There are little cars that may some day take the place of today’s automobiles(汽车). If everyone drives such a little car in the future, there will be less pollution in the air, there will be more parking space in cities, and the streets will be less crowded. The space now for one car of the usual size can hold at least three such little cars.

The little cars will cost much less to own and to drive. Driving will be safer, too, as these little cars can go only 65 kilometers an hour.

The cars of the future will be fine for going around the city, but they will not be useful for going far away. If the car is powered by electricity, it will have two batteries—one battery for the motor and the other for the horn (喇叭), signals (信号灯), etc. Little cars which are powered by gas will go 45 kilometers before needing to stop for more gas.

If big cars are still used along with the small ones, two sets of roads will be needed to set up in the future. Some roads will be used for the big, fast cars, and other roads will be needed for the small, slower ones.

1. What’s the advantage (优势) of the small cars?

  A. There won’t be so much pollution and the small cars won’t be so expensive as the big ones.

  B. It will be safer to drive these small cars.

  C. There will be more space for cars to park.

  D. All of the above.

2. Two sets of roads are necessary in the future in order to      .

  A. prevent car accidents

B. make the city more beautiful

  C. let small cars run fast

D. limit the speed of the cars

3. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

  A. A car of the usual size now is three times as big as the small car.

  B. The small car with a speed of 65 kilometers an hour is much more useless than a car of the usual size.

  C. the little car will be safer but cost more.

  D. The little car will need more gas.

4. The best title for this passage should be      .

  A. Big Cars and Small Cars

  B. How to Drive Small Cars

  C. Cars for Tomorrow

  D. Cars for Everyone

Speeding off in a stolen car, the thief thinks he has got a great catch. But he is in for an unwelcome surprise. The car is fitted with a remote immobilizer (发动机防盗系统), and a radio signal from a control centre miles away will ensure that once the thief switches the engine off, he will not be able to start it again.
The idea goes like this. A control box fitted to the car contains a mini-cellphone, a micro-processor and memory, and a GPS satellite positioning receiver. If the car is stolen, a coded cellphone signal will tell the control centre to block the vehicle’s engine management system and prevent the engine being restarted.  
In the UK, a set of technical fixes is already making life harder for car thieves. “The pattern of vehicle crime has changed,” says Martyn Randall, a security expert. He says it would only take him a few minutes to teach a person how to steal a car, using a bare minimum of tools, but only if the car is more than ten years old. Modern cars are far tougher to steal, as their engine management computer won’t allow them to start unless they receive a unique ID code beamed out by the ignition key (汽车等的点火开关).
In the UK, technologies like this have helped achieve a 31% drop in vehicle-related crime since 1997. But determined criminals are still managing to find other ways to steal cars, often by getting hold of the owner’s keys .And key theft is responsible for 40% of the thefts of vehicles fitted with a tracking system. If the car travels 100 metres without the driver confirming their ID, the system will send a signal to an operations centre that it has been stolen. The hundred metres minimum avoids false alarms due to inaccuracies in the GPS signal. Staff at the centre will then contact the owner to confirm that the car really is missing, and keep police informed of the vehicle’s movements via the car’s GPS unit.
56. What’s the function of the remote immobilizer fitted to a car?
A. To allow the car to lock automatically when stolen
B. To prevent the car thief from restarting it once it stops
C. To help the police make a surprise attack on the car thief
D. To prevent car theft by sending a radio signal to the car owner
57. By saying “The pattern of vehicle crime has changed” (Lines1-2,Para.3) Martyn Randall suggests that _____.
A. Self-prepared tools are no longer enough for car theft
B. the thief has to make use of computer technology
C. it takes a longer time for the car thief to do the stealing
D. the thief has lost interest in stealing cars over 10 years old
58. What is essential in making a modern car tougher to steal?
A. A GPS satellite positioning receiver
B. A unique ID card
C. A special cellphone
D. A code ignition key
59. Why does the tracking system set a 100-metre minimum before sending an alarm to the operations centre?
A. To give the driver time to contact the operation centre
B. To allow for possible errors in the GPS system
C. To keep police informed of the car’s movements
D. To leave time for the operations centre to give an alarm

A man hired a taxi outside the airfield. The cab had a woolen carpet with  26  lace edges. On the glass partition that  27  the driver's seat was a copy of a famous painting. Its windows were all clean.The customer was very much  28  and said to the driver, “I've never seen a nicer  29  .”“Thank you for your praise.”the driver answered  30  .

“The car isn't mine,” said the driver. “It belongs to the company. I used to be a  31  of cabs. When they returned, all of them were as  32  as garbage cans with cigarette butts and rubbish  33  here and there. On the seats and door-handles could be found something  34  like peanut sauce or, chewing gum.Why so? I thought if the car itself were very clean the passengers would most  35  be considerate and refrain from littering.”

“So when I got a  36  to be a taxi-driver, I began  37  my idea into practice-to tidy and  38  the car. Now before a new passenger gets on my car, I'd make a cheek and be sure it is in good order.When my car  39  after a day's work, it always remains  40  .”

When doing a thing, one makes efforts and wants to see the result. To change others, one has to make twice the  41  but get half the result. To change oneself is the other way round-more fruit with less effort. One had better ask oneself why one makes  42  on others much more than on oneself.   43  you take enough care to do as best you can for other people's sake, your efforts will yield results, If you  44  the inner world of your own, examine yourself and wipe out the dust and dirt, instead of fixing your eyes on other people, you will find a cheerful  45  for yourself and create a pleasant environment for others.
