So, as middle school students, it is very important for us to learn what to do when a fire breaks out. Here are some tips, and please keep in mind.Put a smoke alarm in the house. Smoke from a fire causes the alarm to go off. The alarm makes a loud sound. The sound tells us to leave the house at once.Make escape plans. We should know all the ways out of the house. If there is a fire, everyone follows the plan to get out. Part of the plan is to check all the windows to make sure they can be opened easily.Prepare fire extinguishers (灭火器) in the house. Everyone in the family should know how to use them. Practice for a fire. We should do fire practice because they teach us about fire safety. Everyone should know the following fire rules: Dont open a hot door! The fire can grow more quickly if you open the door. Stay close to the floor! Smoke can be more dangerous than fire. The best air is near the floor because smoke rises. What will you do if your hair or clothes start to burn? First, stop! Dont run! The fire burns faster because of more air. Drop! Fall to the floor. Then roll! Turning over and over will make the fire go out. Put a blanket around you to keep air away from the fire that may still be on you.There are many possible causes for fires. A wise family is ready all the time. If there is a fire, dont forget to call 119 for help.（1）When a smoke alarm rings at a house, it means that _.A . you have to get upB . water is running to the floorC . something is burningD . someone breaks your window（2）We should do the following to prepare for a fire EXCEPT that _.A . we practise for a fireB . we make escape plansC . we have fire extinguishersD . we use electrical cookers（3）What does the underlined word escape in the 3rd paragraph mean?A . 逃离.B . 跳楼.C . 安全.D . 灭火.（4）When your hair or clothes catch fire, the right steps are _.A . stop, run, roll B . stop, drop, rollC . run, drop, rollD . roll, drop, stop13. （8分）根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。April will bring a new product the Apple Watch into the market. Last week, the watch was firstly introduced by Tim Cook, Apples CEO. The price of the watch is from $349 to $1,099, depending on its size and whether it is a sports or regular one. Apple engineers and designers have put in a lot of thought and hard work into creating this small screen on your wrist. The sensor(传感器)on the screen not only finds your finger, but also knows the difference between when you are tapping(轻触), and when you are pressing harder.The watch also has haptic feedback(触觉反馈). You can send personal messages to your friend such as drawing a star or a special sign with your fingers, or tapping the watch, say 3 times, and your friend will receive those taps on their wrist.Besides telling the time, the watch will use Bluetooth to connect with your iPhone and show calls or text messages that come in.According to Tim Cook, the watch may open up a whole new area of applications（应用） that we had never thought of. Some car factories like BMW have developed an app that allows its car owners to open their cars with the watch. A Hotels app may allow you to open the door to your hotel room without worrying about losing the smart-card. And finally, even at the airportpassengers may be able to simply wave their wrist to check into their flight.The biggest use of the watch, however, is as your personal fitness coach. The watch can show your pulse (heartbeat) using a sensor at the bottom of the watch. It also has the same sensor as your iPhone, so it knows when you are moving, and also how much you are walking or running. It will remind you if you have been sitting for too long without taking exercise.（1）We can learn from the passage that the Apple Watch. A . is designed by Tim CookB . was brought into the market last weekC . sells at different prices for different colorsD . will come into the market this coming April.（2）With apple watch, you can _. A . develop your own personal appB . connect your iPhone with your iPadC . receive personal messages from your friends iPhoneD . send personal messages to your friends apple watches（3）Many businesses help push for the uses of apple watch EXCEPT _.
