The worst danger is a house on fire when people are asleep. Always be ready to leave through a window into the garden by making sure you can open it if necessary. If you should be on holiday in a tall building or hotel,make sure you know where the fire easape（太平梯） is . When you can’t find any way out,try to find pieces of cloth and make a rope to get out of a window to safety. If you smell burning in your home,get out right away. If you can’t breathe properly because of smoke on your way out, crawl（爬行） on your hands and knees because smoke rises and the air will be cleaner near the floor.Smoke is a killer and more people have died from breathing it in than actually being burnt.

Fire in a cinema,hall or public place often means people pushing to reach a door. Keep your head up with arms up in front of your chest（胸）.This protects your chest and gives you the best chance to breathe. Above all, don’t get frightened!

 There is not enough oil in the world now. As time goes by ,it becomes less and less ,so what are we going to do when it runs out? Perhaps we will go back to use horses ,carriages and bicycles .

 In the Second World War ,some people didn＇t use gas made from petroleum （石油）in their cars .They made gas from wood and plants instead . The cars didn＇t go fast ,but they ran ,so this was better than nothing. However, in the future, we can＇t cut down all our trees to make gas; we need our trees for other things, too.

Besides different types of gas, we can also use electricity(電)to run our cars but first we must make the electricity ！Some countries have coal and they make electricity with that, but we might not always have coal, either. Other countries have big ,strong rivers and they can use the power of water to turn turbines(渦輪機) and make electricity more easily and cheaply.

We are also able to get power from the ocean tides. We put turbines into the mouth of the river .Then the tide comes in ,the water turns the turbines and then it goes out ,it turns them again.

Which of these ways will be used to run our cars in the future?

1.When might people have to go back to using horses and carriages?

A. When they are poor    

B. When they run out of oil

C. When they need more exercise

D. When there aren＇t any big trees in the world

2.How many ways are suggested to make electricity in the passage?

A.2           B.5          C.4                 D.3

boomerang

The Aborigines (澳洲土著) have lived in Australia for about 60,000 years. They painted pictures inside caves, and these are the rock paintings that have given us so much information about Aboriginal life. For example, some of the paintings that are about 10,000 years old show men with boomerangs. From this we know that the Aborigines started using boomerangs for hunting at that time. Other pictures show kangaroos, so we know that there were kangaroos at that time.

The Aborigines believed that spirits made people, animals and plants, and that these spirits still live in the earth. For Aborigines, no one can own the earth—the earth belongs to the spirits.

In 1700, there were many Aboriginal groups with a population of 750,000 all over Australia, and there were probably more than 240 different Aboriginal languages. The groups did not have a leader. Instead, things were decided by the older men in a group. People from different groups often travelled hundreds of miles to meet each other.

Aboriginal life changed when an English boat arrived in Australia in 1770. Many Aborigines were killed in the wars that they had with the English. More Europeans came, and they started taking land from the Aborigines. The Europeans also brought new illnesses that killed the Aborigines. The result is that today there are only about 300,000 Aborigines in Australia.

1. The Aborigines painted pictures       .

   A. on animals’ fur         B. on the land     

C. on the tree              D. on the rock

2. What do you think the Aborigines used boomerangs to do?

   A. To paint.  B. To hunt.   C. To fight. D. To play.

3.. The Aborigines thought        were the most important on the earth.

   A. people      B. animals   C. spirits      D. plants

4. In an Aboriginal group        decided things.

   A. the older men        B. the leader      

   C. the English          D. the Europeans

5.The number of the Aborigines is small today       .

   A. because their living condition was very bad

   B. because the English killed a lot of them in the wars

   C. because of the new illnesses the Europeans brought them

   D. because of the wars and the new illnesses
