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. Many people think that preparing necessary equipment and knowing how to use it are very important, but actually eighty percent of mountain survivals is your reaction(反應) to fear.
Find a hiding place.
Unnecessary efforts 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 valleys—cold air falls, and the valley floor can be the coldest area on the mountain.
Signal rescuers for help.
The best time to signal rescuers(救援者) 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 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.
If you get frostbite（凍傷）, 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.
小題1:When lost in the mountains, you can increase your chances of survival if you _____.
A．try to find a car immediatelyB．take a space blanket with you
C．do more physical laborD．walk as far as possible to find help

Animals, including insects, don’t have a ‘language’ like ours. They do not ‘talk’ to each other in words and sentences. But if we watch them, we can see that they do have their ways of communicating (交流) with each other.
Can you see the rabbit’s tail? When rabbits see this white tail moving up and down, they run away. They know that they are in danger. The rabbit has told them something without making a sound. It has given them a signal.
Many other animals use this kind of ‘language’. When a cobra（眼鏡蛇）is angry, it raises its head and makes itself look powerful（有力的）. This warns other animals. When a bee（蜜蜂）has found food, it goes back to its home. It cannot ‘tell’ the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance. This tells the bees where the food is.
Some animals ‘say’ things by making sounds. A dog barks, for example, when a stranger comes near. A cat purrs when it is pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning. Sometimes we human beings speak in the same way. We make sounds like “Oh” or “Ah” when we are frightened or pleased or when we drop something on our toes.
小題1:Which one is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Animals have languages like human beings.
B．Bees communicate with each other by dancing.
C．Animals can use words. D．Animals are brave.
小題2:A rabbit uses its tail to ___________.
A．warn other rabbits when they are in danger B．tell other rabbits where food is
C．make itself look powerful D．help it to run fast
小題3:When a cobra is angry, it __________.
A．makes a loud noiseB．raises its head
C．moves up and downD．does a little dance
小題4:Several different sounds can be made by a __________.
A．rabbitB．beeC．birdD．fish
小題5:From the passage, we know that ________ use words and sentences to express ideas and thoughts.
A．a(chǎn)ll living thingsB．a(chǎn)ll animalsC．some birdsD．human beings

There is no doubt that mothers play an important leading role in the lives of their children. But what about a father's role? I believe that fathers play just as important a role as mothers.
Fathers give us support. They are the shore（岸）we swim to when our arms and legs feel increasingly tired. They are the strength we rely on （依靠）as we take our first steps into the world. Fathers can be gentle and powerful, but they probably have the simplest love we ever know.
_______, the father is their first hero and possibly the only man they will ever feel comfortable loving.
For daughters, the father is the first man they admire and the first man whose eyes shine with happiness when they look at them. He is the first man to fall in love with them.
For mothers, the father of our children is the person we can believe in to watch over the babies as closely as we would. We are protectedin the knowledge of their love. A father is the person on the planet with whom we can do whatever we want ... one who will be just as interested and never feel bored in the face of our devotion.
Without fathers, we wouldn't be mums. I would like to thank them from all our hearts for this honor and for being our partners in the business of raising children.

Amy Chua, well-known as the Tiger Mother, has held the attention of parents all across the US. She told Reader’s Digest that she’s a little strange about how her book struck so many nerves in the US. The reporter of the magazine is sharing the interview with us.
Reader’s Digest: Did you want your book to be controversial (有爭議的)?
Amy: I don’t think it would have been controversial at all if it wasn’t for the Wall Street Journal headline that was called, “Why Chinese Mothers are Superior”.
Reader’s Digest: What’s your view on your parenting?
Amy: My children grew up with one Western parent. My husband doesn’t believe in raising his voice with the kids and we don’t spank (打小孩). They were really raised in a half Asian family. My book’s message is that we should try to find the balance. I believe that when children are little, you should restrict (限制) their choices. I like the traditional Chinese way. Respect authority (尊重權利) and don’t just let them watch TV all the time. I don’t think kids under the age of ten can make good choices. But once they start to get older, the lesson I learnt with Lulu (Amy’s second daughter) is that you have to start listening to them. You have to start giving them more choices and more freedom. I really think it’s important to find a balance.
I like the strict Chinese way of discipline (行為準則) and hard work when children are young. But when they’re older, you have to send love to your child, you have to listen to your child and really achieve the balance between creativity, choice and freedom on the one hand, which the west is very good at, and on the other hand, hard work and self discipline, which I think traditional Chinese parenting is very good at.
小題1:Where can we find the passage?
A．In a novel.B．In a magazine.C．In a comic book.D．In a history book.
小題2:The Tiger Mother thinks the reason her book became controversial is that ______.
A．she is very famous
B．parenting is such a common topic
C．traditional Chinese parenting is too strict
D．the Wall Street Journal headline was called “Why Chinese Mothers are Superior”
小題3:Which of the following is TRUE according to Amy’s view on parenting?
A．We should control all of the children’s choices.
B．Spanking is necessary during children’s growth.
C．Children should be raised in half Asian families.
D．When children get older, parents should listen to them.
小題4:According to the passage, we can see ______ in the west.
A．children respect their parents because of authority
B．a(chǎn)ll kids under the age of ten can make good choices
C．some parents don’t believe in raising their voice with the kids
D．children do all of the things according to their parents’ orders
小題5:What is the main idea of this passage?
A．The book that the Tiger Mother wrote is very controversial.
B．Traditional Chinese parenting is much better than that in the west.
C．The Tiger Mother shows some of her ideas about her book and parenting.
D．Parents should achieve the balance between creativity, choice and freedom.
