Schools in Cleveland, Ohio used to start the school year on the day after the first Monday in September, but in the 19761977 and 19771978 academic years, the school year was affected by several bad snowstorms, extreme cold. In the 19781979 school year, the Ohio Department of Education moved the start of the year to late August, one week before the first Monday in September. This went into effect in the 19801981 school year. In American high schools, the freshmen class usually goes back one or two days before the rest of the school body for an orientation(迎新)period. An orientation period helps the freshmen get familiar with their new school, its rules, and surroundings.

Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. When there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly and not on you. During an earthquake, lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases at all times. If trapped in debris (瓦礫堆), cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or the wall so that rescuers (營救人員) can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if one is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself. Do not move about or kick up dust.（1）The purpose of the passage is to tell readers . to do in earthquakes to prevent earthquakes damage caused by earthquakes rescue work after earthquakes（2）The underlined word Fragile in Paragraph 2 probably means . shelter under a tree to a safe place quickly out of the building at once off electricity and gas immediately【答案】 （1）A（2）C（3）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇議論文，作者對于如何在地震中保護(hù)自己和家人這一問題，給出了一些簡單的安全技巧。根據(jù)第一段中的“So it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.”因此，學(xué)習(xí)一些簡單的安全技巧來保護(hù)自己和家人是明智的。故選A。根據(jù)第二段中的“l(fā)ike those made of glass are easily broken and should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them in the cupboards higher up.”像那些玻璃做的容易破碎，通常應(yīng)放在較低的表面，接近地面，而不是把它們放在較高的碗柜。故選C。根據(jù)第三段中的“Make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.”當(dāng)?shù)卣鸢l(fā)生時，一定要立即切斷電源和煤氣。故選D。6．閱讀理解 Consider the negative effects of not sharing a story in the news: People are wondering if public health officials are holding back too much information about the recent outbreak of Ebola. There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our story: they often show our weaknesses or expose our disadvantages。 and of course, there are some stories that should be kept secret—especially those that embarrass someone else. Honesty and openness is important: It proves we are trustworthy. It displays we are human. We are not perfect or better. It highlights the importance of hard work and personal development. Hard work may not allow us to overe our disadvantage
