Harry is a boy with a learning disability. On his fourth birthday, he was given a pug called Millie. Two weeks after the dog’s arrival, he was happier and calmer and said his first words, “dog” and “mummy”. Just two months later, thieves stole the dog, and now the heartbroken little boy is back to where he started. He has refused to talk since losing his best friend. His mother was worried and gave him another dog, but he just “pushed it away”. Mrs Hainsworth, his mother, says, “My son is very sad. He’ll go over to her cage and just beat(敲打) on the bars. There is no word coming out, but you just know he’s screaming ‘Where is Millie’ inside. Millie was really his best friend. They would play together happily for hours. None of his toys has ever held his attention that long. Now he has just completely turned quiet again. ”Harry suffers from a condition which affects his ability to speak and move. But the dog’s being with him achieved more in days than months of speech therapy and physiotherapy had. Mrs Hainsworth says, “My son was so happy when he saw Millie. Being with Millie changed him, and within two weeks he had said his first words and was working on saying ‘dad’. Just last week, his teachers and I were saying how much Millie had helped him. And now this!” Mrs Hainsworth is considering buying another pug in the hope that her son will accept it. Maureen Hennis of the charity, Pets as Therapy, says she has seen many cases of dogs helping people with speech problems. “People may talk to a dog when they wouldn’t like to talk to another human,” she says. “A dog doesn’t care if words come out wrong.”

【解析】

试题分析：这篇短文中讲述了一个孩子Harry，他不说话，但是自从他有了一只狗后，他开始说话了。后来狗被偷了，Harry又变回了从前的样子，不说话了。有时候动物会帮助孩子说话，因为跟动物说话，孩子不会害怕出错。

1.细节理解题。根据短文的开头On his fourth birthday, he was given a pug called Millie. Two weeks after the dog’s arrival, he was happier and calmer and said his first words, “dog” and “mummy”.可知，在Harry四岁生日的时候，他有了一只狗叫Millie。这只狗到来两周后，他说了他的第一句话，“狗”和“妈妈。因此，有了这只狗后，Harry第一次说话，说明他以前没有说过话。故选B。

2.细节理解题。根据短文第一段中Just two months later, thieves stole the dog, and now the heartbroken little boy is back to where he started. He has refused to talk since losing his best friend.可知，后来这只狗被小偷偷走了，Harry很伤心，他又回到了原来的样子，拒绝说话。故选A。

3.细节理解题。根据短文的最后部分Maureen Hennis of the charity, Pets as Therapy, says she has seen many cases of dogs helping people with speech problems.可知，Maureen说她曾经见过很多动物帮助人们解决语言问题的例子，如果你说错了话，动物是不会介意的。由此可知选C。

考点：日常生活类短文阅读。

Liu Xu was robbed(抢劫)! The 13-year-old was riding home when a man jumped out from the road-side. He pulled Liu off his bike and rode away. Liu was scared, but he didn’t run after the robber. He found a telephone and called the police at 110.

“Safety is the first in such a situation,” Liu said, remembering what his teacher had told him in his aid class. “It’s not safe to run after an adult who is much stronger than you.”

Liu is a student at Shenzhen Bao’an Middle School in Guangdong. His school is one of the first in China to have required first aid education. Grade 1 students must take the class once a week.

Teenage safety has become a serious problem recently. According to a recent survey, about 16,000 teenagers die in accidents in China every year. An average(平均) of 40 students die every day from drowning(溺水), food poisoning(中毒) and traffic accidents.

Bao’an School said that the first aid classes are to “teach students skills so that they can keep themselves safe and save themselves from danger.”

Students at Bao’an often learn by role(角色)-playing in first aid classes.

Zhou Min, 12, remembered her favorite lesson. “I performed as a stranger knocking at a door. A classmate stood inside the door and asked several questions before letting me in. Then we changed roles and did it again,” Zhou said. “We learned a lot while having fun at role-playing.”

The topics of the class are regularly changed. The students have learned skills for lifesaving in earthquakes. They also deal with topics like sexual harassment(骚扰).

“The teacher told us girls that we should try not to go out alone, especially at night. If someone tries to do bad things to us, we may hit their eyes or noses or kick their deadly parts. Then we should quickly run into a crowded place,” said Zhong Hua, a 13-year-old girl.

1.From the first paragraph of the passage, we know _______.

A. the robber was of medium height

B. Liu Xu was robbed on his way home

C. the robber ran away when he saw the policeman

D. Liu Xu jumped off his bike and called the police at once

2. Why didn't Liu Xu run after the robber when his bike was taken away from him?

A. Because the robber rode away too fast

B. Because he was too scared to run in such a situation.

C. Because the robber looked much stronger than an adult.

D. Because he remembered what he had learned in his first aid class.

3.The purpose of the first aid classes is to ______.

A. make Grade 1 students take the class once a week

B. help the 40 students to solve their safety problems

C. complete the required art education in the middle school

D. teach the teenagers how to keep themselves safe from danger

4.Zhou Min gives an example to show ________.

A. how they learn in the first aid classes

B. where they have their first aid classes

C. what they don't often do in her classes

D. who taught them role-playing in her classes

5.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. A survey shows that over ten thousand teenagers die in accidents in China every year.

B. Many students of Bao’an Middle School enjoyed themselves in first aid classes.

C. Girl students are taught what to do when someone tries to do bad things to them.

D. Topics for first aid classes are quite different from what the students have taught
