Cars are used for     . They are driven to offices and factories by workers who have no other way to      their jobs. When salesmen are sent to      parts of the city, they have to drive in order to       their products. Farmers have to drive into the city in order to shop for necessities.

When the children are too     to walk that far, their parents take      driving them to school. One       drives on Mondays, taking her children and the neighbors' children as well. Another mother drives on Tuesdays, another on Wednesdays and so on. This is       forming a car pool (拼车). Working people also form car pools, with three or four people taking turns driving to the place     they work.
More car pools should be formed in order to put       cars on the road and to use less oil.      is a great problem, and so is the traffic in and around cities. Too many cars are being driven. Something should be done about the use of cars.

“I’m really thankful to our government, for it provides us with such a good training program. The training greatly helps us live well. I will certainly study hard and learn the skills. Then I can          my family difficulties and do good to other people.” A learner on the job training program said, feeling          .
The learner’s grandfather is nearly 80 years old, and his mother is             in bed. So his father, who is a famer is the main           of the family. The family is poor.

At present, there are still a lot of poor people throughout the world. But it’s not good if we give only           to them.              ,we should give them a chance to learn new skills. Therefore, a technical training is very important to people in need, and they will learn the ability to              money. People can learn a lot of useful things in the training program and what they learn can help them on the way to find jobs.

Alice Munro has won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature. The short story writer is the first-ever Canadian, and the 13th woman, to win the prize. She has been called “the master of the modern short story”.
Alice Munro was born on July 10, 1931, just outside Wingham, Ontario, which has appeared in her stories many times.
Munro said that she began to escape into books when she was only ten years old. After her mother was diagnosed(诊断)with a serious disease, she started to throw herself into the world of books to make herself feel better.
Munro was a late bloomer(大器晚成) as a writer. She produced her first collection when she was 37 and didn’t get known outside Canada until the 1970s.
In fact, Munro works with an easy-to-read writing style, which is often described to be “practically perfect”. Her story, The Bear Came Over the Mountain, was made into a movie called Away From Her.
The 83-year-old author is often compared to Chekhov, the 19th century Russian who is considered one of the greatest short story writers in history.
Munro lived for many years in the small town of Clinton, Opt, but she was so shy that many people in the town didn’t know who she was. Munro said she was trying to be more social and accept invitations and go out to see people.
【小题1】Who is Alice Munro?
【小题2】How old is Alice Munro?
【小题3】Why did she escape into books?
【小题4】Can readers find any information about Wingham in Munro’s stories?
【小题5】What is the film Away From Her based on?
