【題目】Thomas Edison received a patent(專利) for his kinetoscope(電影放映機) on August31, 1887. It was a machine for viewing moving pictures. Edison had hoped to combine his no invention with the phonograph(留聲機), which he had invented 10 years earlier. He thought that people would like to watch moving pictures that went along with the sound. He was not able to make them work together. The kinetoscope, however, was a popular attraction by itself. A person looked through small holes in a box-like machine and saw pictures in action. One of the first films made showed a man sneezing.

A problem with this invention was that only one person could view the moving pictures at a time. By 1891, Edison had invented a projector that showed the film on a screen. Many people could watch together.

In 1893, Edison built a motion-picture studio. He made over 300 silent films. Most of them were short. That was because the pictures flashed, or shook a lot. It was hard for people to watch more than 10 minutes at a time.

The first films were mostly of real events. They would show famous people walking somewhere, cars on a street, burning houses, and other news stories. Then comedies and short dramas were made.

Edison’s movie studio closed in 1918. By then other companies were also making films. Better cameras were made. Sound was added. Then color came along. Today, movies are among the most popular forms of entertainment.

1What do we know about the first kinetoscope?

A. It was a machine to play pictures with sound.

B. It was invented 10 years earlier than phonograph.

C. Many people were able to see films together with it.

D. Only one person could see moving pictures with it at a time.

2What does the underlined word “projector” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. A film player.

B. An electric lamp.

C. A programme.

D. A talking machine.

3Why were most of the films very short at first?

A. People didn't like long films.

B. The film stories were really short.

C. The film pictures were not very steady.

D. People could only watch a short time at a time.

4What does the text mainly tell us?

A. The trouble in making films.

B. The efforts of Edison in the development of films.

C. Why Edison invented the phonograph.

D. How Edison improved the kinetoscope.

【題目】It is interesting to see that the force of only 6 or 7 people pushing in the same direction can cause up to 1,000 pounds of force-enough to break brick walls. During a deadly stampede(逃奔), people can even die standing up. People die when pressure is put to their bodies in a front to back direction, causing them not to be able to breathe.

If you are in a crowd, the first and most important thing is to make yourself familiar with your surroundings and find different exits. No matter where you are, make sure you always know how to get out.

Make yourself aware of the type of the ground you are standing on, and know that in a crowd of moving people wet ground can cause you to fall.

When in danger, a few seconds can make a difference, giving you the possibility of making use of your escaping route. Always stay closer to the escape route. If you find yourself in the middle of a moving crowd, do not fight against the pressure, do not stand still or sit down, because you can easily get trampled(踩踏). Instead, move in the same direction of the crowd; make use of any space that may open up to move sideways to the crowd movement where the flow is weaker.

Keep your hands up by your chest, like a boxer-it gives you movement and protects your chest. If you fall, get up quickly. If you can’t get up because you are injured, get someone to pull you up. If you have kids, lift them up.

If you fall and cannot get up, keep moving in the same direction of the crowd, or if that is not possible, then cover your head with your arms; do not lie on your stomach or back.

1In a stampede people may die standing up mainly because_______.

A. they can’t breathe freely B. they push in the same direction

C. they are not able to get up D. they aren’t familiar with the surroundings

2What does the word deadly underlined in the first paragraph probably mean?

A. harmful. B. shocking.

C. deathly D. hateful.

3When in danger, to make a difference, you should______.

A. fight against the pressure B. stand still where you are

C. sit down covering your head D. move along the escape route.

4In the passage the write mainly wants to tell us _______.

A. how to stay far away from a crowd B. what to do when you are in a crowd

C. where to go when you are in danger D. how to get along with a big crowd
