　　Sad stories are not very nice to read about, but if we think and talk about them, we may be able to prevent more accidents．

　　How can fire or hot things be a danger in the house？Matches, of course, are always dangerous in the hands of young children．A little fire on waste land can easily get out of control．A wind comes, sparks(火花)are blown on to the roof of a house, and the whole building may be burnt to the ground before you can even call the fire brigade．Kerosene(煤油)lamps, too, can be very dangerous．Quite recently there was a bad accident in a village house．The mosquito-net(蚊帐)over a baby’s bed was blown against a lamp and caught fire．The bed-clothes and even the clothes of the baby were burnt before the fire was discovered．

　　Long grass rubbish round a house can also lead to a big fire, as most people know．However, not everybody is careful with such things as paper bags and toys; these will burn up in a flash if you hold them near a fire．

　　Young children often reach up to a table to take a bottle down by its handle．If the bottle or pot is full of boiling water, you can guess what will happen．Similarly, when a baby’s bath is prepared, cold water should be put in first．If any hot water has to be used, this should be put into the bath after the cold water and not before it．

　　Many fireworks(烟花)can lead to blindness or other injuries, especially those which are pushed into bamboo sticks．Wooden spears or swords should be used only by children with sense enough not to injure other people．

　　Very young children often have to be watched carefully．They put everything they find into their mouths to see whether it can be eaten, or sucked! Medicines have to be put out of their reach．A pill which might be harmless for an adult can sometimes kill a baby．Older children have to be careful when drinking from a bottle．Some of them walk about as they drink．Tip up the bottle to get the last drop out, then fall over something on the ground．If they are unlucky, they fall in such a way that the broken glass makes a horrible wound in the face or neck．

　　This is not a complete list of the dangers in and near a house, but it is enough to remind you to be careful．

(1)

第三部分阅读理解（共20小题。每小题2分，满分40分）

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Drying food is a simple, low-cost way to keep food safe for eating. Drying removes water that small organisms use to break down food into other substances. Some of these substances may be poisonous to humans.

A device that uses the sun is a good way to dry food. There are several kinds of solar dryers. The easiest to build is called the direct dryer. The sun shines directly on the food being dried. The direct dryer is a box with holes in it so that air can enter and leave the box. It has a cover made of clear glass or plastic. When the sun shines into the box, heat is produced. The heat is trapped inside the box and cannot escape back through the cover. The heat dries the food.

The solar dryer works better if the sides of the box are black. This is because dark colors hold heat while light colors reflect it. One way to make the sides black is to use wood that has been blackened by fire.

If you use black paint instead, be sure the paint contains no lead. Lead is poisonous to people, especially children.

The box can be made of almost any material such as wood, concrete or sheet metal. The dryer should be two meters long, one meter wide and twenty-three to thirty centimeters deep. The sides and bottom should have additional material, called insulation, to keep the heat from escaping.

The surface on which the food is placed should permit air to enter from below and pass through to the food. A surface made of wires with small square openings works very well. You should use wire with the largest openings or squares that do not allow the food to fall through. Air that comes in from below the wire surface will also carry away water evaporated from the food as it dries.

A direct dryer will dry most vegetables in two-and-one-half to four hours at temperatures from forty-three to sixty-three degrees Celsius. Fruits take longer, from four to six hours at the same temperatures.

51.Solar food drying is fast, safe and low-cost. It is also healthy because nutrients such as vitamin C are kept in the food. Solar dried food also tastes and looks good.

51.In which way will the food be fried quickly?

A.Let the sun shine directly on the food.

B.Make the sides of the box black.

C.Make wood be the sides of the box.

D.The box must be made of blackened wood.

52.What does the underlined word “evaporate” in the 6th paragraph mean?

A. sink into B. change into gas or steam C. flow away D. flow into

53.According to the text., which of the following statements is true?

A.Water in the food may cause poisonous substances.

B.The sun shines into the box and be trapped.

C.Dark colours hold heat better than light colours.

D.It takes longer for vegetable to be fried.

54.What’s the text mainly about?

A.the way to dry food.

B.Solar Food Dryers

C.The device that uses the sun

D.The way to keep food safe.
