（2022·江苏苏州·八年级校考期中）According to a new survey, students’ safety has become a big problem. For example, nearly 50% of students say they are worried about robbery (抢劫) on the way to and from school. Now in some big cities in China, some schools have been giving students an important course: self-protection. Students like this course because there are no exams or boring lessons. And they can learn how to save lives and how to stop danger before it really happens and does any harm (伤害).
Chen Haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No. 25 Middle School, gives young students advice on how to deal (处理) with different kinds of dangers.
If you are robbed
Keep calm. If you cannot cry for help or run away, give the robber your money. Try to remember what the robber looks like and tell the police later everything that happened.
If you are in a traffic accident
If a car hits you, you should remember the car number. If it is a bicycle, try to call your parents before you let the rider go. This is because you don’t know how badly you may get hurt.
If it is raining hard with much lightning
Don’t stay in high places and stay away from trees.
When there is a fire
Run away as fast as you can. Put wet things on your body and try to find an exit. Don’t take the lift (电梯) and don’t try to take anything with you.
If someone is drowning
If you can’t swim, don’t get into the water. Shout for help.
Remember that danger is never as far away as you think. Take care of yourself at all times!

Most people enjoy reading a good book after a long day or over the weekends. However, do you ever notice how you start feeling sleepy three pages into a book no matter how exciting it is If the thing happens to you, you are not alone. So what is it about reading that can make us feel sleepy
When you are reading, both your eyes and brain (脑) are working together. Your eyes follow the words across the page. Your brain interprets (解释) the letters and converts (转换) them into meaningful words, sentences, and paragraphs. As your brain works hard and your eyes feel tired, it’s only natural that they would need rest, leading to eyes slowly closing and sleep taking over. And reading line after line of anything can make your eyes want to have a rest.
The environment could be a big reason. People often create (创建) comfortable and quiet environment while they read. Scientists say these are the very same conditions that are perfect for sleep. Reading is also a great way to get away from all your troubling thoughts (想法) . Reading is enjoyable and relaxing, and it can help to put the mind and body in a calm situation. It can cause you to feel sleepy.
If you really need to finish a book, or you just want to read longer without feeling sleepy, here are some tips for you. First, find a comfortable place to read, but not too comfortable. Sit up in a comfortable chair instead of lying down on your back, so you don’t want to feel sleepy. Also make sure that the temperature isn’t too hot. Reading in an environment that’s too warm can make you sleepy. If you have trouble staying awake and you really need to finish that book before going to bed, try waking yourself up before you start reading. Do some light exercise, drink a cup of coffee, or take a cool shower. If you’re more active when you start reading, you’re more likely to make it to the end of that book!
71．What does Paragraph 2 and 3 mainly talk about
A．Tips for reading books without feeling sleepy.
B．Reasons for feeling sleepy while reading books.
C．Perfect conditions for sleep while reading books.
D．Importance of environment while reading books.
72．The underlined word “It” refer to (指) ________.
A．reading books B．having a rest
C．being in a calm situation D．creating a quiet environment
73．What will help readers read longer without feeling sleepy
A．Doing some light exercise. B．Reading books by themselves.
C．Reading in a very warm place. D．Lying down in a comfortable chair.

Now in some big cities in China, some schools have been giving students an important course: self-protection. Students like this course because there are no exams or boring lessons.

Chen Haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No. 25 Middle School, gives young students advice on how to deal (处理) with different kinds of dangers.
If you are robbed
Keep calm. If you cannot cry for help or run away, give the robber your money. Try to remember what the robber looks like and tell the police later everything that happened.
If you are in a traffic accident
If a car hits you, you should remember the car number. If it is a bicycle, try to call your parents before you let the rider go. This is because you don’t know how badly you may get hurt.
If it is raining hard with much lightning
Don’t stay in high places and stay away from trees.
When there is a fire
Run away as fast as you can. Put wet things on your body and try to find an exit. Don’t take the lift (电梯) and don’t try to take anything with you.

Most people enjoy reading a good book after a long day or over the weekends. However, do you ever notice how you start feeling sleepy three pages into a book no matter how exciting it is If the thing happens to you, you are not alone. So what is it about reading that can make us feel sleepy
When you are reading, both your eyes and brain (脑) are working together. Your eyes follow the words across the page. Your brain interprets (解释) the letters and converts (转换) them into meaningful words, sentences, and paragraphs. As your brain works hard and your eyes feel tired, it’s only natural that they would need rest, leading to eyes slowly closing and sleep taking over. And reading line after line of anything can make your eyes want to have a rest.
The environment could be a big reason. People often create (创建) comfortable and quiet environment while they read. Scientists say these are the very same conditions that are perfect for sleep. Reading is also a great way to get away from all your troubling thoughts (想法) . Reading is enjoyable and relaxing, and it can help to put the mind and body in a calm situation. It can cause you to feel sleepy.
If you really need to finish a book, or you just want to read longer without feeling sleepy, here are some tips for you. First, find a comfortable place to read, but not too comfortable. Sit up in a comfortable chair instead of lying down on your back, so you don’t want to feel sleepy. Also make sure that the temperature isn’t too hot. Reading in an environment that’s too warm can make you sleepy. If you have trouble staying awake and you really need to finish that book before going to bed, try waking yourself up before you start reading. Do some light exercise, drink a cup of coffee, or take a cool shower. If you’re more active when you start reading, you’re more likely to make it to the end of that book!
