Passage 4 ( 2015江蘇泰州靖江，C)

They hold mobile phones in hands all day long,send dozens of messages each day,and even text while driving or walking. However,texting has its disadvantage.Junk messages may come into your mobile phone box now and then. When your phone box gets too lull,you can't receive any more messages. You may therefore miss some important information.

    What's more,if you don't do texting properly,for example,texting while driving or walking,it can be dangerous.lt can cause in?juries and even death.lt was reported that about 6 ,000 people were killed and half a million were injured for this reason each year.

When people are texting,they don^ notice other people or things around them.To reduce traffic accidents,all drivers of the UN are now not allowed to text while driving. About 32 countries have passed laws restricting (限制) the use of mobile phones while driving.

Passage 1 ( 2015 河北) 

    Many people believe that yellowing and wetness are the greatest enemy of stamps. In fact,stamps are afraid of not only wetness,but also light and dirty things.People protect their stamps in several different ways.

    To protect stamps,we should never touch the stamps with our hands.This avoids moving dirty things onto them.Stamp tweezers (懾 子) should be used in all conditions.

    Stamps are printed things.The colour will slowly disappear if the stamps are put in the light for a long time. So we should not put stamps in the light for long.Direct sunlight must be avoided as well.

    Wetness is an important problem for stamps.Some collectors will put stamps in separate plastic (塑料) bags. However,it is possible that some stamps have taken in some water from the air before they are put into the plastic bags.Stamps become yellow easily and rapidly after they take in wet air.To protect the stamps,some people also put the stamps into a special room which has a machine to keep the air cool and dry.However,not many people can afford that.

    To keep stamps,stamp collectors usually put them under plastic covers.lt is a common and simple way.This helps because the plastic cover keeps the stamps off the wet air. It also stops the fingers from touching the stamps.

    Some collectors prefer to store stamps inside a plastic box with desiccants (干燥劑) .However,we should take care not to let the stamps touch the desiccants.On top of that,don't take your stamps out on a wet day.

  1. One way to protect stamps is that we should never touch them  .

Passage 5 (2015江蘇宿遷泗洪適應(yīng)性考試，六)

閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容填寫表格，每空限填一詞。

    Mistakes are great teachers.Success comes to you if you are willing to risk making mistakes.You may achieve your goals and wishes,and you can also learn from those mistakes. And in order to learn from mistakes,you must be willing to pay for them.

    Mistakes can be of great value,but when you try to get others to pay for your mistakes,then you will lose the chance to learn from them.When something goes wrong,it’s usually very easy to find someone else^ mistakes,but that is not useful.

    Much of the value of mistakes comes from the fact that they need a cost that must be paid.The person who learns the most from a mistake is the one who pays the price for that mistake.

    When you make a mistake,what you shouldn’t do is to run away from it.You need to accept it because you can learn a lot from it.The mistake has been made,so make the most of it. Pay the price,learn the lesson,and you will grow much stronger.

    After you make a mistake,don5t look back at it long. Remember the reason for it,and then look forward.Mistakes are lessons of wisdom.The past cannot be changed.The present is still in your power. Make full use of your mistakes to achieve your goals and wishes.
