閱讀短文，按要求完成短文后的各項(xiàng)任務(wù)。
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 1or 2 gallons of water daily just for drinking. (1)So store        
       1 gallon of water per person every 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 (2) 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 (不易腐爛的) food on hand. Have an enough supply of canned food, powered milk, dried fruits, non-salted nuts and canned juices for at least 72 hours.
3. Flash light (手電筒) 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 there are 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.
小題1:在（1）句的空白處分別填入一個(gè)適當(dāng)?shù)脑~使句意完整、上下文通順。
小題2:將（2）句譯成中文。

Making sense of how the US shows humor
Living in a new country gives me many surprises. The first surprise was the way that the US people speak
One day I saw someone was having a public speech in a square. I thought it would be a serious speech. But I soon found it became a kind of entertainment show.
The speaker told the audience to protect the environment with humorous words. Later he said some people’s behavior didn’t go with their words. He took the example of Taylor Swift’s song We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.[
He said that since Swift doesn’t want to be with the boy any more, she doesn’t need to speak it aloud, she doesn’t need to sing unless she still keeps in touch with that guy. It sounds like she is a hypocrite.
Then he sang the song in a funny way. The audience laughed out loudly. I felt a little angry because Swift is my favourite star. I couldn’t understand why they laughed at Swift.
As time goes on, I find many US people make fun of others. But they don’t mean to hurt them. They do that to show closeness and humour. And people who are laughed at seldom get angry. Now I understand the speaker at the square. Now I’ve got used to the way the US people speak.
It’s easy to find culture shock when you’re in a new place. But everyone should learn to understand different cultures and customs. 
小題1:The man in the square was _______________.
A．teaching people how to give a speech
B．calling on people to protect the environment
C．giving a singing show in public
D．criticizing the US government
小題2:What does the underlined word “hypocrite” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A．會(huì)唱歌的人B．真誠(chéng)的人C．虛偽的人D．愛護(hù)環(huán)境的人
小題3:From Paragraph 6, we learn that_________________.
A．many US people like to laugh at others
B．many US people are friendly and humorous
C．the US people get angry at others easily
D．the writer doesn’t like the way the US people speak
小題4:Which is Not suitable for the passage?
A．The writer went to America and protect the environment.
B．Americans show humour in a different way from China.
C．It’s easy to find culture shock when you are in a new place.
D．Tailor Swift is an American famous singer.

Why play games? Because they are fun, and a lot more besides. Following the rules, planning your next move, acting as a team member------these are all “game” ideas that you will have throughout your life.
Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Some games are entertaining and fun. But perhaps more importantly, they translate life into exciting dreams that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and teamwork.
Many children’s games have a practical side. Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as adults. For example, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones. It can be very helpful to exercise their hands and eyes, which is needed in hunting.
Many sports encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games, bring athletes from around the world together to take part in the friendly competition. People who watch the event wave flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for a whole country, not just the athlete who has got it. For countries experiencing natural disasters or war, an Olympic win can mean so much.
Sports are also an event that brings people together. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. People on all continents play it------some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian soccer player, has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer. He set up an organization which can provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a hopeful future.
Next time, when you play your favorite game or sport, think about why you enjoy it, what skills are needed, and whether these skills will help you in your life.
小題1:The underlined part “translate life into exciting dreams” in Paragraph 2 most probably
means that games can ________.
A．describe life in an exciting way
B．turn real-life experiences into a play
C．change people’s views of sporting events
D．teach children something useful and important
小題2:What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A．The whole country.
B．The gold medal.
C．The event.
D．The game.
小題3:According to the passage, why is winning Olympic medals so encouraging?
A．It means a lot for a whole country.
B．It proves how excellent the winners are.
C．It helps the country out of natural disasters.
D．It brings the winners satisfaction and money.
小題4:Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．The most famous games are the Olympic Games.
B．People around the world play soccer just for fun.
C．The game called bones can be helpful to the Arabian children.
D．Nicolette Iribarne gives poor children a chance for a better life.

A change to its population policy(人口政策）for the world's most populated country(人口最多的國(guó)家), that is where we start this new week on CNN (美國(guó)有線新聞網(wǎng)絡(luò)，以提供即時(shí)電視新聞報(bào)導(dǎo)而聞名)STUDENT NEWS.
China introduced(提出） its so-called one-child policy(獨(dú)生子女政策） in the late 1970s. It's been believed to help control China's population growth(控制人口增長(zhǎng)). It's also been against for forcing(強(qiáng)迫) parents to make difficult personal choices(選擇）, or in some cases（某些情況） face huge fines（面臨巨額罰款).
The policy said that in big cities or towns, parents could only have one child, although（盡管) there were some exceptions(例外), for example, the famous director Zhang Yimou, who was ordered to pay the heavy fines for his three children.
The new rule(法規(guī)) says that if either parent(父母親一方) is an only child, then they are able to have two children of their own.
One reason for the change is economics(經(jīng)濟(jì)).
In China, many people care for their elderly relatives, so a single(單個(gè)的) child could not afford (能做)to look after his parents and grandparents. This new policy could help with that.
Another reason, China says it wants to improve human rights(改善人權(quán)).
小題1:Which may be the best title of the article?___________.
A．The one-child policyB．The population policy
C．The human rightsD．China's population growth
小題2:Where can you get this news _______.
A．on TVB．from your booksC．from a magazineD．in the newspaper
小題3:Which of the following is not true?
A．China is the world's most populated country.
B．The one-child policy did help control China's population growth.
C．All the families in big cities only have one child.
D．There is a change to China’s population policy.
小題4:We can infer(推斷）from the article that the next paragraph（段落) is about ___________.
A．the population growthB．the population policy
C．the economic changeD．the human rights
