2.Emergencies(緊急情況) don't happen very often.But when they do,you want to get help first.No one wants to spend time looking up the phone numbers.
In1968,the United States government wanted one number that people could call for emergencies.They decided that 911was easy to remember and people could dial(撥打) it quickly.The very first 911call was made on February 16,1968,in Alabama.Today,911is used for emergencies in most parts of the United States and many parts of Canada.
Other countries may use other numbers.In Great Britain,it's 999.In China,it's 110.If you're not sure which emergency is used in your area,check your phone book.
When to call
Never call 911as a joke or just to see what might happen.The only time you should call 911is when a person is badly hurt or in danger right now!So call when there's a fire,a car accident,or sudden sickness,etc.
When in an emergency call
When you dial the 911operator(接線員),it's always OK to give out your information.Speak slowly and clearly when you explain what's happening.What happened!Where are you?Who needs help?
Don't hang up(掛斷)!
If you have to call 911,don't hang up until the operator tells you it's OK to do so.That way,you can be sure that the operator has all the information to offer help fast.
A dog named Faith dialed 911when her owner who was in a wheelchair fell and needed help.She had been taught to use a speed-dial(快速撥號(hào)) function.
 61.The emergency number 911was first used inB in the USA.
A.1958
B.1968
C.1978
D.1999
 62.Why was 911chosen to be the emergency call in the United States and Canada?C
A.Because other countries also used the number.
B.Because it was suggested by the phone company.
C.Because it was simple and easy to remember and dial.
D.Because it was also used in many parts of China.
 63.People can't call 911whenB.
A.a(chǎn) bus hits a boy badly
B.a(chǎn) girl feels bored (無(wú)聊的)
C.a(chǎn)n old people fell down,unable to stand up
D.some people can't get out of a burning(燃燒的) building
 64.Which is the right thing to do?A
A.Wait for the operator's words to end the call.
B.Tell the operator what has happened and hang up quickly (掛斷).
C.Test if your phone can get through to 911.
D.Tell the operator everything as quickly as possible.
65.Which is not true according to the passage?D
A.911is an emergency number almost throughout the United States.
B.We haven't got a worldwide universal (全球通用的) emergency number yet.
C.Usually phone books list (列出) emergency call numbers.
D.The dog Faith pressed the three numbers 9-1-1.

53.What is an emoji?An emoji is a cute little picture in our digital lives
54.Why did she have to appear in a court?Because she threatened the school and computer harassment by using gun,bomb and knife emojis in a post on Instagram,a photo-sharing website in December
