Pets are popular. They’re good listeners, they encourage us to exercise, and they’re always on our side when we argue with others. They can bring people comfort and pleasure.
But it is important to keep in mind that pets can carry diseases that can make you sick. Washing your hands often — especially after you touch, feed, or clean up a pet — is the best way to keep yourself healthy and prevent the spread of disease. Be sure to clean your fingernails（指甲）carefully every time you wash.
You also can protect your health by wearing gloves while cleaning animal cages or cat litter boxes. Avoid washing your pet in the bathtub (浴缸), but if you do, always disinfect (消毒) the tub immediately afterward.
Be sure to bring your pet to the hospital for examinations every two weeks or month and whenever your pet is sick or injured.
You can do a few other things to keep yourself and your pet healthy. Only give your pet food that has been planned ahead for them. It’s not a good idea to share your food with your pet. Human food (like chocolate) can make animals sick. Never feed your pet raw meat because it can carry germs (细菌) that cause serious illness.
And funny as it can be to see your dog or cat drinking from the toilet, don’t let pets do this. It’s bad for your pet’s health! Give them clean, fresh water to drink at all times.
Never give milk to cats. The only milk an animal should drink is from its mother. Cow’s milk is not for pets, especially for cats, as it makes them sick.
Finally, some animals aren’t pets. Don’t take in a wild or abandoned (被抛弃的) animal as a pet because it may have diseases that could make you or your family sick. Instead, turn to an animal rescue group that is trained in helping sick or abandoned animals.
1.The first paragraph mainly tells us that pets can ______.
A．be great friends B．bring us pleasure
C．help us keep healthy D．do harm to us
2.To keep healthy, the author may be against ______.
A．washing your fingernails after touching your pet
B．wearing gloves when cleaning your pet’s cage
C．washing your pet in the bathtub
D．bringing your pet for examinations regularly
3.The underlined word “it” in Para.7 refers to ______.
A．the cow B．the mother cat
C．cow’s milk D．mother cat’s milk
4. Which is the RIGHT way to feed your pet?
A．Sharing your chocolate with your dog.
B．Letting your dog drink from the toilet.
C．Feeding your little cat with raw meat.
D．Giving your cat cooked fish.
5. According to the text, when you meet an abandoned dog, you should ______.
A．call an animal rescue group

科目：高中英语 来源：2014届安徽省宿州市高二第二次月考英语试卷（解析版） 题型：阅读理解
If you see someone drowning, speed is very important. Once you get him out of the water, if he isn't breathing, you have four minutes before his brain is completely destroyed. Support his neck, move his head back and press his chin upwards. This stops the tongue blocking the airway in the throat and is sometimes enough to get him breathing again. If that doesn't work, start mouth-to-mouth breathing. Press his nostrils (the two holes at the end of your nose, through which you breathe and smell things) together with your fingers. Open your mouth and take a deep breath. Blow into his lungs until his chest rises, then remove your mouth and watch his chest fall. Repeat twelve times a minute. Keep doing until professional help arrives.
To bring a child back to life, keep your lips around his mouth and gently blow into his mouth. Give the first four breaths as quickly as possible to fill the blood with oxygen. If, in spite of your efforts, he starts turning a blue-grey colour, and you can feel no pulse(脉搏), then pressing is the last chance of saving his life.
With arms straight, rock forwards, pressing down on the lower half of the breastbone. Don't be too hard or you may break a rib. Check how effective you are by seeing if his colour improves or his pulse becomes independent to your chest pressing. If this happens, stop the pressing. Otherwise continue until rescue arrives.
1.If you want to save someone drowning, you __________.
A．have to pull off his clothes first .
B．should try to get him out of water as quickly as possible.

2.Once a person stops breathing, it means ___________.

3.To press his chin upwards is a way to _____________.
A．keep the tongue from blocking the airway in the throat .
B．prevent the tongue from stopping the airway in the throat .
C．wipe the tongue out of the throat .
D．see if he can possibly be saved .
4.If the drowning boy has no pulse,_____________.
A．press his chin upwards is enough to get him breathing .
B．blow air into his mouth is sure to save his life .
