    根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

        It is impossible to know when you might find yourself lost in a forest. If you know what to do, you can survive in a forest without much trouble; but if you are not prepared, survival can be much less likely.

    Keep fear at bay

        It is completely natural to be afraid when you are faced with a survival situation. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} The more your fear overcomes you, the lower your chances are of survival, as your mind is going to become clouded and panic may set in.

    Stay warm

        Obviously, the low body temperature is one of the primary dangers you face when you must survive in the forest{#blank#}2{#/blank#} Never stop to sleep or quit moving around unless you have appropriate shelter.

    Know how to make a fire

        Obviously , if you have a lighter or matches, this is not a problem. But if not, you can attempt to use a dry narrow pointed stick and a dry flat piece of wood. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} This requires a great deal of work, but if done correctly, you will succeed.

    Make some shelter

        {#blank#}4{#/blank#} The easiest way to provide protection is to find a fallen tree and cover it with other branches and brush so that you can stay in the natural pit underneath the tree trunk.This is a very important aspect of being able to survive in the forest.

    Stay put unless you know exactly where you are

        If you can build a stable shelter and start a fire, you can survive in the forest for several days. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} If you know where you are, travel as far as possible during the day while making sure you stop long enough before dark so that you can build another shelter.

    A. Soon you will find that it's not that difficult to survive in the forest.

    B. However, if you are going to survive in the forest, you must keep your thoughts clear.

    C. Make as much friction(摩擦) as possible by rubbing the pointed stick along the flat piece.

    D. It is better to stay and wait for rescue.

    E. Under no circumstances should we fight with the wild animals.

    F. Caves and overhangs are perfect, but most likely you must build your own.

    根据短文内容,从下框的A~F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。

    A. The mistaken belief

    B. The need for tolerance

    C. Unpunctuality at dinners

    D. Punctuality and confidence

    E. Self-discipline and punctuality

    F. Avoid anxiety by being punctual

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

        There is the belief that, if you arrive at an appointment late, you will be considered important. This is a mistaken view. Being unpunctual, we are not respectful of others ; we are interfering (扰乱)with another man's time. We must realise that keeping appointments or being punctual is a contract that is silently agreed and we are expected to respect this contract. It is only natural that we lose faith, trust and confidence in a person who is tardy(延迟的).

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

        To be punctual one has to have self-discipline(自律), and the lack of it affects others. A school boy or girl is unpunctual because he or she does not have the necessary human virtue of self-discipline. It is also a mark of disrespect for a system or an institution. Unpunctual people seldom realise that their habit cause problems to others. A salesman who is not punctual may not make a sale if he arrives late for an appointment. If one is late for a job interview, it is not likely that he will get the job.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

        Being punctual, we can avoid anxiety. Imagine the anxiety if you do not want to be considered unpunctual. You will be anxious if you set out for a dinner late. The person who sets out late might be careless in driving. He will ignore traffic rules. A traffic jam, flat tyres, etc. can delay him further. Happy and calm is the man who takes all these possibilities into consideration and arrives at the appointment either early or on time.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

        Many of those who attend dinners are notorious (声名狼藉的)for unpunctuality. They ignore the appointed time and leave their homes only after the fixed time. They are indifferent to the inconvenience caused to others. If the self-centred guest arrives late, the nine others at the table set for ten will have to wait. The host is put in an unpleasant situation and this man seldom thinks of the inconvenience caused to all -the waiters, the management staff, etc. It is necessary for us to think of others and be considerate to them.

     {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

        However, we cannot always be intolerant (无法容忍的) of tardiness, for ordinary living requires some tolerance. There can be a busy executive who fights to keep to his schedule. Such a person may be forgiven if he is late, but not those who are deliberately late to create impression.

    In modern society, punctuality is a necessary virtue. It is a recognition of the importance of other people.
