Escaping (逃) from a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save a life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, for example, you can use stairways, roofs and fire escapes, but no lifts.

From the lower floors of buildings, to escape through windows is possible. Learn the best way of leaving by a window with the least chance of serious injury.

The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average (平均) person, hanging from the window by the fingertips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground--about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.

Windows are also useful while you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed, before opening the window. Otherwise, smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low next to the window to be sure you get fresh air.

On the second or third floor, the best windows to escape from are those which open onto a roof (屋頂) . From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely.

1.You can try to escape a fire except _____.

A.fire escapes

B.lifts

C.roofs

D.stairways

2.According to the passage, windows are ________.

科目:初中英語 來源:2012-2013學年江蘇省九年級月考英語試卷試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Brownie and Spotty were neighbor dogs. They loved each other and played together so often that they had worn a path through the grass of the field between their houses.

One evening, Brownie’s family noticed that their dog hadn’t returned home. They went looking for him, but with no success. Brownie didn’t show up the next day, and by the next week he was still missing.

Curiously, Spotty showed up at Brownie’s house alone. He barked loudly. But busy with their own lives, Brownie’s family just ignored (忽略) their neighbor’s nervous little dog.

Finally, one morning Spotty refused to take “no” for an answer. He followed Ted, Brownie’s owner, everywhere he went. He barked, then rushed towards a nearby empty lot and back, as if to say, “ Follow me!”

Finally, Ted followed the dog across the empty lot. The dog led the man to a tree a half-mile from the house. There Ted found Brownie alive. One of his legs was crushed (夾住) in a trap. Ted wished he had taken Spotty’s earlier appeals (求助) seriously.

Then Ted noticed something amazing. In a circle around the injured dog, he saw a lot of dog food. They were the remains of lots of meals.

Spotty had been visiting Brownie every day. He had stayed with Brownie to protect him, snuggling(依偎) with him at night to keep him warm and nuzzling(用鼻子愛撫) him to keep his spirits up.

1.What can we learn from the first three paragraphs?

A.Brownie and Spotty didn’t like their owners.

D.Spotty probably knew where Brownie was.

2.According to the story, which of the following is TRUE?

A.Spotty barked loudly at Ted because he was scared.

B.Ted followed Spotty because Spotty asked him to.

C.Spotty succeeded in escaping from the trap.

D.Brownie had nothing to eat that whole week.

3.The underlined phrase “keep his spirits up” in the last paragraph probably means______.

A.feed him          B.praise him         C.comfort him       D.protect him

4.What does the story aim to tell us?

A.Dog is man’s best friend.                B.Even dogs can have strong friendship.
