Nowadays,cars have become a very common vehicle in our life.As the most important transport,cars have improved our modern life in many ways.However,cars also bring about so many problems for people,which should be given more attention than any time before.
Cars give people the ability to travel to any place they like.Many people begin to travel frequently.This helps people connect with each other better than before.A more obvious influence from cars is the large number of jobs that they create.Jobs in several fields open up thanks to cars,such as jobs in car factories,gas stations and highways. This is a huge positive influence on society because they greatly reduce the unemployment rate.
At the same time,the problems that cars cause seem to be more and more serious.A mass use of cars is bound to have some negative consequences.The widespread use of cars has led to serious traffic jams in cities.They have resulted in a reduction in the use of public transportation in many cities.The need to use and develop public transportation has been much discussed and confirmed.And also,car accidents create a number of injuries and deaths. There are hundreds of thousands of them worldwide every year.Gas let out from the engines of cars pollutes the air in cities around the world.Air pollution creates serious health problems and causes many people to die from it.It has become one of the most serious problems today.Efforts to develop pollution-free engines may be the final solution to this problem.
In conclusion,people should not only enjoy the benefits of cars,but also aim to deal with the problems cars have created.At the same time,the government should improve city traffic systems,encourage people to use public transportation,make efforts to improve road safety and encourage the usage of fuels that are low in pollutants.Only in these ways can the benefits of cars outweigh their harmfulness.

Floods are second only to fire as the most common of all natural disasters.They occur almost everywhere in the world,resulting in widespread damage and even death.Consequently,scientists have long tried to perfect their ability to predict floods.So far,the best that scientists can do is to recognize the potential for flooding in certain conditions. There are a number of conditions,from deep snow on the ground to human error,which cause flooding.
When deep snow melts it creates a large amount of water.Although deep snow alone rarely causes floods,when it occurs together with heavy rain and sudden warmer weather it can lead to serious flooding.If there is a fast snow melt on top of frozen or very wet ground,flooding is more likely to occur than when the ground is not frozen.Frozen ground or ground that is very wet cannot absorb the additional water created by the melting snow.Melting snow also contributes to high water levels in rivers and streams.
Rivers that are covered in ice can also lead to flooding.When ice begins to melt,the surface of the ice cracks and breaks into large pieces.These pieces of ice move and float down the river,They can form a dam in the river,causing the water behind the dam to rise and flood the land upstream.If the dam breaks suddenly,then the large amount of water held behind the dam can flood the areas downstream too.
Broken ice dams are not the only dam problems that can cause flooding.When a large human-made dam breaks or fails to hold the water collected behind it,the results can be devastating.Dams contain such huge amounts of water behind them that when sudden breaks occur,the great force of the water is like a great tidal wave.The dam waters can travel tens of kilometres,cover the ground in metres of mud and litter,and drown and crush every thing and creature in their path.
Although scientists cannot always predict exactly when floods will occur,they do know a great deal about when floods are probably going to occur.Deep snow,ice-covered rivers,and weak dams are all strong conditions for potential flooding.
1.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
("P" stands for "Paragraph".)
A. 
B. 
C. 
D. 
2.Why does frozen ground probably contribute to flooding when deep snow melts?
A. It is likely to form an ice dam.
B. It is too hard for water to run off.
C. It cannot take in more water.
D. It makes the snow melt too quickly.
3.Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word "devastating" in Paragraph 4?
A. Positive. B. Disappointing.
C. Impressive. D. Damaging.
4.What is mainly talked about in the passage?
A. How floods come into being. B. Where floods usually occur.
C. Why floods do huge damage. D. How to prevent floods effectively.

When the population of the port town began to suffer from poisoning, the police came to find the cause of the poison. They thought someone was poisoning the people on purpose but no one knew how it was possible. Soon people took the position that the pork was poisoned.

“I’m sorry to say your water supply is so heavily polluted; it is poisoned. I know who has been poisoning you all for such a long time. It is you who have been poisoning yourselves with pollution.
