It does not come as a surprise that Dubai has a growing problem with “tragic”. The local rulers have explored all the conventional ways to get traffic moving again,including higher prices for parking,fuel and insurance. But at a recent conference in Hamburg, Hussain Lootah said that the city may adopt a more strict approach: setting an income level for vehicle ownership.

Mr Lootah’s approach is unlikely to be copied widely, but mayors of other big cities around the world are starting to think about taking severe actions of their own, including complete car bans in inner cities.But the efforts may not be enough to reduce traffic and pollution. The problems will only get worse: the number of vehicles sold globally each year will grow from around 80 million today to more than 100 million by the end of the decade, according to IHS Automotive.

There are already a handful of car-free communities around the world.But these are typically small and often tourist destinations that seek to create a throwback(后退;返祖遗传) in time, such as Sark Island, in the English Channel. The largest car-free urban area is probably Venice, where it is impossible to build roads and bridges to link the more than 100 small islands the city sits on.

Yet pedestrian malls(步行街) and other car-free zones keep popping up in cities around the world. Some cities are considering ways to limit central city access to “green” machines, such as battery-electric vehicles. Hamburg is perhaps the furthest along.

Such extreme plans may fly in a city such as Hamburg. But in many other cities the political resistance even to less far-reaching measures is hard to overcome. Michael Bloomberg, New York’s former mayor, tried twice to introduce a jam charge for much of Manhattan, but his plans were rejected by state lawmakers.

1. From Paragraph 1, we know that ________.

A. Dubai government tries to improve its local incomes

B. Dubai government tries to solve traffic problems

C. Dubai government tries to reduce prices for parking

D. Dubai government tries to offer insurance to locals

2. It is still hard to reduce traffic problems, because ________.

A. Mr Lootah’s approach will be copied widely.

B. mayors take gentle measures toward them.

C. more vehicles will be sold globally each year.

D. complete car bans in inner cities are not made.

3.What causes Venice to be the largest car-free urban area?

A. Its natural geographical characteristics.

B. Its too many tourist destinations.

C. Its reduced number of cars.

D. Its government law on car free.

4.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?

A. People can only walk in central city.

B. All vehicles can be used in central city.

C. Hamburg may not adopt “green” machines.

D. “Green” machines can be accessible in central city.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

For Sparky, school was all but impossible. He failed every subject in the eighth grade. He failed physics in high school, getting a grade of zero.

Sparky was not good at Latin and English, either. He didn’t do much better in sports. Although he did manage to make the school’s golf team, he lost the only important match of the season. Throughout his youth, Sparky was awkward socially. He was surprised if a classmate ever said hello to him outside of school hours.

Sparky was a loser. However, one thing was important to Sparky — drawing. He was proud of his artwork. Of course, no one else appreciated it. In his senior year of high school, he sent some cartoons to the editors of the yearbook. The cartoons were rejected (拒绝). Despite this particular rejection, Sparky was so confident of his ability that he decided to become a professional artist.

After completing high school, he wrote a letter to Walt Disney Studios. He was told to send some pieces of his artwork, and the subject for a cartoon was suggested. Sparky drew the cartoon. He spent a great deal of time on it and on all the other drawings. Finally, the reply came from Disney Studios. He had been rejected once again. Another loss for the loser.

So Sparky decided to draw his own autobiography (自传) in cartoons. He described his childhood — a little boy loser. The cartoon character soon became famous worldwide. For Sparky, the boy who had such lack of success in school and whose work was rejected again and again was Charles Schulz. He created the “Peanuts” comic strip (连环画) and the little cartoon character whose kite never flew and who never succeeded in kicking a football — Charlie Brown.

1.School was impossible for Sparky because _____.

A. his family was very poor

B. he was not a hard-working student

C. he couldn’t do well in his lessons

D. he was naughty and always caused trouble

2.The underlined word “awkward” in the second paragraph means _________.

A. troublesome B. embarrassed

C. stubborn D. normal

3.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?

A. The secret of success

B. Sparky — a failure at school

C. Nobody is always a failure

D. Sparky ― a lucky boy

Allow me to introduce you to Terry, a window salesman from England. If I could take you back about 20 years, you’d know Terry as a complete green hand, who was wet behind the ears in just about everything he attempted. A person couldn’t sell false teeth to his own Granny, let alone he could compete with the other salespeople in the industry. You know, the kind who could sell snow to Eskimos.

Terry’s boss decided to send him out on a practical field trip on his first day. So off he went, but he was extremely nervous. With his hands and his knees shaking, he approached the front door and knocked at it. And an old woman appeared. After dozens of cups of tea and pieces of biscuits, the woman signed a contract and purchased over $7,000 worth of windows.

The woman had already talked with 6 excellent salesmen that week, all of whom offered her cheaper ones! That’s right—Terry’s price was the most expensive and he was also the most inexperienced salesman there ever was.

So, what happened then? Here comes the secret. The woman said she liked the young lad more than the others. That’s all there was to it. She didn’t care about the extra expense. Even the other salesmen couldn’t persuade her to pay less than this young lad was asking for.

The truth is that the young lad left on the woman the first impression that shone brighter than any of the salesman’s talk. First impressions count, not the sales techniques, not the low prices. The actual “personality” the kid honestly gave was all that was required. If you market your own products and services, consider what impression you are giving to others. If you appeal to them, then you’ve already done half of the work. If this means redesigning your presentation, then so be it. If this means going out of your way to be polite, helpful and giving the best possible shopping experience to your customers, the so be it.

1.When Terry was offered the job of salesman, he .

A. was good at sales techniques

B. knew little about sales skills

C. was believed in by his boss

D. was too young to do it

2.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 suggests that .

A. Terry couldn’t trade with Eskimos

B. Terry loved his Granny more

C. Terry was afraid to compete

D. Terry was too honest to do the job

3.What made the young lad succeed in selling the window to the old woman?

A. First impression of good personality.

B. Being honest and childish.

C. High quality and expensive window.

D. Strange ways of sales.

4.The passage is most likely written to .

A. general readers B. new salesmen

C. window makers D. new graduates
