BUKHANNON, West Virginia—Two rescue teams slowly moved along a two-mile path on Monday night to the site of a coal mine explosion that trapped 13 miners, who had not been heard from since the early morning accident.

Meanwhile, at a nearby church, more than 250 family members and friends gathered, waiting for updates（最新报道）on the rescuers’ progress.

The miners were trapped at about 6:30 and many families weren’t informed of the accident until about 10 a.m-more than three hours after it happened. “It’s very upsetting, but you’ve got to be patient, I guess,” said John Helms, whose brother, Terry, was trapped in the mine.

The trapped miners were about 260 feet underground and about 10,000 feet from the Sago Mine’s entrance, said Roger Nicholson, general counsel from International Coal Group.

At a late night news conference, Nicholson said one team had advanced about 4,800 feet in the four hours since entering the mine just before 6 p.m. Another team entered the mine about 30 minutes later.

He said the crew was very experienced, with some members having worked underground for 30 to 35 years. The miners were equipped with about one hour of breathable oxygen each. The company has not released the names of the miners.

The teams test the air about every 500 feet, and have to disconnect (remove) the power to the phones they use to communicate with the surface before doing that. “We don’t want to be energizing anything if it’s in an atmosphere with burnable gases,” Kips said. The cause of the explosion was not immediately known. High levels of carbon monoxide were detected shortly after the explosion, which delayed rescue efforts, but those levels have since subsided（减退）, authorities said.

1.According to the passage, we can infer that ______.

A. all the miners who were trapped underground were still alive

B. communication with the trapped miners was cut off

C. the two rescue teams entered the mine at the same time

D. the rescue started as soon as the accident happened

2.If the first team advanced at an average speed, they could dig about ______ per hour.

A. 1,000 feet           B. 2,400 feet           C. 1,200 feet                D. 4,800 feet

3.Where can the passage be seen?

A. In a magazine.                                   B. In a newspaper.

C. In a science book..                          D. On an advertisement.

4.Which of the following shows the position where the miners were trapped?

Cambodians are continuing to mourn the death of King-Father Norodom Sihanouk, who died in Beijing this week. In an exclusive interview with CCTV, China’s ambassador to Cambodia, Pan Guangxue, says Sihanouk made indelible(不可磨灭的) contributions to Sino-Cambodian relations and his death will not affect the friendship between the two countries.

Since its founding, the People’s Republic of China has maintained close contact with Cambodia. Bilateral(双边的) trade volume has increased rapidly in recent years, from 200 million US dollars in 2002 to nearly 2.5 billion US dollars in 2011.

China is now not only Cambodia’s third largest trading partner, but for many years has been Cambodia’s number one investor. Norodom Sihanouk, Cambodia’s “King-Father” pioneered the relationship.

Pan Guangxue said, “If we look back at previous decades, I think Sihanouk made the right choice, a choice good to Cambodian national development. It was because of his commitment to the development of Sino-Cambodia friendship that we’ve achieved what we have today.”

In 2010, the two countries established a comprehensive strategic partnership, during its Prime Minister Hun Sen’s visit to China.

And 2013 is set to be China-Cambodia Friendship Year.

Pan Guangxue said, “Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said on many occasions that China does not tell Cambodia what to do or what not to do. China does not point fingers at Cambodia. I think this is a true evaluation of Sino-Cambodian relations. China pursues an independent peaceful foreign policy of non-alignment(不结盟) and non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries.”

The ambassador says Sihanouk’s death is a huge loss to both China and Cambodia, but that bilateral relations will not be affected.

Pan Guangxue said, “I believe the bilateral relationship will be sustained and grow even stronger.”

With both countries enjoying the benefits of the fruitful relationship, the governments of China and Cambodia have promised that Sihanouk’s legacy(遗产) will continue to be the foundation of even stronger ties.

1.We can learn from the passage that Sihanouk ________.

A．is the present Cambodian Prime Minister

B．went for an interview with CCTV the other day

C．made the right choice to encourage investment in China

D．had great influence on Sino-Cambodian relations

2.The following facts can prove the good Sino-Cambodian relations EXCEPT that _______.

A．Sihanouk was committed to Cambodian national development

B．the two countries has set 2013 to be China-Cambodia Friendship Year

C．the two countries has established a comprehensive strategic partnership

D．trade volume between the two countries has increased sharply in recent years

3.What is Pan Guangxue’s opinion on Sihanouk’s death?

A．It will more or less damage the bilateral relationship.

B．It will continue to be the foundation of even stronger ties.

C．It means a huge loss for both countries in economy.

D．It has very little negative effect on the bilateral relationship.

4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A．China-Cambodia Friendship Year

B．China-Cambodia friendship to continue

C．Sihanouk’s death—a great loss to Cambodia

D．China’s peaceful foreign policy to continue

高一英语阅读理解简单题查看答案及解析

As the longer life and rapid decrease in the labor­age population are expected,　 extending the retirement age(推迟退休年龄) is a wise choice for the government. This is why at the Third Plenum (全会) of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (中国共产党十八届三中全会)it was agreed that there should be a study on the subject.

It is undoubtedly necessary for the government to adjust its policies to meet the challenge of an increasingly aging society.　 According to the government, China’s senior citizens above the age of 60 will reach 200 million, about 14.8 percent of the population, by the end of this year, and the figure is expected to grow to 248 million by the year of 2020 and more than 400 million by 2050, when they will account for 30 percent of the population.　 Meanwhile, extending the retirement age will result in several benefits — slowing the rapid increase of the retired, reducing the rapid decline in experienced workers and keeping the labor­age population at a considerable size for stable economic development.

However, before the policy is drawn up there will need to be thorough research, so there can be careful consideration of the interests of all parties to make sure that the new policy does not harm the interests of workers in different jobs.

There are 112 million workers who do heavy physical labor and may not be willing to put off their retirement to a later age. And the opinions of government employees and other white­collar workers will also need to be listened to before a policy is introduced to extend their retirement to a later age.

No doubt it will be impossible to please all, but it should be possible to make the policy acceptable to the most. Anyway, any extensions that will hopefully help reduce the negative influences of our increasingly aging society also need to be fair.

1.The text mainly tells us________.

A. China is going to enter an aging society

B. All people agree to accept the policy

C. Extending the retirement age will bring about multiple benefits

D. China has planned to extend the retirement age

2.Which of the following is TRUE?

A. China’s old people above the age of 50 will be about 14.8 percent of the population.

B. Extending the retirement age may contribute to the economic development of China.

C. Extending the retirement age may reduce the experienced workers.

D. There will be about 248 million elders by 2050.

3.What can be inferred from the text?

A. All the workers will be pleased with the policy.

B. The white­collar workers go against the policy.

C. There can be many difficulties in extending the retirement age.

D. The government should please all so as to give up the policy.
