If you are lost in the mountains, stay c...

If you are lost in the mountains stay calm in the face of darkness loneliness and the unknown. It will greatly increase your chances of survival (生存). Many people think that preparing necessary equipment and knowing how to use it are very important but actually eighty percent of mountain survival is your reaction to fear.

Find a hiding place

Unnecessary labor will make you sweat and make you cold. Find a hiding place around you before trying to start your own construction. If you are in a snow-covered area you may be able to dig a cave in deep snow for protection from the wind. You should try to hide yourself in the middle of the mountain if possible. Stay out of the valleys-cold air falls and the valley floor can be the coldest area on the mountain.

Signal for help

The best time to signal is during the day. Signal for help from the highest point possible-it will be easier for rescuers to see you and any sound you make will travel farther. If you take a box of matches and a space blanket (a special blanket for traveling) build three smoky fires and put your blanket-gold side facing out on the ground.

Do not walk away

It will make finding you more difficult as search teams will be trying to follow your path and may miss you if you have gone off in a different direction. Searchers often end up finding a car with no one in it.

If you get frostbite (冻伤) do not rewarm the affected area until you're out of danger.

You can walk on frostbitten feet but once you warm the area and can feel the pain you will not want to walk anywhere. Try to protect the frostbitten area and keep it dry until you are rescued.

1.When lost in the mountains you can increase your chances of survival if you_____.

A. take a space blanket with you

B. do more physical labor

C. try to find a car immediately

2.According to the passage people most probably fail to survive if they _____.

1.A 2.C 3.C 【解析】 试题分析:短文大意:这篇短文主要介绍了一些在山中迷路的人如何生存的问题. 1.A细节理解题。全文介绍了增加生存机会的方法,与选项对照A符合。B和D在第二段第一句“Unnecessary labor will make you sweat and make you cold”就可看出是不符合的。C项根本没有提到,也不符合。所以选A。 2.C细节理解题。A是大多数人认为死亡的原因,而不是文中讲到的实际原因,因此不对;B是文中讲到能够生存的一种方法,因此也不对;D并不是死亡的必然原因,因此也不对。所以选C。 3.大意题。从第一段最后一句“but actually eighty percent of mountain survival is your reaction to fear”可知山中旅行是危险的,所以选B。 考点:日常生活类阅读。

April Fool’s Day is supposed to be a day to play jokes on others in hopes of getting a good laugh and making one feel like a fool. However the April Fool’s Day of 2014 was quite different for my mom and me.

That day my friend Jimmy and I were playing a game. I had dropped down from a bar (横木) many times in the past without ever having a problem but that day the simple act of dropping to the ground became a nightmare (噩梦). I broke my arm.

Jimmy’s dad heard my crying and rushed out to see what was going on. When he saw the problem he quickly put me into his truck and went inside to telephone my mom and let her know he would take me to hospital. As that day was April Fool’s Day Mom was not buying it and really thought all this was a big joke. Mom was finally convinced by Jimmy’s mom. When she saw me she broke down in tears because she felt so bad –she originally thought this was just a big prank (恶作剧).

I guess one could compare this to the story of The Boy Who Cried Wolf. Since I had pulled pranks before it is no wonder that my mom didn’t believe it. I as well as my mom was made to look like a fool that day. We both learned a valuable lesson.

1.What happened to the writer on the April Fool’s Day of 2014?

A. Because he wanted to play a joke on her.

B. Because he wanted her to go to the hospital to pay the money.
