ________.
A．provide heat for drivers in winter
B．guide drivers who get lost on the highway
C．melt snow and ice soon in winter
D．help drivers see the road clearly in the sun
解析：选C 细节理解题。 结合第四段最后一句可知选C项。
4．What is the text mainly about?
A．Functions of the road in the future.
B．Development of solar energy.
C．Free energy on the road.
D．Solar road of the future.
解析：选D 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一种未来的道路——太阳能道路。 故D项符合主题。

These are some ideas that some people came up with about what the life will be like in the year 2500.
We will have established a base on the moon. School kids can take field trips to the moon weekly. We will have found cures (疗法) for AIDS and cancer. The war will have ended and peace flows freely through the land. Kids will learn more and be smarter than ever before! History will be the main subject at school. Cafeteria (自助餐厅) food will be delicious! You just walk up to a machine, stick out your tongue, and it will scan your taste buds (味蕾) to see what you want to eat.
— Kristen
Here I am in the wonderful year of 2500 and life is so easy. I work in a pet store and it is so hard! I have to wake up at midnight every day and fly my car to the store. It takes so long to get there. It takes me 20 seconds to get to the store in Mississippi from my home in Florida! At work, I have to push 5 buttons and then I go home. It takes 2 seconds and that is like forever.
— Morgan
In the year 2500, I think we will have invented cars that run on things we don't need like garbage. Tail gas will smell like whatever you like such as chocolate. I also predict that buildings will be able to go into a different dimension (维) so your car won't hit them. The cars in 2500 don't fly, for we haven't got that technology yet, but they can hover up to seven feet. These cars are made for speed!
— Carly
Instead of cars, we may have hovering devices that float around. We could also have electric cars instead of gas-powered cars. Food might be more healthy. What I believe is that the environment will change the most. The environmental changes will also determine many other changes. If more people try to help the environment, then perhaps in 2500 we will have more forests and wildlife. If people won't help the environment, then we will have no forests and little wildlife left.
— Roberta
5．According to Kristen, what will happen in 2500?
A．English will be the main subject at school.
B．Students can go to the moon every week.
C．Cafeteria will replace other restaurants.
D．AIDS and cancer will disappear.
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据文章中克里斯滕所说的话“School kids can take field trips to the moon weekly.”可知，B项为正确答案。
6．Morgan thinks his work in the pet store is
________.
A．difficult B．meaningless
C．important D．easy
解析：选D 推理判断题。文章中摩根对他工作的具体描述使用的是反语，他真实的意思是“这份工作太轻松了”。他的第一句话和最后一句是对该意思的提示，故选D项。
7．Who mainly tells the reader of the cars in 2500?
A．Kristen. B．Morgan.
C．Carly. D．Roberta.
解析：选C 段落大意题。根据文章中卡力所说的那段话可知，他主要谈到的是2500年的汽车，包括汽车的燃料、废气及功能等，故选C项。
8．Roberta thinks that in 2500 ________.
A．the environment will have changed a lot
B．there will be more wildlife and forests
C．the environment will be seriously damaged
D．cars will run on solar power and electricity
解析：选A 细节理解题。根据文章中罗伯塔所说的那段话可知，她所坚信的是环境一定会变化很大，或往好的方面变化，或往坏的方面变化。

