    Earthquakes can be very scary(吓人的). But you need to keep your mind stable (坚定的) in order to make sure you are safe. Be calm and try not to run here and there.
    If you manage to come out of your house, go to an open space like a garden or a park where you will be a lot safer. If you live quite some floors above in your building, try to find a place near a bulky(坚固的) object such as a bed. Curl up (蜷缩) and sit on the floor and make sure you are not near a window, fireplace, gas stove and so on. Remember don't use lifts or escalators.
    Some people say you should stand on a doorway. That is not true. If the doorway jambs (侧壁) are weak, they might fall on you. Also if people want to pass through that door, you may stop them. Leave all doorways free.
    Another important thing to keep in mind is that you mustn't climb down the stairs during an Earthquake. If the tremors (震动) stop, after a few seconds, just climb down the stairs as quickly as you can and move out of the building, but don't run.
    Earthquakes usually destroy gas pipes and electrical wires. Turn off the main gas. And don't light candles or lighters and create an even bigger disaster.
    If you're driving and feel a shake, stop your car at the side of the road and get out. Make sure you are not on a bridge. Bridges and overhead roads (高架路) have the biggest danger of falling.

(1)、  The best title for the passage should be       

A、Dos and Don'ts Before an Earthquake. B、What to Do in Case of Earthquake C、Tips for Earthquake Preventions D、Tips for Children in Earthquake.
(2)、 When an earthquake suddenly happens, you should .
a. remain standing near a window             b. turn off the main gas
c. stay in an open space                     d. stand on a doorway
e. keep off  overhead roads

A、a, b, c B、c, d, e C、b, c, e D、b, d, e
(3)、 Which of the following is NOT true, when an earthquake suddenly happens? 

A、We can't use the lift. B、Curling up may be very dangerous. C、We must turn off the gas. D、We must get out of the car when the earthquake comes
(4)、 It can be learned from the passage that     

A、keeping calm in time of earthquake is very important. B、measures should be taken to make buildings stronger. C、Knowledge of first aid must be used in an earthquake. D、lots of things must be done to survive an earthquake.

Even though African elephants are protected, many of them are still being killed for their ivory.

At the end of the 1970s, over 1.3 million elephants walked around Africa, but today, their numbers have fallen to around 450,000. This is mainly caused by illegal(非法的) hunting for ivory. Need for ivory in markets, especially in Asia and Africa, continues to push the illegal trade. This has resulted in the deaths of at least 20,000 African elephants each year.

Ivory, also known as "white gold", has long been considered valuable. Its unusual look has led to its use in lots of expensive things, including jewellery, musical instruments and art. And the ivory material itself can stand the test of time. So many people are willing to pay a high price for ivory products.

However, no matter how much real ivory is sold for, it's certainly not worth the harm to elephants. That's why some scientists are working to achieve the same beauty of ivory without killing any animals.

Thaddaa Rath and her team at the University of Vienna have created the ivory called "Digory". The high-tech ivory is made from synthetic resin(合成树脂) and calcium phosphate particles(磷酸钙颗粒). It's first formed into the shape by a 3D printer. And then it is color-matched and colored. Next, it is polished(抛光) to make it look like real natural ivory.

Although Digory looks so real that it is hard to tell it from real ivory, its chemical structure is completely different from that of the real one. Fritz Vollrath, a biologist who is against killing elephants for ivory, felt excited about the invention and spoke highly of it for the fact that Digory could save many elephants from risks. Scientists have made some achievements, but we still need to do more research to make sure that it is widely used. It's still hopeful that scientists can be able to protect African elephants by making high-tech materials to take the place of the real ivory.

 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

You love reading,but you've read all your books four times,and are tired of reading the same ones. You're planning to go to the library,but don't know what kind of books to get. With the right knowledge,it's easy to choose a good book!

Answer these questions first. What authors do you like?Research books by the authors you've enjoyed,and you can get more of the same type of books. What are your interests?Type your hobbies into your library catalog search. By doing this,you will find books that you might like. Is there a type of book you would like to try?If there is,search the book and read the summary. This will help you decide if the book is right for you. 

Search your house next. Often good books are quietly collecting dust in your own house. Maybe you forget about one,or someone who is living with you has a couple of good books. Also by searching your house,you can find some books that you can read,and they won't even cost you any money. 

Then,ask someone to recommend a good book. You can ask your older brother or sister,your mom,your dad,your best friend,or even your English teacher. Local bookstores often have wonderful recommendations. And when they get to know you,it's even better! You should ask people who like the same type of books,so that you can get books that match your need. 

 Join a book club,please. Being a book club member is often a way to experience new books with other members. Joining a book club or setting up a book club helps you know who else likes the same books as you,and you can read books that others have read and discuss them. 

Finally,read the first part of each book. Of course,if you have many books,this can be time-consuming. Reading the first part of a book can help you know what books and types of books that you like,and you won't have a hard time looking for books again.
