    Accidents happen almost daily. Some accidents are minor and some are serious but others may be fatal. We read about such accidents nearly every day in the newspapers. It is wrong for people to think that accidents occur only on the roads or highways, or even at worksites. Home accidents are just as common. Because very few home accidents are reported, people tend to think that there are few accidents which happen in homes.

    There have been many cases where people fall to their deaths from high-rise flats. Children often fall from staircases while coming down the stairs. Old people may slip on wet or slippery floors if they are not careful.

        Nowadays there are a lot of modern electrical appliances such as rice-cookers, electric irons, and kettles which make life easy for the modern housewives. These appliances can kill if they are not used in the proper way.

        Gas stoves used for cooking are also dangerous if they are not properly handled. They may cause burns or, in more serious cases, they may even cause fires.

        But all such accidents can be prevented if we are careful and obey simple rules of safety. For example, it is unwise for people to try repairing their own electrical appliances if they do not know how. It is safer for them to get their faulty appliances repaired by a qualified electrician.                                       

    63. People think accidents happen only on the roads or highways because ______.

       A. there are more road accidents

       B. many home accidents are not reported in newspapers

       C. home accidents are not serious

       D. such accidents happen nearly every day

    64. Which of the following accidents may NOT happen in homes?

       A. People may fall to deaths from high buildings.

       B. People may be knocked down by cars on the roads.

       C. Gas stoves may cause burns or even fires.

       D. People may get a shock from an electrical appliance

    65. Which of the following is TRUE about the modern electrical appliances?

       A. They help modern housewives a lot.

       B. They are very dangerous and should not be used.

       C. They are usually safe unless they are used carefully.

       D. They are not dangerous even if they are used carelessly.

     66. People are advised________.

       A. to avoid using electrical appliances

       B. to repair their own faulty electrical appliances

       C. not to repair their own faulty electrical appliances

       D. not to throw away their faulty electrical appliances

    Beldon and Canfield are two seashore towns, not far apart．Both towns have many hotels, and in summer the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other tourists．

    Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon．The next day, this news appeared on page two of the town’s newspaper．The Beldon Post:

    FIRE AT SEABREEZE

    Late last night firemen hurried to the Seabreeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom．The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire．We say again to all our visitors： “Please don’t smoke cigarettes in bed．” This was Beldon’s first hotel fire for five years．

        The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one：

        ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRE

    Last night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Seabreeze Hotel．An angry holiday-maker said, “An electric lamp probably started the fire．The bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotels．When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp．” We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in Canfield．

    What are the facts, then? It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident．There was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel last August: that is one fact．Do we know anything else? Yes, we know that firemen went to the hotel．

        Now what do you think of the rest of the “news” ?

    1.Which of the following best gives the main idea of this text?

        A．Beldon and Canfield are both good places for tourists in summer．

        B．A fire broke out at night in Seabreeze Hotel last summer．

        C．It was not easy to find out exact truth from newspapers．

        D．Two newspapers gave reports on the same matter．

    2.Which of the following are probably facts? 

        a．The fire broke out in a bedroom at the hotel．

        b．A cigarette started the fire．

        c．An old lamp started the fire．

        d．The fire broke out at night．

        e．There has never been a fire in Canfield．

        A．b and c        B．a and d        C．c and e        D．a and c

    3.The Canfield Times used the headline like this in order to make its readers think _______．

        A．hotels in Beldon often catch fire

        B．hotels in Beldon don’t often catch fire

        C．this was the second fire at the Seabreeze Hotel

        D．Beldon was a good place except that hotels there are not quite safe

    4.The Canfield newspaper gave a report just the opposite to the Beldon Post by saying that _______．

        A．the bedroom lamps were very old at the Seabreeze Hotel

        B．the bedroom lights made funny noise when the fire took place

        C．the firemen failed to save clothing, bedclothes and other things

    School violence is in the headlines again after recent shootings at schools in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Colorado. After hearing the news, it’s natural for students — no matter how old they are or where they go to school — to worry about whether this type of incident may someday happen to them.

    So how safe are schools? It’s actually safer to be in a school than in a car. Twice as many 15-to-19-year-olds die in car accidents than in shootings (and that’s all shootings, not just the ones that happen in schools). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, less than 1% of all homicides (杀人罪) among school-age children happen on school grounds or on the way to and from school. So the vast majority of students will never experience violence at school.

    However, some schools have re-evaluated their safety needs in response to the concerns of families and communities. Some now require that guests check in at the office or have more guards on duty. Some schools have fixed metal detectors. Another thing that helps make schools safer is greater awareness of problems like bullying and discrimination. Many schools have practiced programs to fight these problems and to help teachers and administrators know more about protecting students from this type of violence.

    The cause of school violence isn’t easy to understand. There is no single reason why students become violent. Some are just copying behavior they’ve seen at home, in the streets, or in video games, movies, or television. There’s one thing experts do agree on, though: Having access to guns or other weapons makes it easier for some people to lash out against the things or people they don’t like.

    1.Which of the following statements can prove that schools are safe?

    A．About 99% of 15- to-19-year-olds are safe at school.

    B．Fewer students have died in car accidents than in shootings.

    C．Students shot to death at school are half of all students.

    D．Fatal shootings of students are less than 1% of all homicides.

    2. After schools have re-evaluated their safety needs, ________.

    A．families will be more concerned about schools

    B．communities will be responsible for schools

    C．teachers will pay more attention to shootings

    D．administrators will arrange to have more guards on duty

    3.From the last paragraph we can conclude that ______.

    A．experts have found no reason for school violence

    B．students with weapons are easily upset about things

    C．school violence could be copied from violence in society

    D．no single reason makes students violent

    4.We could probably see this passage in ______.

    A．an analysis report

    B．a realistic novel

    C．a case investigation

    D．a news journal
