A man once had a dream about the Black Forest in Germany. In his dream he was walking in the forest when two men ran out and tried to throw him to the ground. He ran off as fast as he could, but they followed him. He reached a place where he saw two roads in front of him, one to the right and the other to the left. Which road should he take? He heard the two men behind him, getting nearer, and at the same time he heard a voice in his ear. It told him to go to the right, and he did so. He ran on and soon came to a small hotel. He was received there kindly and given a room, and he was saved from the two men. That was the dream.
Twenty years later he was really in the Black Forest and, as happened in the dream long ago, two men ran out and tried to throw him down. He ran off, and came to a place with two roads, like in the dream. He remembered the dream and took the road to the right. He soon reached a small hotel, was taken in, and so was safe. His dream of twenty years before had saved his life.The Black Forest is __________.

How many things can you see in the night sky? A lot! On a clear night you might see the Moon, some planets, and thousands of shining stars.
You can see even more with the help of new inventions. You might see stars where before you only saw dark space. You might see that many stars look larger than others. You might see that some stars that look white are really red or blue. With bigger and bigger telescopes you can see more and more objects in the sky. You can find out more about those objects.
But scientists believe there are some things in the sky that we will never see. We won't see them with the biggest telescope in the world, on the clearest night of the year.
That's because they can't be seen. They're the mysterious（神秘的）dead stars called black holes.
You might find it hard to imagine that stars die. But stars do burn out and die after billions of years.
As a star burns, it gives off light and heat. But when the star burns out, it begins to die.
As the star cools, the outer parts of the star pull in toward the center. The star squashes into a smaller and smaller ball. If the star was very small, the star ends up as a cold, dark ball called a black dwarf（黑矮星）. If the star was very big, it keeps squashing inward until it's packed together tighter（紧的）than anything in the universe.
Imagine if the Earth were squashed until it was the size of a tiny ball. That's how tightly this dead star, a black hole, is packed. What pulls the star in toward its center with such power? It's the same force（力量）that pulls you down when you jump—the force called gravity（重力）. A black hole is so tightly packed that its gravity sucks（吸收）in everything—even light. The light from a black hole can never come back to your eyes. That's why you see nothing but blackness.
So the next time you look up into the night sky, remember: there's more in the sky! All over in the darkness are black holes—the great mystery of space. 
From the passage we know a black hole is.
| A．a huge hole in the universe |
| B．a group of stars packed together |
| C．a dead star that is packed tightly |
| D．complete silent darkness in space |
When a star squashes it will.
| A．turn into a ball | B．suck in everything |
| C．get smaller and smaller | D．become darker and darker |
The passage is mainly about.
| A．how stars burn out |
| B．what dead stars are |
| C．how we can see more stars |
| D．why stars give heat and light |
If you find yourself in the middle of an active shooter event（枪击案现场）, your safety may depend on whether or not you have a plan.
The plan doesn't have to be difficult to follow. There are three things you could do to make a difference: Run, Hide, Fight.
RUN
First and for most, if we can get out, do it! Always try to escape（逃生）even when others insist on（坚持）staying. Encourage others to leave with us, but do not let them slow us down with the decision. Leave our things behind, and try to find out a way to get out safely. Try to get ourselves out from the harmed-way. Try to stop others walking into a dangerous area and call 110. Here are some tips for the situation when an active shooter is around you.
★If there is an escape path, try to evacuate（疏散）.
★Evacuate whether others agree to or not.
★Leave your things behind.
★Help others escape if possible.
★Stop others entering the area.
★Call 110 when you are safe.
HIDE
If we can't get out safely, we need to find a place to hide. Act quickly and quietly. Try to make sure our hiding place is good. Turn off lights and if possible, remember to lock doors. Silence our cell phones, and if we can't find a safe room, try to hide behind a large object（物体）that may protect us. Remember the following tips:
★Lock and/or blockade （put the things against） the door.
★Silence your cell phone.
★Hide behind large objects.
★Stay very quiet.
FIGHT
As a last resort（万不得已）, only if our life is in danger, whether we are alone or working together as a group, fight! We should try to do the following:
★Look for something that can be used to fight.
★Try your best to protect yourself.
Remember these and you will be safe. The first thing is toin the middle of an active shooter event.
| A．RUN | B．HIDE |
| C．FIGHT | D．SHOUT |
When you find a place to hide, you should_______________.
| A．call 110 | B．silence your cell phones |

You have to fight
| A．when you see the shooter |
| B．if evacuation is impossible |
| C．only if your life is in danger |

Hi, I am Eric. I went on a vacation last week. It was excellent. I visited my grandparents in the countryside. Here I went fishing every day. The river runs slowly and is very clean. And I fed the sheep with my grandpa on the farm. It was so much fun. The weather was great and the air was so fresh. I watched the stars at night. They were so beautiful. The best things in life are free!Did Eric watch the stars at night?
