Cars are lots of fun, but they could also be dangerous. We have to be careful when we drive them or ride in them.
It’s always a good idea to put on your seat belt (安全帶) when you’re in a car. Why? Think about this example: You put an egg on a skateboard and give it a push. If the skateboard hits a stone, it will stop, but the egg won’t. It will fly through the air, hit the ground and break.
Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a stone, the egg won’t go flying; it will stay safely on the skateboard.
Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts in 1849.
Air bags are also very important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn’t enough. If the car is going really fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear them. Most new cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something, its air bags will come out quickly in less than one second to keep the people inside safe.
小題1:The passage mainly tells us ______.
A．two important ways to keep safe in cars
B．how air bags work to make cars safe
C．how seat belts work to make cars safe
D．why we must tie the egg to the skateboard
小題2: The writer gives the example of the egg to ______.
A．tell us that eggs are easy to break
B．show how to wear a seat belt
C．show why it’s important to wear a seat belt in a car
D．tell us what a skateboard is
小題3: Seat belts can make us safer because ______.
A．we are interested in them
B．they can stop us from hitting other cars
C．they can help us stay safely on the seats
D．they are made of strong materials
小題4: Air bags are important for cars because ______.
A．they are made of plastic
B．they can also help us to keep safe in a car
C．they can keep cars running slowly
D．they’re put in front of and next to the seats
小題5: Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?
A．When a car hits something, its air bags will come out a few minutes later.
B．It won’t be dangerous if there are seat belts or air bags in a car.
C．Now most of new cars still have only one air bag.
D．Volvo was the first to use seat belts.

小題1:A
小題2:C
小題3:C
小題4:B
小題5:D

People who speak or perform before the public sometimes may suffer from "Stage Fright". Stage fright makes a person   1 .

She offers them ways to control the fear. One way is to smile before going onto the stage. Taking two deep breaths   6  helps. Deep breathing helps you get control of your body.
Miss Nichols advises her patients to tell themselves that their speech or performance does not have to be perfect. It's   7  to make a mistake. She tells them they should not be too nervous while they are performing. It is important that they should continue to perform while she is helping them.

Miss Nichols says the aim is only to  10  stage fright, not to smooth it away completely. This is because a little stage fright makes a person more careful, and improves the performance.

Once a baby cries, the parents will go to see what happened as soon as possible. According to a new study, a baby’s cry can make adults react very quickly, even if they are not related(相關(guān)的).
Oxford University researchers used a game called Whack-a-mole for the study. The game needs people to hit one buttons(按鈕). The players must react as quickly as they can to hit the button that lights up at random(隨機的). It is a game that requires speed and accuracy(準(zhǔn)確度).
The study included 40 men and women volunteers aged 19 to 59. Some of them had sons or daughters but none had a baby at the time. They played whack-a-mole after listening to different sounds, including babies’ crying, the crying of adults in trouble and birds’ song that sounds like babies’ crying.
The volunteer’ scores  were higher after listening to the sound of crying babies. Men and women had similar scores. The results showed that a crying baby gets special attention.
“Few sounds make people react quite like the cry of a baby,” said Morten Kringelbach of Oxford’s psychiatry department, who led the study.
He added that a baby’s cry can increase adults’ heart rate and blood pressure. This is understandable, because in the course of human evolution(進化), taking care of babies has always been an important job for adults. When a baby is hungry or feeling bored or unwell, it will cry. As a result, human brains and bodies develop a special reaction to a baby’s cry.
小題1:According to the passage, how many volunteers took part in the study?
A．80B．40 C．19D．59
小題2:In the passage, the underlined word react means__________.
A．表演B．打擊C．反應(yīng)D．演示
小題3:The game “whack-a-mole” shows__________.
A．a(chǎn) baby’s cry can get special attention from adults
B．men and women have different reaction speed and accuracy
C．a(chǎn)dults without babies react more quickly to a baby’s cry
D．women react to a baby’s cry more quickly than men
小題4:According to the passage, a baby’s cry__________.
A．can get the same attention from adults as the birds’ song
B．is the noisiest sound
C．can increase adults’ heart rate and blood pressure
D．is good for its health
小題5:From the last paragraph, we learn that_________.
A．taking care of the younger babies was the most important thing in the past
B．human brains and bodies have developed to take care of babies
C．baby cries are a good way make adults react quickly
D．baby cries have developed a lot during the course of human evolution
