turn to adults for information，comfort and help.Parents should try to remain calm，answer children's questions honestly and remain understanding when they see changes in their children's behavior.‎ Children react differently to an earthquake depending on their ages, ‎ ‎ developmental levels and former experiences.Some will respond by withdrawing (不与人交往)，while others will have angry outbursts (爆发)．Parents should remain sensitive to each child's reactions.Parents should spend time talking to their children, letting them know that it's OK to ask questions and to share their worries.Although it may be hard to find time to have these talks, parents can use regular family mealtimes or bedtimes for them.They should answer questions briefly and honestly and be sure to ask their children for their opinions and ideas.Issues may come up more than once and parents should remain patient when you answer the questions again.For young children, parents, after talking about the earthquake，might read a favorite story or have a relaxing family activity to help them calm down.Parents should also tell children they are safe and spend extra time with them.They could play games outside or read

the terrible earthquake.She was covered by a destroyed house.Through gaps (缝隙) of those ruins，the rescuers could see her last posture (姿势)．It was something like an ancient person who was kowtowing (叩头)，but it just looked strange because she was out of shape by pressure.‎ The rescuers confirmed her death by touching her through the gaps of the ruins.They shouted at the ruins again and again, knocked the bricks using various tools，but no reply inside.‎ Then the rescuing team went to the next building.Suddenly the leader ran back, calling “Come here.”He came to the body，put his hands under the woman，feeling and touching, then shouted loudly and gladly，“There is someone, a baby，still living.”‎ Through some efforts, rescuers cleaned up the ruins which blocked her.Under her body lay her baby, who was covered by a small red quilt (棉被)．He was about 3 or 4 months old.Since well protected by his mother's body, he was safe.He was in a deep sleep when the rescuer carried him out, and his lovely and peaceful face warmed everyone around him.The doctor, along with the rescuing team, took the baby out of the quilt to check if the baby was all right, and he found there was a mobile phone in the quilt.The doctor looked at the screen；a written message was already there：“My dear baby, if you could live, don't forget how much I love you.”As a doctor，he experienced much of this type of separation; but at this moment，he cried.The mobile phone was passed, and every person who saw this message shed (流出) tears.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文是一个感人的故事。在地震发生时，‎ 一位母亲用自己的身体保护了熟睡中的孩子，而自己却遇难了。赞扬了地震中伟大的母爱。‎

need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or 1 and so on.Why？Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.‎ In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. 2 When you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health.When you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you.When you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. 3 All these are your happiness.If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.‎ Happiness is not the same as money.It is a feeling of your heart.When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money. 4 ，because you have more chances to challenge yourself.So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck.As the saying goes，“Life is like a revolving (旋转的) door.When it closes, it also opens.” 5 ‎ A．When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you.‎ B．If you take every chance you get, you can be a

is standing by the gate?‎ ‎4．我抬头看我的朋友，他脸上的表情是兴奋的。‎ I looked up at my friend whose look on the face was excited．‎ ‎5．尊重别人的人才能得到别人的尊重。‎ Those who show respects always gain respects from others.‎ Ⅱ.阅读理解 Earthquakes strike suddenly at any time of the day or night, but there's no way to tell when.If an earthquake happens, it may cause many deaths and injuries and damage.So you need a good preparation ahead of time.Decide how and where your family will get together if separated.Choose an outofstate friend or relative that the family members can call after the quake to report where they are and how they are.Know the safe places in each room：under the strong tables，desks，or against inside walls.Keep enough food，water and other things，including a flashlight，a radio，medicines and clothing.‎ During the earthquake，you should keep a clear head and never be too nervous to know what to do.Protect your head and neck with your arms.If possible, take a book, a pillow or any other things to protect yourself from falling glass and ruins.If you are indoors, you must immediately lie under any strong furniture.If outdoors，move to an open area away from trees，buildings, walls and power poles.If you are in a narrow valley, move to the centre of it and look up for falling stones.If you are in a car, move to the side of the road and stop the car.Do not stop near buildings，power lines or on or under bridges.Stay in your car until the shaking stops.‎ Do not move a badly injured person unless he is in great danger after the earthquake.Do not use the telephone immediately unless there is a serious injury or fire.Turn on your radio for instructions and news reports.Be prepared for aftershocks.If you want to leave your home，post a message inside your home telling your family members where you can be found.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文主要讲述了人们在地震前、地震中和地震后应该做的事情。‎ ‎1．To prepare for an earthquake，we should make sure of ．‎ A．when an earthquake may happen B．the place where we can find our family C．how to receive
