Dereck Joubert and his wife, Beverly, have made many films about wild animals in Africa. Their films and photographs are very popular and one of the photographs has been on the front cover of a National Geographic magazine.
  A working day foe Dereck and Beverly starts very early-at 4:30 in the morning! That's when they get up and start filming. And it's a long day-they often work until 8:30 in the evening. In the winter it's very cold and in the summer it can be 40℃. Dereck always does the filming-Beverly never does that, and she doesn't write. But Dereck never takes photographs or records the sound. They work very well as a team, and they both believe we should shoot animals with cameras-not with guns!
  When they have finished filming and taking photographs for the day, they have dinner and Dereck usually writes while Beverly looks at her photographs. At night, they usually sleep in a small tent, but they sometimes sleep in the Land Cruiser-when you're very close to wild animals, it's sometimes safer to sleep in the car.
  Dereck and Beverly have also traveled around the world and given talks about their work. Dereck says that animals are not just something to look at-they play an important role. Beverly thinks the wild animals can teach us a lot about ourselves.
Dereck and Beverly start working ______.

A.at 4:30 in the morning B.at 4:30 in the afternoon
C.at 8:30 in the morning D.at 8:30 in the evening

Dereck and Beverly usually sleep ______ at night.

A.in a car B.in a tent C.in a house D.in a hotel

Beverly thinks the wild animals ______.

A.are something to look at B.are very popular

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。

What subject do you worry about the most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can’t sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful.

“For students who are worried about math, posture(姿势)makes a big difference,” Erik Peper, a researcher from a university told Daily Mail. That’s right—sitting up straight can help you do better in math exams.

Researchers tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a math exam while sitting in a slumped-over(趴倒的)position, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56% of the students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.

Slumping over is a defensive(防备的)posture. It can bring out negative(消极的)memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking clearly, Peper said.

Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam didn’t necessarily benefit(受益)from better posture. But they did find that doing math in a slumped-over position was more difficult, Science Daily reported.

Good posture isn’t just helpful for taking math exams. Musicians, sports players and public speakers can all benefit from it. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more positive(积极的)and focus better.

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。

On average(平均), firefighters get a fire call every 24 second s in the US. Every 87 seconds, a home fire happens. Just between January 1st, 2019 and January 1st, 2024, there were 11,180 home fire deaths in the country. But the best escape time for a fire is just three minutes or less. So everyone should pay attention to fire safety at home.

To avoid starting a fire, we must know common causes. Cooking tools are the number-one cause of home fires. Be especially careful when using them. Never leave the kitchen while cooking and make sure the tools are completely off after cooking. Electrical appliances(电器)can lead to a fire, so check them often to make sure they are working properly. Smoking is another common cause of house fires. It’s never a good idea to smoke indoors, so take a few steps to go out. Last, don’t forget little kids. They usually find fire exciting and think of fire as a toy. So keep them away from fire and teach them about dangers of fire.

How can we prevent home fires? The following tips may help.

Get smoke alarms

The first step is to install(安装)enough smoke alarms through your home. Get one in every room.

Prepare fire extinguishers

Keep fire extinguishers(灭火器)available at home. They can put out small fires. Check them often to make sure they work properly.

Create a plan for escape

A good plan should start with two escape ways from every room. Then know how fast your family can run, tell kids when and how to get out, and make a house map with all doors and windows. At last, choose a meeting place outside. And don't forget to practice it often with every family member.

You might think that these fire safety tips are common sense. However, it's difficult to think of them especially when you're in a life-and-death moment. Take action with the tips and never take fire safety lightly at home.
