What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves? Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping. But none of them are worried about the road ahead.
Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on driverless cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has gotten a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.
These cars are now still in the testing stages. But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driven cars could be put into use very soon.
The cars already have many features（特點(diǎn)）allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions.
Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driven car might be possible.
The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car may be able to prevent these. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example, doesn't believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies can also be mistakes.
（1）The main purpose of the first paragraph is to _____
A.make readers wonder about self-driven cars.
B.get readers to pay attention to road safety.
C.tell readers to keep away from heavy traffic.
D.tell readers what self-driven cars look like.
（2）From the passage, we know that the testing self-driven cars can already ______
A.avoid being hit by other vehicles on roads.
B.control the speed in dangerous situations.
C.turn around when getting near objects.
D.pick up their owners.
（3）What might make the self-driven cars run safely according to the passage?
a. e-reading b. wireless signals c. cameras d. GPS
A.a, b, c
B.a, b, d
C.b, c, d
D.a, c, d
（4）What is Whit Drake's attitude toward the safety of the self-driven cars?
A.He has doubt about it.
B.He believes it completely.
C.He doesn't care about it.
D.He thinks its technologies are convincing（使人信服的）.

D
The government in China ended his one-child policy and let families have two children instead in 2015.
A Chinese Communist Party statement gave a number of reasons for the change in policy. The statement said the change is meant to balance population development, stop a falling birth rate(出生率)and strengthen the country's labor force(勞動(dòng)力). China, with the largest population in the world, started the one-child policy in 1980. But the government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children. For example, some families in the countryside could have two children, if the first-born is a girl.
In 2013, the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child.
Jiang Quanbao, a teacher and population expert, explained how Chinese families react(反應(yīng)) to the newest policy. "Too many young people in the cities are no longer interested in having a second child," he said. "People in the countryside are more interested. But some of them are already allowed to have two children." At the end of 2014, China had a population of 1.37 billion people. A total of 800 million of them have jobs. But the labor market need of labor by the year 2050. With the two-child policy, an increase in births can solve this problem.
Boys and girls, what do you think of the two-child policy? Do you want to have a new-born brother or sister?
（1）Why has the government ended the one-child policy?
A.Because we have a small population.
B.Because millions of people have jobs.
C.Because most families want to have a second child.
D.Because a falling birth rate must be stopped.
（2）How do most young people in the cities react to the two-child policy?
A.They support the policy.
B.They don't know about it at all.
C.They are angry with it.
D.They aren't interested in it.
（3）When will our country be seriously short of labor if one-child policy continues?
A.In 2013.
B.In 2035.
C.In 2050.
D.In 2070
（4）What's the order of the following events?
a. The government allowed all the families to have two children.
b. China had a population of 1.37 billion people.
c. Some families in the countryside could have two children.
d. Families could have two children if one parent was an only child.

【題目】 All my friends at school smoked. My dad smoked; he didn’t want me to smoke but my friends kept saying I was stupid. They asked me to smoke when I was going to grow up. So I started smoking when I was sixteen, and after a month I couldn’t stop. But two years later, I could feel what smoking was doing to me. I couldn’t run far, and I coughed every morning. I got very ill and decided to stop. It wasn’t easy, but now I’ve done it, and I feel better. Now I have money for other things.

If you smoke, you are twice as likely to die from a heart attack. And the more you smoke, the earlier the heart attack is likely to be. For example, a 50-year-old who smokes more than 20 cigarettes a day, is four times more likely to have heart disease than a non-smoker of the same age.

What does smoking do to the heart? First of all, it makes the heart beat faster and increases the blood pressure. The cigarette smoke also reduces the amount of oxygen in the blood. Consequently, the heart has to work harder, with less oxygen. Finally, your arteries will narrow faster if you smoke.

So if you want to reduce your chances of getting heart disease, the answer is easy –– not to smoke. Don’t copy your friends and other people who smoke. If you smoke, find out how to stop. Stopping isn’t easy, but you’ll be healthier.

【1】Who is more likely to have heart disease?

A.smokerB.A non-smokerC.A 50-year-old personD.An old man

【2】What’s the Chinese meaning of the underlined word, reduce ?

A.增加B.減少C.得到D.抓住

【3】What does the writer think of smoking?

A.It is good for his health.B.Smoking is bad for his health.

C.Is it neither good nor bad for his healthD.It’s easy for him to stop smoking.

【4】What happens after the writer stopped smoking?

A.He becomes rich.B.He has more friends.

C.He gets heart disease.D.He becomes healthier and has money to do other things.

【5】Which statement is not true according to the passage?

A.I started smoking when I was sixteen.

B.The more you smoke, the earlier the heart attack is likely to be.

C.Smoking makes the heart beat faster and increases the blood pressure.

D.If you want to reduce your chances of getting heart disease, the answer is easy ––just smoke with your friends.
