Every day cars kill or hurt many people on roads. Sometimes the drivers drive too fast or do not drive carefully enough .Some of them       traffic rules and cause accidents.
According to some researchers, it is usually the pedestrians(行人) who cause the accidents. A lot of road users are very     . They walk or run across the roads      the cars. They walk in the roads but not on the walkways. Some do not take the time to        the green lights and simply cross the roads against the red lights.
Many people think accidents often happen in        roads in large cities, but this is not always true.       , Tokyo is one of the world’s largest cities and probably one of the busiest cities. However, there are       accidents to pedestrians. The reason is that the police there are very        and the pedestrians are very careful . Pedestrians never cross the roads against a red light and they     follow the traffic rules.
Do you know alcohol(酒精) is another main cause of traffic accidents? It delays(延緩) people’s response(反應). Those who have drunk alcohol are        in making decision. They need a few more seconds to react. Alcohol drinking is especially dangerous for motor car drivers. It is not only drivers who may have accidents after drinking, drunk pedestrians may put their lives in danger as well.

It’s cool, it’s hot, and everyone is doing it. People talk about it often，and friends tell other friends how good they look. Sound like a fashion? It’s actually trend (傾向): “blog”. What’s a blog? A blog is a personal online diary. The word “blogger” means a person who writes diaries online.
Many bloggers are teens who’ve been logging (進入) onto sites to talk about anything in their lives. Many of today’s teenagers are not afraid to openly discuss everything in their lives. Teens complain about parents and homework. They share diaries, post songs from the latest bands and show pictures of theirs. They write their own poems (詩), say something about their girlfriends or boyfriends and complain to each other or offer support. But mostly they just write down what they do every day.
However, many parents are afraid of these young bloggers. Parents see the kids talking about how they got drunk (喝醉的) last weekend and how they don’t like studying. They are using language that is surprising to their parents. Besides hearing from their friends, teen bloggers also get messages from strangers. Most of the time, it’s older men asking to meet teenage girls. “These strange men are dangerous for my kids. They sometimes teach my kids bad words,” said Cara Cabral, a mother of two.
Many teens and young adults know it’s not safe to use blogs on the Internet. They know they are putting information about themselves in a place they can be seen by anyone. But teens are unlikely to give up these new communication tools that have become a way of life for many of them.
Are you a blogger? What do you think of the blog?
小題1:The word “it” means ___________ in the first paragraph “People talk about it often”.
A．the InternetB．the blogC．the websiteD．talking on line

The phone rings. It’s a friend who wants to tell you his or her latest health problems. You hate to be impolite and cut your friend off, but what can you do? Stephanie Winston, author of Stephanie Winston’s Best Organizing Tips, offers his advice:
Don’t ask questions like “What’s new?” They give the information that you have time to talk. After “hello”, get right to the heart of the matter.
Time your calls wisely. If you make a call right before lunch or dinner, or at the end of the workday, people chat less.
Set a time limit. Start with, “Hi, I’ve only got a few minutes, but I wanted to talk to you about….” Or, “Gee, I’d love to talk more, but I only have a couple of minutes before I have to leave.”
Jump on a pause. Even the most talkative caller has to pause now and then. Quickly say, “It has been great talking with you.” Then end the conversation.
Forget niceties. Some people just don’t take a hint. Cut your caller off and say, “I’d like to talk to you longer, but I’m afraid I have no enough time. Good bye.” Then hang up.
Find “a partner in crime”. If nothing else works, ask someone in your home to help you. For example, one woman gives a sign to her husband, who shouts, “Jane, I think the roast chicken is burning.”
Avoid the phone completely. Use an answering machine to screen calls. If you have an important message for a chatterbox, leave the message when he or she isn’t in.
小題1:What’s the good time to make a call so that people can chat less?
A．After lunch or dinner.
B．In the middle of the workday.
C．Before lunch or dinner.
D．At the beginning of the workday.
小題2:“Finding a partner in crime” means ______.
A．finding someone to answer the call
B．getting right to the heart of the matter
C．telling the caller you are just cooking
D．a(chǎn)sking someone to help you end the call
小題3:What’s Winston’s advice about?
A．How to talk on the phone.
B．How to make calls wisely.
C．How to make a phone call.
D．How to keep phone calls short.

