November 9 is a time for us to learn a lot more about fire(火). This is what to do in a fire:
1. Shout out. Shout as loudly as you can, because people may be asleep.
2. Call 119. Never try to put out a fire yourself. Tell 119 where you are and what is on fire.
3. Keep down close to the floor. There is less smoke down there, so it's easier to breathe and see where you are going.
4. Test the door. If the door is cool, open it carefully. If the door is hot, do not open it! Try to find a different way out.
5. Get out. Do not stop to pick up anything. A fire can become very big in a few seconds!
6. Don't use the lift. Always use the stairs. The lift may go wrong and keep you inside.
7. Don't go back. Even if you have left your pet or favorite toy inside, do not go back for it. Animals have a very good    sense of smell. They often get out of buildings before people.

Smoking in indoor public places including public working places, public transport has been banned(禁止)in China since January 2011.Let’s look at the following advantages of banning smoking.

First, banning smoking will not only help in saving smokers from health problems and diseases, but also be good for passive(被动)smokers. When the smoker is smoking in a restaurant, the people around him are sure to breathe in the smoke and suffer from the diseases . If smoking is banned, spread(传播) of these diseases can be controlled.
Next, banning smoking will put stress on smokers to give up.  Since a smoker is prevented from smoking, he will learn how to live without smoking for long hours. When a smoker doesn’t smell or see anybody around him smoking, it might reduce his wish to smoke too. As a result, people have to give up smoking.
In public places ,smoking influences non-smokers to start smoking, especially adolescents. When teenagers see people around them smoking, they will follow them easily. So a lot of teen smokers will in crease(增加). Also asthma(哮喘)and other problems are often seen in children living around smokers. So if it is banned, these places will become safe for children and teenagers.
Smoking should be banned to increase work productivity(生产率).Workers who smoke usually have a break to smoke while working. So the number of their working hours is smaller.
Smoking should be banned beecause it causes air pollution. If it is banned, it will help keep the environment from getting worse.
________ doesn’t belong to a non-smoking place.

The second paragraph mainly wants to tell us ______.

According to the text, the underlined word “adolescents” means ____.

Which of the following statements in NOT true?

Bob was happy. He was at a new school, and students there were friendly. "Hi, Bob!" some students greeted him, but some students said, "Hi, Peter!" Bob didn't understand. He asked one student. "Why do some students call me Peter?"
"Oh, that's easy to answer," the students said, "Peter was a student here last year. Now he is at a different school. You look like Peter. Some students thought that you were Peter."
Bob wanted to meet Peter. He got Peter's address from a student and went to Peter's house. Peter opened the door. Bob couldn't believe his eyes. He looked really like Peter! Bob and Peter had the same color eyes and same smile. They had the same black hair. They also had the same birthday. And they both were adopted(领养)by two different families.
Bob and Peter found out that they were twin brothers. Soon after the boys were born, one family adopted Bob, and another family adopted Peter. Bob's family never knew about Peter, and Peter's family never knew about Bob.
Soon Bob and Peter's story appeared(出现)in the newspaper. There was a photo of Bob and Peter next to the story. A young man called John saw the photo in the newspaper. John couldn't believe his eyes. He looked like Bob and Peter! He had the same color eyes and the same smile. He had the same black hair. He had the same birthday. And he, too, was adopted by another family.
Later John met Bob and Peter. When Bob and Peter saw John, they couldn't believe their eyes. John looked really like them! Why did John looked really like Bob and Peter? You can guess. Bob and Peter are not twins. Bob, Peter and John are triplets.
