It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone else in the family, such as stairways and emergency exits, but not elevators.‎ From the lower floors of buildings, escape through windows is possible. Learn the best way to get out from a window with the least chance of serious injury.‎ The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person, hanging by the fingertips will have a drop of about 6 feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way down than to stay in a burning building.‎ Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door ‎ closed before opening the window. Otherwise, smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may have leaked into the room.‎ On the second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those which open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement might end in injury. Bushes and trees can help you to have a soft landing.‎ ‎4.Which of the following should not be used when trying to escape from a fire?‎ A.window B. elevators C. fire exits D. stairways ‎5. How far from the ground is the second floor window?‎ ‎ A. about 12 feet B. about 6 feet ‎ C. about the height of an average man D. nearly 10 feet ‎6.

Nowadays, you can shop for just about anything from your armchair. Shopping on the Internet is becoming increasingly popular.‎ ‎ People can shop for a variety of products on the Internet. Physical products include items such as books, CDs, clothes and foods. These types of products are the most common purchases through the Internet. To find something on the Internet, people often use powerful computer tools called “search engines”. You can search for a type of product such as sports shoes, or a brand name, such as Nike. The search engine will give you a list of websites where you can find these products. These websites may ‎ be specialist shops such as a Nike shop, or they may be general stores, called malls, which sell a variety of goods.‎ ‎ Internet shopping offers a number of benefits for the shopper. The most important advantage is convenience. As the on-line shops are open 24 hours a day, you do not have to queue with other shoppers at the check-out counters. Secondly, it is easy to find what you are looking for. Finally, it is often cheaper to buy goods through the Internet.‎ ‎ The main disadvantage of Internet shopping is that you cannot actually see the products you are buying or check their quality. Also, many people enjoy shopping in the city and miss the opportunity to talk to friends. Some people are worried about paying for goods using credit cards, so Internet companies are now finding ways to make on-line payment safe.‎ Internet shopping is sure to become more and more popular in the years ahead. It promises to change the way we buy all kinds of thing-from tonight's dinner to a new car.‎ 8. The first paragraph indicates (表明) that         .‎ ‎ A. there are many problems with online shopping ‎ B. online shopping is becoming very popular ‎ C. people hate online shopping in cities ‎ D. it is very inconvenient for online shopping ‎9. From the second paragraph, we know the underlined word “malls” means        .‎ ‎ A. stores where we can buy famous brand products ‎ B. places where people can receive better service ‎ C. specialist shops ‎ D. stores which sell many kinds of goods ‎10. Internet shopping can offer shoppers the following benefits EXCEPT            .‎ ‎ A. online payment safety B. the speed the goods are delivered at ‎ C. the reasonable price D. the convenience it brings to you ‎11. According to the passage, we can infer that        .‎ ‎ A. since it is not safe to pay online, Internet shopping will disappear in the years ahead ‎ B. it will become the only way we buy things in the years ahead ‎ C. there is no disadvantage of Internet shopping ‎ D. it’ll change the way we buy things ‎ D ‎ They hide in trees, hang from helicopters, even follow people down on motorcycles—all so that they can snap a shot of a celebrity. They are paparazzi—photographers who make a living by taking pictures of the rich and famous.‎ This September, California, a state with plenty of celebrities, passed a law aimed at taking action against paparazzi. The law forbids photographers from entering private property to take pictures, from using high-tech devices to take pictures of people on private property, and from “persistently following in order to take a picture.” Violators can be fined or spend time in prison. The United State Congress is considering passing a similar law.‎ Supporters of the California law say it will protect the privacy of celebrities, whom paparazzi have been bothering for years. Opponents (反对者) say the law restricts photojournalists from doing their job.‎ Most celebrities seem to like having their pictures taken when they are in public at award shows or other events. After all, it’s free publicity. But when they’re not in public, they say, photographers should leave them alone. Yet paparazzi have been known to secretly look in windows and worse. Actor Michael J. Fox said that paparazzi have even “tried to pretend to be medical personnel at the hospital where my wife was giving birth to our son.”‎ Celebrities have as much right to their privacy as anyone else, supporters of the law state. Supporters further argue that the California law is a fair way to keep the press at bay, because the law still allows photographers to do their job. It only punishes them, supporters say, when they violate celebrities’ privacy.‎ Opponents of the law say it violates the First Amendment to the United States Constitution (美国宪法第一修正案), which guarantees that no laws will be made to limit “the freedom of speech, or of the press.” Although some people might not consider paparazzi a part of the legal press, the California law does not single out paparazzi. It applies to photographers working for any publication.‎ Opponents of the law are also concerned about its wording. “Does ‘persistently’ mean following someone for six minutes, six seconds, or six days?” asked lawyer Douglas Mirell. The wording of the law is too vague, critics complain, and could be used to punish almost any news photographer.‎ The United States needs a free press to keep the public informed about important news, paparazzi law opponents say. Limiting the press in any way, they argue, limits the freedom of all.‎ ‎12. Which of the following will be considered illegal by the new California law?‎ A. Paparazzi slipping into the house of a famous person to take a shot.‎ B. Paparazzi taking photos of famous people with high-tech cameras.‎ C. Paparazzi hiring helicopters as a fast means of transportation.‎ D. Paparazzi rushing towards filming sites on motorcycles.‎ ‎13. Supporters of the new law believe that ________.‎ A. it prevents the media from getting worse B. it gives photographers a fair way to compete C. punishment forces paparazzi to quit their job D. privacy of famous people needs special protection ‎14. Opponents of the new law are concerned that _________.‎ A. it will violate paparazzi’s privacy B. the First Amendment will be changed C. some photographers will be wrongly accused D. people will not be informed of important news ‎15. What is the author’s attitude towards the new California law?‎ A. Critical. B. Neutral. C. Approving. D. Skeptical. ‎ 第二节 （共5小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎ English is not easy to learn——most common verbs are irregular and it has a large vocabulary—at least 200, 000 words. 16 ‎ However, verbs are less complicated (复杂的) than other languages and there is only one form to speak to someone directly—“you”.‎ ‎ 17 There are different versions of English in Africa, Asia and the Caribbean.‎ Most airlines and shipping companies use a simple form of English to make communication easier. 18 Eighty percent of the information on the Internet is in English.
