2．The Adventure of Hucklebeery Finn，by Mark Twain，is perhaps the most famous American novel written．（　　）

19．I was desperately nervous about becoming car-free．But eight months ago our car was hit by a passing vehicle and it was destroyed．No problem，I thought：we'll buy another．But the insurance payout didn't even begin to cover the costs of buying a new car-I worked out that，with the loan （贷款） we'd need plus petrol，insurance，parking permits and tax，we would make a payment as much as£600a month．
And that's when I had my fancy idea．Why not just give up having a car at all？I live in London．We have a railway station behind our house，a tube station 10minutes'walk away，and a bus stop at the end of the street．A new car club had just opened in our area，and one of its shiny little red Peugeots was parked nearby．If any family in Britain could live without a car，I reasoned，then surely we were that family．
But my new car-free idea，sadly，wasn't shared by my family．My teenage daughters were horrified．What would their friends think about our family being"too poor to afford a car"？（I wasn't that bothered what they thought，and I suggested the girls should take the same approach．）
My friends，too，were astonished at our plan．What would happen if someone got seriously ill overnight and needed to go to hospital？（an ambulance） How would the children get to and from their many events？（buses and trains） People smiled as though this was another of my mad ideas，before saying they were sure I'd soon realize that a car was a necessity．
Eight months on，I wonder whether we'll ever own a car again．The idea that you"have to"own a car，especially if you live in a city，is all in the mind．I live-and many other citizens do too-in a place that has never been better served by public transport，and yet car ownership has never been higher．We worry about rising car costs，but we'd be better off asking something much more basic：do I really need a car？Certainly the answer is no，and I'm a lot richer because I dared to ask the question．

6．As the 2016Presidential election is approaching，US high school students have become more interested in the election．They hope to have a say in deciding the next US president．

11．If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time，they become weak； when you start using again，they slowly become strong again．Everybody knows this，and nobody would think of questioning the fact．（36）B When someone says that he has a good memory，he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly，either consciously or unconsciously．When someone else says that his memory is poor，he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong．（37）G One of them exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis，while the other sits in a chair or a motor car all day．
