Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save yourself. It is important to know the ways you can use and to show them to everyone in the family, such as stairways(楼梯) and fire escapes, but not lifts.

Passage 4

The word “day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year, we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But w hen we talk about day and night, we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning(旋转) of the earth.

At the equator day and night are sometimes the same length. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole(北极) is tilted(倾斜) toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球) gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemis phere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.

A. the time between sunrise and sunset B. 12 hours

Passage 5  阅读短文，回答问题。

Over a year ago, Liang Bo was just an ordinary college student studying music. Now, after nearly 80 days of competition, he has become “The Voice of China.”

The lucky young man was the winner of the first season of The Voice of China, the most popular TV talent show last summer. He captured(虏获) the hearts of audience(观众) with his passionate(激情的) rock’n’roll performance at the show’s final on Sep.30, 2012.

Fans describe Li ang’s voi ce as “natural, clear and touching.” Although he seems cool on stage, he can quickly turn on the power once he starts singing. “His performances make you imagine things. When I listen to his singing, I see pictures and think of stories.” said Na Ying, one of the four judges on the show. She was also Liang’s tutor for the competition.

The 21-year-old boy was born in Changchun, Jilin. Like many young Chinese, he fell in love with music through playing the guitar. Liang got his first guitar as a birthday gift when he was in the middle school. He would spend days and nights practicing. “I can’t live without my guitar,” he said.

“I d on’t like talking much but I carry great passion inside me.” Liang said. There is no better way to let it out than through music like rock’n’roll. Many compare Liang to famous Chinese rockers including Xu Wei, Wang Feng and Zheng Jun. But the young man doesn’t want to stand in others’ shadow(阴影). “I respect those rockers, but I’m not going to copy them. I will be who I am.” he said.

86. What was Liang Bo before the competition?

87. How many judges are there in the TV talent show?

88. Does Liang Bo come from Changchun?

Passage 6  阅读短文，填写表格，每空一词。

In common with many countries, Britain has serious environmental problems. In 1952, more than 4,000 people died in London because of the smog. The government introduced new laws to stop smog from coal fires and factories and the situation improved a lot.

Today, London is much cleaner but there is a new problem: smog from cars. In December 1991, there was very little wind in London and pollution increased a lot. As a result, about 160 people died from pollution in just four days.

Part of the problem is the new “out of town” shopping centers. In the past, people often walked to shops near their home or went by bus. Now, many people drive to the new shopping centers. As a result, the small shops have disappeared and more people have to travel to do their shopping.

Critics(评论员) say that Britain needs better and cheaper public transport. Transport in Britain is very expensive. An early morning train trip from Glasgow to London (about 600km) can cost about 100 pounds, for example. A short 15-minute bus trip can cost over 1.00 pound.

Many people are trying to reduce the use of cars in Britain. Some cities now have special bicycle paths and many people cycle to work. Some people  also travel to work together in one car to  reduce the pollution and the cost.
