One day a dentist was starting his morning work. Suddenly a man ran in. His face was red and he could only say “Quick! Quick!” The dentist thought he must be very ill. His assistant helped to make the poor man sit in a chair. The dentist gave the man some medicine to make him sleep. Then, he looked into the man’s mouth and pulled out all the bad teeth. As soon as the man woke up, he said in a low voice, “Quick, doctor, quick.”
“It’s all right now,” the dentist told him. “It’s over.”
“You don’t understand,” said the man, “I came to tell you your house is on fire.”

To many students, joining social media (社交媒体) “circles” is now more important than making new friends in real life.
And it’s easy. If you have a cell phone, you can download apps (应用程序) such as Sina Weibo, WeChat (微信) and QQ.
“I love to check my friends’ updates (更新). I also enjoy news and humor shared on social media,” Said Ou Wei, 14, from Hongling Middle School in Shenzhen. Because of enjoying these, Ou distances himself from real life. “I love playing the plane-shooting game on WeChat, but have no interest in playing flying chess with my classmates,” said Ou.
Deng Yunyun, 14, from Jianfeng Middle School in Shanghai, said that social media had influenced their life. Recently his school held a basketball match, and a student hurt his leg. Instead of giving him some help, students were busy with updating micro blogs about the accident.
“I think they need to learn to balance their real and online lives,” said Deng,
What makes parents and teachers worried is safety. “Many students are happy to tell their interests and personal information to their social media “friends”. Such information could bring them danger,” said Han Songjun, a teacher at Hongling Middle School.
For example, WeChat’s shake-shake function allows users to connect to other users close by. But the police warn about the danger of socializing in this way.
“Be careful. Do not use the locating (定位) function in any app, do not give your name, and do not post the photos of your residential area (小区),” said the police. What is the possible meaning of the underlined word “distances” in Paragraph 3?
| A．接近 | B．疏远 |
| C．超过 | D．破裂 |
The example (the basketball match) in Paragraph 4 is given to show _______.
| A．Deng Yunyun’s school held a basketball match |
| B．the students in the school are not friendly |
| C．students are very busy |
| D．social media have influenced the students’ life |
The police give many suggestions except “_______”.
| A．Do not share any news on social media |
| B．Do not use the locating (定位) function on social media |
| C．Do not give your name on social media |
| D．Do not post the photos of your residential area |
What does the writer want to tell us?
| A．Many students are using WeChat. |
| B．Social media makes our life more interesting. |
| C．Social media is very popular. |
| D．Social media can be bad and dangerous. |
Alice Munro was born in Wingham, Ontario. Her father, Robert Eric Laidlaw, was a fox and mink (貂) farmer, and her mother, Anne Clarke Laidlaw, was a school teacher. Munro began writing as a teenager.
