In America, Virginia Beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resort: brilliant beaches, a lively boardwalk, plenty of restaurants and nightspots, and amusement rides are sure to appeal to kids. Many believe Virginia Beach is at its best in the off-season, when the town is less crowded but the weather is still mild.

Meanwhile, some safety tips should be followed, enjoying the happiness and excitement the beach offers.

The number l safety tip concerns ocean safety: pay attention to Flag conditions posted on the lifeguard stands. Lifeguards post a red flag to warn when the ocean water is dangerous. Take them seriously! Tourists from land-locked regions are particularly easily attracted by the magic of the waves. However, a calm ocean can become risky without warning. Make sure you swim near a lifeguard. Swimming without lifeguard protection is almost five times as great as drowning at a beach with lifeguards.

Never swim alone. Many drownings involve single swimmers. When you swim with someone else, if one of you has a problem, the other may be able to get help, including signaling for assistance from others.

Don't fight the current. The facts show that some 80% of rescues by lifeguards at ocean beaches are caused by currents. These currents are formed by surf and gravity, because once surf pushes water up the slope of a beach, gravity pulls it back. This can create concentrated rivers of water moving offshore. If you are caught in a rip current, don't fight it by trying to swim directly to shore. Instead, swim parallel to shore until you feel the current relax, then swim to shore. Most rip currents are narrow and a short swim parallel to shore will help bring you to safety.

1.When coming to Virginia Beach, children can enjoy the happiness of________.

A. walking on the road made of wood             B. joining the nightspots

A. with a friend               B. within the sight of the lifeguard

C. with the current                D. as far as you like

4.From the passage, we can know________.

A. one in five persons swimming in the sea is drowned

B. if one with lifeguard were drowning, five persons without lifeguard would be

C. some 80% people drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguards

D. some 20% drowning by the currents are rescued by life guards

“You can use me as a last resort(选择), and if nobody else volunteers, then I will do it.” This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids’ lacrosse(长曲棍球) club.

I guess that there’s probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug at the heartstrings. I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren’t even on … At this point the unwilling parent speaks up, “Alright. Yes, I’ll do it.”

I’m secretly relieved because I know there’s real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out emails, and collects money for end-of-season gifts. Somewhere along the way, the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.

Still, most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close. That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more: Connecting to the community(社区) as you freely give your time, money, skills, or services provides a real joy. Volunteering just feels so good.

In that sense, I’m pretty sure volunteering is more of a selfish act than I’d freely like to admit. However, if others benefit in the process, and I get some reward too, does it really matter where my motivation lies?

1.What can we infer about the parent from her reply in paragraph l？

A.She knows little about the club.

B.She isn’t good at sports.

C.She just doesn’t want to volunteer.

D.She’s unable to meet her schedule.

2.What does the underlined phrase “tug at the heartstrings” in paragraph 2 mean?

A.Encourage teamwork.

B.Appeal to feelings.

C.Promote good deeds.

D.Provide advice.

3.What can we learn about the parent from paragraph 3?

A.She gets interested in lacrosse.

B.She is proud of her kids.

C.She’ll work for another season.

D.She becomes a good helper.

4.Why does the author like doing volunteer work?

A.It gives her a sense of duty.

B.It makes her very happy.

C.It enables her to work hard.

D.It brings her material rewards.

When you’re all comfortable and warm, watching the snowflakes pile up outside, you might wonder, what about the poor animals? No fire. No cocoa. No blankets. 　 1.

Well, it’s really people who aren’t designed to live in cold climates. 2.　 Geese have built-in down comforters. Bears have fur coats. Robins just fly south. But look at people. No fur. No feathers. No fair! And not everyone can jet off to Florida when it snows.

3.　　 Mainly, our big brains. Still, it’s taken us a long time to figure out how to cope with cold weather, and along the way we’ve borrowed a few tricks from the animals, too.

When you put on a jacket, you feel warm. Why? Because your jacket traps the heat your body produces. Your body uses the food you eat as fuel to stay warm. 　 4. Active muscles burn more fuel and produce more heat. That’s why you shiver when you’re cold. By shivering, your body is doing its best to get your muscles moving and warm you up.

5.　 Even in the coldest weather, your brain needs lots of warm blood. That’s one reason why your feet and hands get cold --- your body is sending heat to your brain. If you put on a hat, you will find that your feet and hands get warmer.

A. How do they stand it?

B. It can no longer trap a layer of warm air.

C. If you run or jump around, you feel even warmer.

D. So what do people have to help beat the cold?

E. Animals have lots of cool ways to survive the winter.

F. That’s because water carries heat away from your skin.

G. The most important part of your body to keep warm is your brain.
