  Terrafugia Company has said that its flying car, named Transition, has successfully finished a 37- second test flight

  On March 5, 2009, at Plattsburgh International Airport in New York.It was piloted by Phil Meteer, the company's chief pilot.

  Transition is a two-seat airplane that can take off and land at airports as well as drive on roads.

  The company said that the flying car can travel at speeds up to 115 mph for 450 miles in the air, drive at highway speeds on the ground, and fold up(折叠)to fit in a garage(车库)81 inches wide, and 80 inches high.

  This could be used in hospitals to transport patients so as to avoid road traffic.It may start running on wheels, and when it gets to traffic lights it can fly overhead the lights and keeps its way forward.So it’s good news to avoid traffic problem and the traffic accidents.

  But some people say this is a going airplane rather than a flying car, at least on the appearance.Anyway, we are happy for scientific-technical progress, what a fantastical world in the near future!

  April 22 is Earth Day.Everyone on earth should care about and protect the earth!

  The earth has warmed by about 1°F(华氏度)over the past 100 years,but why and how? Well,scientists are not quite sure.Maybe the earth gets warmer and warmer on its own.But many scientists say that people are doing many things which make the earth warmer.

  First,greenhouse effect(温室效应)is a very important reason for the change of the earth.People give out too much energy into the air every year.It makes the earth warmer.Climate(气候)change is another important reason.Sometimes it becomes too hot and sometimes too cold.Sometimes there is too much rain and sometimes too little.The change of the climate makes the earth warmer.In turn,the warmth of the earth changes the climate,too.

  When the earth becomes warmer,there may be more rain and a rise in sea lev-el. It will affect the growth of plants,animals and people.On a Pacific island.100 people have to move to higher ground because the sea is rising.These people can no longer live on the coast.Before that,two islands without people went underwa-ter in 1999.Scientists say that the seas can rise by nearly one metre by 2100.

  People can affect the earth's air,land and water.As for us,we can do many things to protect the earth.For example,We Can use fridges less.We can tell more people about protecting the earth.
