He was now so exhausted that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to struggle to keep himself from falling into the water.

The swan pretended(假装) not to notice, and said, "Why do you keep touching the water, brother? Is that another trick? "

"No," said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition. "I’m in trouble because of my pride! If you don’t help me, I’ll lose my life…"

To most of us, home is the safest and warmest place in the world. But seventh graders at Zhenhai Jiaochuan Academy of Ningbo are trying to figure out ways to escape their homes as quickly as possible in case of an emergency.

Teachers asked students to draw emergency evacuation（紧急撤离）maps of their homes to

learn about how to escape in the event of a fire.

The project meant a lot to Shen Yechen. When he was younger, the 13-year-old once played with fire and almost burned his family's house down. Since then, the possibility of another fire has always been on his mind. By drawing the map, he said he was able to overcome his fear.

On his map, Shen marked possible sources of fire at home, including the fridge, computer and bookshelves. He said these areas should be avoided in the event of a fire.

While most students only mapped out one evacuation route, Yan Junxiao, 13, made three. Yan and his parents live on the third floor of their building. At first, he thought his family could only escape by going down the stairs. But later, he was inspired by the way his family does laundry.

Usually, Yan's family hangs laundry on their balcony. Sometimes their clothes fall to the second floor because of the wma. Instead of walking down the stairs, Yan's father sometimes climbs down outdoor air-conditioner units to get the clothes.

Does this sound like a good evacuation route? Yan also suggested using a rope to climb out the window."With so many ways to evacuate, I won't be scared, even if there is a real fire," said Yan.

26. According to Shen, all of the following are possible sources of fire EXCEPT_____________.

A. water tank

B. fridge

C. computer

D. bookshelves

27. How did Yan get inspiration for his second evacuation route?

A. From his homework

B. From the internet.

C. From the way his family does laundry

D. From his father's job.

28. Which of the following is a suitable title for this story?

A. The safest and warmest place

B. Escaping your home during a fire

C. Emergency situations in public

D. Not afraid of fire

D

The human face doesn't lie, We show sadness and happiness through our expressions. Scientists used to believe we had six basic facial expressions that tell others how we feel: sad, happy, surprised, fearful, angry and disgusted（恶心的）. But a new study shows that our faces can do-more than we think.

Scientists from Ohio State University found out that humans can actually make 21 different facial expressions alter studying how people move their facial muscles（肌肉）.

The scientists took pictures of 230 volunteers making faces in response to different descriptions. These included phrases like "you just got some great unexpected news", which produced a "happily surprised" reaction from volunteers. Others included "you smell a bad odor", which caused "disgusted" faces. In total, around 5,000 pictures were taken of the volunteers. The scientists then studied similarities of these pictures. This helped them to define a facial expression. "That tells us that these 21 emotions are expressed in the same way by nearly everyone," said Dr Aleix Martinez to The Daily Telegraph. For example, to express surprise, 92 percent of volunteers widened their eyes and opened their mouth. And 99 percent raised their cheeks and smiled to show being happy.

We are not always aware of our facial expressions, which can hold clues to how we really feel. So these results may have a big influence on medical treatment. If doctors were able to recognize more complex（复杂的）emotions, it would help doctors treat patients suffering from certain diseases.

29. How many facial expressions can human beings make, according to the study?

A.6

B. 21

C. 27

D. 230

30. How do most people make a "surprised" face?

A. By opening their eyes and mouths wide

B. By raising their cheeks.

C. By covering their mouths with their hands.

D. By laughing out loud

31. In which order did the scientists do the experiment?

a. Take pictures of volunteers' facial expressions.

b. Compare the pictures to find similarities.

c. Direct volunteers with different descriptions.

d. Find 230 volunteers to take part in the experiment

A. a-b-c-d

B. a-d-b-c

C. d-a-c-b

D. d-c-a-b

32. Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Humans can't make fake facial expressions.

B. Facial expressions can't show how we really feel.

C. People can show the same emotion with different expressions.

D. Studying facial expression's can help to improve medical treatments.
