Beldon and Canfield are two seashore towns, not far apart．Both towns have many hotels, and in summer the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other tourists．

Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon．The next day, this news appeared on page two of the town’s newspaper．The Beldon Post:

FIRE AT SEABREEZE

Late last night firemen hurried to the Seabreeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom．The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire．We say again to all our visitors： “Please don’t smoke cigarettes in bed．” This was Beldon’s first hotel fire for five years．

    The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one：

    ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRE

Last night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Seabreeze Hotel．An angry holiday-maker said, “An electric lamp probably started the fire．The bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotels．When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp．” We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in Canfield．

What are the facts, then? It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident．There was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel last August: that is one fact．Do we know anything else? Yes, we know that firemen went to the hotel．

    Now what do you think of the rest of the “news” ?

    e．There has never been a fire in Canfield．

    A．b and c        B．a and d        C．c and e        D．a and c

3.The Canfield Times used the headline like this in order to make its readers think _______．

School violence is in the headlines again after recent shootings at schools in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Colorado. After hearing the news, it’s natural for students — no matter how old they are or where they go to school — to worry about whether this type of incident may someday happen to them.

So how safe are schools? It’s actually safer to be in a school than in a car. Twice as many 15-to-19-year-olds die in car accidents than in shootings (and that’s all shootings, not just the ones that happen in schools). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, less than 1% of all homicides (杀人罪) among school-age children happen on school grounds or on the way to and from school. So the vast majority of students will never experience violence at school.

However, some schools have re-evaluated their safety needs in response to the concerns of families and communities. Some now require that guests check in at the office or have more guards on duty. Some schools have fixed metal detectors. Another thing that helps make schools safer is greater awareness of problems like bullying and discrimination. Many schools have practiced programs to fight these problems and to help teachers and administrators know more about protecting students from this type of violence.

The cause of school violence isn’t easy to understand. There is no single reason why students become violent. Some are just copying behavior they’ve seen at home, in the streets, or in video games, movies, or television. There’s one thing experts do agree on, though: Having access to guns or other weapons makes it easier for some people to lash out against the things or people they don’t like.

1.Which of the following statements can prove that schools are safe?

A．About 99% of 15- to-19-year-olds are safe at school.

B．Fewer students have died in car accidents than in shootings.

C．Students shot to death at school are half of all students.

D．Fatal shootings of students are less than 1% of all homicides.

2. After schools have re-evaluated their safety needs, ________.

A．families will be more concerned about schools

B．communities will be responsible for schools

C．teachers will pay more attention to shootings

D．administrators will arrange to have more guards on duty

3.From the last paragraph we can conclude that ______.

A．experts have found no reason for school violence

B．students with weapons are easily upset about things

C．school violence could be copied from violence in society

D．no single reason makes students violent

4.We could probably see this passage in ______.

A．an analysis report

B．a realistic novel

C．a case investigation

D．a news journal

 

 Safety in school has been of great concern (关注) because of recent reports about accidents _____ students got injured or killed at school.
