Driving a car at a high speed along a highway seems to be fun. You only need to follow the bright traffic signs beside the highway and it will take you where you wish to go. But to a London taxi driver, driving is not an easy job. A taxi driver needs to have not only good driving skills but also a good knowledge of the city of London, from the loneliest street to the popular restaurant around. He has to be at the service of all kinds of passengers (乘客) at all times.

A London taxi driver said the following about his job.

During the night it is usual for him to stop two or three times for some food. He said, “I never drink when I’m working, otherwise I’d lose my license (驾驶执照).”

He normally goes home between two and three o’clock in the morning. There are times he has to stay longer and try to make more runs. He said, “That’s the worst thing about working for yourself. If you don’t make money, no one is going to give it to you. ”

London taxi drivers not only “take” but also “give”. Every summer hundreds of poor children from London go for a day at the sea ― by taxi! There rides are paid by the taxi drivers. At the sea, they are met by the mayor (市长) , and a lunch party is also held for the taxi drivers and the children. After a happy day’s running around the beaches and visiting the market there, the children go home again by taxi, free of charge of course!

1.London taxi drivers try to make more runs sometimes mainly because __________.

A.they make a living by driving

B.they prefer to work for themselves

C.they want to help more passengers

D.they are used to working deep into the night

2.How do London taxi drivers “give”?

D.They play with some poor children at the sea for a day each summer.

3.Which of the following words can be used to describe London taxi drivers?

B.Rich and generous

C.Modest and easy-going

D.Hard-working and kind

Cars are lots of fun, but they could also be dangerous. We have to be careful when we drive them or ride in them.

It's always a good idea to put on your seat belt when you're in a car. Why? Think about this example: You put an egg on a skateboard and give it a push. If the skateboard hits a stone, it will stop, but the egg won't. It will fly through the air, hit the ground and break.

Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a stone, the egg won't go flying; it will stay safely on the skateboard.

Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts in 1849.

Air bags are also very important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn't enough. If the car is going really fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear them. Most new cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something, its air bags will come out quickly in less than one second to keep the people inside safe.

1.The passage mainly tells us                  .

A.two important ways to keep safe in cars

B.how air bags work to make cars safe

C.how seat belts work to make cars safe

D.why we must tie the egg to the skateboard

2.The writer gives the example of the egg to _.

A.tell us that eggs are easy to break

B.show how to wear a seat belt

C.show why it's important to wear a seat belt in a car

D.tell us what a skateboard is

3.Seat belts can make us safer because .

A.we are interested in them

B.they can stop us from hitting other cars

C.they can help us stay safely on the seats

D.they are made of strong materials

4.Air bags are important for cars because _.

A.they are made of plastic

B.they can also help us to keep safe in a car

C.they can keep cars running slowly

D.they are put in front of and next to the seats

5.Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?

A.It won't be dangerous if there are seat belts or air bags in a car.

B.Now most of new cars still have only one air bag.

C.When a car hits something, its air bags will come out a few minutes later.

D.Volvo was the first to use seat belts.

For many years I had a good life. My illness was reasonably (适度的) under control, I had a nice relationship with my husband, I did work, I didn't hate. It was, as I said, a good life.

But there's a saying that the good is the enemy of the best. I finally realized this one day, and began making my best life. I changed doctors and tried a new way that could relieve(减轻) my symptoms (症状) , rather than just making them easier to deal with. I started talking more with my husband and listening to what he had to say. And I quit(辞掉) my job and started working for myself.

I have the best life I've ever had. I'd call it great. It is possible there's a better life for me, which would then be my "best life" , but for now I don't think so. I've started a business I love. My husband and kids are wonderful. I have a good friend and I'm close to my older sister who lives in town. Could it get better? I suppose so. But for me I think this is the best life I can have right now.

Think more about your life. Where are you living? Are you in a job you just don't mind? What makes your life "good" ? Why isn't it great? What's the enemy of the best and what can you do about it?

Enjoy your best life. We're only here for a short while, and we all need to have the best possible time we can. It's like going to Disney World. If you spend too much time standing in line waiting for the ride, pretty soon your time's up. Get out of the "good" line and have your best life.

1.Which of the following is NOT included in the writer's "good life" ?

A.Having a job.

B.Having no hate.

C.Getting on well with her husband.

D.Living close to her good friend.

2.The writer quit her job because she________.

A.was ill

B.didn't like working

C.wanted to go for her best life

D.wanted to enjoy her good life

3.What did the writer do to make her best life?

①She visited other doctors.

②She started a business she loved.

③She played more with her kids.

④She talked more with her husband.

⑤She spent much time in Disney World.

A.①②④

B.②③④

C.①③⑤

D.①②⑤

4.What's the enemy of the best?

A.Illness.

B.A good job.

C.Being proud.

D.Being satisfied.

5.What is the best title for the article?

A.Attitude to Life

B.Making Your Best Life

C.What Makes Your Life "Good"

D.A New Way to Treat the Illness
