However, many of us s till think, “Natural disasters won’t happen around me!” In fact, natural disasters could happen around anyone. Several kinds of disasters may happen in most cities. It’s important to know what to do before, during and after a disaster.Robert Richardson is a doctor of first aid. He shares some advice on getting prepared for natural disasters.The first thing to do is to do some research. Try to learn what kind of disasters once hit your city. Find out how people saved themselves after those disasters.Another key point is to get ready for the basic needs. That means preparing enough water and food at home. When a natural disaster hits, you may have to stay inside your house for days!Richardson also suggests developing an escape(逃生) plan. When a disaster happens, staying inside can be dangerous sometimes. You must think about where to go and how to get there before disasters.21.

Is it better to use bicycles or to drive cars in the city?Matthew 2019-1-13 20:22I believe it is better to use a bicycle. First, bicycles are safer. A bike cannot run too fast. Secondly, cars are bad for the environment(环境). They produce a lot of harmful gases(气体). People are building more and more roads. There will be fewer homes for wild animals.Samuel 2019-1-13 20:25I don’t agree with Matthew though bicycles are safer. Imagine you have a well-paid job and you choose to ride a bicycle to work. Your nice clothes would become not so clean and your hair would look terrible. You would not be able to meet your customers.Rebecca 2019-1-13 20:30Today, we should ride a bicycle because there are many problems with cars. First, driving a car is bad for the environment. Secondly, there are a lot of traffic jams. Besides, bicycles are much cheaper than cars!Olivia 2019-1-13 20:32I like a bicycle better. Riding a bicycle to and from school keeps me fit. I am now running a club to help stop pollution. More and more students in my school are joining us. Get out of your car and get on a bicycle!24.

It was snowing and we could n’t see more than two meters in front of us. Luckily we met some more experienced walkers. We followed them and returned safely. Meeting other walkers on quite a cold January day wasn’t really so surprising, because walking is the UK’s most popular sport.Many people believe that the popular walking brought about 20 special long paths(小路) for walking in Britain. The longest is the Southwest Coast path(1014km). The most exciting one is the West Highland Way in Scotland because it passes through mountain area s. It ends at the bottom of Ben Nevis, Britain’s highest mountain.There are also a few basic rules(规则) you should follow when you are walking on the paths. Don’t drop litter, keep your dogs around you if there are farm animals in the area, and always stay on the path.Remember that British weather can change very quickly, especially in the north and west of the country. If you are in Wales, Scotland or the north of England, you would need to carry enough food and water with you. It is also important to wear warm and thick clothes. Carry a map and compass so that you won’t get lost. These paths are the best way to enjoy Britain’s wonderful countryside.28. The writer thinks it’s _______ to meet other walkers in cold weather in Britain.A. strangeB. terribleC. commonD. boring29. The most exciting path for walking in Britain is _______.A.

Long Paths for WalkingC. British CountrysideD. Useful Rules for Walking阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求).DA new way to keep fit while doing a good thing for someone is popular across the UK.GoodGym is a running group free for anyone to join.

So it is not surprising that the World Wide Fund for Nature 2 the giant panda as its symbol. The WWF tells people about animals that they are in danger and raises money 3 them. 【】The giant panda only lives in the wild in China. 4 the early 1980s,there 5 only 1, 000 left in the wild. The main reason why pandas are endangered is that the area where pandas can live has become smaller.The WWF works to help giant pandas in the wild in many ways. One of the ways that help them is to increase the size of 6 reserves(保护区). Some reserves need to be joined by 7 bamboo between them to make “hallways”.

A group of Americans who taught English in other countries recently discussed their experiences. They decided that miscommunications were always possible, even over something as simple as“yes”and“no”.On her first day in Micronesia, an island in the Pacific, Lisa thought people weren’t paying any attention to her. The day was hot. She went into a store and asked, “Do you have cold drinks? ”The woman there didn’t say anything. Lisa repeated the question. Still the woman said nothing. She later learned that the woman had answered her: She had raised her eyebrows(眉毛), which in Micronesia means“yes”.Jan remembered an experience she had in Bulgaria, a country in Europe. She went to a restaurant that was known for its cabbage. She asked the waiter, “Do you have cabbage today? ”He nodded his head. Jan waited, but the cabbage never came. In that country, a nod means“no”. 【】Tom had a similar problem when he arrived in India. After explaining something in class, he asked his students if they understood. They answered with many different nods and shakes of the head. He thought some people had not understood, so he explained again. When he asked again, they didthe same thing. He soon found out that his students did understand. In India, people nod and shake their heads in different ways depending on where they come from.
