5.Why buy a new car when you can improve the one you have with the latest technology?Here are two new methods that will not only make life behind wheel more comfortable but may also end up saving you money.
WI-FI on Wheels
 It's not enough that children complain
about having nothing to watch on television.
These days,they even complain about having
nothing to watch in the car.Fortunately,for
every unsatisfied youth,there is a new
technological solution:Wi-Fi Internet access 
for the back seat of your vehicle. 
   In the United States,Chrysler is the first
to offer such a system,which turns any
Chrysler or Dodge into a Wi-Fi hotspot,Called
UConnect,the  499 dealer-installed option is a
high-speed cell-like Internet connection with a
wireless router that sits in your car's trunk(行
李箱).Monthly service costs  29 for Internet
access,which is available to any device that
has Wi-Fi and is within 100 feet of your car.
With UConnect,passengers can check
emails messages on a laptop,send instant
messages to friends or watch YouTube videos
online.It allows passengers to search for
movie listings on a smart phone or connect a
Sony PSP video game player to the Web.It
also offers the ability to freely upload photos
from a Wi-Fi-equipped digital camera to an
online sharing service like Flickr.
For critics who claim that putting Wi-Fi
Internet access in a car feeds the danger of
driver disfr2K;(ion(分散注意力),parents may
well disagree:What's more distracting,the
temptation to check email or a lot of children
talking to you from the back seat?
             Watch Your Back    
Blind spots behind cars and SUV's make
backing up dangerous as well as potentially
deadly for children.Nationally,the group Kids
and Cars estimates that two children a week
are killed by cars backing up.The  
Transportation Department  is  establishing
visibility standards for future vehicles,but
there's no need to wait.   
    A back-view back system can be an 
expensive option in a new car.In the 2008  
Subaru Tribeca,for example,the back-view
camera option is available only in connection
with the inner navigation system,at a price of 
 2,400.And professionally equipped systems
can cost  400 0r more.However,there are 
now inexpensive back-view packages you can
help yourself,such as the  130 Audiovox
ACA250 Wireless Vehicle Rear Observation
System.It includes a camera that increases on
a back license-plate holder and grasps onto a
vehicle's backup light.It can send a back-view
image to a small L.C.D.Monitor that can be
carried  into  electronic  equipment  and
increased on the dashboard(仪表板).
Audiovox claims the camera housing is
not afraid of dust.In some areas where radio
waves are p4ntiful,the image can be affected
by occasional interference,but the picture,
with its wide 110-degree camera point,is good
enough to see things or children behind you.
 
46.What is the best title of the passage?A
A.DIY methods for your car.
B.The importance of putting internet access in your car.
C.The way of putting a back-view system.
D.How to save money in your life?
47.What's the parents'attitude to the safety concern of car Internet access?C
A.They agree with the critics'opinion.
B.They consider it a great danger for driving.
C.They think.that talking with children is more dangerous.
D.They believe it unnecessary to have car Internet access.
48.What's the potential danger for children?B
A.Electronic equipment.               
B.Backing-up car.
C.Earphones behind the wheel.         
D.Highway engine failure.
49.How cart the back-view package see the back of the car?A
A.With a camera onto the side of backup light.
B.With an inner navigation system.
C.With a dashboard.
D.With a cell phone.

2.Do I exist?
Obviously!
Until Descartes came along in the seventeenth century,everyone assumed that we exited.Obviously.The fact seemed so mind-blowingly obvious that it wasn't really discussed.We could see ourselves in the mirror,we could feel pain and pleasure,we could think thoughts for ourselves and,more importantly,perhaps,all the world's main religions assumed that we do exist.So we exist.

No you don't it!
You don't exist.That's because it's impossible to show once and for all that you do.There's no proof.You might think you exist-that you are sitting at a table reading this book,for instance-but how could you show with 100percent certainty that this is true?There's no experiment that could prove it.Although Descartes said just you could prove your own existence by the fact that you are able to think,this isn't actually,according to the British philosopher A.J.Ayer.Just because we know that we are thinking,this doesn't mean that there is a"you"doing the thinking.It just shows that the thoughts are happening,not that anyone is having them.Thoughts exists,"You"don't.

______!
What a waste of time this question is.Although you can argue until the end of time whether you exist or not,it doesn't get you anywhere.Unless you forget about this unanswerable question,you'll be stuck thinking about it forever,and that isn't of any use to anyone.Move on.Think about something more important!This very roughly,is the view of almost all philosophers,who prefer to answer other,apparently more useful,questions.

Yes,but…
You exist,but not in the way you might think.According to the great French philosopher Ren Descartes,you can't show that anything exists-apart from your own self.The existence of the entire world can be doubted in one way or another,but the facts you're having thoughts shows that there might be something (that's you) having them.This let Descartes to write the famous philosophical phrase,"I think before I am".

60.Which of the following can be the missing heading?D
A.Forget about it            
B.What a ridiculous point
C.Think about it             
D.What a pointless question
61.This passage is anything but a(n)A.
A.comment   
B.discussion    
C.argument   
D.debate
62.The famous answer to the question"Do I exist?"isB.
A.No,you don't exist.
B.I think,therefore,I am.
C.Yes,you do exist.
D.It won't get you anywhere.
