V、阅读理解(本大题共20小题，共40.0分)
A
Accidents happen almost every day. Some accidents are not serious and some are. We read about such accidents nearly every day in the newspapers. It is wrong for people to think that accidents take place only on the roads or highways, or even at work places. Home accidents are just common. Because very few home accidents are reported, people come to think that there are few accidents which happen at homes every day.
There have been many cases where people fall to their deaths from high rise flats. Children often fall over while coming down the stairs. Old people may slip (滑跤) on wet floors if they are not careful enough.
Nowadays there are a lot of modern electrical appliances (电器) such as rice cookers which make life easy for the modern housewives. However, these appliances can kill if they are not used in the proper way. Gas stoves (煤气灶) used for cooking are also dangerous if they are not properly used. They may cause burns or in more serious cases, even cause fires.
But all such accidents can be stopped if we are careful and follow simple rules of safety. For example，it is unwise for people to try repairing their own electrical appliances if they do not know how to repair them. It is safer to get them repaired by an electrician.
61.Accidents take place ________.
A.mostly in homes                        B.mostly on roads and highways
C.mostly in factories                     D.almost everywhere
62.Which of the following accidents may NOT happen at homes?
A.People may fall to deaths from high buildings.
B.People may be knocked down by cars on the roads.
C.Gas stoves may cause burns or even fires.
D.People may be killed by an electrical appliance.
63.People are advised ________.
A.to avoid using electrical appliances
B.to repair their own electrical appliances
C.not to repair their own electrical appliances
D.not to get their electrical appliances fixed
64.What does the underlined word “electrician” mean in the last paragraph?
A.The worker who can repair electrical appliances.
B.The doctor who can help patients.
C.The police who can give you some advice when you are in danger.
D.The person who can give first aid.
B
 Years ago I gave a speech called "Powerful Phrases for Positive People". These are very simple but powerful phrases that we all like to hear："I'm proud of you." "I believe in you." "I trust you." "I love you." "You can do it."
   With Thanksgiving Day approaching，we all should be focused on another one of these powerful phrases，in particular："I thank you." We can never wear out that phrase. It should always be on the tip of our tongue if we are truly grateful to others who help us each day and to God who has richly blessed us with more freedom than any country in history.
   Maybe we're so focused on ourselves and busy with our byes that we forget to give thanks. Or maybe it's because those of us in America have become satisfied with a level of luxury(奢华) beyond the imagination of much of the world's population.
   We tend to take our blessings for granted，like the story about a homeowner who hired a real－estate agent(房地产经纪人) to prepare an ad to sell his home. The homeowner was reading the ad in the paper about his home's many attractive features. He called the real－estate agent to say he no longer wished to sell. When asked what changed his mind，the homeowner said，"After reading your ad，I realized 1 already live in the house I always wanted to live in."
   In this season of Thanksgiving in particular，it's time to count our blessings and pull out that simple phrase，"I thank you."
65.Which of the phrases can be popular in the author's speech most probably？
A.I want to give up.                      B.You are the best one.
C.It's beyond my ability.                 D.It has nothing to do with me.
66.What does the author agree with according to the text？
A.Ask our friends for help though they are in trouble.
B.Doing something meaningful for our parents.
C.Expressing thanks to others who usually help us.
D.Waiting for God to help us when we are in trouble.
67.What can we learn from the story about the homeowner？
A.We should try our best to get more things.
B.We should feel satisfied with what we have.
C.We can make lots of friends as long as we treat them well.
D.We can do everything as long as we try our best.
68.What is the best title for the text？
A.Say thanks out                           B.Enjoy everything you have
C.Show respect to your parents            D.Buy something to express thanks

  What should you do if there's an earthquake at school? How can you protect yourself when you are caught in a stampede (踩踏)? March 25 this year provides you with a good chance to learn about safety.
   This day is called the National Day of Education on the Safety of Elementary and Middle School Students (NDESEMSS) (全国中小学生安全教育日). The theme of the day this year is to give students more knowledge about safety and make sure their lives safe.
   A survey done by the China Youth and Children Research Center showed that school accidents kill more elementary and middle school students than anything else. The main accidents come from stampedes, earthquakes, fires and sports injuries (伤害).
   What can we do to keep ourselves safe? Staying calm (镇静) is the first and most important rule when facing accidents. But different accidents have different self-protection advice.
   A stampede is possible anywhere. The larger a human crowd gets, the more likely stampedes become. When students around you begin to push. stand still and try to hold onto something, or stay in a corner until the crowd leaves. If you fall down in a moving crowd, cover your head with both hands. Lean to one side, curl up your body and bend your legs.
   Earthquakes are common natural disasters (灾难). When you feel the ground shake, crouch (蹲) down, take cover under a desk and hold on. You should stay indoors until the shaking stops. If you are outdoors, don't stay near buildings, trees or power lines.
   When there's a fire, follow the teachers' instructions, leave the classroom quickly and use a piece of cloth to cover your mouth and nose so that you don't breathe in smoke.
69.What should you do first when accidents happen according to this passage?
A.Run away.       B.Stand there.     C.Keep calm.      D.Cry loudly.
70.According to this passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A.Car accidents kill the most elementary and middle school students of all accidents.
B.When there's a fire, you shoul
