15.It is interesting to see that the force of only 6 or 7 people pushing in the same direction can cause up to 1,000 pounds of force-enough to break brick walls.During a deadly stampede(逃奔),people can even die standing up.People die when pressure is put to their bodies in a front to back direction,causing them not to be able to breathe.
If you are in a crowd,the first and most important thing is to make yourself familiar with your surroundings and find different exits.No matter where you are,make sure you always know how to get out.
Make yourself aware of the type of the ground you are standing on,and know that in a crowd of moving people wet ground can cause you to fall.
When in danger,a few seconds can make a difference,giving you the possibility of making use of your escaping route.Always stay closer to the escape route.If you find yourself in the middle of a moving crowd,do not fight against the pressure,do not stand still or sit down,because you can easily get trampled(踩踏).Instead,move in the same direction of the crowd; make use of any space that may open up to move sideways to the crowd movement where the flow is weaker.
Keep your hands up by your chest,like a boxer-it gives you movement and protects your chest.If you fall,get up quickly.If you can't get up because you are injured,get someone to pull you up.If you have kids,lift them up.
If you fall and cannot get up,keep moving in the same direction of the crowd,or if that is not possible,then cover your head with your arms; do not lie on your stomach or back.

32.In a stampede people may die standing up mainly becauseA.
A.they can't breathe freely
B.they push in the same direction
C.they are not able to get up
D.they aren't familiar with the surroundings
33.What does the word deadly underlined in the first paragraph probably mean?C
A.harmful.B.shocking.C.deathly    D.hateful.
34.When in danger,to make a difference,you shouldD.
A.fight against the pressure
B.stand still where you are
C.sit down covering your head
D.move along the escape route.
35.In the passage the write mainly wants to tell usB.
A.how to stay far away from a crowd
B.what to do when you are in a crowd
C.where to go when you are in danger
D.how to get along with a big crowd.

分析 群中发生蜂拥事件会造成大量人员伤亡,作者在本文中主要讲述了在处于人群中时,应该如何去做以防意外发生.

解答 32.A.细节理解题.根据第二段可知,在致命的蜂拥事件中,人们甚至站着就死去了,原因是当压力从他们的身体前方向后方施加时,他们不能呼吸,由此可知A项正确.
33.C  猜测词义题.根据后文句子people can even die standing up.People die when pressure is put to their bodies in a front to back direction,causing them not to be able to breathe.人们甚至会站起来死去.当人们把压力放在身体的前后方向时,人们就会死去,导致他们无法呼吸.可以猜测deadly意义与deathly"致命的"相近,所以答案选C.
34.D推理判断题.根据第五段可知,处于危险中时,确保你可以利用你的逃跑路线,不要与人群的压力相对抗,不要站着不动或坐下来,由此可判断D项正确.
35.B 主旨大意题.第一、二段导入文章的话题,拥挤的人群可能造成人的死亡,后面详细叙述了当你处于人群中时,应该如何去做以防意外发生,由此可判断答案选B.

点评 阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力,要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系,对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断;或根据作者所阐述的观点理论,对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释.考生首先要仔细阅读短文,完整了解信息,准确把握作者观点.

14.Motorists who used to listen to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves,after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface.
A team from the Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of"melody roads",which use cars as tuning forks to play music as they travel.
The concept works by using grooves(凹槽).They are cut at very specific intervals in the road surface.The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes.
Depending on how far apart the grooves are,a car moving over them will produce a series of high or low notes,and designers are able to create a distinct tune.
Paten documents for the design describe it as notches"formed in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melody-like tones."
There are three musical strips in central and northern Japan-one of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song.Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda.He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer before driving over them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tones.
The optimal speed for melody road is 44kph,but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound.
"You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well,"wrote one Japanese blogger."Driving too fast will sound like playing fast forward,while driving around 12mph[20km/h]has a slow-motion effect,making you almost car-sick."
 
28.We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes is depended on.A
A.how far the grooves are        
B.how big the grooves are
C.the number of the grooves
D.the speed of the car
29.The underlined word"optimal"in the passage might meanC
A.fastest    B.possible      C.best      D.slowest
30.In order to hear the music well,you have toD
A.drive very fast
B.drive slowly    
C.open the windows wide
D.keep the windows closed
31.What's the best title of the passage?B
A.A New Type of Music
B.Melody Roads in Japan
C.A Musical Road Surface
D.A New Invention in Japan.

3.1 If your in-box is currently reporting unread messages in the hundreds or thousands,you might have a hard time believing the news:e-mail is on the decline.
At first blush,that might seem to be the case.The incoming generation,after all,doesn't do e-mail.Oh,they might have an account.They use it only as we would a fax machine:as a means to communicate with old-school folks like their parents or to fulfill the sign-up requirements of Web sites.They rarely check it,though.
Today's instant electronic memos-such as texting and Facebook and Twitter messages-are more direct,more concentrated,more efficient.They go without the salutation(称呼语)and the signoff;we already know the"to"and"from."Many corporations are moving to messaging networks for exactly that reason:more signal,less noise and less time.This trend is further evidence that store-and-forward systems such as e-mail and voicemail are outdated.Instead of my leaving you a lengthy message that you pick up later,I can now send you an unobtrusive,easily-consumed message that you can read-and respond to-on the go.
The decline of e-mail corresponds neatly to the dawn of the mobile era.Instantaneous(及时)written messages are different.These are neatly tailored to fit in just about any time:before a movie,in a taxi,waiting for lunch.And because these notes are invariably brief,they're a natural for smartphone typing.With these formats,you also have control over who can correspond with you,which you usually don't in e-mail.And especially on Facebook,instant messaging can take on the character of a chat room,where several people can talk at once.
Does this mean e-mail is on its way to the dustbin of digital history?Not necessarily.E-mail still has certain advantages.Whereas tweets and texts feel ephemeral-you read them,then they're gone,into an endless string,e-mail still feels like something you have and that you can file,search and return to later.It's easy to imagine that it will continue to feel more appropriate for formal communications:agreements,important news,longer explanations.
So,e-mail won't go away completely.Remember,we've been through a transition like this not so long ago:when e-mail was on the rise,people said that postal mail was dead.That's not how it works.Postal mail found its smaller niche,and so will e-mail.Technology rarely replaces an institution completely; it just adds new avenues.
E-mail down,messaging up.Now go clean out your in-box.
 
62.What would the incoming generation like to do with their e-mail accounts?C
A.Contact close friends
B.Send long messages
C.Fill in some forms
D.Communicate with their colleagues
63.Paragraphs 3-4 are important to the passage in that theyB.
A.illustrate the preferences of the young generation
B.explain the possible reasons behind the decline of e-mail
C.reveal the rapid development of e-communication channels
D.offer evidence about the uncertain future of easily-consumed messages
64.What does the underlined word"ephemeral"in paragraph 5 mean?D
A.Conveniently-sent          B.Randomly-written
C.Hardly readable               D.Short-lived
65.What does the author think of e-mail being replaced?A
A.Negative            B.Indifferent         C.Ambiguous        D.Doubtful.
