Do you feel comfortable when cold winter comes? Many say they feel uncomfortable in very cold weather. But you should feel lucky yourself because you don’t live in Siberia (西伯利亚).

In many places in Siberia, the winter is always very long and it’s very, very cold! It starts to snow in November and the snow won’t leave until May. The temperature is usually about -25℃, but it’s sometimes much colder than that. When it’s -35℃, children can’t go to school, but grown-ups still go to work! And in some areas, the temperature can drop to -70℃. In spring and summer it is often cloudy and it often rains a lot, and people don’t often see the sun.

You may think there is nothing but ice and snow in Siberia. In fact, many people live there and there are lots of forests. Many tall trees grow there. People living there wear a lot of warm clothes. All the houses have heating, so it’s never cold inside. In winter, people close the window from getting in, and they don’t open them again before spring come.

A．Be happy. B．Be excited. C．Be lucky. D．Be unlucky.

What are you going to do if you are in a burning house? How will you escape? Do you know how to save yourself? Please read the following passage.

Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save your life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as stairways and fire escapes, but not lifts.

From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possible. Learn the best way of leaving by windows 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 six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to slay in a burning building.

Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed, or 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 (渗) into the room.

On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are these which open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement (水泥)might end with injury. Bushes and grass can help to break a fall.

49．It is more important to ________.

A．put out the fire in the burning house B．know the ways to escape the fire

C．jump off a burning house D．keep the door closed

50．It is possible to escape through the windows ________.

A．if you have a long rope

B．if you are strong enough

C．if you live on a lower floor

D．if there are some bushes on the ground

51．Which of the following escaping ways is NOT right?

A．You can escape through stairways.

B．You can choose fire escapes.

C．Escape from the windows which open onto a roof.

D．Use a lift to come down at once.

52．Keep your head low at the window so that ________ if the building is on fire.

A．you can get fresh air B．you can call for help

C．you can easily jump off D．you can be seen first

53．The best title of the passage is ________.

A．Escaping from the Windows B．Save Yourself in the Burning House

C．Knowledge on Fire D．Waiting for Help

四、阅读判断(共5分)

Do you dream of having a sister or brother? According to the recent CCTV news report, China has relaxed its one-child policy (政策) to two-child policy.  The government has allowed families to have two children.

Tencent did a survey last week about the two-child policy. On the one hand, up to 53% of parents say they are willing to have a second child. “I am excited about hearing the news. To have two kids means the children can look after each other in the future. Not only can they have a partner to play with, but they can also learn to help one another. This helps them to develop a better personality. I think l won't miss the chance to own a second kid,” says Li Mei, a mother of a 5-year-old daughter from Shanghai.

On the other hand, about 40% of parents say they may not have a second child. One reason is that they are afraid that the child's everyday expenses (费用) and education would be a big problem. They couldn't afford them. “I think the policy itself is pretty good, but I don't think it interests me. 1 won't consider a second child. Everything is very expensive at present, and I find it very difficult to raise another child,” says Han Dong from Chongqing, who has just had a boy.

Though people have different opinions, they agree that China has made great progress already in the two-child policy.

91．Last Saturday we had no lessons. My friends and I decided to help the farmers pick the apples. They were very busy. Li Hong and I climbed up a big apple tree. There were a lot of apples on it. After a short time we picked a lot of apples. Xiao Zhuan couldn’t get the apples because they were too high. Li Lei carried a ladder for her. Soon we picked many baskets of apples and the trucks arrived. We all got down and helped to carry the apples onto the trucks. These trucks would carry the apples to the cities and change back much money for the farmers. The farmers had a harvest time!