Taking away a city’s rubbish is a big job. Every day trucks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we can’t eat or use. If we kept these things, we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.
In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump. Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs and other places.
To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally , a house or a school may be built there, and then you’d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.
In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus, which looks like black earth. It is rich with kinds of things that feed plants and help make them grow.
小題1:The underline word “sewage” in the passage means_______
A．排污B．染色C．洗滌 D．洗塵

“Mind your own business．” we’re told．“Don’t talk about others behind their backs．”The problem with this advice is that，not only is it unrealistic，it’s also counterproductive(起反作用的)．
Common sense holds that gossip(流言蜚語)hurts people’s feelings and damages relationships．But recent research shows the opposite—that strong communities and relationships between people would be impossible without gossip．
Gossip is a way for people to let you know the limits of social behavior．“If you move into a community and your neighbor tells you how the former homeowner never dealt with his rubbish properly，his gossip is letting you in on something，”says Dr．Ralph Rosnow of Temple University．“Gossip says：these are the boundaries and you are crossing them．You’re not abiding by the rules and you’d better get back in line．” Seen this way，gossip is a way to communicate criticism(批評)without conflict(沖突)，giving you a chance to change your behavior without losing face．
On the other hand，what about ill-willed gossip，the kind that puts other people down? Gossip is hearing something we like about someone we don’t and，in nearly every country in the world，gossip magazines have huge numbers of readers．According to researchers，however，this kind of gossip also has a good side because it helps us put our own problems in perspective(正確地)．“If we read bad news about well-known people，or get the frightful details of our neighbors’ bad situation over a cup of coffee，our own problems begin to pale in comparison(對比)，”says Dr．Jack Levin of Northeastern University．
However，that doesn’t mean that gossip is necessarily a good thing，either．Researchers found that people who gossip a lot tend to feel like they’re under a lot of stress．This might be because while they’re busy talking about other people，they’re also busy thinking what other people are saying about them．
小題1:What is the purpose of the text?
A．To encourage us to spread gossip about others．
B．To prevent us from spreading gossip about others。
C．To make a comparison between good gossip and bad gossip．
D．To recognize certain positive functions of gossip．
小題2:According to the passage，people in general think that__________．
A．it’s a bad habit to gossip
B．nobody pays attention to gossip
C．not all the gossip you hear is worth believing
D．it’s necessary to have a nice gossip with a friend or neighbor
小題3:The underlined phrase “abiding by” in Paragraph 3 most probably means“________”．
A．makingB．breakingC．obeyingD．changing
小題4:It could be learned from the passage that__________.
A．people under much stress enjoy gossiping about others.
B．in a way gossip helps us deal with our own problems.
C．in fact most people tend to believe gossip.
D．the more there is gossip, the stronger relationships become between people.

How often do you use your car? Can you use your car less often? Do you know the following facts in the UK?
·About 50% of all car journeys are just for fun.
·Over 80% people go to work by car.
·25% car journeys are under two miles.
·70% car journeys are under five miles.
WALKING & CYCLING

Instead of using the car for short journeys, why not walk or ride a bicycle? Walking is the most popular form of exercise—it’s healthy and it can save money. If you work nearby, try walking or cycling instead of driving. Walking your children to school gives them valuable road experience.
BUSES

Bus companies are using new buses: some run on new fuelswhich produce less pollution; some have easier access（通路）for disabled and old people. There are special traffic lanes (行車道)to make bus journeys easier. So do something to help solve the pollution problem----let the bus take you to work and your children to school.
TRAINS

All car journeys, long or short, can be hard work. For some trips, it is wiser to take the train. Leave your car at home and walk, cycle or take a bus to and from the station. Train travel is fast, safe and comfortable. Train tickets are not always expensive.
