Almost all theme park accidents can be prevented.Here, based on coverage of theme park safety, are some tips to help you and your family stay safe on your next visit.
If you are visiting with a child, take a moment to explain the ride to them, and tell them what they should do.They are depending upon you to keep them safe.Set a good example for them by following the rules of the park, and make sure that they know you expect them to follow those rules, too.
Tell them to stay seated, to hold the grab bar or put their hands in the laps, and not to stick their knees and feet outside a ride vehicle.Make them look to you for the okay to get on or off a ride, too.And never put a crying child on a ride.If your child starts to cry, let others pass you in line until your child is calmed.Or, gently exit the queue and find something more relaxing to do. 
Young kids can’t keep an adult’s pace in a theme park.Let them take plenty of breaks.
“Kids get tired,” said TPI reader Matt Johnson, a father of four.“Tired kids make parents even more tired.And tired kids and parents may get hurt — physically and emotionally.” He advises that parents plan a mid-day break, perhaps a swim back at the hotel, to avoid mid-day heat and crowds.“You will see cranky families having a miserable time while you are refreshed and having a great evening.”
小题1:The second paragraph tells readers that ________.
A.children should be trained to be more independent
B.adults should tell children some safety rules firstly

小题2:Which of the following is NOT right for children who are taking the rides?

B.They are forbidden to put their knees or feet out.
C.They should ask adults’ permission first to get on a ride.
D.Without adults’ okay sign, children shouldn’t get off a ride.
小题3:If your child begins to cry just when he is going to take a ride, you should ________.
A.tell him to be relaxedB.make him share your interest
C.give up the present activityD.encourage him to be brave

Teaching my first child, Danae, to share her toys was the biggest challenge. To   36  this, we started inviting other children to play, which could help Danae discover that it’s   37  to share with others – a lesson I needed to   38  myself as well, as it   39 .
One evening Danac had   40 a friend, Natalie, to play with her. Their favorite was a children’s   41  game called Go Fish. That evening,   42  Natalie left, Danae came to me and said, “Mommy, I’d like to give these to Natalie tomorrow. They’re her favorites.”
She help up three cards from the Go Fish game. I tried to   43  that I didn’t want her to give them away because then our   44  wouldn’t be complete. “But I really want her to have them!” Danae   45 . I thought perhaps she didn’t understand that when she gave something away, it was gone   46 . So I tried again, saying, “  47  you give the cards to her, you can’t   48 them back tomorrow.”
A look of   49  came over Danae’s face. For a moment I was happy that she seemed to   50 . But then she smiled and said. “Well, that’s okay, I want her to have them anyway.”
What could I say to that? I sat   51  for a moment and then I realized I had been trying for so long to   52  her to share. Did it   53  that our Go Fish set would be   54 ? What mattered was that my daughter was learning the   55  of giving, that she was thinking about others instead of herself, and that she was trying to make her friends happy. Isn’t that what life is all about?

第三部分:阅读理解(第一节15小题,第二节5小题;每小题2分,共40分)
第一节:阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项
Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don"t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.
No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don"t get along well, which doesn"t mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away, then we feel very sad. We miss them much, but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again, and we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.
There"s more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people if those don"t have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares, if someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.
61. The first paragraph tells us __________.
A. none needs friends                      B. we always need friends around us

In our life, we have rarely expressed our gratitude to the one who"d lived those years with us.In fact, we don"t have to wait for anniversaries to thank the ones close to us —the ones so easily overlooked.If I have learned anything about giving thanks, it is this: give it now! While your feeling of appreciation is alive and sincere, act on it.Saying thanks is such an easy way to add to the world"s happiness.
Saying thanks not only brightens someone else"s world, it brightens yours.If you"re feeling left out, unloved or unappreciated, try reaching out to others.It may be just the medicine you need.
Of course, there are times when you can"t express gratitude immediately.In that case don"t let embarrassment sink you into silence —speak up the first time you have the chance.
Once a young minister.Mark Brian, was sent to a remote parish of Kwakiuti Indians in British Columbia.The Indians, he had been told, did not have a word for thank you.But Brian soon found that these people had exceptional generosity.Instead of saying thanks, it is their custom to return every favor with a favor of their own, and every kindness with an equal or superior kindness.They do their thanks.
I wonder if we had no words in our vocabulary for thank you, would we do a better job of communicating our gratitude? Would we be more responsive, more sensitive, more caring?
Thankfulness sets in motion a chain reaction that transforms people all around us—including ourselves.For no one ever misunderstands the melody of a grateful heart.Its message is universal; its lyrics transcend (超越) all earthly barriers; its music touches the heavens.
53.In the first paragraph the writer mainly encourages us      .
A.never to overlook our close friends in daily life
B.to express our sincere thanks timely to those around us
C.to wait for a proper occasion to show our thanks
D.to increase the world"s happiness by saying thanks
54.According to the writer,      could be the best way to prevent ourselves from being left out.
A.seeing a doctor to find the right medicine we need
B.expressing our thanks as much as we can
C.showing others actively we are interested in them
D.speaking up the moment we have the chance
55.Mark Brian"s story is mentioned in the passage in order to show the fact that       .
A.the Indians didn"t have any words for appreciation
B.the Indians were particularly generous to others
C.Mark Brian"s set the Indians an example to show thanks
D.some people may express their thanks through different approaches
56.What message does the writer intend to communicate in the last paragraph?
A.Thanks is of great importance in developing harmonious relationship.
B.One grateful heart is surely to deserve another good one in return.
C.Thankfulness which goes beyond all barriers is universally understood.
D.Human beings would misunderstand each other without appreciation.
