Because earthquakes happen without warning, it's important to take steps now to prepare. Because you don't know where you will be when an earthquake happens, prepare some supplies for your home, workplace, and car.
1. Water.
A person needs at least 1/2 gallon of water daily just for drinking. Store at least 1 gallon of water per person per day and be prepared for a 72-hour period. It is suggested that you buy bottled water. Keep bottled water in its original container and do not open it until you need to use it. Also, do check the “use by” date.
2. Food.
It's always a practical idea to keep a supply of non-perishable(不易腐烂的) food on hand. Have an enough supply of canned food, powdered milk, dried fruits, non-salted nuts and canned juices for at least 72 hours.
3. Flashlights(手电筒) and spare batteries.
Keep a flashlight beside your bed, at your place of work, and in your car. Do not use matches or candles after an earthquake until you are sure that no gas leaks.
Prepare a battery-powered radio and spare batteries. Most telephones will be out of order, so radios will be your best source of information.
4. Clothes.
If you live in a cold place, you must think about warmth. You might not have heat after an earthquake. Think about your clothing and bedding supplies.

（1）、Why should people prepare themselves for an earthquake?

A、Because earthquakes can be known before they happen. B、Because earthquakes take place without warning. C、Because earthquakes usually take place in the neighborhood. D、Because it's people's daily work to prepare the earthquakes.

A、A person should prepare 0.5 gallon of water for one day. B、You'd better use your own containers to keep water. C、You'd better open the bottled water when you buy it. D、You shouldn't open the bottled water until you need it.

A、powdered milk B、fresh vegetables C、dried fruits D、canned juices

（4）、According to the article we know that ______.

举一反三

Strong earthquakes hit the east of Japan in the afternoon of March 11, causing several meter-high tsunami(海啸), which killed more than 10,000 people in areas along the coast. Several nuclear plants(核电站) at the coast were broken by the earthquake and tsunami. People living near the plants have been asked to move away. People living within 30 kilometers of the first plant are asked to stay indoors and close all windows.
The breaking of the nuclear plants is causing electricity shortages(电力短缺) in Eastern Japan. As a result, electricity is cut off for 3-hour periods in the area of Tokyo and some other areas during daytime. In order to save electricity, some shops, restaurants and tourist places in the areas are closed for some time every day. But all major airports and train lines are still open and operating.
For the above reasons, tourists are advised not to visit the eastern areas in the near future. Visits to Western Japan are not affected by the event. People who plan to travel over the coming weeks and months are advised to pay attention to the situation for a few more days before making decisions.

Going to the zoo is very popular. Every year over 134 million visitors go to zoos to enjoy watching and learning about the animals. Zoos are the only places that most people will ever meet an elephant, a tiger or other animals that are in danger. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. They help us to enjoy different kinds of animals as well as make us think more about nature(自然).

Zoos are also important to animals. In order to make more space(空间), food, and other things for ourselves, we leave less and less room for animals. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. If there were no zoos, more animals in the world would have gone extinct(濒临灭绝). {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Some people think that animals should not be kept by people for any reason(原因). If they become extinct, then that's the way it should be. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. We should do everything we can to protect them(保护它们).
{#blank#}5{#/blank#} What's the best title of this passage?

A. The importance of the zoos.

B. Why do we keep animals?

C. Zoos or not?

D. How to protect animals.

Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.
If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering(不开花的) plants.
Flowering plants can make seeds(种子). The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit.
Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores(孢子). Spores are very, very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores fall on wet and shady(阴凉的) places, they usually grow into new plants.
