阅读理解。     We like to keep our distance from others and there are very specific social rules about how close we can
go to others in particular situations. The social distances here are approximate, of course and will vary with
people. But they are still a good general rule. Hall identified four zones that are common for Americans:
     Public Zone: >12 feet. The public zone is generally over 12 feet. That is, when we"re walking around
town, we"ll try to keep at least 12 feet between us and other people. Of course there"re many times when we
cannot do this. We"ll start to notice other people who are with in this distance. The closer they get, the more
we become aware.
     Social Zone:4-12 feet. Within the social zone, we start to feel a connection with other people. When they"re
closer, then we can talk with them without having to shout, but still keep them at a safe distance. This is a
comfortable distance for people who are standing in a group but maybe not talking directly with one another.
     Personal Zone: 1.5-4feet. In the personal zone, the conversation gets more direct, and this is a good distance for two people who are talking seriously about something.
     Intimate(亲密的)Zone: <1.5 feet. When a person is within arm"s reach or closer, then we can touch them
in intimate ways. Romance of all kinds happens in this space. Entering intimate zone of somebody else can be
very threatening.
     The rules about social distances vary with different groups of people. People who live in towns spend more
time close to one another. In a large and crowded city, the distances will be less than in a small town. Different
countries also have different rules about social distances. Watch a Japanese person talking at a party with a
person from a Western country. The Japanese will step in and the Westerner will step back. Speeded up, it"s
like a dance around the room. 1. Which of the following shows how the text is organized? (①=Paragraph 1…)

2. In a less crowded place, an American usually keeps a stranger at a distance of _____ . A. about 1.5 feet
B. less than 4 feet
C. about 2 feet
D. more than 12 feet3. If eight people sit in a room and all of them don"t talk directly with one another, they prefer _____. A. Public Zone
B. Social Zone
C. Personal Zone
D. intimate Zone 4. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. There"re some rules about social distances
B. The Japanese are more polite than Americans
C. The rules about social distances can vary
D. Cities have fewer rules about social distances 5. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. The Japanese would like to dance with people from Western countries
B. The Westerner would like to keep close to people they are talking with at party

举一反三

阅读理解。     Do you know how to prepare for and survive a major earthquake? According to Department of
Conservation scientists, it is important to have the right answer to that question.
     How to Be Prepared
     Electricity, water, gas and telephones may not be working after an earthquake. The police and fire
departments are likely to be tied up. You should be prepared to fend for yourself for at least three days,
preferably for a week. You"ll need food, water and so on. It"s also a good idea to decide ahead of time
how and where your family will reunite if separated during a quake. You might choose an out-of-the-area
friend or relative that family members can call to check on you.
     _____
     If you"re indoors, stay there. Get under a desk or table. The kitchen is a particularly dangerous spot.
If you"re in an office building, stay away from windows and outside walls and do not use the elevator.
If you"re outside, get into the open. Stay clear of buildings, power lines or anything else that could fall
on you. If you"re driving, move the car out of traffic and stop. Avoid parking under or on bridges or
overpasses.
     After an Earthquake
     Check for fire. If you smell gas, shut off the main gas valve (阀). If there"s sign of damage to
electrical wiring, shut off the power at the control box. If the phone is working, only use it in case of
emergency. Avoid driving if possible to keep the streets clear for emergency vehicles. Be careful that
things may fall out of cupboards when the door is opened, and also that chimneys can be weakened
and fall with just a touch. Listen to the radio for important information and instructions. Remember that
aftershocks, sometimes large enough to cause damage in their own right, generally follow large quakes.
If you leave home, leave a message telling your friends and family your location. 1. The underlined phrase "tend for"" in the second paragraph probably means " ______"" A. look for

B. Because your car will be easily damaged in the streets full of blocks
C. Because you should make way for emergency vehicles
D. Because you can"t find a place to park your car5. What will probably happen after a big earthquake? A. The local people"s life will return to normal in a week.

of Fire, and the world"s second most active region, the Alpide belt. Being situated between them means the
islands experience some of the strongest earthquakes and most powerful volcanic eruptions known on Earth.

occurred when the Australian and Sunda plates struck into each other. One rocky plate took a dive below the
other, resulting in an earthquake
     The 9.1-mangitdue 2004 quake and Indian Ocean tsunami killed about 230,000 people in quite a few
countries. Below Indonesia, the Eurasian Plate, Australian Plate, Sunda Plate and Pacific Plate meet together. 1. Which of the following is TRUE of Indonesia? A. It covers 17,500 islands

