I have a funny story to tell you: On receiving my learner driver license a couple of months ago, I started driving lessons straight away. However, it wasn’t until two days ago 1. Dad finally allowed me to drive on the motorway. Our destination was Orewa, a seaside 50 km away.

That morning I made sure I had enough to drink and went to the toilet about three times before we left. I thought I was totally prepared 2. the journey, but I had never thought of my family’s 3. (complain).

“Relax! Don’t hold the steering wheel(方向盘) so 4. (tight),” called a nervous voice from the backseat.

“Speed up. 70 km/h isn’t fast enough. You are holding up 5. traffic,” another voice ordered from the seat next to mine.

How 6. (annoy)! To content them I stepped hard on the accelerator(油门), and within a second, an angry voice began to yell again.

“Stop! Slow down, slow down! Are you crazy? Did I tell you to go above 100 km/h?”

Finally I drove into the city, 7. the speed limit was only 50 km/h.

My family seemed 8. (relax) and stopped telling me what to do. They all looked out of the windows and enjoyed the scenery.

On our way home, the journey was much 9. (easy) than before as everyone else fell fast 10. (sleep). So, I just took my time and enjoyed the drive.

People typically wash their hands seven times a day in the United States, but they do it at a far higher temperature than is necessary to kill germs (病菌) , a new study says. The energy waste is equivalent to the fuel use of a small country.

Amanda R. Carrico, a research assistant professor at the Vanderbilt Institute for Energy and Environment in Tennessee, told National Geographic that hand washing is often “a case where people act in ways that they think are in their best interest, but they in fact have inaccurate beliefs or outdated perceptions.”

Carrico said, “It’s certainly true that heat kills bacteria, but if you were going to use hot water to kill them it would have to be way too hot for you to tolerate.”

Carrico said that after a review of the scientific literature, her team found “no evidence that using hot water that a person could stand would have any benefit in killing bacteria.” Even water as cold as 40°F (4.4°C) appeared to reduce bacteria as well as hotter water, if hands were scrubbed, rinsed(冲洗)and dried properly.

Using hot water to wash hands is therefore unnecessary, as well as wasteful, Carrico said, particularly when it comes to the environment. According to her research, people use warm or hot water 64 percent of the time when they wash their hands. Using that number, Carrico’s team calculated a significant impact on the planet.

“Although the choice of water temperature during a single hand wash may appear unimportant, when multiplied by the nearly 800 billion hand washes performed by Americans each year, this practice results in more than 6 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent emissions annually,” she said.

The researchers published their results in the July 2013 issue of International Journal of Consumer Studies. They recommended washing with water that is at a “comfortable” temperature, which they noted may be warmer in cold months and cooler in hot ones.

1.What’s the meaning of what Carrico told National Geographic in the second paragraph?

A. People are more concerned about their health and begin to wash their hands.

B. It’s important for people to wash their hands to keep healthy.

C. Generally, people’s hand washing behaviors and perceptions are not correct.

D. People like washing their hands very much.

2.The figures in the sixth paragraph are used to show that __________.

A. using hot water to wash hands has a bad influence on our planet.

B. air pollution has become more and more serious.

C. using hot water to wash hands is a waste of energy.

D. people should pay more attention to the environment around us.

3.This passage is organized in the pattern of __________.

A. fact and opinion B. cause and effect

C. definition and classification D. time and events

4.What can we learn from the passage?

A. It’s necessary and useful for people to wash their hands frequently every day.

B. We can wash our hands with water that is at a “comfortable” temperature.

C. Using cold water to wash hands is necessary and much healthier.

D. Hot water can’t kill germs.
