    Cars are too expensive for many people around the world to own. Not only that, many cities are already full of traffic, and many country areas have rough roads.

If you ride the subway or bus   2   you live, you can appreciate some of the benefits of public transportation.

           Which of the types of mass transit   5    (describe) below are you familiar with? If a regular bus can hold       dozens of people, imagine what a bus   6            (two) the size can hold! In Great Britain, there are many buses that are known as double-deckers (cars with two floors).

            Buses in Haiti are often very crowded. It’s not   7    (common) for passengers to actually sit on the rooftops. Buses are sometimes called “tap-taps”, because the    8     (ride) on the roof tap（敲击）when they want to be dropped off.

    A California family drives a car that could help protect the environment. When Jon and Sandy go to the store or to their daughters’ soccer games, they drive in high-tech style. They drive a $1 million, fuel-cell-powered car. It may be the world’s most expensive car and one of the most environmentally friendly cars. The FCX is the first fuel-cell-powered car to be used by a family anywhere in the world. The FCX uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel. Car makers have been working to develop vehicles that are better for the environment. They are developing cars that use fuel other than gasoline. And then what is fuel cell technology? Fuel cell technology works by changing the chemicals hydrogen and oxygen into water. This process produces electricity, and water vapor which comes out of the exhaust pipe. Most cars release dangerous gases such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Many scientists say these gases are major contributors to global warming. “The FCX is driven just like any other vehicle on the road, but without the gases which pollute the environment,” scientists say. Fuel cell technology has been around since the 1800s, but scientists have yet been to perfect it. They say it may take years before the technology is ready for widespread use. Another earth-friendly car is already on the market. Hybrid cars use both gasoline and an electric motor. They are becoming more popular with customers because they cut pollution and improve fuel efficiency.
    【小题1】Which of the following about the FCX is not true?

    A．It may be the most expensive car in the world.
    B．It is one of the most environmentally friendly cars.
    C．It releases dangerous gases to pollute the air.
    D．It uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel other than gasoline.
    【小题2】According to the passage, what is the major cause for global warming?
    A．Gases from FCX.B．Water vapor from cars.
    C．Hydrogen and oxygen.D．Gases from cars.
    【小题3】From the passage, we know that fuel cell technology ______.
    A．works by waterB．has a history for over two hundred years
    C．works by electricityD．has been widely used since the 1800s
    【小题4】We can infer from the passage that ______.
    A．future cars will be environmentally friendly
    B．there will be no gasoline for cars
    C．people can’t afford to buy cars in the future
    D．global warming has been stopped
    【小题5】Hybrid cars are popular because ______.
    A．they are the fuel-cell-powered cars
    B．they are energy-saving and cut pollution
    C．they are perfect cars in the world
    D．they produce no gases to pollute the environment

    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.
    【小题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.
    【小题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
    【小题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.
    【小题4】  The best title for this passage should be      .
    A．Big Cars and Small CarsB．How to Drive Small Cars
    C．Cars for TomorrowD．Cars for Everyone

    阅读表达。阅读下面的材料回答后面的五个小题。（每小题3分，满分15分）

    Joe Templer should have known better. After all, he works for a large auto insurance company. It won't hurt to leave the key in the truck this once, he thought, as he filled his gas tank at a self service gas station. But moments later, as he was paying the money, he saw the truck being driven away.

    In 1987, 1.6 million motor vehicles were stolen in the United States one every 20 seconds. If _________________, experts predict annual vehicle thefts could exceed two million by the end of the decade.

    Vehicle theft is a common phenomenon, which has a direct impact on over four million victims a year. The cost is astonishing.      

    Many police officials blame professional thieves for the high volume of the thefts. It is a major money maker for organized crime. Typically, stolen cars are taken to pieces and the parts sold to individuals. But as many as 200,000 cars are smuggled out of the country every year. Most go to Latin America, the Middle East and Europe.

    Only about 15 percent car thefts result in an arrest, because few police departments routinely conduct in depth auto investigations. When thieves are arrested, judges will often sentence them to probation（缓刑）, not immediately put them in prison because the prisons are overcrowded with violent criminals.

    One exception is a Michigan program that assigns 92 police officers to work full time on the state's 65,000 car theft cases a year. Since 1986, when the effort began, the state's auto theft rate has fallen from second in the nation to ninth.

    1.What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words.)

    ___________________________________________________________________________

    2.Why do you think Joe Templer should be blamed according to the writer? (Please answer within 10 words.)

    ___________________________________________________________________________

    3.Please fill in the blank with proper words or phrases. (Please answer within 10 words.)

    ___________________________________________________________________________

    4.Put the underlined sentence in the passage into Chinese.

    ___________________________________________________________________________

    5.What suggestions would you give the car owners to prevent the car theft? (Please answer within 20 words.)

    ____________________________________________________________________________
