阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Emergencies can happen anytime, so being prepared for a home first-aid kit(成套工具) is important to your family. Having a proper one in your home is an easy but necessary part of good emergency preparation.
Pick a good container
One good choice is a large translucent plastic container, which makes it easy to see the materials inside. Lunchboxes are also another good choice. Basically, if it's big enough, and at least somewhat water-resistant, it can make a good container. Regardless of your container choice, it should be easy to recognize, so write “FIRST AID” on it with a marker.
Teach your family about the kit
For younger children who shouldn't use the items in the kit, teach them where it's located, so they could show a visitor, relative or babysitter. For older children and adults, instruct them how to use the items in it. Use a first-aid instruction booklet, like those available from the American Red Cross for guidance, and place the booklet in the kit for reference.
Keep your kit up-to-date
No one wants to fetch a first-aid kit and find the bandage box empty or the pain relievers expired(过期的). Keep track of supply amounts and expiration dates regularly.
Create a checklist in the kit
Record every item on a sheet of paper and keep it in the kit. Besides, record the amount of the items and expiration dates next to the listed items on the checklist that you include in your kit. In this way, anyone who wants to reach the kit can immediately know what it includes and doesn't include. Also, they can be clear whether the items can be used.
1.Which is close to the meaning of the underlined word “translucent”?
A.Wide. B.Advanced. C.Clear. D.Strong.
2.What should the young children be told about the home first-aid kit?
A.How to use the items.
B.What it contains.
C.Where to place it.
D.When to fetch it.
3.Why should the home first-aid kit be examined regularly?
A.To make it clean and tidy.
B.To make sure it's available.
C.To be familiar with the items.
D.To learn to deal with emergencies.
第一节
A
本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了家中拥有急救箱是应对紧急情况的重要举措,并对急救箱的选择及使用进行了说明,同时提醒大家要及时更换、补充和记录急救箱中的物品。
1.C 词义猜测题。根据第二段画线词后面的定语从句which makes it easy to see the materials inside可知,它可以很容易让人看到里面的材料。这里的which指代的是先行词container,从句的内容可以解释container前修饰词语的意义,所以画线词的意思是“透明的”。故选C。
2.C 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句For younger children who shouldn't use the items in the kit, teach them where it's located, so they could show a visitor, relative or babysitter.可知,对于不应该使用急救箱中物品的年幼儿童而言,家长应告诉他们急救箱所在的位置,以便他们能在有突发情况的时候告诉客人、亲戚或保姆。故选C。
3.B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的No one wants to fetch a first-aid kit and find the bandage box empty or the pain relievers expired. Keep track of supply amounts and expiration dates regularly.可知,没有人想在拿起急救箱时,发现绷带盒是空的或者止痛药过期了。要定期查看还有多少可用的东西和有效日期。因此,定期查看家庭急救箱的原因在于确保有可用的东西和物品没有失效。故选B。
