If you go out, you can find cars here and there.Bad smoke from a car can get into the air.This bad smoke is called pollution.
Pollution turns the air a gray color.It is very dirty.It also makes the air around us get worse and worse.It is not good for our health.
To keep pollution down, the States test cars every two years.This test checks to make sure the cars do not pollute the air.If a car doesn’t pass the test, the owner can’t drive it the next year.
Some car owners drive their cars even though they can’t pass the test.It is also very bad for the air.
People want to find a way to get these cars off the road.So a state program was started.Now it seems to be helping.In the state program, the States buy cars that can’t pass the test or will help pay for repairs.This program has been helping people buy better cars or fix their old ones.And the air is becoming better and better.
The state program that takes pollution cars off the road has just finished its first year, and people say it has been successful.For the past year, the state program has been buying cars that can’t pass the test, and the cars bought by the States through the program are put out of use.

You will have a lot of reading to do in this grade this year.You can do more of it in less time if you learn to read rapidly.
Perhaps you have been told about some habits (习惯) which keep a person from reading fast and have been strongly asked to break those habits which you might have.
Do you still have any of these bad habits?Check yourself by answering“yes”or“no”to these questions.
(1) Do you move your lips (嘴唇) when reading silently?
(2) Do you point to words with your finger as you read?
(3)Do you move your head from side to side as you read?
(4)Do you read one word at a time?
If you answer“yes”to any of these questions,start at once to break the habit.If you move your tips,hold your fingers over them,or hold a piece of paper be-tween your lips while you are reading.Then if your lips move,your will know it and can stop them.
If you point to words,hold the two sides of your book,one side with your left hand,the other side with your right hand.Then you won't have a free finger to use in pointing while reading.If you move your head,place your chin (下巴) in one hand and hold your head still (静止不动的).
If you read no more than one or two or three words at a time,you need to work very hard in learning to take in (吸收) more words at each glance (一瞥) as your eyes travel across the lines of words.
Even if you do rather fast now,you can learn to read even faster.As you probably have been told,the secret of fast reading is to take in whole groups of words as each glance.Read in through groups and force (迫使) your eyes along the lines of words as fast as you can to make them go.Anyone who practices doing these things will he able to read faster.
