   Several recent cases of violence(暴力)against students at U.S. colleges have made global headlines,arousing questions about the safety of America’s campuses. Yet government data show that the number of violent assaults(袭击)at colleges actually has decreased in recent years. And most schools have worked to increase safety through technology and student behavior.

It’s also important for students to take responsibility for their own safety. Being familiar with local neighborhoods and campus services is key. Personal-safety expert David Nance says the most important thing students can do is be attentive-which means not being distracted by smartphones or other devices.

The website for the group PEACE OUTSIDE CAMPUS,formed in response to the murder of a student from the University of Delaware in her off-campus apartment in 2005,lists additional measures students can take:

1. Don’t walk alone after dark or while drunk. Contact a friend to take you where you need to go.

2. When driving,keep your doors locked,and park in well-lit areas.

3. Don’t wear earphones or play music so loudly that you are unaware of your surroundings.

4. Trust your instinct(本能)and don’t worry about overreacting. You’re better safe than sorry.

5. Avoid entering elevators with strangers. When this is unavoidable,stand by the control panel and,if faced with a threatening way,push the emergency alarm and all the floor buttons. Don’t press the stop button.

6. Don’t hold the door open for a stranger attempting to enter the house,even if it seems rude. Ask them to identify themselves.

7. Post the police’s and fire departments’ numbers by every phone,and put them into your cellphone.

8. Label your emergency contacts as ICE(In Case of Emergency)in your cellphone so officials will know who to contact for important personal or medical information.

【小题1】What can we learn from David Nance's words?
A.Students nowadays prefer to listen to music.
B.Modern electrical devices are pretty popular among students.
C.Students always bury themselves in using electrical devices.
D.Students had better put away their smartphones on campus.
【小题2】What should a student do when facing a threat in the elevator according to the passage?
A.Get close to the door.
B.Stop the elevator instantly.
C.Hit the control panel.
D.Push the alarm button.
【小题3】Which of the following statements about keeping safe on campus is RIGHT?
A.Follow your instinct and avoid overreacting.
B.ICE in your cellphone will benefit you a lot.
C.Loud music will raise your awareness of the surroundings.
D.Hold the door open politely for the strangers.
【小题4】What’s the main idea of the passage?

   While some high school seniors begin to enjoy writing their college essay, others fail to see the importance of it. In some cases, these 600 words determine acceptance or a rejection. 【小题1】 It is also a process of self-discovery. Here are some helpful tips.

1. Have fun! When you get upset, it is reflected in your work. Relax, breathe and realize that this is the time to expose a side of you that the grades cannot.

2. Don’t settle for basics — be creative! 【小题2】 Stay away from volunteer work, your dead dog and vacations. Admission counselors (入学辅导员) see thousands of essays a month; make sure your essay is distinct from your experience and personality. Do not focus on what you think they want you to write, but what is actually significant to you.

3. 【小题3】 Although it is effective to appeal to the emotions of an admission counselor, I do not recommend writing an essay about sad stories. Self-pity can be annoying, and most admission counselors do not want that to be their first impression of you. 【小题4】 Make sure that the story is focused on your growth, not on the struggle.

4. Your essay is not a longer version of your resume (简历). If you send in a resume, there is absolutely no need to restate what is on it. Many students like bragging (吹嘘) about how much they do. It is amazing that you are involved, but admission counselors do not only want to hear about how much you do, especially if they already see this on your resume. 【小题5】

Good luck on your college essay!

A.It was received well by many.
B.Don’t try to make yourself a victim.
C.You can talk about how a work changed your life.
D.The worst thing you can do is pick an ordinary topic.
E.Creating the college essay is supposed to be a fun and exciting task.
F.They want to see aspects of you that cannot be shown on a resume.
G.The only exception to this is that you have an inspiring struggle.

   Penguins are the number-one attraction for many visitors to Antarctica. If you go on a ship that is allowed to make shore landings, you may see them. But to get a close look at penguins, you have to be smart.

First of all, keep in mind that Antarctica’s visitor rules require that you remain at least five meters away from the penguins in order not to disturb them. You could easily become responsible for the death of a little penguin or the destruction of an egg if your too-close presence should disturb a penguin parent.

If a penguin is trying to move away from you, you must stop what you’re doing and back off even if you’re farther than five meters away. However, the rules don’t prevent a curious penguin from approaching within five meters of you — as long as the bird makes the move, not you.

Little penguins, in particular, are quite curious. I’ve seen several lucky tourists who were astonished to find that little penguins came right up to them. If a penguin comes extremely close to you, remember that you are not allowed to touch or hold it.

Here are more tips for getting close to penguins.

Ignore the smell: where penguins live is filled with guano(海鸟粪)and the smell takes some getting used to.

Be quiet because loud noises make penguins nervous. Fast or sudden movements signal meat — eating animals to penguins, and they react accordingly, so slow down when you walk around them.

Since it may take half an hour or more before the penguins get used to you, you need to be patient. Put away your camera — too often people are so focused on getting the pictures that they forget to look with their own eyes, but most of your most memorable experiences in Antarctica will be marked in your mind, not on a roll of films.

【小题1】What will happen if visitors disturb penguins according to Paragraph 2?
A.Visitors may step on a little penguin.
B.Penguin parents may break their eggs.
C.Visitors are easily attacked by penguins.
D.Penguin parents may attack other animals.
【小题2】When a penguin is trying to move away from you, you’d better ____________.
A.step backB.try to stop it
C.go after it quietlyD.keep five meters away from it
【小题3】If a penguin comes very close to you, ____________.
A.you may hold it
B.you may touch it gently
C.you should stay where you are
D.you should walk away carefully
【小题4】The author advises visitors to Antarctica to ____________.
A.ignore loud strange noises
B.take as many pictures as they can
C.allow penguins to get used to them
D.stay away from meat-eating animals
