【題目】When it comes to car hiring, all car hire companies require that you should have a full driving license for at least one year, some of whom may ask for two years, especially for younger drivers.

Most car hire companies will not automatically hire out a car to someone under the age of 25 or to people over 70. But there are exceptions. Some listed companies are normally prepared to serve people of 21 and over. And some may go over the age limit and provide service for older people(aged 70 and over) providing you have no record of breaking the law and valid license, and a doctor's letter of good health.

Now read on for some information about national companies with many bases hiring out cars to people aged 21 and older drivers.

【解析】本文的目的是向人們通報英國的租車服務(wù)。說到汽車租賃,所有租車公司都要求你至少有一年的駕駛執(zhí)照,其中一些人可能會要求兩年,尤其是年輕的司機。70歲或以上的要提供一個沒有違反法律記錄的有效執(zhí)照和醫(yī)院的健康證明。

1A

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句And some may go over the age limit and provide service for older people( aged 70 and over) providing you have no record of breaking the law and valid license, and a doctor's letter of good health.可知72歲的British Michael如果要租一輛車必須有一個干凈的駕駛執(zhí)照。也就是司機要提供一個沒有違反法律記錄的有效執(zhí)照?芍鸢笧A。

2A

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Alamo Rent-A-CarNo top age limit可知,在Alamo Rent-A-Car它沒有設(shè)定年齡上限,這是它的特殊之處,故答案為A。

3C

目的意圖題。根據(jù)第三段Now read on for some information about national companies with many bases hiring out cars to people aged 21 and older drivers.可推知,本文的目的是向人們通報英國的租車服務(wù)。答案為C。

Good morning, everyone. I'd like to share my ideas about books in the future to you.

I think the books will be quite different from that they are now. First of all, they will look like the pads today, but their sizes will be changeable, too. Secondly, their colors will change depend on how the surroundings change, which will be good for eye what's more, they will be very much more practical. For example, if you met a question when reading, you can immediate get an answer by “talking” with the book. In word, I think books in the future will be more useful and interested.

That's all. Thank you!
