After dinner, the family went down to the finished basement to relax except Charlottes father, Eric, who was in the garage to fix his truck.Around 8 pm, Charlotte decided to check on her dad. She walked through the kitchen. When she opened the side door to the garage, black smoke rose up into the kitchen. She could barely make out her father lying on his back, trapped under the truck. Hed removed the front passenger-side tyre and raised the truck on a jack(千斤顶). The truck had slipped off the jack, and now the whole weight of the wheel was on his chest and shoulders.Charlotte ran to the front of the truck and struggled to lift it. Eric was still conscious, and he yelled, “You got it! One more try!” She tried again and was able to tip the truck backward just enough for her to pull her dad by the shirt with both hands from under the truck.She dragged him across the garage and 20 feet down the driveway. Then she ran back to the garage, which had burst into flames. “I was afraid the car was going to explode,” says Charlotte, so she climbed into the truck, which faced forward, turned the key, and pressed the gas pedal(油门). The car slowly rolled out, the metal wheel scratching loudly against the concrete.Safely on the driveway, Charlotte stopped the truck and ran back to the basement. “Theres a fire! Everybody get out!” she yelled as she picked up her three-month-old niece and ran out. Outside, she handed the baby to her mom, and then ran around to the burning garage. She picked up a garden hose(水管) and sprayed the fire while calling 911.A few minutes later, firefighters and an ambulance arrived. Charlotte was treated for second-degree burns on both her feet and face. Her dad had injuries on his chest and shoulders, as well as minor burns on his face. The garage and the house were damaged but the family survived.The Heffelmires are staying in an apartment while their house is rebuilt. “Charlotte is a remarkable kid,” says her dad.

But we do know the importance of safety and preparation. The only way to be ready for the unexpected is to prepare ahead of time. Its especially important if you live in earthquake zones. So here are some important steps to build your own Earthquake Action Plan.1. Talk to your friends and families and decide on a place to meet if youre separated after an earthquake.2.

Inside, get under something heavy like a study table or against an inside wall and cover your head.b. Outside, stay away from buildings and get out into the open.c. In your car, stop and stay in your seat. If youre stopped near a building or under an overpass (天桥), try to safely move away from it.4. Store first-aid kits (急救箱) anywhere you spend a lot of time (house, car, workplace, etc.).5. Pack plenty of batteries, flashlights, and bottles of water to prepare for power outages and water shortages.6. Review your homes important systems (electrical, gas, water, etc.) and know how to operate them or shut them off in an emergency.Although theyre somewhat unusual, earthquakes are incredibly terrible, overwhelming, and unpredictable forces of nature. But with some knowledge and preparation, we can mitigate risks and do the best we can to keep ourselves and our families safe.28.

What can best take the place of the underlined word “mitigate”?A. Lower. B. Avoid. C. Stop. D. Treat.DMike Flint was Buffetts airplane pilot（飞行员）. Flint had also flown four US Presidents, so we can safely say he was good at his job. According to Flint, he was talking about his career（事业） priorities (优先事项) with Buffett when he asked him to go through a 3-step exercise.STEP 1: Write down his top 25 career goals（目标）. So, Flint took some time and wrote them down.STEP 2: Review his list and circle his top 5 goals. Again, Flint took some time, made his way through the list, and at last decided on his 5 most important goals.STEP 3: At this point, Flint had two lists. The 5 items he had circled were on List A and the 20 items he had not circled were on List B.Flint said that he would start working on his top 5 goals right away. And then Buffett asked him about the second list, “And what about the ones you didnt circle?”Flint replied, “Well, the top 5 are my primary focus (焦点), but the other 20 come in a close second. I still plan to give them my efforts.”Buffett said, “No. Youve got it wrong. Everything you didnt circle just became your Avoid-At-All-Cost list. These things get no efforts from you until youve succeeded with your top 5.”This is why Buffetts strategy (策略) is great. Items 6 through 25 are things you care about. So you cant help paying attention to them. And then you get 20 distractions (分心的事物) to stop you from focusing on（集中） your top 5 goals. Spending time on secondary priorities is the reason you have 20 half-finished goals instead of 5 completed ones. So force yourself to focus. The most dangerous distractions are the ones you love, but that dont love you back.32. What did Flint think of his items on List B?A. They were important too. B. They were much more difficult.C. They were not worth his effort. D. They were impossible goals to reach.33. What did Buffett suggest to Mike Flint?A. Giving up List B halfway.B. Choosing only one priority from the 25 items.C. Paying no attention to List B before finishing List A.D. Reviewing all the items and deciding on another top 5.34. According to Buffetts strategy, _.A. getting 20 half-finished goals is useful tooB. we should break away from distractions decidedlyC. its impossible for us to finish two tasks at a timeD. secondary priorities will prevent us from succeeding35. What can be the best title for the passage?A. List A or List B?B. How to choose your prioritiesC. The secret of Buffetts great successD. Avoid distractions to focus on your priorities第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Habits of Highly Successful StudentsNever Over-StudyWhen you spend too much time studying you will quickly lose focus and the time spent in studying will become junk time. You think youre studying but youre just sitting there re-reading the same sentence about 100 times and youre not getting anywhere. Instead, take regular breaks. 36 Besides, it will give your mind some time to take in what you have been doing.37Top students dont just randomly（随意地）sit down and complete work. They actually plan what they are going to do: They actually plan the time they will study and they set goals for what will be achieved. If you want to be successful, do as successful people do. Set a plan and, set a goal and stick to it, which will create a routine and a routine is the first step towards developing a habit. 38Front Up To The Toughest（最难的） Work FirstMany of us like to do the easy things first to build our confidence. Thats fair enough. The only challenge with this approach（方法） is that you use up your primary energy at the start of any study period and so if you are dealing with the easy parts with your primary energy your batteries will be low when it comes the time to deal with the hard part. So what happens then? 39 We all do it. We really shouldnt, though. So develop the habit of giving your primary energy to the hard tasks and completing the easy stuff last.40Do we really have to explain this? Just turn them off for an hour, we promise the world will still be there when you log back in! Dont text your friends, dont chat while doing memory activities，dont make phone calls, just focus on what youre doing. Even if you focus on work for 15 minutes followed by 5 minutes of chatting, its better than 30 minutes of work while also chatting! You get that right?A. Taking breaks can make you get everywhere.B. You get tired and impatient and just give up.C. Positive habits decide future success.D. Plan Your StudyE. Taking breaks will make you energetic again and refresh your mind.F. Get Off Social Networking Sites And Turn Off The PhoneG. Achieve Your Goal第三部分 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）阅读下面短文，从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Many Tuesday mornings I have coffee with my father.
