Unit 5 Theme parks Period 2 Reading

课后阅读作业

Ⅰ. 阅读理解

A

Almost all theme park accidents can be prevented. Here, based on coverage of theme park safety, are some tips to help you and your family stay safe on your next visit.

If you are visiting with children, take a moment to explain the ride to them, and tell them what they should do. They are depending upon you

to keep them safe. Set a good example for them by following the rules of the park, and make sure that they know you expect them to follow those rules, too.

Tell them to stay seated, to hold the grab bar or put their hands in the laps, and not to stick their knees and feet outside a ride vehicle. Make them look to you for the okay to get on or off a ride, too.

And never put a crying child on a ride. If your child starts to cry, let others pass you in line until your child is calmed. Or, gently exit the queue and find something more relaxing to do.

Young kids can’t keep an adult’s pace in a theme park. Let them take plenty of breaks. “Kids get tired, ”said Matt Johnson, a father of four. “Tired kids make parents even more tired. And tired kids and parents may get hurt—physically and emotionally. ”He advises that parents plan a mid-day break, perhaps a swim back at the hotel, to avoid mid-day heat and crowds. “You will see cranky families having a miserable time while you are refreshed and having a great evening. ”

Today, paper-making is a big business. But it is still possible to make paper by hand, since the steps are the same as using big machines.

You should use paper with small amounts of printing. Old envelopes are good for this reason. Colored paper also can be used, as well as

small amounts of newspaper. Small pieces of rags or cloth can be added. These should be cut into pieces about five centimeters by five centimeters.

Everything is placed in a container, covered with water and brought to a boil. It is mixed for about two hours with some common chemicals and then allowed to cool. Then it is left until most of the water dries up. The substance left, called pulp(纸浆), can be stored until you are ready to make paper.

When you are ready, the pulp is mixed with water again. Then the pulp is poured into a mold. The mold is made of small squares of wire that hold the shape and thickness of the paper. To help dry the paper, the mold lets the water flow through the small wire squares.

After several more drying steps, the paper is carefully lifted back from the mold. It is now strong enough to be touched.

The paper is smoothed and pressed to remove trapped air. You can use a common electric iron used for pressing clothes.

【语篇概述】文章主要介绍了自己造纸要准备的材料和具体的操作步骤, 以及如何自己手工造纸。 5. It is suggested that“You should use paper with small amounts of printing”to ______. A. make paper by ourselves B. renew the old envelopes C. make various colored paper D. create our own newspaper

【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Today, paper-making is a big business. But it is still possible to make paper by hand”可知, 我们可以自己手工造纸。根据第二段内容可知, 作者介绍了如果自己造纸要准备些什么材料, 紧接着作者介绍了自己造纸的操作过程。由此推断, 作者建议我们选择字少的纸张, 这是为我们自己造纸做的准备, 而不是为了更新旧信封, 制造各种有色纸或创建我们自己的报纸。

6. Whether the paper is strong enough to be touched is determined by______. A. how long the pulp is stored B. how thick the paper is C. how much water remains D. what type of chemicals is used

【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据倒数第二段推断, 纸张是否可以触摸取决于纸张中残留水分的多少。 7. When the paper is lifted from the mold, it is time to______. A. make it smooth

B. make it strong
