10．阅读理解

Emergencies（紧急情况）don't happen very often. But when they do, you want to get help first. No one wants to spend time looking up the phone numbers.

In 1968, the United States government agreed on one number that people could call for emergencies. They thought that 911 was easy to remember and people could dial it quickly. The first 911 call was made on February 16, 1968, in Alabama. Today, 911 is used for emergencies in most parts of the United States and many parts of Canada.

Other countries may use other numbers. In Great Britain, it's 999. If you're not sure which emergency number is used in your area, check your phone book.

When to call

Never call 911 as a joke or just to see what might happen. The only time you should call 911 is when a person is badly hurt or in danger at the moment! So call when there is a fire, a car accident, or sudden sickness, etc.

When in an emergency call

When you dial the 911 operator（接线员）, it' s always OK to give out your information. Speak slowly and clearly when you explain what's happening. What happened? Where are you? Who needs help?

Don' t hang up（挂断）!

If you have to call 911, do not hang up until the operator tells you it's

OK to do so. In this way, you can be sure that the operator has all the information to offer help fast.

A dog named Faith dialed 911 when her owner who was in a wheelchair fell and needed help. She had been taught to use a speed-dial（快速拨号） function.

（1）The emergency number 911 was first used in _______ in the USA.

A. 1958

B. 1968

C. 1978

D. 1999

（2）Why was 911 chosen to be the emergency call?

What can a poem writer and a film director share? More than you think! Langston Hughes began writing poems in high school and soon became one of America's greatest writers. Most of his writing is about his experiences as an African American. He wrote poems about people who worked hard through life but still found things to be happy about. He wrote plays and books about justice（正义）for all people, and he wrote kids' books too. The Sweet and Sour Animal Book is a book of his animal poems. Pictures and photos were used in the book. "Hold fast to dreams" is a line in Hughes' famous poem. That's exactly what he did throughout his life.

When Steven Spielberg was in middle school, he wanted to make a film. He had an idea for a film, but no money. He started a tree-planting business and made his film with the money he earned. Spielberg never stopped making films, even after many film schools refused him. Now he is one of the most popular and important filmmakers in the world. His films are about people who are adventurous（爱冒险的）, brave and kind. His characters often fight for what is good. Some of his films are about his Jewish background, such as Schindler's List. Spielberg once said, "I don't dream much at night because I dream for a living." In different ways, both Hughes and Spielberg have encouraged people of all ages to achieve their dreams.

Each day, students must take Science, Maths and English classes. They can also choose Art.

You may know about "junk food" like French fries. But do you know about "junk sleep"?

Almost a quarter of the kids said they fell asleep more than once a week while watching TV, listening to music or using other electronic products.

"This is very worrying." said Dr. Chris Idzikowski, "We call it "junk sleep". It means you don't get enough sleep and the quality（质量）of the sleep is bad, too. If you don't get good rest, you won't perform well in school the next day."

15．根据材料内容，选择正确答案。

C

Ted, my little brother, is in Grade One. Last Friday he came back from school with a letter. The letter was from his teacher. “I got a red flower today. Could you please sign this note?” he said to mum. The note showed that he had been talking in class.

Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work. The best he gets is “OK”, but he often gets “You can do better than this.” Mum knows what it means. She tells me “You can do better than this” means “Extremely bad” in China.

In the USA, teachers never say anything too bad about their students, even if the students are maki ng trouble in class or not working hard enough. The worst they might say is “Please be nicer tomorrow”. Many parents are satisfied with a B-grade for each subject.

But things in Chinese schools are quite different. Parents have high expectations for their children. I sometimes felt that my second-grade cousin spend more time on homework than I did when I was 6th grade in the US! Yet his parents and teachers didn't think he worked hard enough. Is it too strict in China? Or is it not strict enough in the USA? Maybe both are true.

（1）Why did Ted come home with a letter last Friday?

A. Because the teacher wanted to visit his mother.

B. Because he did something wrong.

C. Because the teacher was happy with his progress.

D. Because the teacher thought he was too lazy.

（2）If a student in the USA gets “OK” in his schoolwork, it means ________.

A. he gets top scores

B. he gets medium scores

C. he gets extremely bad scores

D. he gets the worst scores

（3）The underlined words “high expectations” in this passage means “________”.

A. 很高的待遇

B. 很多的自由

C. 很高的期望

D. 很多的关爱

（4）The writer mainly wants to tell us ________.

A. the differences between Chinese education and American education

B. Chinese students are better than American students

C. American parents are not strict enough with their children

D. what's the best way to educate child

【答案】（1）B

（2）B

（3）C

（4）A

【解析】【分析】本文通过自己的感受谈论中国教育与美国教育的不同。美国的教育依靠学生的自觉性与自主性。中国的家长对孩子的要求严格，并且学校给学生的作业量上也是较大的。

⑴推理判断。根据第一段最后一句he had been talking in class结合上文得知，他在学校做了错事，那就是在课堂乱说话。故选B

⑵推理判断。问题：如果一名美国的学生在学校评语中得到了一个“OK”，它的意思是什么？分析原句：Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work. The best he gets is "OK".句意：泰德几乎得不了很高的成绩在他的学校学习。他得到最好的评语是“OK”。联系下文，因为他的表现不好，所以他经常得到的是“你能做的比这次好。”因此体现当学生在学校成绩中等的时候，评语为OK.故选Ｂ。

⑶词义猜测。句意：但是，事情在中国的学校有很大的不同。父母对孩子有很高的期望。同时结合实际情况，中国的父母对孩子的期望很高。因此划线部分为很高有期望。故选C ⑷作者意图。根据最后一句Is it too strict in China? Or is it not strict enough in the USA? Maybe both are true.句意：中国的教育太严吗？还是美国的教育不严？可能两者都是真的。从中心句中得出结论，重点在介绍中国与美国的教育上有所不同。故选A

【点评】议论文阅读首先要弄清楚作者要证明什么观点，然后用什么样的论据进行怎样的分析，最后得出了什么样的结论，理清了线索，理解文章就不是问题。看题时注意确定关键词，然后在文章中定位，找到与选项一致的内容，就可以轻松的确定答案。
