任务型阅读。     An earthquake can often cause damage. And although not all earthquakes are severe(严重), they
help people to be aware of the proper way to prepare for such an event. Your level of preparation can
directly affect your chance of survival.
If you are outdoors, find an open area free of trees and tall buildings. If you are driving when an
earthquake hits, slow down and stop in a clear place and stay in your car. Do not park near buildings
or under bridges.
     If you are indoors, you must protect yourself from falling objects by finding a safe place in your
home and protecting your body as much as possible. If you are in bed when the shaking starts, cover
your head with a pillow. Also, you should fasten all possible objects to a wall, paying special attention
to tall furniture. This will reduce the chance of the objects falling on top of someone and causing injury.
A good way to protect yourself from possible falling debris(碎片)during an earthquake is to hide under
something. This most often means a heavy table or desk which is large enough. It is important for you
to know these areas before an earthquake. Make sure that all the family members know the best place
to hide themselves in each area of the house.
     If you live in the place where earthquakes are possible, make sure you have ways to tell your family
members your condition. All family members and friends should know how to get in touch with you after
an earthquake. This will stop many people worrying about you and trying to get through to you after such
a disaster. It is especially important for families with young children to practice what to do in an earthquake. Make sure your family has a plan of action, and decide a meeting place to go to after the earthquake.
In an earthquake which causes great damage, it is important to have items on hand, water, food, medicine, a flashlight and so on. It is also wise to be prepared by taking a first-aid class to learn something useful
for a possible disaster.

to the harsh conditions.

阅读表达
    阅读下面的短文,根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的词数要求)
     An American friend of mine who was high up in a big corporation had worked out a way of handling
a flood of e-mails before most of us had even heard of the concept. If any information he was sent was
vital enough, his lack of response would ensure the sender rang him up. If the sender wasn"t important
enough to have his private number, the communication couldn"t be that important, My friend is now even
more senior in the same company, so the strategy must work.    
     Almost every week now, there seems to be a report suggesting that we are all being driven crazy by
the bother of e-mail. If this is the case, it"s only because we haven"t devel-oped an appropriate
discrimination in dealing with it.      
              Firstly, you junk anything with an exclamation mark or a string of capital letters,or from any
address you don"t recognize or feel confident about.    
     Secondly, e-mails don"t all have to be answered. Because e-mailing is so easy, there"s a tendency for
correspondence to carry on for ever, but it is permissible to stop an endless dis-cussion or to accept a
point of information sent by a colleague without acknowledging it.    
     Thirdly, a reply e-mail doesn"t have to be the samelength as the original. We all have e-mail pals who
send long, chatty e-mails, which are nice to receive, but who then expect an equally long reply. Then
charm of e-mail can consist in the simple, incomplete sentence, totally regardless of the format of the
letter sent by post. You are perfectly within the bounds of politeness in responding to a marathon e-mail
with a brief reply.
    
1. Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?      
The possible existence of annoyance results from our inability to sort out e-mails.      
________________________________________________________      
________________________________________________________    
2. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with a proper sentence.(within 10 words)        
______________________________________________________    
3. What advice is given in the last paragraph?  (within l0 words)        
______________________________________________________    
4. For what purpose does the author mention his American friend in Paragraph l? (within 10 words)       
 ______________________________________________________    
5. Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.        
_____________________________________________________
