Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
(2017·南阳第二次质量预测)October 15th is Global Handwashing Day. Activities are planned in more than twenty countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap.
Experts say people around the world wash their hands but very few use soap at socalled critical moments.These include after using the toilet, after cleaning a baby and before touching food.
Global Handwashing Day is the idea of the Public Private Partnership for handwashing with soap. The goal, they say, is to create a culture of handwashing with soap. The organizers say all soaps are equally effective at removing diseasecausing germs (细菌). They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap.Rub it into all areas, including under the fingernails. Then，wash well under running water. Finally, dry your hands with a clean cloth.
The Partnership says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend washing.
Soap also helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs. And it usually leaves a pleasant smell, which increases the chances that people will wash again.
It also says that washing hands with soap before eating and after using the toilet could save more lives than any medicine.It could help reduce cases of diarrhea (痢疾), which is the second leading cause of child deaths, killing more than one and a half million children a year，by almost half.

(2017·厦门质量检测)A mother was devastated,_crying, yelling all she can in that dark corner. There was nobody to hear her yell and not a soul to calm her, because outside her house is a long winding lonely road. The wind was at rest and the leaves didn't rustle, silence filling the air. Loneliness was already killing her, but no one knows what made her cry?
Losing something you love with all your heart isn't really
the pain you can ever overcome. Radha lost her baby, her only means to live. She saw her child getting killed and the accident was terrible. One lonely night, she was walking down the street to get a breath of fresh air with her child hugged tight in her arms.
The whole time she walked with her child in her arms, the only thing that worried her was Aryan's future. She was imagining and feeling every day of the child's growth, and figuring what she would have in store for him. But who knows what's in store for us tomorrow, life can change in a second.
On that deserted road, were a few streetlights barely enough? It was this light that could be seen from a distance, but as it came closer it got brighter and brighter.That light changed Radha's life into darkness forever. A speeding car came down that road. The driver came at a speed of 110 kmph throwing beer bottles out of his half open window. He was definitely drunk, and the speed took everything in its path.Just then, there was a loud cry, and silence set in again.
But the mother wasn't hurt. She opened her eyes, unable to focus her eyes, and didn't see Aryan. After a few minutes when her sight cleared up she looked all over in a panic for her baby, but alas ... The child hadn't even seen life.
Simply, don't drink and drive.You_could_take_a_life，but_kill_a_number_of_people.
