A
The building is shaking. A woman with a baby in her arms is trying to open the door,but
fails. Finding no way,she rushes into her bedroom and there they survive the earthquake.
In a factory building,as the workshop floor swings under the terrible shaking,the workers
run for safety. Some hide under the machines and survive,but others who try to run outside are
killed by the falling ceilings.
These scenes,played by actors and actresses,are from a film of science education Making a
Split Second Decision shown in 1998 on China Central TV in memory of Tangshan Earthquake.
By studying actual cases in the earthquake areas and scientific experiments,experts (专家)
find that buildings remain untouched for the first 12 seconds of an earthquake.
“In this short time,one has the best chance of surviving an earthquake by staying near the
inside walls,in bedrooms or under beds,”experts concluded in the film. “Earthquakes seem to
catch the lives of those who run,” said many survivors in the earthquake areas,describing how
their friends were killed on the doorways or along the stair steps as they tried to get out of the
building.
Their advice was proved in the film,“Take a hidingplace where you are rather than run,
unless you are sure you can reach a safe open place in ten seconds. ”
56. The word “survive” appears in the passage several times. It probably means “____” in
Chinese.

C. In a history book. D. In a poster.
B
Tony, a nineyearold kid, is sitting at his desk. Suddenly he wets(尿湿) his pants. He thinks
his heart is going to stop because he cannot probably know how this has happened. It has never
happened before. He knows the after effect(后果). When the boys find out, he will never hear the
end of it. When the girls find out, they'll never speak to him again as long as (只要) he lives.
Tony puts his head down and says to himself, “Oh, no. What can I do? I need help now!”
He looks up and notices the teacher coming, with a look in her eyes that says she has noticed
him.
As the teacher is walking to him, a classmate named Emily is carrying a glass that is full of
water. Emily falls down in front of the teacher and drops the glass of water in Tony's pants. Tony
seems to be angry, but all the while(始终) he is saying to himself, “Thank you, Dear! Thank
you, Dear!”
Now all of a sudden, instead of (代替) being the person that everyone laughs at, Tony is the
person of sympathy( 同 情 ). The person that everyone laughs at should be him, but now it is Emily.
She tries to help, but they tell her,“You've done enough. You're stupid(愚蠢的)!”
At the end of the day, as they are waiting for the bus, Tony walks over to Emily and says in
a low voice, “You did that on purpose(目的), didn't you?”

It was a dark night. I saw a glow (光) in my neighbour's kitchen. I thought he was having a
night meal so I went back to my bed.
Soon,there was a smell of burning (烧东西的焦煳味) in the air and I thought there was

Always Be Careful
As a middle school student, you should try to stay away from danger as the problem of
safety is becoming more and more serious.
After watching TV, you should turn it off in time. If you're at home alone, don't open the
door for strangers or invite friends that you have made online to your home. While you are at school, running after each other in the classroom can be dangerous. At the
same time, you should remember to protect yourself while doing sports.
Once you are in the street, traffic rules should be obeyed all the time. For example, never
listen to music while riding a bike. Besides, always pay attention to the traffic lights when
crossing the street.
If all these are kept in mind, you are sure to enjoy a much safer life.
