阅读理解。     Going to a friend"s house is very exciting. You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he
lives. So remember to be polite.
     When to arrive
     The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over, you need to arrive on time. If your
friend tells you to come "around 3:00", that means you can turn up a little bit after 3:00. But usually it is a
good idea to arrive at the right time.
     What to bring
     Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend"s house. This could be a box of chocolates for
you two to share, or maybe a movie that you can watch together. You can also bring some flowers. A
little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house.
     How to greet
     When you visit your friend"s house, you may also meet his parents. You should tell them who you are
and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I called his parents by their
first names John and Mary. But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr. or Mrs. Smith. This will
show them more respect and then they may tell you to call them by their first names. Another way to
show respect is to call them Madam or Sir.
     It is a cool thing to visit a friend"s house. Be polite to your friend and your friend"s parents, and you
will be invited again! 1. If you are told to get to your friend"s house around 5:00 p.m., it is polite to arrive at _____ p.m.

[ ]

A. 5:02
B. 4:50
C. 4:30
D. 5:30 2. The passage mainly tells us _____.

[ ]

A. when to arrive at your friend"s house

C. what to bring to your friend
D. how to be a good visitor 3. The passage may be from _____.

阅读短文内容，完成下列各题。      Journalists are the people who collect information about what"s happening and tell the public through
television, radio, newspapers, magazines or the Internet.
     A journalist"s life is not as great as people think. Most journalists spend a lot of time reporting boring
stories. One of the exciting things about being a journalist is that journalists can suddenly find themselves
in the middle of exciting events. Their task is to collect facts and try to tell all sides of a story. This includes
interviewing people, getting materials, asking for experts and so on. After collecting information, reporters
organize their information and write it down. After they have finished writing, they give their work to editors
who review their stories and give advice.
     The journalists" job allows for a great deal of freedom. Although they make most of their interviews by
phone, and some even by e-mail, they are also often out in the street, talking to people. Their job is full of
changes, and journalists find themselves always in different places from one day to the next. On the other
hand, reporting is also a job that can influence your life. When an important thing happens on a weekend,
they will have to come into work and follow the story until it comes to an end. What do journalists have to do before we can read or watch their work?

阅读理解。     People know the dangers of fires. It"s good for a family to learn how to prepare for a fire. Here are
some suggestions:
    ● put a smoke alarm in the house. Smoke from a fire causes the alarm to go off. The alarm makes
        a loud sound. The sound tells everyone to leave the house at once.
    ● Make escape plans. They should know all the ways out of the house. If there is a fire, everyone
         follows the plan to go out. Part of the plan is to check all the windows to make sure they can be
         opened easily.
    ● Put the extingushers (灭火器) in the house. Practise for a fire. They do fire pratice because they
        teach childen about fire safety. Every-one in the family should know the following fire rules.
    ● Don"t open a hot door! The fire can grow more quickly if you open the door.
   ● Stay close to the door! Smoke can be more dangerous than fire. The best air is near the floor because
         smoke rises.
   ● What will you do if your hair or clothes start to burn? First, stop! Don"t run! The fire burns faster
         because of more air. Drop! Fall to the floor! Rolling over and over will make the fire go out. Put a
         wet blanket (毯子) around you to keep air away from the fire that may still be on you.
   ● There are many possible causes for fires. A wise family is ready all the time.If there is a fire, don"t
