【5】 A

【解析】本文是一篇說明文，告訴你遇到火災時該怎樣做。

【1】B根據(jù)上句：一聽到你的煙霧探測器響起，看到火災，盡可能安全地離開你的家。故此時應該是馬上離開現(xiàn)場，不要再顧及手機、貴重物品和其他重要財產(chǎn)。故選B。

【2】C根據(jù)上句：要避開煙霧。空格下句：如果你必須走過或穿過濃煙彌漫的房間，覆蓋住你的鼻子和嘴。故C項Smoke inhalation causes people to become unconscious.（煙霧吸入會使人失去知覺。）串聯(lián)上下文，符合語境。

【3】F根據(jù)下文：如果你的衣服起火，立即停止你在做的事，扔到地上，滾過去，直到你把火撲滅。此空是段首，故F項Stop, drop, and roll if your clothes catch fire.（如果你的衣服著火了，就停下來，扔掉，滾動。）符合本段內容。

【4】G根據(jù)下句：關閉您的門，并用布或膠帶封住所有周圍的通風口和裂縫，把煙擋在外面。故此空的意思應該是“如果你不能從你家里逃離，不要驚慌”。故選G。

【5】A根據(jù)本段首句：從第二層窗口尋求幫助。再根據(jù)下句：當?shù)谝环磻叩竭_那里時，您可以拿床單或其他東西——白色的最好，把它掛在窗外表示你需要幫助。故A項If you are trapped in your second story room, get to an area where people can find you.（如果你被困在二樓，去一個人們可以發(fā)現(xiàn)你的區(qū)域。）符合語境。

【題目】Digital technology-email and smart phones especially-have vastly improved workers’ ability to be productive outside of a traditional office. Even so, most white-collar work still happens in an office. One reason is that, according to findings of a new survey of office workers conducted by Wakefield Research for the IT company Citrix, most bosses arc doubtful about remote working. Half of the workers say their boss doesn’t accept it, and only 35 percent say it’s tolerated.

Skeptical bosses will likely have their doubts reinforced (加深) by the same survey, which shows that 43 percent of workers say they’ve watched TV or a movie while “working” remotely, while 35 percent have done housework, and 28 percent have cooked dinner.

It is true, however, that working at home makes people much more efficient (高效的), because it allows workers to take care of annoying housework while still getting their jobs done. It’s much faster, for example, to shop for groceries at a quarter to three than to stand in line during the after-work rush.

The fact that such practices remain officially unaccepted reflects how far we haven’t come as a society from the days when we expected every full-time worker to be supported by a full-time homemaker.

More broadly the Wakefield survey suggests that employers may be missing a low-cost way to give workers something of value. Sixty-four percent of those survey participants who haven’t worked remotely would rather give up some bonus in order to get even one day a week working from home. Under such circumstances, smart firms need to find ways to let their employees have enough flexibility (靈活性) to manage their time efficiently.

【1】Why do some employers hesitate to allow remote working?

A. They have little trust in modem technology.

B. They want to stick to their routine practice.

C. They fear losing control of their workers.

D. They are used to face-to-face communication.

【2】What seems to be most workers’ attitude toward remote working?

A. Favorable. B. Doubtful.

C. Reserved. D. Disapproving.

【3】What does the author suggest smart firms do?

A. Shorten their office hours. B. Give employees a pay raise.

C. Reduce their staffs workload. D. Adopt flexible work patterns.

【題目】When someone has been bitten by a snake, try to find out if the snake is poisonous or harmless. Their bite marks are usually different. The bite of most of most poisonous snake leaves marks of two fangs（毒牙). If the bit of a snake leaves only two rows of teeth marks, but no fang marks, it is less likely that the snake is poisonous.

People often believe that certain harmless snakes are poisonous. Try to find out which of the snakes in your ares are truly poisonous and which are not. Please do not kill non-poisonous snakes, because they do no harm. On the contrary, they kill mice and other pests that do lots of damage. Some even kill poisonous snakes.

Here is some treatment for poisonous snakebite:

*Stay quiet: don’t move the bitten part. The more it’s moved, the faster the poison will spread through the body. If the bite is on the foot, the person should not walk at all. Send for medical hep.

