　　(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.

　　语篇解读：10月15日为“全球洗手日”，创建这个节日的目的是鼓励发展中国家的人们用肥皂洗手。

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.

　　Ⅱ.阅读理解

　　(2017·三明市毕业班质量预测)Several times my daughter had telephoned to say, “Mum, you must come and see the daffodils (水仙花) before they are over.” I wanted to go, but it was a two­hour drive from Lake Arrowhead. “I will go next Tuesday，” I promised, a little unwillingly, on her third call.

　　The next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy. Still, I had promised, and so I drove there. When I finally walked into Carolyn's house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren, I said, “Forget the daffodils, Carolyn! The road is invisible (看不见的) in the cloud and fog, and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see！”

　　My daughter smiled calmly and said, “We drive in this weather all the time, Mum. You will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience.”

　　After about twenty minutes, we turned onto a small road and I saw a small church. On the far side of the church, I saw a hand­lettered sign that read “Daffodil Garden”．

　　We got out of the car and each took a child's hand, and I followed Carolyn down the path. Then, we turned a corner of the path, and I looked up and gasped. Before me lay the most beautiful sight! There were five acres of flowers！“But who has done this？” I asked Carolyn.“It's just one woman，”

　　Carolyn answered. “That's her home，” Carolyn pointed to a well­kept A­frame house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory. We walked up to the house. On the patio (平台), we saw a poster. “Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking” was the headline.

　　The first answer was a simple one. “50,000 bulbs (鳞茎) ，” it read. The second answer was, “One at a time, by one woman.” The third answer was, “Began in 1958.”

　　I thought of this woman whom I had never met, who, more than fifty years before, had begun — one bulb at a time — to bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top.

　　语篇解读：一位女士在五十多年前开始种植水仙花。她一次种植一株，现在她5英亩的花园里已经有五万株水仙花，构成一幅令人陶醉的美景。1．The author didn't go to see the daffodils at first because ________.

　　任务型读写

　　(2017·合肥八中第三次段考)Invention is a creative process. An open and curious mind enables one to see beyond what is known. Seeing a new possibility, a new connection or relationship can spark (引发) an invention. Inventive thinking frequently involves combining concepts or elements from different fields that would not normally be put together. Sometimes inventors skip over the boundaries between separate fields. Ways of thinking, materials, processes or tools from one field are used as no one else has imagined in a different field.

　　Play can lead to invention. Childhood curiosity like playing in a sand box, imagination can develop one's play nature — an inner need according to Carl Jung. Inventors feel the need to play with things that interest them, and to explore, and this internal drive brings about interesting creations.

　　Inventing can also be an obsession (痴迷)．Inventors often imagine a new idea, seeing it in their mind's eye. New ideas can arise when the conscious mind turns away from the subject or problem; or when the focus is on something else; or even while relaxing or sleeping. An unusual idea may come all of a sudden! For example, after years of working to figure out the general theory of relativity, the solution came to Einstein suddenly in a dream “like a giant die making an unforgettable impress, a huge map of the universe summarized itself in one clear vision”．

　　Invention can also be accidental. Insight (洞察力) is also an important element of invention. It may begin with questions or doubt. It may begin by recognizing something unusual. It may be useful and it could open a new way for exploration. For example, the odd metallic color of plastic made by accidenally adding too much catalyst (催化剂) led scientists to explore its metal­like properties (性能). They then invented electrically conductive plastic and light emitting (散发) plastic — an invention that won the Nobel Prize in 2000 and has led to new kind of lighting, display screens, wallpaper and much more.
