Question

Good Housekeeping has discovered that even if a child wear a helmet when she bikes, or skates, it may not protect her from a serious head injury.
Every year, 390,000 children under age 15 go to hospital emergency rooms with bike-related injuries. Of that number, about one third children suffer head injuries and an estimated 200 die. By wearing a helmet, a child can reduce her risk of injury by as much as 85 percent. But remember —— a bicycle helmet must fit properly to be safe. Here are five steps to making sure your child's helmet fits properly.
1) If you haven't bought your child's helmet already, you might want to consider one with a rear stabilizer(穩(wěn)定桿). A rear stabilizer holds the back of the head gently and helps the helmet stay correctly positioned.
2) The helmet should fit closely and shouldn't slide from side to side or front to back. If your child can put two fingers on both temples inside the helmet, it's too big. Try a smaller size. But if the next size down is too small, use the fit pads(護(hù)墊). Fit pads come in different sizes and attach to the helmet with Velcro.
3) Tell your child to open her mouth widely and ask if she can feel the helmet push down onto the top of her head. If she can't, you need to readjust her helmet.
4) To prevent strap slippage, wind a rubber band around the strap where it meets the fastener.
5) Recheck the fit regularly.
You should replace the bicycle helmet:
If she has been in an accident with it.
If the buckle(金屬扣) breaks or if a piece breaks off.
If it doesn't have a U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, American Society for Testing and Materials, or Snell Memorial Foundation sticker.
If it doesn't fit correctly. Even if the helmet fit perfectly two years ago, it might be too small now.

試題分析：騎車或滑冰時(shí)，孩子戴了頭盔，可以大大降低頭部受傷的危險(xiǎn)，但是不可能完全保證孩子的頭部免受嚴(yán)重的傷害。這是因?yàn)轭^盔必須合身得體，才能確保安全。本文就此給出了五個(gè)步驟。
小題1:C 推理判斷題。全文講的都是“怎么給孩子戴頭盔才安全”，這個(gè)當(dāng)然是給家長(zhǎng)看的，故C項(xiàng)
正確。
小題2:B主旨大意題�！癊very year, 390,000 children under age 15 go to hospital emergency rooms with
bike-related injuries. Of that number, about one third children suffer head injuries and an estimated 200 die. By
wearing a helmet, a child can reduce her risk of injury by as much as 85 percent.”這一段話大意是“每年，有
390,000例15歲以下孩子到醫(yī)院急診室急救都與騎車所造成的傷害有關(guān)。其中大約三分之一的孩子是頭部
受傷，估計(jì)有200人死亡。帶頭盔，高達(dá)85%受傷的危險(xiǎn)可以規(guī)避”。說(shuō)明作者強(qiáng)調(diào)的是“孩子騎車時(shí)正
確配戴頭盔的重要性”。
小題3:B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Try a smaller size. But if the next size down is too small, use the fit pads(護(hù)
墊)”選B項(xiàng)。
小題4:A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“You should replace the bicycle helmet: …If the buckle(金屬扣) breaks or if a piece breaks off.”選擇A 項(xiàng)。
