21、   Emergencies (紧急情况) don’t happen very often. But when they do, you want to get help first. No one wants to spend time looking up the phone numbers.

In 1968, the United States government wanted one number that people could call for emergencies. They decided that 911 was easy to remember and people could dial it quickly. The very first 911 call was made on February 16, 1968, in Alabama. Today, 911 is used for emergencies in most parts of the United States and many parts of Canada.

Other countries may use other numbers. In Great Britain, it’s 999. In China and Japan, it’s 110. If you’re not sure which emergency number is used in your area, check your phone book.

When there is a need to call: 911, you’d better remember the following tips.

When to call

Never call 911 as a joke or just to see what might happen. The only time you should call 911 is when a person is badly hurt or in danger right now! So call when there is a fire, a car accident, or sudden sickness, etc.

When in an emergency call

When you dial the 911 operator(接线员), it’s always OK to give out your information. Speak slowly and clearly when you explain what’s happening. What happened? Where are you? Who needs help?

Don’t hang up(挂断)!

If you have to call 911, do not hang up until the operator tells you it’s OK to do so. That way, you can be sure that the operator has all the information to offer help fast.

A dog named Faith dialed 911 when her owner, Nancy, who was in a wheelchair fell and needed help. The dog had been taught to use a speed-dial (快速拨号) function. “It was Faith that saved me”, Nancy told the reporter from the newspaper.

【1】The second paragraph is mainly about ________.

A．the history of 911

B．the tips for calling 911

C．the number of the hot line

D．the way to remember the number

【2】People can’t call 911 when ________.

A．a bus hits a boy badly

B．a girl feels unhappy

C．an old lady falls off the stairs, unable to stand up

D．some people can’t get out of a burning building

【3】What should people do while calling 911?

A．Wait for the operator’s words to end the call.

B．Tell the operator what has happened and hang up.

C．Test if your phone can get through to 911.

D．Tell the operator everything as quickly as possible.

22、“The first of June, and the King family is going on holiday tomorrow!” said Meg. “I’m free for three months!”

“And Aunt March went away for her holiday today.” said Jo. “Isn’t life wonderful!”

“What will you do all your holiday?” asked Amy.

“I’ll stay in bed late, and do nothing.” said Meg.

“I’ll have lots of books to read.” said Jo.

“Let’s not do any studying, Beth.” said Amy. “Let’s play all the time and rest, as Jo and Meg are going to do.”

“I will if Mother doesn’t mind.” said Beth.

Mrs. March agreed to the plan and said they could try it for a week.

“But,” she added, “I think by Saturday night you will find that all play and no work is as bad as all work and no play.”

Next day, Meg appeared at ten o’clock and ate breakfast alone. It was a lonely meal and the room was untidy because Beth had not cleaned it.

Jo went to the river with Laurie, then sat in the apple tree and read a book. Beth began to tidy things in her cupboard, but she got tired and left it half-done. She went to her piano, glad that she did not have to wash the cups and plates. Amy sat in the garden to draw, hoping someone would see her and say something nice about her picture. But no one appeared, so she went for a walk, got caught in the rain and came home very wet.

At tea, everyone said it had been a happy but unusually long day. Meg, who had been shopping in the afternoon, now decided that she did not like the dress she had bought. Jo had a headache from reading too long. Beth couldn’t find anything in her cupboard, and the rain had made Amy’s dress so wet that she couldn’t wear it to Katy Brown’s party the next day.

Mrs. March listened, smiled and said nothing.

The week seemed to get longer and longer with nothing much to do, and by Friday the girls were glad that it was nearly over. Then Mrs. March gave Hannah a week of holiday, and when the girls got up on Saturday, there was no breakfast ready, no fire in the kitchen, and no mother waiting for them.

“What has happened?” said Jo.

Meg ran upstairs, and then came down to say that Mother was staying in her room to have a rest.

“She says we must look after ourselves today.” Meg said.

“Good. I want something to do so.” said Jo.

Secretly, they were all pleased to have something useful again. Beth and Amy put cups and plates on the table while Jo and Meg got the breakfast, then Meg took some tea and an egg up to Mrs. March. The tea was too strong and egg was burned. Mrs. March did not complain, but she laughed to herself afterwards.

【1】The girls felt ________ when the first free day was over.

A．sad but relaxed

B．worried

C．excited

D．pleased but bored

【2】Why did Amy give up drawing in the garden?

A．Because she would like to have a walk.

B．Because she wanted to go shopping with Meg.

C．Because she wasn’t admired as thought.

D．Because she didn’t want to mess up her dress.

【3】Mrs. March ________, so she agreed to her daughters’ plan.

A．wanted to teach them a lesson

B．didn’t worry about their plan

C．wanted them to enjoy themselves

D．didn’t mind their ideas

【4】What can we learn from the story?

A．Actions speak louder than words.

B．Hannah is probably a high school student.

C．Beth finished doing washing and cleaning.

D．All play and no work makes Jack a dull boy.
