Floods are one of the most dangerous natural disasters. They often come suddenly, with almost no warning. Fast-moving floods can pull trees out of the ground, wash away houses, and even make bridges fall down. These floods can change a quiet area into a dangerous mess in just minutes.
Drowning (溺水) is a big risk in floods. The water moves so fast that it’s hard for people to swim. What’s worse, the water carries all kinds of debris (残骸) that can cut or hurt people.
Floods bring more troubles besides the water itself. They can cut off power, so fridges stop working and food goes bad quickly. People may be unable to call for help or learn about the latest danger. Roads get blocked, so no one can transport water or food to people in need.
What should we do to stay safe from floods? If there’s a flood warning, find a safe place right away. Never walk, swim, or drive in flood water: just 15 cm of moving water can push you down, and 30 cm of water can sweep a car away.
If you are stuck in a flooded building, go to the highest floor. Don’t go to the attic (阁楼) — you might get trapped (受困) there with no way out. Only climb to the roof if you have to. Once there, draw “SOS” on the roof so that rescue teams will find you more easily.
Floods are scary, but learning these safety rules can help keep you out of danger when trouble comes.
( ) 31. Floods are dangerous and often come with almost no warning.
( ) 32. It’s hard for people to swim in fast-moving floods.
( ) 33. Floods can cut off power and get roads blocked so it may be difficult for people to get help.
( ) 34. Just 15 cm of moving water can sweep a car away.
( ) 35. It’s safe to stay in the at tic if people are stuck in a flooded building.

At an early age, we start learning how to manage money by watching our parents’ spending habits. Don’t worry if we haven’t learned well how to save or spend money. The following life lessons about money can help us form good spending habits.
Money doesn’t grow on trees. As kids, we don’t often think about where money comes from. We need to know that our parents work hard to make money, and that it may be used up one day. Going to their workplaces to watch how they work is a great way to understand money is not that easy to make.
We shouldn’t spend all our money in one go. It’s important for us to have a budget. In other words, we need to think about how much money we have and what we really want to spend it on. Our pocket money can’t cover everything we want, so we should make smart spending choices.
We should set a clear goal and watch our money grow. If we wish to own a new bicycle but can’t afford it, we can save our pocket money. How? Write down how much money we have in a notebook and watch it grow. After we have enough, we can buy that wonderful bicycle we’ve dreamed about! Reaching our goal will greatly satiate us.
We can talk with our parents about how money is used and where money goes. Do you know what a bank account is? If not, communicate with our parents. We can also go to the supermarket with our parents to experience how money is spent in the real world.
Without doubt, we should treat money in a right way. Actually, learning about money isn’t a hard job. From these lessons, we can get a sense of money management and right money values step by step!
( ) 36. Where does money come from according to the text?

A. Buy a wonderful notebook. B. Make a free spending choice.
C. Set a goal of saving money. D. Have an experience of shopping.
