13.D

14.A

15.B这是一篇说明文。文章作者对于地震来临时，人们应该怎么办，给出了一些安全方面的建议。【12题详解】推理判断题。答案定位在第一段Soitiswisetolearnsomesimplesafetytipstoprotectyourselforyourfamilymembers.可知作者写这篇文章的目的是告诉读者，遇到地震该怎么办，故选D。【13题详解】词意猜测题。根据likethosemadeofglassshouldusuallybeplacedonalowersurface,nearthegroundinsteadofplacingthemoncupboardshigherup.（像容易碎的玻璃制品，通常应放在较低的表面，靠近地面，而不是放在较高的橱柜上。）由此推断出“Fragile”意思是易碎的，故选D。【14题详解】细节理解题。答案定位在第三段Makesureyouturnoffelectricalconnectionsandgasimmediatelywhenanearthquakehappens.可知在地震中，人们被建议立即关掉电和煤气，故选A。【15题详解】推理判断题。答案定位在最后一段Donotlightamatchbecauseyoumayburnyourself.（不要点燃火柴，因为你可能会把自己烧着。）由此推断出被困在废墟中时，人们不应该点火求救，故选B。23.
