4．From the health point of view we are living in an amazing age．We are free from many of the most dangerous diseases．A large number of once deadly illnesses can now be cured by modern medicine．It is almost certain that one day medicines will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases．The expectation of life has increased greatly．But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before，every day we witness the unbelievable killing of men，women and children on the roads．Man Vs the motor-car!It is a never-ending battle which man is losing．
Thousands of people all over the world are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen．It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel （方向盘），his car becomes the extension of his personality．There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man's very worst qualities．People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel．They say，they are ill-mannered and aggressive，willful as two-year-olds and completely selfish．Their hidden angers and disappointments seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving．
The surprising thing is that society smiles so gently on the motorist and seems to forgive his behavior．Everything is done for his convenience．Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable because of heavy traffic； towns are made ugly by huge car parks； the countryside is ruined by road networks； and the deaths become nothing more than a number every year，to be easily forgotten．
It is high time a world rule was created to reduce this senseless waste of human life．With regard to driving，the laws of some countries are unbelievable lenient （宽容的） and even the strictest are not strict enough．A rule which was universally accepted could only have an obviously beneficial effect on the accident
rate．
Here are a few examples of some of the things that might be done．The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is； all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so； the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21； all vehicles should be put through strict tests for safety each year．Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can damage a person's driving ability．Present drinking and driving laws（where they exist） should be made much stricter．Speed limits should be required on all roads．Governments should lay down safety specifications for car factories，as has been done in the USA．All advertising stress power and performance should be banned．These measures may not sound good enough．But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the number of deaths．After all，the world is for human beings，not motor-cars．

11．I went up to my mother's bedroom after her death and found a box full of papers．Inside was a letter．"Dearest Andrew，"it began，"there was never a right time to tell you．"
Along with the letter was my adoption paperwork-"Parents：unknown"-and two newspapers．The first described a newborn baby，wrapped in a pink blanket，discovered on a doorstep by a paperboy．The second was from a year later，reporting that the baby was still in a children's home，yet to be adopted．
It was a shock．My childhood was happy；my adoptive father died when I was eight，but my mother made sure I couldn't have had a more loving home．I didn't do anything about trying to find out my birth parents for 15 years．However，there were so many questions．Why did my mother abandon me？Did she get into trouble？I didn't feel angry with her for leaving me，but I wanted to know more about the circumstances surrounding my birth．
I started to research my history and went on local television news．Amazingly，a man called Ronnie got in touch with the TV station，saying I reminded him of his father，Angus．We met up and I was surprised to see a man 20years my senior．We arranged a DNA test．The results were positive-Ronnie was my half-brother．
Ronnie told me that my father would have been 60 when I was born．He died before I started my search．My father was having an affair with a young woman during the year of my birth，but she is now married with her own family and I should respect her privacy．I would like my questions answered，but not at the expense of her happiness．"Abandoned"is such a sensitive word，but I don't feel any sadness or rejection，because I don't know the circumstances of my birth．Instead，I feel unique．

8．Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now，and they did not need to be as careful as they must today．They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed．They took little notice of the health and safety of the people who worked for them．Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them and the conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers．
Of course，sometimes there were real disasters which attracted the attention of governments and showed the need for changes．Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore．At such times，there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems．New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquires； however，the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill．
Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers．In the US，for example，there is a department which examines new planes and gives warnings about possible problems．It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow．Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell．A third department looks at the places where people work，and then reports any companies that are breaking the laws which protect the health and safety of workers．Of course，new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness，but they are having some good results．Our work places are safer and cleaner than before．The planes and cars which we use for travel are better．Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products．

56．What had bad effects on the health of the workers？（No more than 6 words）The conditions in the work place/the working conditions．
57．In what ways do the departments protect customers and workers？（No more than 20 words）By testing new products，controlling foods and drugs and examining work places．
58．Please explain the underlined phrase"took little notice of"in the first paragraph in English．（No more than 5 words）
paid little attention to/ignored
59．What is the passage mainly about？（No more than 15 words）The changes of safety and health of workers and customers．
60．Do you think our working or living place is safer and cleaner than before？Please give one or two examples．（No more than 20 words）Yes，the river around us is cleaner than before； the traffic is safer．．
