Successful communication can sometimes mean the difference between life and death.Meet French NGO Telecoms Sans Frontiers (Telecommunications Without Borders (边际)).

Then in 2003, they started another base in Nicaragua. The next year they opened their Thailand base. Now if a disaster hits anywhere in the world, TSF is ready. They can send workers to a disaster area to set up communication systems within 24 hours.Once TSF arrives at a disaster area, they set up telephone connections (连接点）and Internet service. They share these services with other international helpers on the scene such as the UN or UNICEF. Mobile communication helps other volunteers do their jobs better.TSF also offers three-minute phone calls to local people who need to contact their loved ones. These communications can allow people to get together again after being separated (分开). Often the callers are moved to tears after speaking to a relative found to be still alive. Then the families can decide on a safe course of action for their family members.Since 1998, TSF has helped thousands of people in many countries.

I am careful to speak slowly and use words I know they will understand. Sometimes we confuse each other, though. Once I told my workmate “no dramas”, which means “no problem”. She thought I was saying bad words about her and got upset!But don’t worry. Experts say that it is the native speaker’s fault if they can’t understand you，not yours! “English speakers with no other language often lack awareness(缺乏意识) of how to speak English internationally,” said English language teacher Dale Coulter.The best way to avoid any trouble might be to ask for some patience. If you find it difficult to understand an English speaker，don’t be afraid to ask them to slow down and speak clearly.( )51.What may the underlined word “confuse” in paragraph 4 mean?municate with.B.Get angry with.C.Make it easy to understand.D.Make it difficult to understand.( )52.Why is it often more difficult to understand native speakers?A.Because they use lots of jokes and slang.B.Because they don’t want to be understood.C.Because they want to show off their EnglishD.Because they seldom communicate with others.

A person who eats such food can get an illness called food poisoning(食物中毒). Food poisoning is usually not serious, but some types are deadly. The symptoms (症状) of food poisoning usually begin within hours of eating the poisoned food. Fever (发烧) is one of the most common symptoms.Certain microorganisms(微生物) cause most types of food poisoning. Bacteria (细菌) and other microorganisms can poison eggs, meat, vegetables, and many other foods. After entering the body, these tiny living things have poisons that make people sick.Some chemicals (化学品) can also cause food poisoning. They are often added to food while it is being grown, or prepared. For example, many farmers need chemicals on crops to kill insects. Some people may have a bad reaction (反应) to those chemicals when they eat the crops.Some plants and animals have natural poisons that are harmful to people. These include certain kinds of seafood, nuts, seeds, beans, and mushrooms(蘑菇).When people deal with food properly, the risk of food poisoning is very small. Microorganisms grow quicklyin dirty places and in warm temperatures. This means that people should never touch food with dirty hands or put food on unwashed surfaces. Food should be kept in a fridge to stop microorganisms from growing. Meat needs to be cooked completely to kill any dangerous microorganisms. People should also wash food covered with chemicals before eating it. Finally, people should not eat wild mushrooms or other foods that grow in the wild. Some of these foods may have natural materials that are poisonous to humans. What’s more, some types of fish can be poisonous.Most people will be well from food poisoning after a few days of resting and drinking extra water. If people eat natural poisons, they must go to the hospital right away to have their stomachs emptied.（）54. Which of the following statements is NOT the fact?A.
