The timer is running. These people have 60 minutes to escape (逃脫) from a room they paid to be locked inside.
It is a game with clues (線索) that are spread in the room. And there is no starting point. You start wherever you feel like. It is up to you to put the clues together in order to find the key to get out.
A popular room offered by Timothy Smith in Washington D.C. is designed to mimic (模仿) the Oval Office in the White House. It is built like the office of the American president. The fun part of Escape the Oval Office is that anything here could be a clue to solving the puzzle. An old typewriter from the 1930s. Or the small table in the corner. Or the map of Washington D.C. on the wall. And then there are hidden messages that can only be seen under a black light.
Sometimes, the telephone rings. “Would you guys like a clue?” The boss controls the game progress on a camera and calls to offer hints (提示) when needed.
Teams can be made up of classmates, families, tourists, or a group of six friends and two strangers who just meet before the game starts.
It's said that there are more than 800 Escape Room adventures in Washington D.C.. Each experience has different themes and stories. The rules for playing are similar, and solving the puzzle needs social, physical abilities and quick, creative thinking.
It was a little stressful. Some of the clues seemed really complex (復(fù)雜的). But it was a lot of fun, and the players had no idea what to expect.

【解析】短文介紹了逃離仿真白宮橢圓形辦公室的密室探險(xiǎn)游戲，像這樣密室逃脫探險(xiǎn)場(chǎng)所美國各地現(xiàn)有大約800個(gè)。它是由逃脫吧老板蒂莫西·史密斯開辦的，解開謎團(tuán)需要社交參與和身體力行，以及敏捷的創(chuàng)意思維，更需要團(tuán)隊(duì)合作精神，同時(shí)還能給人帶來成功的喜悅。
（1）B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第三段中的句子“A popular room offered by Timothy Smith in Washington D.C. is designed to mimic (模仿) the Oval Office in the White House.” 探險(xiǎn)游戲逃離白宮橢圓形辦公室這個(gè)受歡迎的房間在美國的華盛頓，答案為B。
（2）A詞義猜測(cè)題。上文介紹逃離密室探險(xiǎn)游戲具有極強(qiáng)的挑戰(zhàn)性，他們有60分鐘的逃離時(shí)間，根據(jù)現(xiàn)場(chǎng)探測(cè)，通過自己的智慧去搜尋有用線索，解開謎團(tuán)。因此A答案最符合題意。
（3）D細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)短文最后一句話“However, like most team sports, this game is really all about being a good teammate and having a good time.”可知，成功逃離需要團(tuán)隊(duì)通力合作，故答案D正確。

“I saw a person I did not know with his shoes on, which is not allowed in my apartment (公寓). I watched it on the video. I felt quite surprised. I hurried back home as fast as possible and called the police on the way. Thanks to the smart camera, the criminal was caught soon,” said Damien.

【題目】閱讀理解
“Beauty is only skin deep.” This expression means that beauty is only a temporary and surface（暫時(shí)而表面的） quality. And some beauty products can cause lasting harm that goes far below the surface of the skin. But people, especially women, will take a lot of risks for beauty.
In the United States, many people use sunlight and non-natural light to darken their skin. Health experts are against it, because it may lead to skin cancer.
In the African country of Senegal, some women take health risks trying to do just the opposite. They use products that lighten the skin. The World Health Organization says that 25 percent of Senegalese women use skin-lightening products. These products can have some chemicals such as mercury, hydroquinone and sodium hydroxide (汞、對(duì)苯二酚和氫氧化鈉). These are dangerous ingredients (成份) that can cause cancer and possibly other physical harm to the skin. They can even burn the eyes and skin.
Women in Senegal say they lighten their skin for the same reasons: women all over the world make changes to their looks. They say they want to look beautiful, to find a husband, or to stand out in a crowd. But some products are so strong. THEY must be mixed with others before they are used.
A woman filmmaker Khardiata Sall from Senegal made a movie “This Color That Worries Me”. It's about the subject of skin lightening. “I used the most scary pictures so that women would clearly see the dangers. It is hard to understand why a woman would tell herself that dark skin is not beautiful. It is in their heads. They want to please a man, to be loved. Or they want to please the society, to succeed.” Ms. Sall says the government needs to better control the market and the sale of skin lightening products. But she adds education is the best way to tell people against using them.
（1）According to the passage, Khardiata Sall ___________.
A.is a white woman
B.works as an actor
C.is against skin-lightening
D.wants to be white
（2）The word “THEY” in the fourth paragraph means ____________.
A.mercury, hydroquinone and sodium hydroxide
B.women in Senegal
C.all skin-lightening products
D.some strong skin-lightening products
（3）According to the passage, if you are a women in Senegal, you may go out of your way to change your skin color because ___________.
A.you want to please your parents
B.you want to make changes to your hobbies
C.you want to look better than men
D.you want to find a good job
（4）If you put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?( ①=Para. (自然段)1 ②=Para. 2 ③=Para.3 ④=Para.4 ⑤=Para.5 )
A.①;②;③④⑤
B.①;②③;④⑤

"I found it," said Fred, "and have felt like a thief ever since. Here, take it. I've got to run. "

"Hold on!" said the doctor. "I've got a new one, and you are quite welcome to this."
