    【题目】阅读理解
    According to EMTP and Stat Gear CEO Avi Goldstein, every driver should be taught how to get out of a car when it becomes submerged in water.
    “Accidents and natural disasters often occur so quickly that it’s essential for drivers to be prepared,” says Goldstein. “In this case, preparation is simply knowing what should be done before it happens.”
    Goldstein offers the following lifesaving tips:
    1.Try to stay calm. The worst thing you can do is become overly agitated and panicked.
    2. Don’t try to open the door. This will cause the car fill with water very quickly.
    3. Unfasten your seat belt or cut it if it’s jammed.
    4. Help free anyone else in the car.
    5. Use a window punch — preferably spring-loaded. It’s nearly impossible to break a car window with your hands or feet.
    6. Exit through the broken window and swim up to safety.
    “Every car should be equipped with a window punch and seat belt cutter, but they are usually completely forgotten by car owners,” says Goldstein. For example, the T3 Tactical Auto Rescue Tool from Stat Gear features a 440c stainless steel serrated knife, seat belt cutter, spring-loaded window punch and LED light.
    Goldstein asserts that the T3 or another similar tool should always be within arms length of a driver. “If for any reason a driver becomes pinned into his or her seat, emergency tools need to be within reach--otherwise they are useless. They will do you no good in your trunk or backseat.” The following is a quick demonstration on how to escape a sinking car with a baby on board.
    （1）What is the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 1?
    A.washed
    B.cleaned
    C.stuck
    D.discovered
    （2）According to the passage, where should you put a window punch and a seat belt cutter in your car?
    A.Near the driver’s seat.
    B.In the trunk.
    C.In the back seat.
    D.Under the engine.
    （3）What will be following the passage?
    A.How to save a baby in a car.
    B.How to help a baby escape from a car.
    C.How to escape from a sinking car with a baby.
    D.How to avoid sinking a car with a baby.

    【题目】阅读理解
    Twenty-five years ago, most young Britons wanted a career in law, to be a doctor, or, if they were creative enough, to take up singing. But today, things stand differently.
    According to a survey by Tesco Mobile, a UK company, the “dream job” of young people aged between 16 and 25 in the UK is a video blogger, or “vlogger”. The survey, carried out among 1,002 people, found that as much as 40 percent of them put vlogger as their number one choice on a list of ideal careers.
    This change is undoubtedly as a result of the Internet and social media. They have made it so much easier to reach audience of the world, without having to enter a career in show business in the traditional way.
    In the past, the biggest stars were trained by the Hollywood studios; now, anyone with a computer camera can become a star. Vloggers are the big stars of today because they are normal people interacting with their fans about everyday life.”
    However, what people see is only the bright side of being a vlogger and they fail to notice the fact that only those who are successful earn fame(名声) and fortune. For every success there are hundreds of others who never get off the starting line. There are the dreams that come true and the dreams that remain dreams forever.
    Although being vloggers is popular, some young people choose to follow careers that don't necessarily earn them fame, but allow them to make good use of the Internet to share their hobbies. Young Israeli David Leshaw, for example, runs a business called the Finishers Club. It's an online platform for runners to keep a record of their races. His job allows him to express his enthusiasm, and is always a learning experience. And that's enough for him.
    （1）What is the passage mainly about?
    A.Most young Britons choose to be vloggers as their job.
    B.The Internet is influencing young Britions' career choice.
    C.The Internet is taking the place of traditional studios.
    D.Young Britons can not find jobs without the Internet.
    （2）Why do more and more young Britons choose to be vloggers?
    A.Vloggers can earn greater fame and more money on the Internet.
    B.There is too much competition in the traditional show business.
    C.The Internet makes it convenient to enter show business.
    D.Anyone with a computer will surely become a star.
    （3）What can we infer from the fifth paragraph?
    A.Only a few vloggers can be successful.
    B.A vlogger can not earn fame and fortune.
    C.People often see the bright side of being a vlogger.
    D.Dreams will always remain to be dreams.
    （4）What do young people like David do on the Internet?
    A.Learn from others.
    B.Become an online hit.
    C.Hold running races.
    D.Mix jobs with hobbies.

    【题目】阅读理解
    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
    The Price of Success
    One problem for schools is that many students do not want to study hard. As a result, they perform (表现) poorly in their classes. This is especially true in the United States, where average scores for math and science are lower than in many other countries. In recent years, schools and charities have been looking for ways to help students get better grades in these subjects. An organization called the LMD Foundation introduced a program called Learn and Earn recently.
    In the program, money was used to get a group of students to study harder in math and science. In addition to the normal school day, they went to after-school classes for four hours each week. The students were paid eight dollars for each hour of after-school class. By the end of the year, the students in the program had higher grades than a similar group of students who had not taken part.
    Not everyone thinks that this is a good idea, though. TV reporter John Tulenko studied data (数据) from a similar program. He found that students' grades went back down when they stopped getting paid. Many people are worried about this. They think that the students study because they want money, not because they enjoy learning. Also, some people believe that these types of programs are a bad idea because it is a large part of a teacher's job to get students to study. If students are given money, some teachers might stop trying to do this.
    However, others believe that these learning programs can be helpful for students from poor families. Many of these students do part-time jobs after school, and some even quit school at a young age to work. Some do this to help get money for their families. Others feel that they can learn more by working than by going to school. Programs like Learn and Earn let these students stay in school and still make money.
    （1）What is true about many students in the United States?
    A.They are not allowed to receive help from organizations.
    B.They study more than students in other countries.
    C.They are doing poorly in math and science.
    D.They do not help their classmates get better grades.
    （2）Students in the Learn and Earn program ________.
    A.were asked to help other students with poor grades
    B.were given money if their grades went up
    C.were made to go to school during summer vacation
    D.were paid to go to extra classes after school
    （3）Why do some people think that programs like Learn and Earn are a bad idea?
    A.Students' grades only improve a little during the program.
    B.Students stop studying when they are in the program.
    C.Teachers might stop trying to do a big part of their job.
    D.Teachers have started giving low grades to save money.
