【解析】

英國(guó)人特別喜歡DIY。其中一個(gè)重要的原因是DIY能夠省錢(qián)，因此DIY特別流行。但是DIY是有危險(xiǎn)的，很多人還沒(méi)意識(shí)到。據(jù)報(bào)道，在英國(guó)每年都有上千人因?yàn)樽?/span>DIY而受傷。本文介紹了DIY，以及DIY在英國(guó)流行的原因，同時(shí)也提出了一些DIY存在的問(wèn)題。

【1】句意：如果在他們的房子周?chē)腥魏螙|西需要修理或裝飾，比如粉刷房子或者安裝新的淋浴……

or連接兩個(gè)并列成分，or后面為putting in a new shower，此空也為動(dòng)名詞。paint的動(dòng)名詞為painting。故填painting。

【2】句意：……他們都可能會(huì)自己做這個(gè)工作。

根據(jù)音標(biāo)[prbbli]可知是probably，probably為副詞，此處修飾動(dòng)詞。故填probably。

【3】句意：越來(lái)越多的人表現(xiàn)出對(duì)DIY的興趣。

an后面接可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)，并且單詞音標(biāo)由元音音素開(kāi)頭。show an interest in 表示“顯示對(duì)……的興趣”。故填interest。

【4】句意：有時(shí)人們DIY為了省錢(qián)。

in order to do sth.表示“為了做某事”，此空為動(dòng)詞原形。save money表示“省錢(qián)”。故填save。

【5】句意：他們?cè)囍谒麄兏恫黄鹳M(fèi)用的時(shí)候找到能夠讓房子變得更好的辦法。

此句是when引導(dǎo)的狀語(yǔ)從句，從句中缺少謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。can’t為情態(tài)動(dòng)詞，后接動(dòng)詞原形。根據(jù)首字母提示以及the cost“花費(fèi)”可知用afford。afford表示“付得起”。故填afford。

【6】句意：因此DIY非常流行并不讓人吃驚。

it is +adj+從句表示“……是……的”。surprise的形容詞形式有surprised和surprising。surprised用來(lái)形容人，surprising用來(lái)形容物或者事情。故填surprising。

【7】句意：一些說(shuō)明書(shū)很簡(jiǎn)單、清楚，但是家具本身是很難建造的。

but作連詞，表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。根據(jù)上句“一些說(shuō)明書(shū)很簡(jiǎn)單、清楚”，可推測(cè)家具本身是很困難的。itself表示“它自己”，指代the furniture。故填itself。

【8】句意：DIY也可以是危險(xiǎn)的。

根據(jù)音標(biāo)[dendrs]可知此空是dangerous，表示“危險(xiǎn)的”，即形容詞作表語(yǔ)。故填dangerous。

【9】句意：不幸的是，很多人都不在意這個(gè)。

此空提示luck為名詞，表示“運(yùn)氣”�？蘸笥卸禾�(hào)，可知此空應(yīng)為副詞，修飾整個(gè)句子。結(jié)合many people don't care about that.可知副詞意思應(yīng)為“不幸地”，即unluckily。故填Unluckily。

【10】句意：據(jù)報(bào)道僅僅一年在英國(guó)就會(huì)有上千人在做DIY的時(shí)候受傷……

It作形式主語(yǔ)，真正的主語(yǔ)是that引導(dǎo)的從句。因此從句與report的關(guān)系是被動(dòng)的，report表示“報(bào)道”，被動(dòng)形式是reported。故填reported。

How to survive a disaster? Most survivors says that nothing felt, sounded or looked the way they would have expected. Reality was in some ways better, in other ways w【1】. They say there are things they wish they had known.

On September 28, 1994, a ship called the Estonia sank, which was the worst sea disaster in modern European h【2】. Kent was then a 29-year-old passenger. He was hanging out in the bar with some other passengers that night. Suddenly, the ship list to 30, hurling passengers across its passageways. Kent began to act at once. “I started to react very differently from normal. I started to say, ‘Oh， the boat is sinking.’ ”Like many survivors, Kent experienced a state in which the brain focuses on the individual experience, “I just say my small world.”

But as Kent made his way into the corridor, he noticed something strange. Not just one or two passengers, but entire groups seemed unable to m【3】. They were conscious (有意識(shí)的), but they were not reacting.

In the case of the Estonia and other diseases, the freezing response may have been a natural and horrible m【4】. Under extreme stress, our brains search for a proper survival response and sometimes choose the wrong one. But the more encouraging point is that the brain is plastic. It can be trained to respond more properly. If we can r【5】 our own fear even a little bit, we might be able to do better.

Fire drills, particularly if they are unexpected, can dramatically reduce fear. Knowing where the stairs are in a building can give your brain an a【6】.

Many flight attendants are now rained to scream at passengers in burning planes, “Get out! Go!” People r【7】 well to leadership in a disaster, and then they can do remarkable things.

【題目】 A blog posted Dec 7, 2018 at 12:17 PM by Alanna Mallon Alanna Mallon is a Cambridge City Councilor.

Each year in November, I receive a lot of emails and texts from friends who want to volunteer with their families on Thanksgiving as a way to give back. I also field phone calls from organizations who want to donate ( 捐贈(zèng) ) to local programs that provide Thanksgiving meals.

However, as an official who still works in the nonprofit sector (非盈利部門(mén)), I also feel deeply anxious (焦急的) because I know the other 51 weeks of the year, these key programs that provide food to residents (居民) in need are eager for both volunteers and donations. Hunger is a year round problem, and each week volunteers are the necessary part to make sure that programs are able to serve the community.

At Food For Free, we depend on about 100 volunteers per week, and each of those volunteers is extremely important to providing fresh, healthy food to people in the Greater Boston area who need it. School children who take backpacks of food home on Fridays, community college students who depend on our Family Meals program to support their healthy growth, elderly and disabled residents who receive twice monthly deliveries of food to their doors through our Home Delivery program, they all depend on us making sure enough volunteers show up to do the work.

These volunteers don't show up in your social media system, they don't win prizes and no one writes about them in the local newspapers. But they are heroes. And you can be too. If everyone made a promise to volunteer once a month, or even once a quarter, I know that we could reduce some of the anxiety these organizations feel, as a more trust-worthy volunteer network allows them to focus on helping people, not filling volunteer positions.

Here is a list of a few organizations who are doing important work in Cambridge to make sure the food to be safe. Offer your time to an organization, they will be deeply grateful, and I am quite sure that you will feel pretty good about yourself too.

Food For Free: http://foodforfree.org/volunteer.

CEOC: http://ceoccambridge.org/food-pantry.

Harvard Square Homeless Shelter: https://hshshelter.org/volunteer.

Community Cooks: https://communitycooks.org/join-us.

【1】The word "field" in paragraph 1 probably means "________".

【2】What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?

A. The food safety worries the writer.B. Volunteers are needed all year round.

C. Donations can be made through the Internet.D. People like getting together on Thanksgiving.

【3】The third paragraph is mainly about ________.

A. the duty of Food For FreeB. the donations of Family Meals

C. the value of voluntary workD. the difficult life of local people

【4】What's the main purpose of this passage?

A. To call for action.B. To express thanks.
