6、ted States, the Red Cross, and other official organizations all agree that “drop, cover, and hold on” is the appropriate action to reduce injury and death during earthquakes.Earthquakes usually occur 31 any warning and may be so violent that you cannot run; you 32 will most likely be knocked to the

7、ground where you happen to be. “Drop, cover, and 学而思教育学习改变命运 思考成就未来！ 高考网 学而思教育学习改变命运 思考成就未来！ 高考网 hold on” gives you the best overall chance of protecting yourself during an earthquake. Dropping, covering your head (and your body by being under a strong table if possible), and holding onto furniture

8、(even if it is moving) offers the best overall level of protection in most situations. In cases 33 an earthquake is less violent, you might be able to move to a 34 advantageous position (e.g. away from breaking windows, etc.). As you drop to the floor, cover your head, and hold on to a solid object.

9、Studies of injuries and deaths 35 by earthquakes indicate that you are much more likely to be injured by falling or 36 objects (TVs, lamps, glass, bookcases, etc.) than to die in a collapsed building. If there is no nearby space beneath a table or other furniture that can provide protection from the

10、se objects, then you should get next to a large piece of furniture such as a sofa, cover your head, and hold on to the furniture when it moves. 37 there is no furniture, get next to an inside wall if possible. If you are in bed, the best thing to do is to stay where you are and cover your head with

11、a pillow.If a building 38 collapse, rescue teams will search through the ruins for victims, using tools, search dogs, and electronic instruments that can detect the presence of live people. Survivors are usually found in spaces large enough for a human within the ruins, called “ 39 Void（空的）Space”. I

12、t can be as large as an adult, or in the case of small children or infants, a very small space. The main goal of “drop, cover, and hold on” is to protect you from falling or flying objects, and to 40 the chance of survival if the building actually collapses.31.

22、ever goes away completely and it often appear in quarrelling.“ In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful. “The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings,“ says educational psychologist Ingrid Coll

23、ins. Psychosexual therapist（性心理学家） Paula Hall agrees. “The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative （主动）.

24、 the motivation of the person saying it. “Is it said when they re drunk? Is it said before their partner flies off on holiday, and what it really means is Please don t be unfaithful to me ? By saying I love you, they are really saying Do you love me? If so, wouldnt it just be more honest to say that

This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctors d

30、egree. Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same question, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry. A

31、 room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, resembles(类似) a group of workers at an automobile factory. Generally, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines.One type of test is sometimes c

32、alled an “objective“ test. It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions.

36、iful city,” the French painter Claude Monet wrote to his wife, Alice, during one of his long visits to England from France.

37、urful skies he began painting there between 1899 and 1901. Pollution has never looked quite as attractive as when seen through Monets eyes.Now there is evidence that Monets beautiful and mysterious images of London were not only Impressionist creations, but a result of highly accurate observation.
