Almost all theme park accidents can be prevented. Here, based on coverage of theme park safety, are some tips to help you and your family stay safe on your next visit.
If you are visiting with a child, take a moment to explain the ride to them, and tell them what they should do. They are depending upon you to keep them safe. Set a good example for them by following the rules of the park, and make sure that they know you expect them to follow those rules, too.
Tell them to stay seated, to hold the grab bar or put their hands in the laps, and not to stick their knees and feet outside a ride vehicle. Make them look to you for the okay to get on or off a ride, too. And never put a crying child on a ride. If your child starts to cry, let others pass you in line until your child is calmed. Or, gently exit the queue and find something more relaxing to do. 
Young kids can’t keep an adult’s pace in a theme park. Let them take plenty of breaks.
“Kids get tired,” said TPI reader Matt Johnson, a father of four. “Tired kids make parents even more tired. And tired kids and parents may get hurt — physically and emotionally.” He advises that parents plan a mid-day break, perhaps a swim back at the hotel, to avoid mid-day heat and crowds. “You will see cranky families having a miserable time while you are refreshed and having a great evening.”

A.children should be trained to be more independent
B.a(chǎn)dults should tell children some safety rules firstly
C.a(chǎn)dults should set a good example to conduct well in a theme park
D.there is a danger to take young children to visit a theme park
小題2:Which of the following is NOT right for children who are taking the rides?

B.They are forbidden to put their knees or feet out.
C.They should ask adults’ permission first to get on a ride.
D.Without adults’ okay sign, children shouldn’t get off a ride.
小題3:If your child begins to cry just when he is going to take a ride, you should ______.
A.tell him to be relaxedB.make him share your interest
C.give up the present activityD.encourage him to be brave
小題4:We may infer from Matt Johnson’s words that ______.
A.he doesn’t like to visit a theme park with his children
B.parents with many children may be tired of visiting a theme park
C.not all the families are relaxed or happy when they visit a theme park
D.visitors should arrange everything carefully before starting

46 , the moment that really took 47 breath away occurred in a village deep in the mountains. I was 48 a woman villager for an article. 135 centimeters tall, she was small in figure but strong in 49 . Through determination, she had learned to read and write, and 50 to become part of the leadership of the 51 .
Learning her story, Barrett was as 52 as I by this tiny woman’s achievements. His eyes were wet and there was a 53 of love and respect on his face. He had finally understood the importance of my work.
When leaving for home, Barrett even offered to stay 54 as a volunteer. My insides suddenly felt struck. This 55 achieved all I’d expected. Soon he will celebrate his 18th birthday. He’ll be a man.

My elder brother Steve, in the absence of my father who died when I was six, gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult.
For instance, Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took the time to ask me what happened. When I explained that my baseball had soared through Mrs. Holt’s basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve encouraged me to confess(承認(rèn))to her. After all, I should have been playing in the park down Fifth Street and not in the path between buildings. Although my knees knocked as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the window from my pocket money if she would return my ball. I also learned from Steve that personal property is a sacred(神圣的) thing. After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to someone else in spite of the fact that it had little value. He reminded me of how much I’d hate to lose to someone else the small dog that my father carved from a piece of cheap wood. I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids, and still remembered the smell of her perfume as she patted me on my shoulder.
Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was twelve, I killed an old brown sparrow in the yard with a BB gun. Excited with my accuracy, I screamed to Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “The only time you should even think of hurting a living thing is if it hurts you first. And then you think a long, long time.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.
小題1: What is the main subject of the passage?
A.The relationship between Mark and Steve.
B.The important lesson Mark learned in school
C.Steve’s important role in mark’s growing process.
D.Mark and Steve’s respect for living things.
小題2:It can be inferred from the passage that when Mark confessed to Mrs. Holt, __________.
A.he felt surprisedB.he was light-hearted
C.he felt frightened D.he knelt before her
小題3:In the story about the pen, which of the following lessons did Steve teach his brother?
A.Respect for personal property.B.Respect for life.
C.Sympathy for people with problems.D.The value of honesty.
小題4:According to the writer, which was the most important lesson Steve taught his young brother?
A.Respect for living things.B.Responsibility for one’s actions.
C.The value of the honesty.D.Care for the property of others.
小題5:Which of the follow is true according to the passage?
A.Mark was still a boy when he wrote this passage.
B.Mark lost the small dog his father carved somewhere.
C.When a living thing hurts you, you should kill it.
D.Even if a living thing hurts you, you should not kill it without hesitation.

Several hundred strangers received “l(fā)ove letters” from a young man on the street. The letter was written and given out by Yang Yang, a student majoring in human resources at Chongqing University of Science and Technology,who hoped to show his disappointment with job hunting.
Yang’s story has caught media attention perhaps because it is similar to those of millions of recent graduates seeking jobs and struggling for survival in the country’s wealthiest cities. They have diplomas, rather than professional skills,and come to big cities in hopes of better lives, only to find low-paying jobs and poor living conditions.
They are China’s “ant tribe(蟻族)”, a term created by sociologist Lian Si from Peking University in his 2009 book, Ant Tribe. “They’re so similar to ants. They share small and narrow living areas. They’re intelligent and hard-working, yet nameless and underpaid.” The term also speaks to their helplessness in a world governed by the law of the jungle -- only the strongest survive.
A survey in Lian’s another book published this year, Ant Tribe II, found nearly 30 percent of “ants” are graduates of famous universities—almost three times last year’s percentage. Most had degrees in popular majors. In addition, 7.2 percent of "ants" have at least a master’s degree compared to 1.6 percent in 2009.
An “ant’s” average monthly salary is l, 904 yuan, with about 64 percent of them earning less than 2,000 yuan a month.
Another survey in the 2010 Annual Report on the Development of Chinese Talent found more than 1 million “ants” live in big cities.
“Most ants are from rural families or small towns, and their experiences in universities didn’t arm them well enough to fight with competitors in big cities’ employment markets.” Professor Zhang Ming at Renmin University of China said.
The “ant tribe’s” embarrassing living situations have become a serious social problem, and the government should develop smaller cities to attract more graduates from big cities, Zhang
believed.
However, “ants” expect more study and training opportunities in big cities, which keeps them positive despite their situations.
小題1:Yang’s story is introduced in order to_________.
A.a(chǎn)nalyze graduates’ difficulties in finding jobs
B.lead to the topic of the article—“ant tribe”
C.tell readers a story about those big cities
D.show a clever way of dealing with pressure
小題2:The “ants” fail to find high-paying jobs mainly because__________.
A.they have no diplomas from good universities
B.their majors do not meet the needs of society
C.those from rural areas are not treated equally
D.they do not have necessary professional skills
小題3:“Ant tribe” members are similar to ants in the following aspects EXCEPT that_________.
A.they live in narrow and small places in groups
B.they work hard but earn little for survival
C.they are in a world judged by the jungle law
D.they are pleased with being nameless and underpaid
小題4:Professor Zhang thought “ants” problems could be solved by__________.
A.creating more jobs for graduates in big cities
B.developing smaller cities to attract graduates
C.sending graduates to rural areas and small towns
D.training graduates to improve their ability