根据短文内容，从短文后七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。      What Makes Anxiety Happen?
     Well, because we can"t outlaw tests, we might as well figure out how to ease test anxiety. Anxiety is a
feeling a person gets when he or she expects something stressful to happen.
        1   A kid might think, "What if I forget everything I know?" or"What if the test is too hard?" Too many
thoughts like these don"t leave much room in your mind to concentrate on remembering the answers to the test
questions. People with test anxiety can also feel stressed out by the physical reaction and think things like
"What if I throw up?" or"Oh no, my hands are shaking."
     These thoughts can get the person even more upset, making the anxiety even stronger. Now, the person
feels worse and is even more distracted and unable to concentrate.
     What Can You Do?
     You might be reading this article and saying, "Hey! That sounds just like me!" If so, we"re glad you
recognize that this happens to you.    2 Here are some ways to do that;
     ☆Ask for help
     Talk to your mom or dad, your teacher, or your school guidance counselor (辅导员). Just talking to
someone about test anxiety can make you feel better. Describe what happens to you when you"re taking a test
and these people can help you figure out some solutions. For instance, learning study skills can boost your
test-day confidence.
     ☆ 3   Pay attention in class. Do your homework.
     ☆Expect the best   4 Say to yourself,"I studied and I"m ready to do my best."
     ☆Block bad thoughts Watch out for any negative messages ("I"m no good at taking tests" or"I"m going to
freak out if I get a bad grade"). These thoughts can make anxiety worse and make it harder for you to do well
in the test.
     ☆Accept mistakes
     Everyone makes mistakes and be more forgiving of your own mistakes, especially if you prepared for the
test and are set to do your best.
     ☆Take care of yourself
     You"ll feel your best if you get enough playtime, sleep, and nutritious food. This is important all the time,
but be extra-sure you get all three the day before a test.
     ☆Breathe better
     Did you know that breathing exercises can help calm you down? (Just try not to take in too much air
because it might make you feel dizzy.) Here is how to do it.   5   Do this two to four times and you just might
breathe easier the next time you"re taking a test! A. Breathe in slowly and deeply through your nose, and then breathe out slowly through your mouth.
B. Be prepared
C. Take food and nutrition into consideration.
D. Once you have prepared, think positively.
E. Focusing on the bad things that could happen can make a kid feel more worried.
F. He might often think about what would happen to him.
G. Now you can start taking steps to lessen your test anxiety.

任务型阅读。
     Select the best heading from the list for each paragraph1-5. Use each letter ONLY ONCE.
(There are more headings than paragraphs, so you will not use all the headings. List of headings: A. what do people with an intellectual disability need?
B. What is intellectual disability?
C. How do people with an intellectual disability talk?
D. What are the forms of intellectual disability?
E. What causes intellectual disability?
F. How do you talk to a person with an intellectual disability?      _________ 1. People with intellectual disability form one of the largest single disability groups in a
community. Intellectual disability refers to a general slowness to learn and function within society, and the
identification of intellectual disability is usually based on an assessment of a person"s performance in a variety
of tests. An individual"s level of performance, as assessed, can change with time and circumstances. With
skilled training and opportunity for development, people with intellectual disability have much greater potential
for acquiring skills and for participation in community life than previously had been thought possible.
     _________2. In many western societies, five categories of intellectual disability have traditionally been
used in order to indicate the perceived degree of difficulty an individual has with learning. All five may occur
in either children, adolescent or adult, and show as mild, moderate, severe, profound or multiple intellectual
disabilities.
     _________ 3. For the majority of intellectual disabilities, there is no identifiable cause but there are some
causes that are well documented. They include: brain damage at birth due to lack of oxygen-prolonged labor
during childbirth; brain damage before birth due to factors such as rubella, drug or diet-related problems;
damage after birth due to illnesses such as encephalitis or accident; hereditary defects in the genes; abnormal
chromosome count resulting in, for example, Down Syndrome.
     ________ 4. Like everyone else, people with an intellectual disability need a rewarding job, a satisfying
place to live and a good social life. But they may need extra support to achieve these things. Good support
services are based on the principle of normalization-which means enabling people to be part of the community
like everyone else.
     ________ 5. With the introduction of the intellectually disabled into communities, there is a need to
promote awareness of communication. Although many people may have little experience in talking with an
intellectually disabled person, there are common guidelines that can simplify the interaction. Firstly, it is useful
to remember that people with disabilities have feelings. Speaking in the same friendly manner as you would to
anyone else is also recommended. Being prepared to wait a little longer for replies during a conversation with an
intellectually disabled person would undoubtedly benefit the exchange.
