Because earthquakes happen without warning, it’s important to take steps now to prepare. Because you don’t know where you will be when an earthquake happens, prepare some supplies for your home, workplace, and car. 1. Water. A person needs at least 1/2 gallon of water daily just for drinking. Store at least1 gallon of water per person per day and be prepared for a 72-hour period. It’s suggested that you buy bottled water. Keep bottled water in its original container and do not open it until you need to use it. Also, do check the “use by” date. 2. Food. It’s always a practical idea to keep a supply of non-perishable(不易腐烂的) food on hand. Have an enough supply of canned food, dried milk, dried fruits, non-salted nuts and canned juices for at least 72 hours. 3. Flashlights and spare batteries. Keep a flashlight beside your bed, at your place of work, and in your car. Do not use matches or candles after an earthquake until you are sure that no gas leaks. Prepare a battery –powered radio and spare batteries. Most telephones will be out of order, so radios will be your best source of information. 4. Clothes. If you live in a cold place, you must think about warmth. You might not have heat after an earthquake. Think about your clothing and bedding supplies. 1. You should prepare all of the following except _______________. A. canned juices B. dried fruits C. fresh vegetables D. dried milk 2. If you live in a cold place, you should prepare _______________ .

America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon. They don’t feel hurt. If the same two people meet again, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand .Friendships between us develop more slowly but may become lifelong feelings, extending（延伸）deeply into both families. There is another difficult point for us to understand. Although Americans treat friends warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to them if it requires a great deal of time. But in China, we are usually generous with our time. We, as hosts, will appear at an airport even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take a day off from our work to act as guides to our friends. It is opposite in America. Americans cannot manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily plans. They will probably expect the visitors to get themselves from the airport to the hotels. And they expect the visitors will phone them from there. Once the visitors arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. For Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to restaurants, except for business matters. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. So accept their hospitality（好客）at home and enjoy your visit in America! 1. The underlined phrase "pick up" in Paragraph 1may mean "_________________". A. put down B. give up C. pay no attention to D. continue 2. From the passage, we can know_________________. A. Americans are always generous with their time. B. Americans don't feel hurt if their friendships disappear soon. C. Chinese friendships develop more slowly but will never disappear. D. Chinese friendships develop faster than American friendships. 3.This passage is most probably written for __________________. A. American students B. Chinese students C. Chinese visitors to America D. American visitors to China

Our spiritual intelligence quotient, SQ (精神智商)helps us understand ourselves and live fuller, happier lives. While we’re all born with SQ, most of us even don’t know that we have it. Luckily, you don’t have to sign up for classes to learn how to enhance(加强) your SQ. Here are some simple steps that can lead you to this new level of understanding: Sit Quietly. The step of developing SQ begins in solitude （独处） and silence. To tune in to its whisper, you have to keep away from your busy, noisy, complicated life and make yourself do nothing at all. At home, for example, shut the door of your bedroom, take a few deep breaths and let them out very, very slowly. Step Outside. For many people, nature makes their spirit free. Go outside to watch a beautiful sunset. Follow the flight of a bird; watch clouds floating overhead. Find An Activity You Enjoy. It’s important to find a hobby that helps you tune in to your spirit. Garden, walk or jog, arrange flowers, listen to music that touches your soul. Ask Questions Of Yourself. Some people use their thoughtful time to focus on scriptures (经文). Others ask open-ended (无确定答案的) questions, such as “What am I feeling? What are my choices?” But don’t expect an answer to arrive through some super-natural form of e-mail. Later that day you’ll suddenly find yourself thinking about a problem from a perspective (角度) you never considered before. Trust Your Spirit. While most of us rely on gut feelings (直觉) to warn us of danger, SQ usually nudges （渐渐推动） us, not away from, but toward some action that will lead to a greater good.
1.To enhance your SQ, you should first _______________. A. stand loneliness and silence B. make your life simpler and less busy C. give up the daily things in your life D. listen more to your whisper 2.The underlined phrase “tune in to your spirit” in the fifth paragraph probably means ________________. A. get your spirit relaxed B. keep up your spirit C. listen to your spirit D. change your spirit 3. What will happen after people ask questions of themselves? A. People will lead to a greater good. B. People will think about a problem in a different way. C. People will expect answers through e-mails. D. People will keep away from their busy life. 4. What is the best title for the passage? A. Advantages and disadvantages of SQ B. The relationship between your SQ and you C. What SQ is and in what ways it can be improved D. What SQ is and in what ways you can make your life easier

A lot of stories are about friendship and courage. They have been told in many different ways. It is just something that people need to be told from time to time that perhaps people would grow bored of it. Well, director Tom Hooper’s The King’s Speech, a historical movie about the British royal family, won the Oscar on 27th, February, 2011. The movie tells about the true story of a King George VI and it also tells the story of a friendship between the king and his doctor. They find something special about the word “courage”. Just as the name of the movie, the story was simple but moving. Maybe The King’s Speech is just an ordinary story, though it won the Oscar. Throughout the honored movies in Oscar’s these years, it’s not difficult to find out that they seldom follow a traditional Hollywood way. The traditional way of Hollywood means shiny actors, famous director, a lot of money, 3D technology or something else. With the development of technology, our native movies prefer to follow the traditional Hollywood way. But the results were the decrease of the good comments(评论). What can we learn from that? The standard(标准) for a good movie is not how well- known the actor is, how famous the director is, or how eye-catching the usage of the special skills are, but the connotation(内涵) or the theme the movie includes! 1.Is The King’s Speech about friendship and courage? 2. When did The King’s Speech win the Oscar? 3. What does the traditional way of Hollywood mean? 4.Which is more important to a good movie, famous actor or the theme the movie includes? 5. What is the passage mainly about?
