Not all memories (记忆)are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Wars and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and mental scars. Often they appear again in dreams.
Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill(药丸), which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce（减少）, or possibly erase(抹去) the effect of sad memories.
In November, some scientists tested a drug(药) on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body producing chemicals(化学品) that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the mental effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.
The research has caused plenty of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.
Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers’ troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.
“Some memories can destroy(破坏) people’s lives. They come back to you when you don’t want to have them in a dream. They usually come with very sad feeling.” said Roger Pitman, a scientist of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. “This could relieve(减轻) a lot of that suffering.”
But those who are against the research say that it is very dangerous to change memories because memories give us our identity(特质). They also help us all get away from the mistakes of the past.
“All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are. I’m not sure we want to erase those memories,” said Rebecca Dresser.
【小题1】The passage is mainly about __________.

A．a new medical invention

B．a new research on memories

C．a way of erasing sad memories

D．an argument about the research on the pill

【小题2】The drug tested on people can __________.

A．cause the brain to fix memories

B．stop people remembering their experiences

C．prevent body producing certain chemicals

D．erase the emotional effects of memories

【小题3】The word “scars” in Paragraph One is close in meaning to _________.

A．good stories	B．sad feelings
C．experiences	D．memories

【小题4】Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?

A．Some memories can destroy people’s lives.

B．People want to get away from bad memories.

C．Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.

D．The pill will reduce people’s sufferings from bad memories.

Car accidents happen everywhere every day and are the main cause of injury in the United States. In order to control the increasing（增长） accidents, many states have passed tough laws. Also, car manufacturers（制造商） have been trying to make safer cars to save lives.

However, as there are more and more cars and drivers on the road, these safety measure （安全措施）are not enough to stop the increasing car accidents. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration （管理部门）reports that a car accident happens every 10 seconds in the United States.

Car accidents may be caused by different reasons. Some accidents are caused by driver’s tiredness and illness or drunk driving. Some may be caused by speeding or running a red light. When this happens, by the time the driver realizes what has happened, it is usually too late. As for ages, young drivers usually have enough experience while elderly drivers of react slowly. Mechanical defects （机械毛病）such as a broken brake（刹车） are another cause of car accidents. Poor road and weather conditions can also be a cause.

Talking about different causes of car accidents can help us know what precautions（预防措施） to take beforehand. We should tell our friends or family members not to drive in poor health or after drinking wine. We should tell teenager drivers to be careful with road and weather conditions and let elderly friends understand their driving limitation(局限性)。Besides, we should have our car checked regularly（规律地）. The most important thing for us to remember, however, is that we should always follow the traffic rules.

1.What has the government done to try to control the increasing car accidents?

A．They try to make safer cars.               B．They try to build more roads.

C．They have passed tough traffic laws.         D．They make drivers have their car examined every month.

2.What does the underlined word” elderly” possibly mean?

A．Middle-aged       B．Young            C．Rather old         D．Teenage

3.Which of the following causes is different from the other three?

A．Tiredness         B．Illness            C．Drinking          D．a broken brake

4.Which has nothing to do with a driver’s age?

A．Teenager drivers.                       B．Not knowing the traffic rules

C．Reacting slowly                         D．Driving slowly.

5.In order to avoid accidents caused by mechanical defects, we should ___________.

A．not run a red light.                      B．drive the car when we are in good health

C．not drive when we are too old.             D．have our cars examined regularly.

 

In America: There are many more cars than in China. Maybe the number of cars in California is the same as the number in China. But there are fewer traffic jams and accidents in America than in China.

When he thinks being safe he may turn left.

3. Specific item: Such as parking, there are three kinds of lines (its color are white, blue or red) in the roadside. Every line may park different kinds of cars. There are streets in some residential(住宅区) areas, and no car can park at any time or any period time.

4. About the priority (优先权) of passengers and cars: At any case, passengers have the priority to cars. But only after passengers have passed the road and gotten the top of sidestep, cars may go ahead. In general, traffic rules of America are very specific, convenient and safe.

“Last week was Road Safety Week at Jason’s school. All the students had to take part in a talk on road safety which was given by a police officer. The following is what the police officer said. ”“Most traffic accidents shouldn’t happen. They happen because people are careless. A frequent  cause of traffic accidents is speed. Some people drive too quickly. This means that if they have to stop suddenly, they cannot stop quickly enough to avoid （避免）hitting other vehicles （车辆）or people. You need to remember this when you are crossing the street or walking along the sidewalk. ”

“It’s not only drivers who cause accidents, however. People on foot－pedestrians, and bicycle riders often cause accidents, too. Pedestrians sometimes walk out into the street without looking. You should always look on both sides before stepping into the street. ” “Do any of you ride a bike? Bicycle riders can cause accidents by changing directions suddenly or without warning other road users. Before you turn left, for example, you should check behind you to make sure there aren’t any cars, trucks or buses coming. You should show with your left hand to tell that you want to turn left. You should not turn until the street is clear. ”

“The rules of the road are very simple. If we learn them and obey （遵守）them, we should not have accidents any more. ”

They walk in the roads but not on the walkways. They get i  3  or out of cars in the middle of the road. Some do not take the trouble to wait for the green lights and s   4 cross the roads against the red lights.

Many people think accidents often h   5 in busy roads in large cities, but this is not always t  6 For example, Tokyo is one of the world’s l  7  cities and probably one of the busiest cities; however ,there are a few a  8 to pedestrians.

Text messaging, or simply “texting”, which allows people to send and receive messages on  mobile phones, becomes very popular today.

The advantages of texting are obvious. Texting helps to save money. If you have a few words to greet your families and friends on their birthdays or on some important festivals, sending messages can be cheaper than phone calling. Texting helps to save time. Even if you want to send a message to 100 people, you can do it one second. Texting helps you to “talk” to someone when he is too busy to answer the phone. Texting can also help you to “talk” to someone secretly if you don’t want others to hear what you are talking on the phone. These advantages are so amazing that many people are crazy about it. They hold mobile phones in hands all day long, send dozens of messages each day, and even text while driving or walking.

 However, texting has its disadvantages. Junk messages may come into your mobile phone box now and then. When your phone box gets too full, you can’t receive any more messages. You may therefore miss some important information.

What’s more, if you don’t do texting properly, for example texting while driving or walking, it can be dangerous. It can cause injuries and even death. It was reported that about 6,000 people were killed and half a million were injured for this reason each year. In Fort Lee, a small town in New Jersey, USA, three people died because they walked into traffic while texting in 2011. Two researchers at Stony Brook University, New York found that texters are 60% more probably to have an accident than others. When people are texting, they don’t notice other people or things around them. To reduce traffic accidents, all drivers of the UN are now not allowed to text while driving. About 32 countries have passed laws restricting the use of mobile phones while driving.

Texting is a wonderful way of communication. However, only when we use it properly, can we fully enjoy the fun it brings.

1. How many advantages of texting are mentioned in the passage?

A. Two.       B. Three.        C. Four.      D. Five.

2. What did the researchers at Stony Brook University find?

A. Texting is a good way of communication. 

B. 6,000 people were killed and injured.

C. Texters are easier to have an accident.

D. Many people text to greet families and friends.

3. The underlined word restricting probably means _________.

A. not telling   B. not allowing    C. enjoying   D. making

4. This passage is written to tell us that __________.

A. we should do less texting
