When other nine-year–old kids were playing games , she was working at a petrol station.When other teens were studying or going out , she struggled to find a place to sleep on the street.But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholar and gain entry to Harvard University.
Her amazing story has inspired a move , “ Homeless to Harvard : The Liz Murray Story ”, shown in late April.
Liz Murray , a year- old American girl , has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination.
Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted.There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house.Liz was the only member of the family who had a job.
Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old.The effect of that loss became a turning point in her life.Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died , she decided to do something about it.
Liz went back to school.She threw herself into her studies , never telling her teachers that she was homeless.At night , she lived on the streets.
“ What drove me to survive had to do with understanding , by understanding that there was a whole other way of being.I had only experienced a small part of the society , ” she wrote in her book “ Breaking Night ”.
She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on.She used the benefits that come easily to others , such as a safe living environment , to encourage herself that “ next to nothing could hold me down ”.
She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University.But Liz decided to leave her top university for a couple of moths earlier this year in order to take care of her father , who has also developed AIDS.“ I love my parents so much.They are drug addicts.But I never forget that they love me all the time.”

Today’s drivers may feel shocked by the high price of petrol when they drive to the gas station. However, the car industry has the technology to solve the problem. It’s the hybrid car(混合动力汽车).

What is a hybrid car? Any car that uses two or more sources of power is a hybrid car. Most hybrid cars on the road right now are petrol-electric hybrids. The petrol-electric hybrid car is just what it sounds like — a cross between a petrol-powered car and an electric car.

A gas-powered car has a fuel tank(油箱), which supplies petrol to the engine. An electric car, on the other hand, has a set of batteries that provides electricity for the car.

To be useful to you or me, a car should be able to run at least 300 miles (483 km) before refueling, be capable of(能够) being refueled quickly and easily and fast enough to keep up with the other traffic on the road.

A petrol car meets these requirements(要求)but produces a large amount of pollution. An electric car, however, produces almost no pollution, but can only go 50 to 100 miles (80 to 161 km) between recharging(充电). And the problem has been that the electric car is very slow and inconvenient to recharge.

A petrol-electric car combines the advantages of the two power sources into one system that uses both gas power and electric power. Some experts believe that the hybrid car is “the next generation of smart cars”. A hybrid car can go up to 50% further than a traditional car can on the same amount of gas! It saves driver’s money on gas and cuts air pollution!

1.What do the underlined words “the problem” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A.The price of petrol goes up and down.

B.The gas-powered car is sold at a high price.

C.The gas-powered car causes air pollution.

D.The price of petrol keeps going up.

2.How many sources of power do most hybrid cars use?

A.Two.

B.Three.

C.Four.

D.It depends.

3.The author thinks that electric cars _____.

A.are smart vehicles

B.are popular vehicle

C.are not practical

D.are not slow

4.Some experts believe that the hybrid car will have a large market in future because _____.

A.it is just powered by renewable energy

B.it saves money and is eco-friendly

C.it goes further than a traditional car

D.it is safe, cheap and produces no air pollution