Print newspapers will soon be part of our history. While the Internet and some other media are rapidly developing in a world where people's lifestyles are more than busy, there seems to be less time for newspapers. The newspaper industry, in countries where newspapers dominated as a medium for many years, is now struggling more than ever.
Newspaper circulation (发行量) has been declining since over 20 years ago. “I foresee, in one or two generations, a society where you will access a newspaper only from a hand?held screen，” warns William Papatassos, Blue & Gold advisor.
The Internet attracts most of the younger people. The problem of newspapers is called “18 to 35?year?old people”. This group of people is not willing to replace the regular readers who grew up using this traditional medium. And they like to surf the Internet to search for information. Some experts predict that by 2043, in America and many other countries, newspapers will no longer exist.
Fortunately, print newspapers still exist and offer advantages to readers. “Newspapers encourage more thoughtful thinking，” says journalist Kathleen Jasonides.“At this point, there is still room for it. Some people do not like reading shortened articles online.”
But some newspapers including the Blue & Gold provide articles of online editions (版本), bearing in mind the increasing use of the Internet. However, the great variety of specialized information offered by many other websites prevents these online editions from developing. In addition, the newspaper industry has kept its best journalists for print; therefore the quality of articles is not the same.
The only thing that we know for sure is that print newspapers are facing a crisis due to lack of revenues (收入) from traditional advertising and the appearance of the Internet.
1．The first two paragraphs mainly imply that print newspapers________.
A．are facing a greater opportunity
B．are always part of people's lifestyles
C．are suffering a dreadful challenge
D．have been a leading medium
解析：选C 推理判断题。从文章第一、二段的内容可知，由于因特网和一些其他媒体的迅速发展，报纸已经不再是主流媒体。所以C项符合题意。
2．According to the passage, the people aged 18～35
________.
A．aren't ready to use other media to replace
newspapers
B．regard the Internet as a main source of news
C．are the regular readers of print newspapers
D．are growing up using the traditional medium
解析：选B 细节理解题。由第三段第三、四句可知B项正确。
3．We can know the following from the passage EXCEPT that ________.
A．print newspapers have been gradually losing their readers since the 1980s
B．it is believed by some experts that newspapers will disappear in many countries by 2043
C．articles of online editions can increase newspapers' revenues
D．some newspapers provide articles of online editions due to the growing use of the Internet
解析：选C 细节理解题。C 项的表述在文章中并没有提及。第二段第一句告诉我们 A 项正确；第三段的最后一句告诉我们 B 项正确；由第五段的第一句可知 D 项正确。
4．We can most probably read this passage________.
A．in a newspaper B．in a textbook
C．in a novel D．in a comic book
解析：选A 推理判断题。从文章内容来看，本文是在介绍报纸的不乐观的前景，还有一些专家的评论。这样的文章最可能出现在报纸上。故选A。
B
The best reporters I know are bright, persistent, honest, curious and courageous. If you asked them to explain their success, this is what they might say：
Helen: A good reporter is a generalist, able to deal with a number of topics and talk with a variety of people. He or she can see the unusual, the ironic (讽刺的) in the everyday. She can think through all the possibilities and organize a large amount of information to find the important parts.
Jack: A good reporter is quick. Once he is assigned a story, he goes after it. He makes the calls and keeps trying if he doesn't make contact. Besides, a good reporter is curious.He or she takes pleasure in the new, and in the old, in the history or previous examples that got us where we are. He enjoys reading and appreciates the details.
Susan: A good reporter is pleasant. She adopts a friendly nature with those she meets. She is a grateful guest, with a belief in the basic goodness of people. She conveys to those she meets that she is tolerant of them and their ideas, even though she doesn't like them or what they stand for.
Tom: A good reporter is honest. He seeks the truth and acts independently. He does what he says he's going to do, and doesn't do anything he promised to avoid. He returns his calls, and he's willing to say no. He's obsessed with accuracy and double checks his facts with call?backs. He sees both sides to every issue.
Richard: As Jon Franklin, reporter, author and teacher, said, “Back when I first started, I thought intelligence was the most important attribute a reporter could have. I have since changed my mind. You do have to be intelligent, but the big thing is courage. Courage to open your mind and let the whole damned confusing world in. Courage to always be the ignorant one, on somebody else's turf. Courage to stand corrected. Courage to take criticism. Courage to grow with your experiences. Courage to accept what you don't understand. Most of all, courage to see what is there and not what you want to think is there.”
5．What would be the best title of the text?
A．How a Reporter Makes Good News
B．What a Reporter Does
C．Newspapers
D．How to Be a Good Reporter

