26、   Statistically, air travel is by far the safest way to travel, and you can make flying even safer, just by following these simple rules. As your chances of being involved in an air accident are practically nil（零）, many of these rules concern what you should and shouldn't do to make your journey safer when you are in the air.

Fly on non-stop routes

Most accidents occur during the take-off, climb, descent and landing period of a flight, so flying non-stop reduces your exposure to these complex procedures.

Choose larger aircraft

Although small aircraft have very good safety records, those with more than 30 passenger seats are designed to comply（遵守）with much stricter regulations and are tested more regularly to make sure they still comply. Also, in the unlikely event of a serious accident, larger aircraft provide a better opportunity for passenger survival.

Pay attention to the pre-flight safety briefing (简报)

The information may seem repetitious（重复的）, but it's worth listening to the flight attendants. And even if you’ve flown before, it doesn’t mean you know everything about the aircraft you're on, such as the location of the closest emergency exit.

Store things safely

Never put very heavy articles in the overhead storage bins. They may fall out when someone opens the bin and cause injury. Also, the bin may not be able to hold heavier objects during turbulence（气流）.

Keep our seat belt fastened while you are seated

Cabin crew always tell you this, but it’s important. You would be seriously injured if the plane hits unexpected turbulence. Always fasten your seat belt if you are told to. The general rule of flying is this: If you are told to do something, do it first and ask questions later.

Let the flight attendant pour your hot drinks

Flight attendants are trained to handle hot drinks like coffee or tea in a crowded aisle on a moving aircraft, so allow them to pour the drink and hand it to you. Never ask to take a coffee pot from one of them.

【1】Whom is the passage meant for?

A.Pilots.

B.Flight attendants.

C.Passengers.

D.Airlines.

【2】The underlined word “those” in the second tip refers to”______” .

A.smaller planes

B.passengers

C.larger aircrafts

D.safety records

【3】Which of the following is not true according to the passage?

A.Larger planes have more safety checks and are safer.

B.Take-off is safer on non-stop flights than landings.

C.Every aircraft is different, so the safety procedures may be different.

D.Seat belts should be worn to protect against turbulence.

【4】The best title of the passage should be”_____”.

A.The safest way to travel

B.Air safety tips

C.Non-stop routes

D.How to fly a plane

27、When another old cave is discovered in the south of France, it is not usually news. Rather, it is an ordinary event. Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them. However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940, the world was amazed. Painted directly on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show people hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses, which appear in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals.

Early artists drawing these animals achieved a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit themselves to the easily accessible walls but carried their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or going on hands and knees into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex.

Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive action of water and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside.

Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are hardly recognizable. To prevent further damage, the site was closed to tourists in 1963, 23 years after it was discovered.

【1】Which title best summarizes the main idea of the passage?

A．Wild Animals in Art

B．Hidden Prehistoric Paintings

C．Exploring Caves Respectfully

D．Determining the Age of French Caves

【2】What does the underlined phrase “pays heed to” in paragraph 2 probably means?

A．discovers

B．watches

C．notices

D．buys

【3】Why was painting inside the Lascaux complex a difficult task?

A．It was completely dark inside.

B．The caves were full of wild animals.

C．Painting materials were hard to find.

D．Many painting spaces were difficult to reach.

【4】According to the passage, all of the following have caused damage to the paintings EXCEPT _______.

A．temperature changes

B．air movement

C．water

D．light

28、Last year, I had the chance to study at a British secondary school as an exchange student. I stayed with a lovely host family and went to school with the son, Daniel.【1】 He is learning Chinese and will come to stay with me this year in China!

The British school day begins at 9 a.m. and ends at 4 p.m. 【2】 Every student in the UK must study English, Maths, and the Science subjects: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Students can also choose to study other subjects, such as History, Art and Business.

I enjoyed most of the classes. Technology classes were interesting. I made a clock home.【3】 I like it so much that I still use it as my alarm o'clock. I found Maths quite easy and enjoyable because the material was less advanced in the UK than in China.

【4】 There were a lot of difficult English words, especially in Geography and Biology. Class discussion is very important in the UK, but I could not make much of a contribution because sometimes I wasn’t able to express myself clearly in English. Although there was not as much homework as I was used to, it was still challenging. Fortunately my teachers and classmates were always helpful and gave me lots of encouragement. My language skill improved over time.

