三、阅读理解（共10小题，每小题2分，共20分)
A
We should all have at least one fire extinguisher(灭火器) somewhere in our house or office building. However, it s not enough to simply keep an extinguisher somewhere. The best way to be ready for a fire is to study this guide carefully and go over it often.
(1) Have a clear exit(出口)route(路线)
Before operating(操作) the fire extinguisher, make sure you have a clear exit route. If you cannot put out the fire, you will need to make a safe exit. Also, make sure everyone else is out.
(2) Call the fire department(消防部门)
Even if the fire seems manageable, you should always have the fire department on the way. Once the firemen arrive, they can double-check to see if the fire has been completely put out.
(3) Operate the extinguisher
It can be difficult to think clearly during a fire. One method to help you remember how to operate an extinguisher is to remember the four steps of "PASS" progress.
●P—Pull. ●A—Aim(瞄准). ●S—Squeeze. ●S—Sweep.
(4) Keep an eye on things
After the fire seems to be out, continue to watch the fire area to make sure it doesn t start burning again. If the fire does start up again, repeat the "PASS" process.
(5) Get to a safe place
Once the fire is out, or if you are unable to put it out, leave the scene. Find a place out of reach of the fire.
( )21.By writing this guide, the writer mainly wants to ________.
A. show us how to prevent a fire
B. tell us what to do when there is a fire
C. teach us how to use a fire extinguisher
D. share with us his experience of putting out a fire
( )22.The following pictures show the four steps of the "PASS" process. Which is their CORRECT order
A. ①②③④ B. ④①③② C. ②③④① D. ④②①③
( )23.Who may be the most interested in reading the passage
A. A student interested in the machine design.
B. A student hoping to know about survival skills.
C. A teacher interested in environmental protection.
D. A student knowing nothing about the danger of fire.
B
Some people love working out Maths problems, but more people feel nervous when they have to deal with, and many students have this “Maths anxiety (焦虑)”.
The problem really starts in childhood. Research has found that if Maths teachers are nervous about teaching the subject, they can pass on their anxiety to students. And it is more possible for girls to be influenced（被影响）. The programme for International Student Assessment found about 31% of the students aged 15 to 16 across 34 countries said they were nervous when doing Maths homework.
Shulamit Kahn, a woman from Boston University, believes giving students good role models is important, especially women, to teach children Maths.
Writing for BBC Future, David Robson, an expert, says, “It's not clear why Maths makes more fear than other subjects like Geography. But the Maths answer is either right or wrong. There's no room for bluffing(唬弄). Students are easily worried. They might think they can't do well. And if we think we're not Maths people, we avoid solving the problems that we probably could do.”
The reasons for Maths anxiety may be different, but someone thinks showing your fears bravely can be helpful. We can also help children to see a Maths test as a challenge, not a threat（威胁）. More importantly, we need to think positively about Maths and give it a second chance.
( ) 24. How does the writer show the result(结果) of the programme in Paragraph 2
A. By telling stories. B. By asking questions.
C. By listing numbers. D. By giving examples.
( )25. What can we learn from the passage
A. David thinks people are more worried about Geography than Maths.
B. Over half of the students arc nervous when doing Maths homework.
C. People can surely solve Maths problems if they think they are Maths people.
D. Students may worry about Maths if their teachers are nervous about teaching Maths.
( )26. What is the passage mainly about
A. What Maths anxiety is and when it starts.
B. Why people have Maths anxiety and how to deal with it.
C. Why Maths is important to people and how to learn it well.
D. How to be a Maths person and be good at dealing with numbers.

Make a homework plan
Most middle school students have two or three hours of homework a night. If it is a heavy homework day, you may need to spend even more time.(32) , especially if you are going to do sport or other activities after school.
Watch where you work
A bedroom, a study or any room where you can get away from noise is good for you to do your homework. (33) . Otherwise, you might fall asleep there.
Take a break
(34) . So it may be helpful to take some breaks while you are doing your homework. Sitting for to long without relaxing will make you less productive（多产的）than if you stop to take a break regularly. Taking a l0-minute break every hour is a good way for most people.
Get help when you need it
