There is not enough oil in the world now. As time goes by, it becomes less and less, so what are we going to do when it runs out? Perhaps we will go back to use horses, carriages and bicycles.
In the Second World War, some people didn’t use gas(氣體) made from petroleum (石油) in their cars. They made gas from wood and plants instead. The car didn’t go fast, but they ran, so this was better than nothing. However, in the future, we can’t cut down all our trees to make gas; we need our trees for other things, too.
Besides different types of gas, we can also use electricity to run our cars, but first we must make the electricity! Some countries have coal(煤炭) and they make electricity with that, but we might not always have coal, either. Other countries have big, strong rivers, and they can use the power of water to turn turbines (渦輪機(jī)) and make electricity more easily and cheaply.
We are also able to get power from the ocean tides(潮). We put turbines into the mouth of the river. Then the tide comes in, the water turns the turbines and then it goes out, it turns them again.
Which of these ways will be used to run our cars in the future?
【小題1】When might people have to go back to use horses and carriages?

A.When they are poor.
B.When they run out of oil.
C.When they need more exercise.
D.When there aren’t any big trees in the world.
【小題2】What did some people use to make gas in the Second World War?
A.Water B.Coal C.Wood and plants D.Tides
【小題3】How many ways are suggested to make electricity in the passage?
A.2 B.5 C.4 D.3
【小題4】According to the passage, which of the following statements is True?
A.There is more petroleum than we can use now.
B.Trees are needed for some other things besides making gas.
C.We got electricity from ocean tides in the old days.
D.Gas wasn’t used to run cars in the Second World War.
【小題5】The passage is mainly about _________.
A.how to run our cars
B.what to do when oil runs out
C.different types of gas
D.the ways to make electricity

Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is the color of most growing plants, too.
Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet finished or plants that are not ripe.
For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a situation. In the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns had not yet developed. A century or so later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in war (戰(zhàn)爭). By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today--a person who is new in a job.
About one hundred years ago, greenhorn was a popular expression in the American west. Old-timers used it to describe a man who had just arrived from one of the big cities in the east. The greenhorn didn’t have the skills that he would need to live in the hard, rough country.
Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from the early nineteen hundreds.
A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died.
The Green Revolution (革命) is the name which was given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural (農(nóng)業(yè)的) scientists who had green thumbs.
【小題1】According to the passage, a greenhorn means________ now.

A.a(chǎn) young cow or ox whose horns have not yet developed
B.a(chǎn) soldier who has not had any experience in war
C.a(chǎn) person who is new in a job
D.a(chǎn) man who doesn’t have the skills to live in the country
【小題2】The meaning of the underlined word “ripe” in the second paragraph is ________.
A.未完成的B.成熟的C.青澀的D.老練的
【小題3】Which of the following about the Green Revolution is NOT right?
A.If there weren’t the Green Revolution, we would have no rice to eat.
B.The expression “the Green Revolution” appeared several years ago.
C.Because of the Green Revolution, we have more kinds of rice and other grains.
D.Agricultural scientists with green thumbs started the Green Revolution.
【小題4】We can know from the passage that _______.
A.a(chǎn)ll growing plants is green
B.green is the most important color in nature
C.a(chǎn) person with a green thumb can make plants grow well
D.the expression “a green thumb” has a history of two hundred years
【小題5】The main idea of the passage is ________.
A.a(chǎn) greenhornB.a(chǎn) green thumb
C.the Green RevolutionD.the word “green” and its story

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

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

A.Texting is a good way of communication.