I am glad to have the opportunity to experience this different way of life. I met some great people and learnt a lot about school life in the UK. Daniel and his family were kind hosts, and his friends were very nice as well.【5】

A．I can’t wait for Daniel to visit China.

B．The teacher is strict with the students.

C．It is useful for us to learn English well.

D．The teacher helped me put the parts together.

E．We were both 14 years old and we got on well.

F．However, learning in English was a great challenge for me.

G．Students usually have to learn nine subjects at secondary school.

29、Stress Management: How to Reduce, Prevent, and Cope with Stress

If you’re living with high levels of stress, you’re putting your health and happiness at risk. Stress does harm to your health. It may seem like there’s nothing you can do about stress. 【1】 The following stress management tips can help you do that.

Get moving

When you’re stressed, the last thing you probably feel like doing is getting up and exercising. 【2】 You don’t have to be an athlete or spend hours in a gym to experience the benefits. Exercise releases endorphins that make you feel good, and it can also serve as a valuable distraction from your daily worries.

Connect to others

There is nothing more calming than spending quality time with another human being who makes you feel safe and understood. So make it a point to connect regularly — and in person — with family and friends. Keep in mind that the people you talk to don’t have to be able to fix your stress. 【3】. And try not to let worries about looking weak keep you from opening up. The people who care about you will be happy because of your trust. It will only strengthen your relationship.

【4】

When you’re worn out by your morning traffic, or stuck in a stressful meeting at work, you need a way to manage your stress levels right now. The fastest way to reduce stress is by taking a deep breath and using your senses — what you see, hear, taste, and touch — or through a comfortable movement. By viewing a favorite photo, smelling a specific smell, listening to a favorite piece of music, tasting sweets, or hugging a pet, for example, you can quickly relax and focus yourself.

Effective stress management helps you break the hold stress has on your life, so you can be happier, healthier, and more productive. But stress management is not one-size-fits-all. 【5】

A．Take control of your own life.

B．Learn to relieve stress in the moment.

C．They simply need to be good listeners.

D．But physical activity is a huge stress reliever.

E．But you have a lot more control than you might think.

F．That’s why it’s important to experiment and find out what works best for you.

G．While it’s not easy to avoid all stress, Learning about it can help you avoid unnecessary stress.

32、阅读下列材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

I was hit on my back as I walked down the hall. I turned around angrily, only to discover a lovely cat. His name was Oscar and he was born at the shelter I was visiting. The volunteer let me know that the mother was abandoned by her owner. She and the rest of the litter (幼崽) had been adopted quickly, but Oscar remained.

I could tell he was just what we needed. We were just married, full of love and hope, but we were also facing a few unexpected trials. Just weeks after our wedding, my husband was injured in an accident at work, which not only broke his body but his spirit. Hours of physical treatment led to sleepless nights. I hoped that this little cat would cheer up my husband.

When I brought Oscar home, I asked my husband to shut his eyes and open his hands. I handed him the cat, who reached up and rubbed his paws (爪子) against my husband’s face. It had been months since I saw my husband smile like this, and Oscar himself couldn’t stop purring (发出呼噜声).

Years passed, and our sweet Oscar continued to bring us comfort. He had an ability to know if someone was having an emotional moment; he would always try to help.

One day, I received a phone call from my mother telling me that my father had cancer. I swore to do everything I could to help him. Feeling upset, I took a bath to try to collect my thoughts. Oscar reached up, opened the closed door, and jumped directly into the bathtub with me. Hearing the loud noise, my husband ran into the bathroom to find Oscar all wet just inches from my face. That little guy was all heart.

Fortunately, my father beat cancer and recovered fully. Following his final treatment, he was given two weeks of rest at home. He asked if he and my mother could “babysit” Oscar for those weeks. We were more than happy to share.

注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 段落开头已给出。

Paragraph 1:

On the final day of Oscar’s visit, my father decided to bake cookies for me and my husband to thank us for “lending” him our cat.

“Did you add these paw prints on the cookies?” I asked my dad surprisingly.
