Visitors can find a small, old house called the O. Henry Museum in central Austin, Texas. William Sydney Porter(1862-1910)----better known as O. Henry, was one of America’s best loved writers of short stories. Beginning in 1893, he lived here. It was saved from destruction, moved, and turned into a museum in 1934. The museum is a good way to learn about the interesting life of him.
William Porter rented this house and lived with his wife and daughter for about two years. Many objects in the museum belonged to the Porters. Others did not, but are in the house to recreate the way it looked during their lifetime.
Porter worked at a pharmacy, farm, land office and bank. He also loved words and writing. The museum has special proof of Porter’s love of language---his dictionary. It’s said that he read every word in it. Porter started a small publication called “The Rolling Stone”. He wasn’t being published early on, so he published himself. His funny stories, poems, and drawings were published in the magazine. But it was too costly to continue for long, so he closed the project after about one year.
Other troubles would lead the Porters to leave Austin. Porter was accused of financial wrongdoing at the bank and lost his job. Fearing a trial, he fled the country. But he returned because his wife was dying. After her death, he faced trial and was found guilty. He served three and a half years in a federal prison in Ohio.
Porter would keep his time in prison a secret. But there was one good thing about it. It provided him with time to write. By the time of his release, he had published 14 stories and was becoming well-known as O. Henry.
Porter would later move to New York City and find great success there. He published over 380 stories in the last eight years of his life.

阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意每题词数要求)。
[1]Freezing weather can mean frostbite(冻伤)and hypothermia(体温过低)unless a person is prepared. Today we talk about how to stay warm,dry and safe.
[2]Frostbite is damage that happens when skin is exposed to extreme cold for too long.It mainly happens on the hands,feet,nose and ears.If deeper tissue is affected, a person is likely to feel pain every time the area gets cold.Hypothermia is a condition that develops when the body cannot produce as much heat as it:releases.Signs of hypothermia include uncontrollable shaking,very slow breathing and difficulty thinking clearly.
[3] To avoid cold-related injuries,here is a simple way to remember four basic steps to staying warm.Think of COLD—C.O.L.D.
[4]The C stands for cover.Wear a hat and scarf to keep heat from escaping through the head,neck and ears.And wear mittens(连指手套)instead of gloves.
[5]The O stands for overexertion(用力过度).Avoid activities that will make you sweaty.Wet clothes and cold weather are a dangerous combination.
[6] L is for layers.Wearing loose,lightweight clothes,one layer on top of another,is better than wearing a single heavy layer of clothing.
[7]D is for dry.In other words,stay as dry as possible.Pay attention to the places where snow can enter clothing.These include the tops of boots,the necks of coats and the wrist areas of mittens or gloves.
[8] And here are two other things to keep in mind-one for children and .Eating snow might be fun but it lowers the body’s temperature.And drinking alcohol might make a person feel warm.But what it really does is weaken the body’s ability to hold heat.
1.For what purpose did the writer write this passage?(no more than l5 words)
2.List two signs of hypothermia.(no more than 8 words)
3.Should we drink alcohol to keep warm? Why or why not? (no more than 15 words)
