2019年中考英语阅读理解习题（二）Passage A（2019中考选练）A serious earthquake can be a terrible experience, and it is easy to forget safety measures(措施) in disorder(混乱). Fortunately, most earthquake safety measures are common sense, but if you forget everything else, remember the following instructions: drop, cover, and hold on. Also, most of earthquake deaths happen after the earthquake, so remember that the danger does not end when the shaking does! If you stay indoors during an earthquake, move away from unsupported areas and windows. Try to get under a doorway or another area of the building which is held up by strong beams(梁). Stay under a table or desk only if it is very strong. Do not rush to lifts, because it is far safer to stay where you are. Cover your head with your arms around it and curl(蜷缩) into a ball, and wait for the shaking to stop. If you stay outdoors during an earthquake, move to an area which is as open as possible. Dont move to buildings, electric poles and other objects which may fall during an earthquake and injure you. Protect your head and stay low to the ground till the shaking ends and it is safe to move. After an earthquake, many buildings are less strong, although they appear safe. If you stay indoors, move people from the building quickly and help disabled or injured people. Once outdoors, move well away from the building so that if it falls down, you will not be injured. Wait till public safety officials announce that it is safe to stay indoors. By planning ahead and keeping calm during an earthquake, you can greatly increase your chances of survival(生存) without injury. ( ) 1.The underlined word “Fortunately” in the first paragraph means_ . A. especially B. gradually C. luckily D. finally ( ) 2.We can learn from the passage that earthquake safety measures_ .

He always wore white linen(被单). His underwear, night clothes and shirts were all in white, and so were his suits, coats and hats. He became so famous for his clothes and his love for white that he was known all over Ireland as “Linen Cook”. He refused to have any brown cows in the field of his farm at Cappoquin and even his horses had to be the same pure white as his clothes. Cook was an eager vegetarian（素食者） and refused to eat the flesh of any animal or to wear anything produced by an animal. A fox which attacked (袭击) his chickens was not killed when it was caught. Instead, he gave it a talk on the evils (罪恶) of murder, then offered it a sporting chance by making it run through a line of his farm workers, who had sticks. Cook had a long and healthy life and showed that “water for drink, vegetables for food and linen and other plant life for clothing were enough to live on.” He died in 1726 when he was over eighty years old and was buried in a white linen shroud (寿衣).根据短文内容选择最佳答案（ ）46.

But the computer is placed in Sunnyside, about 80 kilometers away. What the scientists input is sent by telephone lines to the computer, and after a time, copies of the designs（设计）are needed back in Felton as quickly as possible. Lockheed people tried several ways of sending the prints（印刷品）, but the most effective seems to be by pigeon（鸽子）.Are pigeons really used to carry messages in these days? They are ,and they send the prints faster and cheaper than any other way. Human messengers (persons carrying messages) are much more expensive and slower than the pigeons. The road to Felton goes through the mountains, and the driving is not easy. An electronic printout system（电子印刷系统）could do the work in Felton, but at a cost of 10 dollars a print. Pigeons carry the designs for about 1 dollar each
