According to its plan, primary schools must make sure that students in the first and second grades have at least four P. E. lessons a week. It also advised that students in the fourth grade should start to have swimming lessons. Do we need to make swimming lessons compulsory（义务的）in schools? Some people shared their opinions.In Poland, swimming lessons are not compulsory, but most of the schools have them. I think there should be swimming lessons for primary school students. Swimming is a lifesaving skill.—White Bear (Poland) In my country, swimming lessons are compulsory. I even got my lifesaving certificate（文凭）in school. So why not learn a skill as early as possible?—Mister Panda (France)I was born in a village. I learned to swim in a river near my home when I was 7 or 8. I used to play in the river with my friends every summer. However, I just learned dog paddle（狗刨式游泳）because nobody taught me. When I went to university, I had a chance to improve my swimming skills in P. E. lessons. Compared with my classmates, I felt lucky because most of them couldnˈt swim at all. I think itˈs a good idea for schools to teach students to swim. But in fact, not every school in China has conditions（条件）to do that.—Jet Feng (China)46. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A. The writer agrees that swimming lessons should be compulsory.B. In the future, every primary school in China will have swimming lessons.C. Students in Grade One in Guangdong have at least 16 P. E. lessons a month from 2020.D. Students in primary schools in Guangdong are happy to have swimming lessons.47. Which of the following do White Bear and Mister Panda agree?A. Swimming lessons shouldnˈt be compulsory in school.B. Itˈs helpful for primary school students to learn to swim.C. Itˈs difficult for little kids to get lifesaving certificates.D. Itˈs not easy to ha ve swimming lessons in primary schools.48. What does the underlined word “chance” mean in Chinese?A. 住址B. 天赋C. 权利D. 机会49. Why did Jet Feng feel lucky at university?A. Because he could swim but most of his classmates couldnˈt.B. Because he learned to swim from someone when he was young.C. Because he could have more P. E. lessons than in high school.D. Because he could be a teacher and teach his classmates to swim.50. In which column of a newspaper can you probably read this passage?A. HealthB. Education.C. Environment.D. Travel.答案1.【答案】C【解析】句意：地震袭击城市时，那个男孩正在院子里和两条狗玩。

This means that if they have to stop suddenly, they cannot stop quickly enough to avoid （避免）hitting other vehicles （车辆）or people. You need to remember this when you are crossing the street or walking along the sidewalk. ”“It’s not only drivers who cause accidents, however. People on foot－pedestrians, and bicycle riders often cause accidents, too. Pedestrians sometimes walk out into the street without looking. You should always look on both sides before stepping into the street. ”“Do any of you ride a bike? Bicycle riders can cause accidents by changing directions suddenly or without warning other road users. Before you turn left, for example, you should check behind you to make sure there aren’t any cars, trucks or buses coming. You should show with your left hand to tell that you want to turn left. You should not turn until the street is clear. ”“The rules of the road are very simple. If we learn them and obey （遵守）them, we should not have accidents any more. ”( ) 11.
