When playing sports, you should know the rules to avoid injuries. For example, in soccer, you should go after the ball rather than the player. This way, you won’t hurt others.‎ ‎ What do other countries do to keep students safe? Japan At public elementary schools in Japan, earthquake drills (演习) are held once a month. They teach students safety tips during an earthquake. Regular training helps students escape from earthquake-stricken areas without causing any stampedes (踩踏). Australia Most students in Australia take first-aid courses at school. They learn basic first-aid knowledge in the class, such as how to call an ambulance (救护车) and what to do when someone is hurt. The government is trying to make all kids take such courses. US Most US school buildings have fire escapes (火灾逃生口). A fire escape has platforms with stairs and ladders at each storey of a building. They are usually made of steel and built outside the building. People can get to the fire escape through a fire exit door or a window. It is not a good idea to jump out of a window from higher than two storeys. You may hurt yourself. 42. If there is a fire, the students should . A. jump out of the window no matter where they are B. stay in the classroom and close the door C. get to the fire escape through a fire exit door or a window D. push others to go out quickly 43.

Only a few students in Australia can learn basic first-aid knowledge in the class. C. Regular earthquake training can help keep students safe during an earthquake. D. It’s a good idea to jump out of a window from the third floor to escape from the fire. 45. The passage is mainly talking about .‎ A. what the danger is B. earthquake drills C. first-aid knowledge D. different ways to keep students safe C As the weather gets warmer, there are few things that are better to do than travel. But traveling might not be that fun for everyone, especially for those who have motion sickness (晕动症).‎ Motion sickness is also called travel sickness. It is a common experience for many people. Depending on how you travel, it can be called carsickness or seasickness. People with motion sickness feel very uncomfortable while they are in motion (在移动中). They feel sick and dizzy, like the room around them won’t stop spinning.‎ It is generally believed that motion sickness happens when your senses become confused with each other, Scientific American reported.‎ We use different parts of our body to sense movement. Our eyes tell us if we are moving. The inner ears (内耳) contain a special liquid (液体) that helps us sense our direction and balance. Our muscles (肌肉) react to movement. ‎ When you move around, these body parts work well together. But when you are in a car or an airplane, they get confused. Your inner ear signals that you’re moving, but your eyes say ‎ you’re sitting still because you can’t see that you’re moving. This mismatch gives us motion sickness.‎ But some people are less sensitive to motion sickness. This may be because they have certain genes (基因) that prevent mismatching senses, Bethann Hromatka, a genetics expert from the US, told the Atlantic.‎ Although there are many ways to deal with motion sickness, scientists believe that the key is to simply try to adapt to it. For example, some astronauts do special exercises that give them mild (轻微的) motion sickness. After a week or two, the astronauts become used to it and don’t feel uncomfortable anymore, Sam Puma, a NASA flight doctor, told the BBC.‎ ‎46. What do we know about motion sickness?‎ A. It is called carsickness when you travel by car.‎ B. It happens to only a small number of people.‎ C. It can make traveling more fun.‎ D. It causes the room to spin continuously.‎ ‎47. What does the underlined word “dizzy” mean in Chinese?‎ ‎ A.昏睡的 B. 眩晕的 C. 呕吐的 D. 疼痛的 48. Why do some people have motion sickness?‎ ‎ A. Because their senses stop working.‎ ‎ B. Because they lose their sense of direction.‎ ‎ C. Because their eyes can’t see properly.‎ ‎ D. Because there is a mismatch among their senses.‎ ‎49. The astronauts are mentioned to show that _____. ‎ A. it is impossible for others to deal with motion sickness B. astronauts can easily adapt to motion sickness C. special exercises can help deal with motion sickness D. motion sickness has something to do with genes.‎ D In 1974, farmers in Xi’an, Shanxi, were digging wells. But to their surprise, they dug out an amazing discovery only five meters under the earth: the world-famous Terracotta Warriors(兵马俑）. ‎ The Terracotta Warriors are thousands of clay soldiers. 50._____. The most interesting part of them is that each one has a unique face. Depending on their clothes, hat and hair, they have different military ranks（军衔）. 51. _____.
