“Why does the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side!”
That’s an old joke in the west, but it came to my mind again when I saw people crossing the road at the intersection of Shanxi Road and Huaihai Road in Shanghai.
When the traffic light was red, a group of people were waiting for the light to change. Suddenly one man began rushing to the other side of the road. Soon others followed him at the crossing and more people did the same. Just like chickens, they didn’t mind the honking horns(喇叭声) and kept crossing the road in a mess.
Every year several thousand people are either killed or hurt on the roads in Shanghai. And at least one third of them were jaywalking(乱穿马路). Jaywalking is very common in Shanghai. It seems that jaywalkers are not afraid of the danger to themselves.
Traffic laws are to keep people safe. So we should obey them, and have good road-crossing habits. When someone starts to jaywalk, we should stop him, and never follow him. That way we can avoid the traffic accidents.
小题1:The underlined word “intersection” here probably means “       ”.
A.roadB.bridgeC.crossingD.traffic
小题2:The writer saw people      in Shanghai that day.
A.crossing the road in a messB.waiting for the green light patiently
C.crossing the road with chickensD.hurting each other in the street
小题3:How does the writer like what he saw in Shanghai that day?
A.He thinks it’s OK.B.He thinks it’s wrong.
C.He has no idea of it.D.He doesn’t mention it

小题1:C
小题2:A
小题3:B
短文大意:这篇短文中作者主要记述了自己在伤害看到的一幕人们过马路的场景,一次来提醒我们要注意遵守交通规则。
小题1:联系下文of Shanxi Road and Huaihai Road in Shanghai.描述,可知此处指的是两条路的交叉路口。故选C。
小题2:根据第三段Suddenly one man began rushing to the other side of the road.…… kept crossing the road in a mess.,描述,可知人们乱糟糟的过马路。故选A。
小题3:根据短文最后一段描述,可知作者认为那种过马路的方式是不对的。故选B。

Some find that they can’t do without people.
“My biggest need is my friends. Without them, I wouldn’t do much,” said Adrian Fernandez, a 14-year-old boy.

Sometimes, the things teenagers can’t do without are strange.
Take 14-year-old girl Hannah Sacchini for example. “I cannot live without lip salve, especially in winter,” said Hannah Sacchini. “I go mad if my lips get dry.”
Of course, today everybody uses mobile phones and computers. Some teens can’t live without these high-tech (高科技的) things.
Justin Beck, a 15-year-old boy, feels like this: “I would not be able to live without my iPod. I use it for so many different things. I always have it with me,” he said.
