三、阅读理解 (共5题；共39分)
12. （6分） Stay as safe as possible during an earthquake. Be aware that some earthquakes are actually foreshocks(前震) and a larger earthquake might occur. Reduce your movements to a few steps to a nearby safe place.
If yo u are indoors, do “duck, cover and hold”. Duck or drop down to the floor, under something strong, such as a table or a desk, cover your head and face with your arms and hands and hold on to that table or desk so that it does not move away from you as the ground shakes. Do this until the shaking stops and it is safe to move. Stay inside to avoid being injured by falling glass or building parts. If there isn’t a table or desk near you, cover your face and head with your arms and crouch(蜷缩) in an inside corner of the building.
Stay clear of windows, fireplaces, and heavy furniture that may fall over. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries occur when people inside buildings attempt to move to a different location inside the building or try to leave.
If you are outside, get into the open and stay there. Move away from trees, buildings, signs and power lines. Once in the open, stay there until the shaking stops. The greatest danger exists directly outside buildings, at exits and alongside exterior walls. Ground movement during an earthquake is seldom the direct cause of death or injury. Most earthquake-related casualties（伤亡） result from collapsing walls, flying glass, and falling objects.
If you are driving, you may not realize what is going on at first because the car may feel like it is going to blow up. Stop the car in as clear and open an area as possible and stay in it until the shaking stops. If it is a really bad quake, turn on the radio to find an emergency channel to get information. Follow the directions of people directing traffic.
If you are in a mountainous area, watch out for falling rock and other debris that could be loosened by the earthquake.
If you are at the beach, move quickly to higher ground or several hundred yards inland.
（1）Which of the following pictures means “duck, cover and hold”?
A .
B .
C .
D .
（2）Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
A . Ground movement during an earthquake is the main reason of death.
B . You should keep your windows, fireplaces and heavy furniture clear.
C . Stop your car in the clear area and get out of it if an earthquake happens.
D . Run away from the beach as quickly as possible if an earthquake happens.
（3）The passage is mainly about ___________during the earthquake.
A . ways of keeping you safe
B . the importance of keeping safe
C . ways of finding safe places
D . researches on how to keep safe

15. （8分）根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
According to a recent newspaper article, girls do better than boys at every level of education. So it is hardly surprising that boys are now far more likely（可能的） than girls to go to universities.
"Eclipsed" (黯然失色)
Mary Curnock Cook, a leader of the University, is so worried about the future of boys that she wants to see a national effort to solve the problem. If this difference goes on growing, girls born this year will be 75% more likely to go to university than boys.
So what is at the root of this gap（差距）? Are there changes in the nature of universities which have led to the dominance of girls on campus? Are girls simply better at schoolwork these days, and boys less interested?
By the time teenagers get to their high school, the number of girls is bigger. So before they sit a single exam, there are probably more girls than boys who are likely to go to university.
"Waste of time?"
The average grade for a girl is C+ compared to C for a boy at A-level examinations. But the differences between boys and girls start much earlier on.
According to a University of Bristol study, boys are nearly twice as likely as girls to have fallen behind by the time they start school. Primary schools often have more female teachers, and mothers helping
out.
According to the study, girls and boys often have different attitudes towards schoolwork. The report says: "Boys are more likely than girls to regard school as a waste of time." What's more, boys tend （倾向） to spend over one hour less per week on homework than girls. They are more likely to play computer games and less likely to read outside of school.
"There are a lot of boys thinking they can get away with the least work and wanting to spend their time doing other 'more interesting things'," says Roger Leighton, the former head teacher of Sydney Russell School. "Girls, on the other hand, tend to understand the need to work hard earlier on --- they take a longer view."
（1）Mary Curnock Cook wants to __________.
A . find out the cause for the difference
B . find out the number of girls on campus
C . see boys work harder than they used to
D . see people work together on the problem
（2）The underlined word "dominance" in Paragraph 4 probably refer to "_________".
A . achievement in schoolwork
B . position of advantage
C . progress in subjects
D . control of attention
（3）What can we learn from the passage?
A . Boy do better at some levels of education.
B . There are changes in the nature of universities.
C . Girls spend more time on schoolwork than boys.
D . Boys and girls perform similarly in primary school.
（4）Which of the following is probably the best title for the passage?
A . Which is more attractive to students?
B . What do girls understand better than boys?
C . Why do more girls than boys go to university?
D . Who is more likely to do a better job in universities?

Men ha ve always wondered about the earth they live on and about the ①_____ above them.
When early men looked at the night sky, they asked themselves a lot of questions. They looked at the moon, and wondered what this strange bright object in the sky was. They did not understand why it changed its shape from night to night. They looked at the stars and planets. They also wondered why some of them changed their positions, while others did not.
②他们也思考地球的形状。 Most early people believed the earth was flat.
③In differen t parts of the world, there were different ideas about the universe. The ancient Greeks were the first people to study the universe(宇宙) more scientifically. In the sixth century BC Pythagoras put forward the idea that the world was round. However, he could not explain why people at the bottom of the world did not fall off.
It was not until the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries that scientists found the answers to some important questions. ④With the help of Galileo's telescope, people could see the sky mor e clearly, and find the positions of the stars and planets. Finally in 1665, Isaac Newton explained to the world what gravity (重力) was and people at last understood why they did not fall off the earth.
