题目内容

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Any car accident is frightening, but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water, with you trapped inside, is absolutely terrifying. 【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. 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.

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 counterintuitive(有悖常理的) to let water into the car. 4

Escape when the car has equalized. If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filld with water and it has become balanced,you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival. 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.

【题目】If you wish to become a better reader, here are four important things to remember about reading rate:

Knowing why you are reading or what you are reading to find out will often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly.

Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making or doing something, arithmetic(算术) problems, science and history books, which are full of important information. You must read such things slowly to remember each important step and understand each important ideas.

Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories meant for enjoyment, news letters from friends, pieces of news from local, or home-town, papers, telling what is happening to friends and neighbors.

In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go along. You will need to read certain pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come to important ideas which must be remembered.

【1】 The underlined word "rate" in the first sentence means _______.

A. fast B. slow C. speed D. skill

【2】Which should be read slowly according to the passage?

A. Stories for enjoyment

B. Arithmetic problems

C. Letters from friends

D. News from hometown newspapers

【题目】When you tidy your messy bedroom, it gets a lot easier to find things. Dreams may work the same way for a messy brain, helping you learn by organizing memories and ideas.

To test how much dreams can help learning, Robert Stickgold had some students play a shape-fitting game called Tetris (饿罗斯方块) for a few hours and then go to sleep. Soon they were dreaming of falling Tetris shapes. Interestingly, the worst Tetris players had the most Tetris dreams and improved their game the most. Similar tests have shown the same results for all kinds of skills.

As we dream, many important tasks are getting done. The brain decides what to keep and what to forget. It is connecting new experiences to older learning. In fact, the brain is learning all night long.

Another important task of dreams may be to help us deal with emotions(情绪). At night, emotions are in the driver's seat. People who have had an upsetting experience often dream about it afterward. Often the dream event changes somehow--another way the brain tries to make the memory less upset. So if your best friend moves away, you might dream that you're the one who's moving. In fact, dreams have a proven power to improve mood, and people who dream about what's bothering them usually feel better sooner than those who don't.

Everybody dreams for a couple of hours every night--in the course of your life, you'll spend about 25 years asleep and 6 years dreaming. There's probably no single answer to the question why we dream, but there doesn't have to be. One dream might help you remember your math facts, while another might lead to a new invention, or give you a fun, crazy story to tell your friends. It's all in a night's work for our busy, mysterious brains.

【1】Robert Stickgold's test shows that________.

A. games are useful for memory

B. tasks can only be settled through dreams

C. players stop learning in dreams

D. dreams can help improve skills

【2】We can learn from Paragraph 4 that_______ .

A. dreams can get rid of sufferings

B. only drivers can deal with emotions

C. one may be less upset after a dream

D. dreams can copy what one experienced

【3】Which of the following does the author probably agree with?

A. Dreaming does harm to one's mood.

B. Dreaming affects the quality of sleep.

C. It's not so important to know the cause of dreaming.

D. It's hard to find out the secrets of dreaming.

【4】What does the text focus on?

A. Dreams and memories. B. The patterns of dreams.

C. Dreams and emotions. D. The benefits of dreams.
