With the development of economics (经济)，the problem of left-behind children (留守儿童) has become a serious social problem. More and more people have realized we should do something to help them.

One of the biggest problems is that the children are all hungry for the love from their parents. Many of them can just get a call or a letter from their parents half a year, a year or even several years, which makes some children lost their parents' faces. When they meet their own troubles, they have no one to talk with. Nobody gives them enough care.

Because of being too far away from their parents, the left-behind children's study is the second biggest problem. From a survey (调查) about their study, only two percent of the children get good results, while ten percent of them are common and eighty-eight percent of them are poor. What a pity!

There are also many other problems of the left-behind children, such as having no ability to protect themselves, unhealthy lifestyles, spending too much pocket money and being crazy about Internet and so on.

In a word, to solve all the problems of the left-behind children needs the government, families and schools to try their best together.

23. How many problems are mentioned (提及) in the passage?

A.Two.    B. Three.     C. Four.     D. More than four.

24. Which is the most serious problem of the left-behind children according to the passage?

A. They don't study well.

B. They can't get enough love from parents.

C. They are crazy about the Internet.

D. They spend too much pocket money.

25. Which of the following sentences is TRUE?

A. Ten percent of the left-behind children are good at study.

B. When left-behind children meet troubles. they always have grandparents to talk with.

C. The left-behind children's problem is a social problem.

D. Only families can do their best to help the left-behind children.

26. What is the structure of the passage?

D

March 25 is called the National Day of Education on the Safety of Elementary and Middle School Students(NDESEMSS全国中小学生安全教育日). The theme of the day this year is to give students more knowledge about safety and make sure that their lives are safe.

A survey done by the China Youth and Children Research Center showed that school accidents kill more elementary and middle school students than anything else. The main accidents come from stampedes (踩踏). earthquakes, fires and sports injuries (伤害).

What can we do to keep ourselves safe? Staying calm (镇静) is the first and most important rule when acing accidents. But different incidents have different self-protection advice.

A stampede is possible anywhere. The larger a human crowd gets, the more likely stampedes become. When students around you begin to push, stand still and try to hold onto something, or stay in a corner until the crowd leaves. If you fall down in a moving crowd, cover your head with both hands.

Earthquakes are common natural disasters (灾害). When you feel the ground shake, drop down, take cover under a desk and hold on. You should stay indoors until the shaking stops. If you are outdoors, don't stay near buildings, trees or power lines.

When there's a fire, follow the teachers' instructions, leave the classroom quickly and use a piece of wet cloth to cover your mouth and nose so that you don't breathe in smoke.

27. What is the theme of NDESEMSS this year?

A.To give students more knowledge about accidents and make them run away.

B. To give students more knowledge about health and make sure they eat healthily.

C.To give students more knowledge about science and make their study better.

D. To give students more knowledge about safety and make sure that their lives are safe.

28. According to this passage, what should you do first when accidents happen?

A. Run away.   B. Stand there.   C. Keep calm.  D. Cry loudly.

29. What does the underlined word "incidents" mean in the passage?

A.accidents   B. communications   C. vacations   D. developments

30. What's the best title for this passage?

A. Be afraid of accidents

B. The earthquake is coming

C. Run away from accidents

D. How to protect yourself