*Remove jewellery because swelling can spread rapidly.

*Wrap the bitten are with a wide elastic bandage or clean cloth to slow the spread of poison. Keeping the arm or leg very still, wrap it tightly, but not so tight that it stops the pulse（脈搏）at the wrist or on top of the foot. If you cannot feel the pulse, loosen the bandage a little.

*Wind the bandage over the hand or foot, and up the whole arm or leg. Make sure you can still feel the pulse.

*Carry the person, on a stretcher（擔架）if possible, to the nearest health center. If you can also take the snake, because different snakes may require different antivenoms（抗毒血清）.

*Poisonous snakebite is dangerous. Send for medical help----but always do the things explained above at once. Some treatments, such as cutting the skin around the bite and sucking the venom out of the bite, can cause infection. And remember: Never drink alcohol after snakebite. It makes things worse!

【1】What is the purpose of paragraph 2?

A. To introduce us to different kinds of snakes.

B. To tell us how to recognize poisonous snakes.

C. To advice treating snakes differently.

D. To show how to protect ourselves from snakes.

【2】If a hand is bitten, we should wind the bandage over the whole arm to _____?

A. reduce the pulse.

B. avoid infection.

C. prevent the blood from flowing.

D. 3D printing plays the most important role in daily life.

【3】Which of the following first aids may cause infection..

A. Removing the venom with the mouth.

B. Wrap the elastic bandage tightly.

C. Drinking some water after a snakebite.

【題目】Jack was born without eyes. He’s very lucky with his timing. He grew up having other kittens to play and socialize with, and was used to people from the moment he was born since there are always kids hanging around the barn. He was a favorite amongst the students at the barn. However, when it came time to find the kittens homes, no one knew where Jack would end up. That’s when I got an e-mail from my friend. All she asked was “Do you still want one of the kittens? There’s one here with no eyes and no one can take him.” Without thinking I told her that I did want the kitten.

When we first brought him home Jack stayed mostly in my room. He walked cautiously around, sniffing everything. After about a day he had no issues running around, jumping onto my bed and climbing on everything. He went through a time where he could climb the stairs, but couldn’t get down. He would sit at the top and cry until someone came and got him. Every now and then when he gets disoriented he’ll stop and cry. But we just call his name and talk to him and it isn’t long before he finds his way back to us.

Also, a few weeks after getting Jack, we got a new barn cat named Bear. I always take Jack outside at that time for some fresh air and exercise. He loves to run (at top speed!) around the back yard and gardens. Bear and Jack have become best friends. It doesn’t matter that he can’t see, Jack always knows when Bear is around. He’ll run across the yard straight to Bear and wrap his front legs around his neck in a big hug. They chase each other around and wrestle, and when they’re tired they’ll lie down in the grass together.

Jack is truly an inspiration. I’ve owned a lot of kittens in my life, but Jack is the happiest, most playful of them all. He doesn’t feel sorry for himself. Heck, for all he knows, all cats are just like him. People who know Jack don’t feel sorry for him. They cherish him for the treasure that he is. I have talked to a few people who haven’t met him personally who tend to pity him, but they just don’t understand. Jack doesn’t need pity. I think Jean (who has Gumbo the eyeless ginger) said it best when she told me that cats don’t have disabilities, they have adaptabilities.

【1】According to the first paragraph, Jack __________.

A. got seriously disabled after birth

B. had a good time in the place where he was born

C. ended up wandering in the street at first

D. grew up lonely and sad

【2】When Jack first came to the authors house, he __________.

A. would cry when he felt lonely

B. was very happy and played wildly in the room

C. had difficulty getting down the stairs

D. always needed someone to guide him

【3】Which of the following has a similar meaning to the underlined word “disoriented”?

A. Hurt. B. Caught.

C. Lost. D. Broken.

【4】What can we conclude from the last paragraph?

A. Jack needs people’s pity.

B. All disabled cats have strong adaptabilities.

C. People always feel sad for Jack.

D. Jack’s story has inspired people.
