2．Hello．I'm Jan from Mrs．Lake's class．My class wants to work together to help the public．We think we have found a great way to do this．Last month we did a class project on the highways near our town．We learned about the Adopt-a-Highway Program．This program brings people together to pick up litter along the roads．We think it would be a great idea for all students in our school to join the program and adopt a highway．
Adopting a highway is not like adopting a pet．When a highway is adopted，only part of the highway is cared for by a group of people．The group agrees to work every week to keep its part of the highway clean．Each group gets its own sign that has the name of the group printed on it．The sign is put up at the side of the road．This sign lets drivers know who is keeping that area of the road clean．
The Adopt-a-Highway Program is a great way for people to help their environment look nicer．Also，the government does not have to send out as many road workers．This saves money．Finally，people may try harder to keep roads clean if they see people，especially teenagers like us，cleaning them up．
We will need helpers to care for our adopted highway．If you want to feel great and keep our roads clean，please come with your parents to the meeting next week．We will meet in Mrs．Lake'room on Wednesday at 6：00P．M．At the meeting，we will talk about which roads are the dirtiest as a result of people's unkind acts．Then we'll try to pick an area to adopt and clean．
I look forward to seeing you at the meeting．Remember to keep our roads clean!

29．What is the Adopt-a-Highway Program about？C
A．Giving names to the highways．
B．Drawing pictures of highways．
C．Picking up litter along the roads．
D．Putting up signs near the roads．
30．What should the students do first if they want to join the program？D
A．Pick a spot to care for．
B．Call Mrs．Lake next week．
C．Write a letter to their parents．
D．Go to a meeting on Wednesday．
31．What is the purpose of this speech？A
A．To encourage students to join the program．
B．To introduce the traffic system．
C．To show drivers how to drive safely．
D．To tell a story about adopting a pet．
32．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage？B
A．Adopt-a-Pet                    
B．Adopt-a-Highway
C．Ways to Protect the Environment   
D．Volunteers on Roads．

分析 本文介紹了一項青少年參與的環(huán)�；顒�"Adopt-a-Highway"，主要的目的是號召更多的人加入到"領(lǐng)養(yǎng)公路"的活動中來．

解答 29-32 CDAB
29．C  細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第一段中"This program brings people together to pick up litter along the roads．"可知"領(lǐng)養(yǎng)公路"活動的主要任務(wù)就是組織人們清理公路上的垃圾．故選C．
30．D  細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的句子"If you want to feel great and keep our roads clean，please come with your parents to the meeting next week．We will meet in Mrs．Lake's room on Wednesday at 6：00 P．M．"可知想加入的青少年應(yīng)先和家長一起參加下周三在Mrs．Lake家舉行的會議，會上將確定需要清理的路段，然后各組選擇一段開始清理．故選D．
31．A   推理判斷題．根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容及最后一段的I look forward to seeing you at the meeting．Remember to keep our roads clean!可推斷出，本文主要的目的是號召更多的人加入到"領(lǐng)養(yǎng)公路"的活動中來．故選A．
32．B   標題歸納題．由全文可知，本文介紹了一項青少年參與的環(huán)�；顒�"Adopt-a-Highway"．因此B項作為題目最合適．A 項與文章無關(guān)；C 項范圍過大；D 項偏離主題．

點評 做閱讀理解時要快速的瀏覽全文，把握文章主旨大意，帶著問題回到原文，尋找細節(jié)或概括相應(yīng)的答案，最后要理清作者寫作思路．

13．Any car accident is frightening，but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water，with you trapped inside，is absolutely terrifying．（32）DHowever，most deaths result from panic，without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water．By adopting a brace position （防沖擊姿勢），acting decisively and getting out fast，you can save yo urself from a sinking vehicle．
Brace yourself for impact．As soon as you're aware that you're going off the road and into a body of water，adopt a brace position．The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle，so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the"ten and two"position．
Undo your seatbelt．（33）FUnbuckle the children，starting with the oldest first．Forget the cellphone call．Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call．（34）ALeave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window．A car's electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water，so try the method of opening it electronically first．Many people don't think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking．
Break the window．If you aren't able to open the window，or it only opens halfway，you'll need to break it with an object or your foot．It may feel counter-intuitive （有悖常理的） to let water into the car．（35）GEscape when the car has equalized．If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced，you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival．（36）CWhile there is still air in the car，take slow，deep breaths and focus on what you're doing．
 
A．Open the window as soon as you hit the water．
B．Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think．
C．It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually．
D．Such accidents are particularly dangerous due to the risk of drowning．
E．In conclusion，if you know what to do in the water，you'll be safe．
F．This is the first thing to attend to，yet it often gets forgotten in the panic．
G．But the sooner the window is open，the sooner you can escape directly through it．

17．Swimming is one of those activities that can be learned early in life．Little children can learn to swim as soon as they walk．In fact，you need the same skills in walking as in swimming．However，I believe that five is the best age to learn．By five or six，a child knows fear of water，a very important thing to know．It's wise to be afraid，to recognize true danger．Young ones understand that the water can sometimes be very dangerous．
To really benefit from swimming，every swimmer should learn，as soon as possible，these four basic strokes（游泳姿勢）； butterfly，backstroke，Breaststroke，and crawl．I feel that one of these-the breaststroke-is different from the others，since some young swimmers use this stroke naturally，without any training．
In swimming there are certain rules every swimmer should follow：
1）．Never swim alone!No matter how good you are in the water，don't risk drowning（溺水，淹死） by swimming alone．If you swim by yourself，with no life guards or friends with you，you may get into trouble．
2）．Don't go beyond your abilities．Most swimmers know enough not to swim too far from the bank or the beach，Showing off by doing dangerous tricks is no good．Swim safely and you will continue to swim and alive．
3）．Don't smoke．Swimming depends on a healthy body； good lungs are part of it．
4）．Work at any activity that builds muscles．
21：Little children can learn to swim as soon asC．
A．they can talk
B．they have no fear of the water 
C．they start walking
D．they are five or six years old
22：The author believes that fear of water isD．
A．stupid            B．not smart        C．dangerous       D．sensible
23：The stroke that some young swimmers use first isA．
A．Breaststroke       B．backstroke      C．Butterfly        D．crawl
24：According to the passage，you should not swim alone becauseC．
A．the water is too cold
B．your parents would not be happy 
C．you might drown
D．something in the water might attack
25．Why the author suggest swimmers not smoke？A
A．Because smoking does harm to lungs．
B．Because they are not allowed to smoke．
C．Becau se smoking is a bad habit．
D．Because they may get into trouble．
