Then perhaps you have never heard of karting, also sometimes called go karting. A kart is rather like a baby car with no roof. It has a small engine, 4 small wheels and room for only the driver. Its top speed is about 80 kilometers per hour. Karting clubs are private and young people under the age of 17 can be members. On the private land of the club, they can go karting. Some secondary schools think karting is very good for their pupils. The pupils can make everything except the engine and the tyres at school. Tyres for kart are not very expensive. An old motorcycle engine does not cost much and is good enough as a kart engine. The pupils enjoy studies which are part of real life. The school likes karting for another reason. The sport is safe. Because the karts are low to the ground, serious accidents almost never happen. Karting is something new and exciting for these lucky pupils. It also teaches them a lot of engineering. Perhaps they will be better drivers in later life. They may not want to behave (行为举止) like racing-drivers on our dangerous roads. 1. The writer thinks that motor-racing is usually_____________.

Australia, the last continent, was discovered by ships belonging to some European nations in the seventeenth century, these nations were less interested in changing it into a colony (殖民地) than in exploring (勘 探)it, As in the early history of the United States, it was the English who set up the settlements (新拓展地) in Australia. This history and the geography of these two British colonies have some other things in common as well.
Australia and the United States are about the same in size, and their western lands are both not rich in soil. It was the eastern coast of Australia and America that the English first settled, and both colonies soon began to develop towards the west, and both colonies soon began to develop towards the west. However, this westward movement took place more because the English were searching for better land than because the population was increasing. Settlements of the western part of both countries developed quickly after gold was discovered in America in 1849 and in Australia two years later.
Although the development of these two countries has a lot in common, these are some striking differences as well. The United States gained its independence from England by revolution while Australia won its independence without having to go to war. Australia, unlike the United States, was firstly turned into a colony by English prisoners and its economic development was in wheat growing and sheep raising. By 1922, for example, Australia had fifteen times more sheep than it had people, or almost half as many sheep as the people there in the United States. Yet, in spite of these and other main differences, Australia and the United States have more in common with each other than either one has with most of the rest of the world.
