                                                                    Pollution    
     Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. People didn"t have modern machines.
There was no modern medicine, either.     
     Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution (污染). Water pollution has
made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and polluted our drinking water. Noise pollution makes
us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It"s
bad to all living things in the world.     
     Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that
it is like a quilt over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog(烟雾).

is thrown away, they mustn"t blow dirty smoke into the air.

ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving,
there will be less pollution.

阅读理解。     When the earthquake hit Japan on March 11, 2011, workers in a supermarket in Japan didn"t run away
  when they felt the shaking. Instead, they held on to the shelves and tried to stop the goods from falling
 down.
     Reporters from NHK, the country"s largest TV station, stayed calm in front of cameras during the earth
 quake, even though some were facing real danger.
     The earthquake was the most powerful one to hit Japan in the country"s history. But Japan"s reaction to
  the earthquake has shown that it is the most earthquake-prepared (有准备的) country in the world. The
  calm that Japanese showed during and after the quake has impressed the world.
     This is because Japan has an earthquake culture. Japanese people are taught how to prepare for and
  react to an earthquake from a young age.
     One way kids learn about earthquake safety is from the cartoon character Maruko, a 9-year-old
 student. In Chibi Maruko-Chan (《樱桃小丸子》), Maruko has to wear a protective (防护的) hat in
 an earthquake practice. Schools in Japan organize earthquake practices every month. They make students
  become familiar (熟悉的) with being in an earthquake.
     Japan also has a good earthquake warning (警报) system. Warnings were broadcast on TV, the radio
  and cell phones eight seconds after experts first knew about the quake on March 11. The warning system
  is unable to predict an earthquake, but it can usually alert (提醒) people about 15 seconds before they
 feel the effects. Even 15 or 20 seconds can be enough to save people"s lives.1. When the big earthquake happened in Japan on March 11, ______.     A. people stayed calm
    B. people were too scared to move
    C. people ran outdoors in a hurry  
    D. people escaped from the country at once2. From this passage, we know that NHK is a _____ in Japan.     A. bus stop    
    B. TV station  
    C. famous movie  
    D. five-star restaurant  3. What does the underlined word "reaction" mean in Chinese?    A. 影像      
    B. 动作      
    C. 反应        
    D. 保护4. What can we learn from the passage?     A. Earthquake practices in Japan are very common.
    B. Japan has a warning system that can predict earthquakes.
    C. Few people were hurt during the Japan earthquake on March 11, 2011.
    D. Japanese kids learn about earthquake safety only from school earthquake practices. 5. Which is the BEST title for the passage?    A. How terrible the earthquake is
    B. Japan"s earthquake culture
    C. Japanese people are very brave
    D. The earthquakes can be predicted