A．Helen. B．Jack.
C．Susan. D．Tom.
解析：选A 细节理解题。根据 Helen 所说的 “He or she can see the unusual, the ironic in the everyday” 可知答案为 A。
7．According to Susan, what should you do if you can't agree with somebody?
A．Saying no. B．Being pleasant.
C．Getting angry. D．Walking away.
解析：选B 推理判断题。根据第四段 Susan 所说的话可知选 B。
8．In the eyes of Tom, a good reporter should not________.
A．seek the truth
B．check the facts
C．see every issue from different angles
D．be unwilling to say no to others
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据第五段可知 A、B、C 项都是一个好记者应该做的。一个好记者愿意说不，所以选 D。

Dear Editor，
Recently several small shops around our school have started a new business calling “school lottery”．
Each lottery ticket cost five jiao and lots of students get addicted of this game.Some students use their money who should be spent on food to buy the tickets and some even borrow money to join in the chance game.
In my opinion, it is necessary to take measure to stop the game.On one hand, the school should explain the harmless effects of lottery to students and make rules to forbidding students buying lottery tickets.On other hand, the local government should punish shop owners who carry out such business between students.
If both the school and the government cooperate in fighting it, I think the school lottery activity will be effective stopped.
Yours sincerely，
Chen Hua

How can fire or hot things be a danger in the house? Matches, of course, are always dangerous in the hands of young children. A wind comes, sparks are blown on to the roof of a house, and the whole building may be burnt to the ground before you can even call the Fire Brigade. Kerosene lamps, too, can be very dangerous. Quite recently there was a bad accident in a village house. The mosquito net over a baby's bed was blown against a lamp and caught fire. The bedclothes and even the clothes of the baby were burnt before the fire was discovered.
Young children often reach up to a table to take a pot down by its handle. If the pot is full of boiling water, you can guess what will happen. Similarly, when a baby's bath is prepared, cold water should be put in first. If any hot water has to be used, it should be put into the bath after the cold water but not before it.
Many fireworks can lead to blindness and other injuries, especially those are pushed into bamboo sticks. Wooden spears or swords should be used only by children with sense enough not to injure other people.
Very young children often have to be watched very carefully. They put everything they find into their mouths to see whether it can be eaten. Medicines have to be put out of their reach. A pill or some ointment which might be harmless to a grown-up can be very harmful to a baby.
If there are stairs in your house, do not put a mat at the top of them unless you want to crash down the stairs on your shoulder or head. Make sure, too, that your mats do not have curly edges. These are dangerous for the very young and the very old: those who cannot see as well as we can. If there are any deep holes in or near your garden, see that they are filled in or properly covered up.
This gloomy list of the dangers in and near a house is not complete, but it is enough to remind you to be careful. If you want to take a risk, do it on the sports field or, when you are older, by serving your country in the Army.
1．A child shouldn't be allowed to take a pot full of boiling water because ________.
A．he may hurt himself by doing so
B．he may break the pot
C．the pot is too heavy for a child

Donating blood is a simple thing to do, but it can make a big difference in the lives of others. The donation process from the time you arrive until the time you leave takes about an hour. The donation itself is only about 8－10 minutes on average. The steps in the process are：
Step 1: Registration
1．Our staff and volunteers will sign you in and go over basic eligibility (资格) and donation information.
2．You will read information about donating blood, and will be asked to show a donor card, driver's license, or other form(s) of ID.
Step 2: Health History & Mini-Physical
1．You will answer some questions during a private and confidential interview about your health history and places you have travelled.
2．We will check your temperature, pulse, blood pressure and hemoglobin (血红蛋白) level present in a sample of blood.
Step 3: The Donation
1．We will clean an area on your arm and insert a brand new clean needle for the blood draw. This feels like a quick pain and is over in seconds.
2．The actual donation takes about 8－10 minutes, during which you will be seated comfortably. Certain donation types, such as platelets (血小板) or red cells can take up to 2 hours.
3．When approximately a pint of blood has been collected, the donation is complete and a staff person will place a bandage on your arm.
Step 4: Refreshments
1．After donating, you should have a snack and something to drink in the refreshments area. You can leave the site after 10－15 minutes and continue with your normal daily activities.
2．Enjoy the feeling of accomplishment knowing that you have helped save lives.
