题目内容

Any car accident is frightening, but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water, with you trapped inside, is absolutely terrifying.   【小题1】  However, most deaths result from panic, without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water. By adopting a brace(支撑) position, acting decisively and getting out fast, you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.
Brace yourself for impact (撞击力). As soon as you're aware that you're going off the road and into a body of water, adopt a brace position. The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle, so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the "ten and two" position.
Undo your seatbelt.   【小题2】  Unbuckle the children, starting with the oldest first. Forget the cell phone call. Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call.
  【小题3】  Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window. A car's electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water, so try the method of opening it electronically first. Many people don't think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking.
Break the window. If you aren't able to open the window, or it only opens halfway, you'll need to break it with an object or your foot. It may feel counter-intuitive (有悖常理的) to let water into the car.   【小题4】
Escape when the car has equalized. If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced, you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival.   【小题5】  While there is still air in the car, take slow, deep breaths and focus on what you're doing.

A.Open the window as soon as you hit the water.
B.Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.
C.It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually.
D.Such accidents are particularly dangerous to the risk of drowning.
E.In conclusion, if you know what to do in the water, you will be safe.
F.This is the first thing to attend to, yet it often gets forgotten in the panic.
G.But the sooner the window is open, the sooner you can escape directly through it.

41   of his car, just as he cares for his health for a good life . Once he enters into the highway, he must    42   certain rules for his own safety. It can also be said that he must obey certain rules of society when living as a   43   adult. For example, on the highway, he is required to keep a   44   speed which can be compared with his continuous activities through his life. Neither driving nor living must be taken at too high a speed nor at too slow a speed. If he drives too 45 , the police will give him a ticket, just as he will be arrested when he breaks the law. Acting too conservatively, he will be called an out-of-date person  46   the others driving at the proper speed. When he wants to   47   lanes, he must give careful attention to every direction of his car . It is sometimes dangerous to change the way of life unless he can be sure of completion by doing so.

Finally, he must discover where he is now by   48   some signs appearing now and then. If he takes the wrong turning, he must return to the right path as soon as he can. But he may   49 lose time and energy both on the road and in life.

On the whole, driving on a highway and living one’s life are both hard work. But if he is careful and serious enough, they will provide him much pleasure.

 

I live in the land of Disney, Hollywood and year - round sun.You may think People , such an attractive, fun - filled place are happier than others.If so you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.

Many intelligent people still think fun equals happiness.The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common.Fun is what we experience during an act.Happiness is what we experience after an act.It is a deep, long-lasting emotion.

Going to an amusement park or a ball game, watching a movie or television are fun activities that help us relax, temporally forget our problems and maybe even laugh.But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.

I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun.They have constant access to exciting parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells "happiness" But in memoir(回忆录) after memoir, they expose Ac unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages and loneliness.

Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying.If he is honest, he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment.For commitment is in fact quite painful.The single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitement.Man-iage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.

Similarly, couples that choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful happiness.They can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they want.Couples with babies are lucky to get a whole night' s sleep.I don't know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children.

Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations we can ever come to.It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can truly increase our happiness.It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless.And it frees us from envy: we now understand that all those rich and famous people we were so sure are happy because they are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.

1.What is the passage mainly about?

A.Fun and happiness.

B.Success and satisfaction.

C.Marriage and commitment.

D.Entertainment and responsibility.

2.The author probably agrees that ____.

A.fun creates long - lasting satisfaction

B.long - standing fun may lead to happiness

C.fun is short-lived while happiness is long-lasting

D.fun provides enjoyment while pain leads to happiness

3.What does the author think of marriage?

A.It ends in pain.

B.It means commitment.

C.It affords greater fun.

D.It leads to raising children.

4.If one gets the real meaning of happiness, he ____.

A.will start a business          B  won' t place too much value on money

C.will seek for freedom           D.won't devote himself to his family
