    Besides calling 911, here is what to do in some life-threatening emergencies when no oneis

             

     
    around to help.

    Lost in the wilderness
    First, you’ve got to acknowledge you’re in trouble. Stay where
    you can be seen clearly and remember to rest. Keeping a sense
    of humor helps too—it reduces stress and helps creative thinking.
    In a wide open area, make a colorful cross out of rocks to show
    your present position.

     

     
    Choking

    Aim to hit the top of the chair against your stomach, in the soft part
    below the bony upside-down V of the ribs（肋骨）. Make a sudden
    push against the chair. If you still can’t breathe after six tries, call 911,
    even if you can’t talk. Write the word choking somewhere nearby, and
    leave the line open until help arrives.


     
    Severe bleeding

    Use your hand or clean cotton, or paper towels, or a scarf,
    or any cloth you can find, and push down on the wound
    until the bleeding stops. But if you put a band around
    your leg tightly, you’re going to close the vessels（血管）
    to the entire leg. In this way, you could lose your foot.
    Bear attack


     
    If you surprise a bear, don’t run away. That invites an attack.

    Instead, stand up and back away slowly, without looking the
    bear in the eyes. If it does charge at you, stick out your chest,
    raise your arms, and spread your legs. Shout at the bear, to
    frighten it. If it’s going to attack, lie facedown, with your hands
    held firmly behind your neck. Play dead until you’re sure the bear
    is gone.
    【小题1】When you see a colorful cross made of rocks in the wilderness, you know    .
    A．someone is bleedingB．someone is choking
    C．someone is lostD．someone is attacked by a bear
    【小题2】If you are still choking after six tries, you should         .
    A．keep a sense of humorB．call 911 and leave the line open
    C．use your hand our clean cottonD．lie down with your hands behind your neck
    【小题3】Don’t tie around your bleeding leg tightly, or you could        .
    A．stop bleedingB．reduce stress
    C．lose your footD．cause breathlessness
    【小题4】The passage is mainly teaching us how to      .
    A．survive the emergenciesB．avoid a bear attack
    C．deal with a chokeD．find our way

    科目：高中英语 来源：2014届安徽省高二下学期期中考试英语试卷（解析版） 题型：其他题

    We’ve all done it at one point or another. You’re driving along to work or school when that familiar sound reaches your eardrums(耳膜). You look down, reach into your pocket and begin to read, your steering wheel(方向盘) in one hand, your phone in the other. As you respond to that text message from your friend, you look intermittently(间歇地) at the road, and then back down at your phone. You’ve done it plenty of times before. What can go wrong?

    What do you think is the number one killer of teenagers in the U.S.? Drugs? Alcohol? Violence? The answer is distracted driving. According to the National Safety Council, over 24 percent of all motor vehicle crashes involve cell phone use. Either a quick 30-second phone call or a simple text reading may be the cause of a traffic accident. In addition, drivers who talk on a cell phone, whether hands-free or not, are four times more likely to crash.

    The risk of teenagers getting into an accident rises sharply. According to keepthedrive.com, more than 3,000 teenagers die in car accidents each year with about another 450,000 teenagers being injured. Additionally, according to a University of Utah study, reading or sending even one text message is equal to having a 0.08 alcohol level. In most states, that is considered as drunk-driving.

    So, how do you prevent yourself from the danger of distracted driving? The answer is simpler than you might think. Put your phone away. Mute(消音) your phone or just turn it off while driving. If you still can’t help reaching for your phone, throw it on the backseat. This way, you won’t be able to get to it until you arrive at your destination.

    You may get away with talking on the phone now, but there may be a day when you don’t. Dropping your phone may be an inconvenience, but it’s better than being a victim of your distracted driving.

    Title: The danger of reading and texting on the phone while driving

    1._______

    Drivers are used to reading and2.___ to text messages while driving.

    3.___ of

    distracted driving

     About a quarter of all motor vehicle crashes are 4.___ to cell phone use.

    Drivers talking on a cell phone have a much stronger 5. of crashing.

