ATo avoid becoming the lead story on the evening news, be prepared. Before you head out on a hike, check the weather, take plenty of water, and make sure someone knows where you‟ll be and when you‟ll be back. Bring clothes to keep you warm whe n wet. Avoid cotton, which is easy to take in moisture(潮气).“To avoid getting lost, check often to make sure you‟re still on the trail(路线),” says John Dill, a search-and-rescue worker at Yosemite National Park in California. “The minute you think you migh t not be on the trail, stop.” If you‟re not alone, focusing on the needs of others can help you get rid of your own fears. Other keys to survival: staying observant and remembering to rest.The surest way to get out alive is to take basic precautions(预防措施), such as taking a set of survival equipment. It includes waterproof matches for starting a fire, a folding knife for cutting branches, and a plastic tarp(防水布) for making shelter.Generally, people who try to find their own way out get along worse than those who stay, says Richard N. Bradley, MD, of the American Red Cross. Find shelter before dark, and try tokeep dry. Stay visible so that anyone searching can see you. In a wide-open area, make a signal with colorful tools, make a big X out of rocks, or dig a long shallow hole.You can go several days without eating, so in most cases, you‟d better not search for food, since there are lots of poisonous plants in the wild, says Dr Bradley. You cannot survive without water, so if you run out of water, it‟s usu ally better to drink from a stream with suspect water than to go without.21. By saying “becoming the lead story on the evening news” in Para. 1, the author really means ______.A. you will be interviewed by the journalistB. you will become famous for your survival in a forestC. the news that you are lost will spread around quicklyD. your experience in the wild will be reported in the evening news22. According to the writer, how can you avoid getting lost when you are alone?A. Make sure you don‟t leav e the trail.B. Remember not to stop on the trail.C. Try to look for others‟ help.D. Overcome the fear of getting lost.23. According to the passage, you may get into trouble if you ______.A. try to find food to fill your stomach in the wildB. stay in the shelter before darkC. remain where you get lost and wait for helpD. drink water from the stream24. Why does the author suggest digging a long shallow hole in a wide-open area when you get lost?A. To find some water to drink.B. To store some food you‟ve brought along.C. To attract the rescuer‟s attention.D. To use it as a shelter.BMany New Zealand children are being studied for sleep disorders(紊乱) after overloading on technology before bedtime. Specialists say computers and televisions disturb sleep patterns and cause learning, concentration and growth problems.Dr Alex Bartle, director of the Sleep Well Clinic, said that different sorts of technology were keeping children awake. Computer games and social networking sites such as Bebo and Facebook were worse than TV for exciting young minds because they were more interactive(互动的). They should be switched off at least an hour before bedtime. “To fall asleep, you need to have a certain amount of calmness in the brain,” said Bartle. “being excited doesn‟t help those brainwaves settle.”Professor Philippe Gander, director of Masse y University‟s Sleep / Wake Research Centre, said poor sleep had been linked to learning, behavioral and growth problems.Bartle said parents should make sure that children were well-rested and not kept awake by the technology surrounding them. “They need to encourage kids to get out during the day. Watching TV or playing on computers as soon as they get home isn‟t good from a sleep point of view. Parents need to be strong enough to remove TVs or computers.”In Britain, National Health Service data show almost 3,000 under-11s were referred to specialists for problems such as sleeplessness and sleep-walking(梦游) in 2007, up 26 percent from 2002.While there are no figures in New Zealand, experts have no doubt that the number of children in need of help is on t he increase. “We have the same sorts of technology, the same lifestyles,” said Bartle.The Child Health Research Foundation in New Zealand has funded(资助) studies on sleep problems and is waiting for the results.25. What does “technology”mainly refer to a ccording to the passage?A. pianos and guitarsB. televisions and computersC. learning machinesD.MP3s and MP4s26. According to Dr Alex Bartle‟s opinion, we can learn that ______.A. Children should not watch TV or play online games in the eveningB. Watching TV does more harm to children than playing computer gamesC. Some parents fail to set a limit on the time their children spend on technologyD. About 3,000 New Zealand under-11s have sleep problems in 200727. Experts are sure that the number of New Zealand children with sleep problems is increasing because _____.A. New Zealand children play more online games than British childrenB. They have exact data from National Health ServiceC. New Zealand children are in the same situation as the British childrenD. They have exact data provided by hospitals28. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Children like computer games.B. Technology disturbs children‟s sleep.C. The ways of dealing with sleep disorders.D. New Zealand parents should prevent children from watching TV.CTo “sacrifice” means to give up something in exchange for something better. My husband and I decided to make a sacrifice and exchange city life and move to a seaside village with our children aged 9 and 3 years. We had a beautiful home in the city and plenty of money but little real safety because crime was on the increase every day. We never knew if we would all make it safely home at night. I hoped my children would be brought up in a peaceful and friendly environment.We were very happy in our new town, but life was very difficult economically. Income was based on the tourist seasons and jobs were few. Although many of the long- standing residents(居民) were well off in the town, it was a very competitive environment for newcomers. We had to adapt to the difficult new life over the past four years.Reading the newspapers from the big cities made us better believe that we had made the right choice. But it was not always easy to explain to the children why they could no longer have what they used to have.However, our little daughter proved to me she had the ability to think about problems in a reasonable way. The son of a visiting friend preferred riding in the back of our old little truck to his father‟s big car. Our little daughter called me and said, “Mom, please help me to explain toJames that he is wrong. He says that …Today, if you don‟t have money you are nothing.‟ I know that is not true. If you do have money you share it with your friends and if you don‟t have money and they do, they share it with you. That is what makes us all rich.” It made me realize that the sacrifice was well worth it.29. Why did the family move away from the city?A. They were tired of the city life.B. The city was not safe enough.C. Pollution in the city was serious.D. Life in the city was expensive.30. What was the worst to the author‟s family in their new town?A. They couldn‟t get used to the weather.B. It was hard for them to get a steady and satisfying income.C. Their neighbours were richer than them.D. They had few friends in the new environment.31. The author realized that their sacrifice was well worth it because _______.A. they had a beautiful home in the seaside villageB. they made a lot of money in the tourist seasonsC. their children could receive good educationD. their children could form a good value concept in the new environmentDSometimes children do not do what their parents tell them to do. When this happens, a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing. When this does not work, the parent usually punishes the child.There are many things that a parent can do. One thing that people have done is to spank (打屁股) the child. When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on their bottom. This is meant to show the child that they have done something wrong.One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child. His parents used a wooden spoon. When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his child’s leg. He never did that again.One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing. Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard. Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing.Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking. Some people think that their religion (宗教)tells them that spanking is okay. Some think that the law lets them do it. The courts (法院) say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave.Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child. Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing. Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried. Getting down to the child’s level and taking a more child-friendly approach (方法) can help as well.32.
