【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

Any car accident is frightening, but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water, with you trapped inside, is absolutely terrifying. 【1】 However, most deaths result from panic, without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water. By adopting a brace(支撐) position, acting decisively and getting out fast,you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.

Brace yourself for impact(撞擊力).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. 2 Unbuckle the children,starting with the oldest first. Forget the cell phone call. Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call.

3 Leave 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 counterintuitive(有悖常理的) to let water into the car. 4

Escape when the car has equalized. If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filld with water and it has become balanced,you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival. 5 While 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 to the risk of drowning.

E.In conclusion,if you know what to do in the water,you will 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.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】F

【3】A

【4】G

【5】C

【解析】

試題分析:本文為說明文,主要介紹了當遇到汽車掉入水中時,人們應(yīng)該如何應(yīng)對。

【1】D空格前的“an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water”與D項中的“Such accidents”對應(yīng),而空格處句子與空格后一句為轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,故選擇D項。

【2】F空格前句“Undo your seatbelt.”與F項中的“This is the first thing to attend to”對應(yīng),故選擇F項。

【3】A根據(jù)本段中的“concentrate on the window”和“Many people don't think about the window as an escape option either because of panic...”可知選擇A項。

【4】G首先空格前句與空格處為轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,本段仍舊圍繞“window”進行闡述,G項所表達的意思為打開窗戶逃生,與本段主旨一致,故選擇G項。

【5】C空格前的“car cabin has been filled with water”與C項中的“fill up with water”對應(yīng),而C項所表達的意思也與空格后的“While there is still air in the car”相關(guān)聯(lián),故此題選擇C項。

【題目】When you tidy your messy bedroom, it gets a lot easier to find things. Dreams may work the same way for a messy brain, helping you learn by organizing memories and ideas.

To test how much dreams can help learning, Robert Stickgold had some students play a shape-fitting game called Tetris (餓羅斯方塊) for a few hours and then go to sleep. Soon they were dreaming of falling Tetris shapes. Interestingly, the worst Tetris players had the most Tetris dreams and improved their game the most. Similar tests have shown the same results for all kinds of skills.

As we dream, many important tasks are getting done. The brain decides what to keep and what to forget. It is connecting new experiences to older learning. In fact, the brain is learning all night long.

Another important task of dreams may be to help us deal with emotions(情緒). At night, emotions are in the driver's seat. People who have had an upsetting experience often dream about it afterward. Often the dream event changes somehow--another way the brain tries to make the memory less upset. So if your best friend moves away, you might dream that you're the one who's moving. In fact, dreams have a proven power to improve mood, and people who dream about what's bothering them usually feel better sooner than those who don't.

Everybody dreams for a couple of hours every night--in the course of your life, you'll spend about 25 years asleep and 6 years dreaming. There's probably no single answer to the question why we dream, but there doesn't have to be. One dream might help you remember your math facts, while another might lead to a new invention, or give you a fun, crazy story to tell your friends. It's all in a night's work for our busy, mysterious brains.

【1】Robert Stickgold's test shows that________.

A. games are useful for memory

B. tasks can only be settled through dreams

C. players stop learning in dreams

D. dreams can help improve skills

【2】We can learn from Paragraph 4 that_______ .

A. dreams can get rid of sufferings

B. only drivers can deal with emotions

C. one may be less upset after a dream

D. dreams can copy what one experienced

【3】Which of the following does the author probably agree with?

A. Dreaming does harm to one's mood.

B. Dreaming affects the quality of sleep.

C. It's not so important to know the cause of dreaming.

D. It's hard to find out the secrets of dreaming.

【4】What does the text focus on?

A. Dreams and memories. B. The patterns of dreams.

C. Dreams and emotions. D. The benefits of dreams.
