【解析】

Earthquakes are among the most harmful natural disasters. Earthquakes cannot be predicted, but your chances of survival are much better if you prepare in advance and you know what to do when an earthquake strikes.

Firstly, you need to get something ready. In the event of an emergency, many services like electricity and water may become unavailable. To ensure your survival, besides food and water, you will need the following emergency supplies: flashlights, blankets, money and so on.

Secondly, you should know what to do. When an earthquake happens, drop to the ground, find cover and hide on. If you’re indoors, stay there and find shelter under a strong table. You should also stay clear of windows and outer walls. Don’t use lifts as there’s a risk you’ll become trapped. If you’re in a crowded area, don’t rush towards the doors as there’s a risk of injury. If you’re outside, be aware of falling pieces and stay clear of buildings, overhead structures, walls, power lines and trees. If you’re in a car, stop in an open area until the shaking stops. Check your ABC Radio station, or the ABC Emergency Twitter pages for warnings before moving. Be aware of damaged roads and bridges.

【题目】阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

There was a rich couple who was throwing a big new year party at their house. So they went shopping at the market where everything was of high cost and fixed price. They wanted to maintain their high living standard so they didn’t mind paying a lot for it. After purchasing everything they needed, they called a porter to carry everything and drop it off at their home. The porter who came was of an old age, not very healthy looking. His clothes were torn and he looked as if he wasn’t even able to meet his daily needs.

They asked the porter about the charges for delivering their goods at their home. The old porter quoted just a $20, a price well below the market rate for delivering goods at couple’s home in his cart. Yet, the couple argued and bargained with the porter and finally settled for $15. The porter was struggling to make money for every single meal so he needed anything he could earn.

The couple was very happy thinking how well they bargained with the poor porter and paid him $15 in advance and left after giving the porter their address for delivery. They reached their home and one hour passed, two hours passed, but the porter still hadn’t delivered their stuff.

The wife started to get angry at her husband, “I always tell you not to trust such person but you never listen to me. Such a person is not even able to earn to feed himself for one time in a day, and you handed him everything we purchased for our big party. I am sure instead of delivering at our home, he must have disappeared with everything. We must immediately go back to the market to inquire and then to the police station to file the complaint against him.”

They both left towards the market. On their way, near the market, they saw another porter. They stopped him to inquire about the old porter and noticed that he was carrying their stuff in his cart!

【题目】 Laboratory studies have shown that prolonged exposure to high intensity blue light damages retinal (视网膜的) cells in mice.1So, why is there the disconnect between blue light's effects on rodent(啮齿类动物) eyes and human eyes?

2We have protective elements, such as macular pigments (黄斑色素) and the natural blue-blocking ability of the crystalline lens (晶状体). These structures absorb blue light before it reaches the delicate retina.

Just because blue light isn't harming your retina, it doesn't mean your electronic devices are harmless.3Mounting evidence suggests that screen time before bed increases the time it takes to fall sleep. It also robs you of restorative rapid-eye movement seep, dulls focus, and reduces brain activity the next day.

4

First, turn off your electronic devices before bed. Outside of the bedroom, when you do look at your screens, lower the brightness.

Second, follow the“20-20-20”rule The American Optometric Association(美国验光学会) defines this rule as taking a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at something 20 feet in the distance. 5

Third, use lubricating eye drops before extended computer use. This method will build up the body's natural tears and keep the eye's surface water-bearing.

A.This will allow your eyes to relax.

B.Human eyes are different from rodent eyes.

C.That's why it's so important to have your eyes tested regularly.

D.Because of is wavelength, blue light dos disrupt healthy sleep physiology (生理机能).

E.But epidemiological (流行病学的) studies on real people tell a different story.

F.Consumers often don't think about the impact digital devices might have on their vision.

G.There are ways to make your screen viewing more comfortable and more helpful to seep.
