Pantomime is a special kind of Christmas show for children.It is loved by people and also allows the audience(觀眾)to join in."Pantomime"was the name of the Roman actor who performed shows without speaking----this is where the English word"mime"comes from.
A Pantomime is always based on a well-known children's story.But there are always certain types of characters in the show and certain situations and events.For example,a Pantomime must always include a hero,known as the"principle boy"and this principle boy is always played by a pretty girl wearing a short costume.Then there is the comic older woman,known as the"dame"who is played by a man.There is always a group of men and women who sing and dance and often there is a Pantomime horse.The horse is played by two men who form the"front"and"back"ends inside a"horse"costume.It is funny and it usually kicks the dame when she isn't looking.
Members of the audience have to shout a warning to one of the characters and argue with the character (usually the dame) when she does not believe them.When she shouts,"Oh no,it isn't,"the audience always responds with"Oh yes,it is!"The audience also learns and sings a simple song and a few children are sometimes invited to help one of the characters during the show.

5.Check out our tsunami(海嘯) facts and learn some interesting information related to these great walls of water that can cause so much destruction.Find out what causes tsunamis and read about some notable recent examples of tsunamis that have occurred around the globe.
Tsunamis are huge waves of water that are usually caused by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.
 As a tsunami approaches the shore,water may move back from the coast.If it is shallow enough,the water may be pulled back hundreds of meters.If you are in the area,observing this is a good indication that a tsunami is on the way.
Regions in tsunami danger zones often have warning systems in place to give people as much time to evacuate(撤離)as possible.
When tsunamis hit shallow water (often near the coast),they slow down but increase in height.
An earthquake in the Indian Ocean off Indonesia in December 2004 caused a tsunami that killed over 200,000 people in 14 countries.
In March 2011,the Tohoku earthquake off the eastern coast of Japan caused a tsunami that was a major factor in the death of over 15,000 people.
The tsunami waves created by the Tohoku earthquake reached heights of over 40 meters(131feet)in some areas,wiping out coastal towns and causing a number of nuclear accidents.
The Japanese word"tsunami"literally means"harbour wave".
Tsunamis are sometimes referred to as tidal(潮水的)waves but this term has fallen out of favour because tsunamis are not related to tides.
25.How many reasons are mentioned in the passage that may cause tsunamis?B
A.One.B.Two.C.Three.D.Four.
26.which of the following shows a tsunami is coming soon?B
A.An earthquake takes place.
B.The water marches towards the coast.
C.The water near the shore is pulled back.
D.The water near the shore is very shallow.
27.What can we learn from the passage?D
A.The word"tsunami"is from British English.
B.The term"tidal wave"is used more often than"tsunami".
C.Sone nuclear accident happened after Indonesia tsunami.
D.More people died in Indonesia tsunami than in Tohoku tsunami.
28.The passage is developed mainly byA.
A.listing the facts             
B.giving some examples
C.providing some numb ers     
D.making some conclusions.

8.Around one in a hundred deaths worldwide is due to passive smoking,which kills about  600,000people a year,World Health Organization (WHO) researchers said on Friday.
In the first study to assess the global impact of second-hand smoke,WHO experts found that children are more heavily exposed to second-hand smoke than any other age-group,and around 165,000of them a year die because of it.
"Two-thirds of these deaths occur in Africa and south Asia,"the researchers,led by Annette Pruss-Ustun of the WHO in Geneva,wrote in their study.
Children's exposure to second-hand smoke is most likely to happen at home,and the double effect of infectious diseases (傳染性疾。 and tobacco"seems to be a deadly causes for children in these regions,"they said.
While deaths due to passive smoking in children were more likely to happen in poor and middle-income countries,deaths in adults were spread across countries at all income levels.In Europe's high-income countries,only 71child deaths occurred,while 35,388deaths were in adults.Yet in the countries assessed in Africa,about 43,375deaths due to passive smoking were in children compared with 9,514in adults.
Pruss-Ustun urged countries to enforce the WHO's Framework Convention on Tobacco Control,which includes higher tobacco taxes (稅收),and advertising bans,among other steps.
"Policy-makers should bear in mind that enforcing complete smoke-free laws will probably reduce the number of deaths due to exposure to second-hand smoke within the first year of its implementation(執(zhí)行),with accompanying reduction in costs of illness in social and health systems,"she wrote.
Only 7.4percent of the world population currently lives in areas with comprehensive smoke-free laws,and those laws are not always strongly enforced.
In places where there are smoke-free rules,research shows that exposure to second hand smoke in high-risk places like bars and restaurants can be cut by 90percent,and in general by 60percent,the researchers said.Studies also show such laws help to reduce the number of cigarettes smoked by smokers and lead to higher success rates in those trying to quit.
28.Where do children most likely suffer the exposure to second-hand smoke?B
A.In their schools.
B.In their homes.
C.In bars and restaurants.
D.In disease-infected areas.
29.Apart from passive smoking,what is also responsible for the high death rate of African and South Asian children?D
A.Long-term starvation                 
B.Active smoking
C.Poor parental care                   
D.Infectious diseases
30.According to the passage,death in children due to passive smokingD.
A.is partly attributable to their active use of tobacco.
B.is similar in countries at all income levels
C.is controlled in some South Asian countries
D.is low in high-income countries.
31.In the last few paragraphs,the author implies that smoke-free lawsC.
A.have worked reasonably well so far.
B.leave much to be expected.
C.should be enforced strongly                  
D.should be made carefully.
