While you are heating your food, you may wonder how close you can safely stand next to a microwave, and whether any radiation could escape from the device and potentially harm you.　

In theory, microwaves can heat body tissues in the same way they heat food, and at high levels, microwaves can cause burns and cataracts. 1. They will generally occur when people are exposed to large amounts of radiation escaping through openings in the oven. As a result, there is little cause for concern about using microwaves ovens, unless there is damage to the door.

Still, the FDA (美国食品和药物管理局) recommends that you check your microwave oven carefully and do not use it if the door doesn't close properly, or if it is "bent, warped, or otherwise damaged."　 2.

As far as injuries from microwave ovens go, the most common way people are injured is via heat-related burns from touching hot containers or overheated foods, or being exposed to exploding liquids. 3.

The agency also warns that, when you use a microwave to heat water in a cup, there's a risk of the water becoming "superheated," which means it has heated past its boiling point. 4.But just a slight disturbance to the water — which can occur when touching or picking up the cup — can cause an eruption of boiling water. This can lead to skin burns or scalding injuries, particularly on the face and hands. To prevent superheated water from forming, the FDA says people should not exceed the recommended heating time for water, as indicated in the oven's instruction book.

5.

A.But these types of injuries are very rare.

B.When this happens, the water does not appear to be boiling.

C.However, injuries from microwave radiation are unavoidable sometimes.

D.Though microwaves don't affect health as X-rays do, that doesn't mean they are risk-free.

E.People should use common-sense precautions when handling hot foods in microwaves.

F.Indeed, it's a good idea to follow the instruction book to help keep yourself safe when using it.

G.Besides, it is suggested that you don't lean against a microwave for too long during operation.

When you are at odds with someone close to you，the One-Minute Drill can show you how to express your feelings effectively-and how to listen more skillfully．All it requires is two individuals who are committed to improving their relationship．

Set aside at least ten minutes，and then sit facing each other．Decide who will be the Talker and who will be the Lastener．It makes no difference，because later you will change roles．

How to perform the One-Minute Drill

For approximately 30 seconds，the Talker can say anything he or she wants．Your job will be to express your thoughts and feelings．You can discuss problems you’ve had a hard time talking about．Remember to limit yourself to about 30 seconds．When the Talker finishes，the Listener will summarize what the Talker just said，as well as how the Talker was feeling inside，as accurately as possible．

The Talker now gives the Listener a grade between 0 and 100 percent to indicate how accurate the summary was．If the rating is 95 percent or more，you can change roles；the new Talker can continue with the same topic or move on to something entirely new．

However，if the grade is below 95 percent，the Talker should point out what the Listener missed or got wrong，and repeat the process until the overall rating is 95 percent or more．Then you can change roles and repeat the exercise for as long as you both like．

How it works

Thirty seconds of emotionally charged information is sufficiently challenging for anyone．Express your feelings in strong，clear，direct language，but as your partner will be listening attentively，you won’t need to shout，exaggerate or put your partner down．

The Listener should sit and listen respectfully without interrupting．Look into your partner’s eyes，but avoid using negative body language． If you like，take a few notes．

So the Talker might say：“When I come home from work， I feel tired and I need some quiet time．But you tell me I’m supposed to spend time with the kids．This makes me feel frustrated．I work hard and I’m exhausted at the end of the day．I feel like I deserve a little time to relax，not listen to more demands．”

In response，the Listener might summarize like this：“You just told me that you feel exhausted when you come home at night because you’ve been working hard all day．When l tell you l want you to spend time with the kids，you feel frustrated and ticked off because you’re tired and you need time to relax．You see me as very demanding，and you’re probably feeling like I don’t appreciate you．”

The first time you attempt the One-Minute Drill，you may get a low score．Don’t worry，because you’ll get up to speed quickly．Once you’ve tried this exercise a few times，you’ll find that you can nearly always get ratings of 95 percent or better on the first or second try．

1.Who is the One-Minute Drill intended for？

A．Those who are preparing for the interview in order to make a good first impression．

B．Those who have difficulty communicating with their colleagues or family members．

C．Those who have troubled relationships with their friends or family members and try to improve them．

D．Those who are to act some roles in a certain play for the first time in their life．

2.Which of the following is NOT true？

A．The Talker should talk about his/her thoughts and feelings in a brief way．

B．The Listener should listen carefully，respectfully and later summarize accurately．

C．After the Talker finishes talking，the Listener is to give him/her a grade．

D．In the One-Minute Drill，the Talker and the Listener change roles in the process．

3.From the example given in“How it works”，we can guess that the talk might be between ________．

A．father and son                   B．mother and daughter

C．sister and brother                                 D．husband and wife

4.What does the underlined part“ticked off”probably mean in this reading？

“BANG!” the door caused a reverberation (回声). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and me on the other side.

We were both in great anger. “Never set foot in this house again!” stormed father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.

The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I wandered aimlessly.

A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.

But now … I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.

I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.

I thought to myself: “Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?”

In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.

All the lights were off except father’s.

Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret.

This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.

The light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered, maybe… With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love----it’s second to none.

1.Which is the correct order of the following events according to the passage?

a. I opened the door and entered the house.

b. I ran out into the street angrily.

c. I reached the place where I lived and saw my house still brightly lit.

d. I recalled my happy childhood.

A. e, b, d, c, a　　　　　　 B. b, e, d, c, a

C. b, e, c, d, a　　　　　 D. e, b, c, a, d

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The author fully understood why he and his father had different thinking.

B. The author’s father didn’t approve of his stamp collecting.

C. The author and his father lacked communication.

D. The author’s father opened the door for him when he came back.

3.According to the author, why did his father often shout at him?

A. Perhaps the father was getting older and older.

B. Perhaps the son had already grown up.

C. Perhaps they never agreed with each other.

D. Perhaps the father had been used to doing that.

4.What did the author mean by the underlined sentence “My heart was frozen on this hot summer night”?

A. He felt lonely because there were so few people on the street.

B. He felt uncomfortable because it was a very hot night.

C. He was completely disappointed with his father.

D. He was at a loss because he had nowhere to go.

5.What was the author’s attitude towards his father at the end of the story?

A. He loved his father.

B. He was frustrated with his father.

C. He was afraid of his father.

D. He was dissatisfied with his father.