    The rising risk of teenagers getting into accidents

     A number of teenagers get 6._____ in or even die from car accidents every year.

    Reading or sending one text message while driving 7.____ having a 0.08 alcohol level.

    8.___ of preventing distracted driving

     Mute your phone or turn it off to keep you concentrated on driving.

    Put your phone out of your 9.___ while driving.

    Conclusion

    It may be not 10.___ for you to drop your phone but you can protect your self from hurt or death.

    Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It is also the most neglect (忽视). Common reasons for not eating breakfast include having no time, not feeling hungry, traditional dislike and dieting.

    Breakfast simply means “break the fast’’. Your body spends at least 6 to 12 hours each night in a fasting state. In the morning your body needs energy for the day’s work ahead. 

    A good breakfast should provide 1/3 of your total calorie(卡路里)needs for the day. On average, we eat 400 less calories for breakfast than for dinner. If breakfast doesn’t appeal (吸引) to you in the morning, try eating a lighter dinner earlier in the evening or save half of your dinner for breakfast in the morning.

    If you still aren’t hungry in the morning, start with something small like juice or toast or have a nutritious (有营养的) mid-morning snack (小吃) later when you are hungry.

    So, you say you are on a diet. Some people fear that eating breakfast will make them hungrier during the day and they will eat more. It is true that eating breakfast is likely to make you feel hungry throughout the day. That is because your body is working correctly. Although you may feel as if you are eating more all day long, in reality you are probably not.

    Not eating breakfast can also cause you overeat, since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel very hungry later. To make matters worse, since your body is in a slow state, it will not be able to burn those extra calories very efficiently (有效). If you feed your body healthy snacks and meals throughout the day, you are less likely to become hungry and stuff (填饱) yourself as soon as you begin to eat.

    Since breakfast is the first and most important meal of the day, choosing the right food is important. The best breakfast foods are fruits, juice, lean meat and grain products such as bread, rice, noodles and cereals.

    1.What is the meaning of the word “fast” in the phrase “break the fast”? 

    A．movement                            B．going without food

    C．quickness                             D．certain kind of food

    2.If you don’t want to have breakfast in the morning, according to the writer’s suggestion, you should________.

    A．see a doctor to have an examination

    B．have a little supper

    C．go to a restaurant to enjoy a good meal

    D．have a good supper

    3.Eating breakfast, in fact, makes your body_________.

    A．work out of order                       B．produce too much energy

    C．work well                             D．feel hungry quicker

    4.In the last paragraph the writer mainly_________.

    A. persuades us to have a good breakfast

    B. tell us what food isn’t suitable for breakfast

    C describes when and how we should have our breakfast

    D .tell us what food we should have for breakfast

    第三部份　阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）

    阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中选出最佳选项。

    Dear Betty,

    My roommate’s family wants me to celebrate Thanksgiving Day with them in their home. I accepted the invitation, and I’m excited about going, but I’m a little nervous about it, too. The social customs in my country are different from those here, so I’m a little worried about making mistakes.

    Should I bring a gift, such as candy or flowers? Should I arrive on time or a little late?  At the dinner table, how can I know which fork or knife to use? How can I let the family know that I’m thankful for their kindness?

    Yours,

    Knowing Nothing

    Dear Knowing Nothing,

    It’s a good idea to bring a gift when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always welcome, or you can bring a bottle of wine if you know the family drink it.

    You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don’t get there early. If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.

    Try to relax at the dinner table. If you don’t know how to use the right fork, knife or spoon, just watch the other guests, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, don’t be shy about asking the person next to you; it’s better to ask them than to be silently uncomfortable and nervous.

    If you like the food, say so. Of course, you’ll thank the host and hostess for the meal and for their kindness. It’s also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.

    Yours,

    Betty

    56. Knowing Nothing wrote a letter to Betty to _____.

    A. tell Betty some good news     B. ask for some advice

    C. answer some questions            D. invite her to dinner

    57. According to Betty, Knowing Nothing ______ when going to a dinner party.

    A. can only bring some flowers
