Ⅲ.阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
A
Every year, nearly a million children in the world die because of unintentional injuries(意外伤害), and the biggest killer is the traffic accident, according to a report from the World Health Organisation.
The report says that traffic accidents, falling into water, fires, falls, and poisoning(中毒) are the five major causes of unintentional injuries. About 830,000 children under 18 die and millions of children are injured every year.
The World Health Organisation finds that roads are the most dangerous places for children, especially in developing countries. Because children in these countries haven’t learned about the dangers of road traffic, they are often not ready for the new roads that might be built through their villages.
In Asia, deaths are most often caused by bikes. It is usual to see a whole family on one bike in countries such as Vietnam. When they are knocked over, they will be badly injured and some may even die.
In the United States and other Western countries, injuries from road traffic accidents have been cut down through the use of safety seats for children and other safety measures. However, traffic accidents are still a major cause of deadly(致命的) injuries.
(　　)26.How many children die from unintentional injuries in the world every year?
A.Nearly a thousand. B.A hundred.
C.A million. D.About a million.
(　　)27.How many kinds of unintentional injuries do we learn from the passage?

(　　)28.Where are the most dangerous places according to the passage?
A.Roads. B.Rivers. C.Houses. D.Fields.
(　　)29.From the last paragraph we can learn that 　　　　. ?
A.there are no traffic accidents in the United States
B.traffic is a major cause of injuries in the United States
C.there are ways to cut the number of traffic accidents
D.people can only be injured by traffic accidents
(　　)30.The passage mainly tells us that 　　　　　. ?
A.fires are more dangerous than falls and falling into water
B.many children die from unintentional injuries every year
C.developing countries have more traffic accidents
D.unintentional injuries happen only in developing countries

TAXI DRIVER: I was driving behind a truck a few kilometres from Newton. The truck stopped suddenly. The driver did not give me a warning(警告). I was driving very slowly. I could not pass the truck because there were two cars coming near from Newton. My taxi hit the truck, and some glass cut my left hand.
TOM: I was watching the traffic about a kilometre from the airport. A truck was going to Newton. It was not going very quickly. There was a taxi about two hundred metres behind the truck. It was going fast. When the truck slowed down, the taxi hit it. The taxi driver was not looking at the truck. He was looking out of the window at something. My friend saw the accident, too.

A lot of earthquakes happen in the world every year. Why do earthquakes happen? Scientists tell us the outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates(板块). The plates move very slowly. Sometimes they stop and don’t move for a long time. When some of the earth’s plates move suddenly, an earthquake happens.
Many earthquakes happen under the sea. Sometimes they happen near mountains. In fact, earthquakes may happen anywhere on the earth.
During an earthquake, the shaking makes rocks rise suddenly and even break. Houses fall. People are killed or hurt. Sometimes whole villages or cities are destroyed.
Can we do something to keep ourselves safe from earthquakes? Scientists have studied earthquakes and made maps that show “earthquake belts”. In the areas in these belts, it’s possible for earthquakes to happen. In these areas we can make houses strong enough to stand against earthquakes.
In the future, scientists will be able to predict(预言) exactly when and where an earthquake will happen. They can tell us what to do and how to do it as well.
根据上文内容判断正(T)误(F)。

Almost every year in summer, many people are reported dead from drowning accidents. How to prevent such sad accidents? In my opinion, first, we shouldn’t go swimming in dangerous places or places we know little about, such as reservoirs and rivers. Second, we had better not swim when we feel tired or hungry.
If we see someone fall into the water, we should save him in a proper way. For example, we can shout as loudly as we can to get those people with good swimming skills to help him.
Life is valuable. We should take it seriously. We must remember that safety should always come first while swimming.
