Most cars get their energy from petrol (汽油). But some cars use electricity. They get their power from large batteries (电池). There are also some cars that have both an electric motor and a petrol motor. They are called hybrid cars.

Most people think of electric cars as a new invention, but they have been around for a long time. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries electric cars were popular because the technology for petrol engines was not highly developed. But when the petrol engines became easier to make and more powerful，they became more popular. Interest in electric cars was high in the 1970s and 1980s because oil became very expensive. Recently, electric cars　have again become popular because people want cars that pollute less.

Electric cars are better than petrol cars in several ways. The biggest benefit is that they can reduce pollution. In areas with a high percentage of electric cars, there is less pollution. But it is important to understand that electric cars still cause pollution. The electricity to power electric cars has to come from a power station. Unless these power stations run on solar or wind energy, they are most likely burning fossil fuels (化石燃料). The second benefit of electric cars is a reduction in the dependence on foreign oil. Since electric cars can run on electricity from coal or nuclear power (核能) stations, there is less of a need to import oil.

There are some problems with electric cars as well. One disadvantage is that electric cars are more expensive than petrol cars. This is mostly because of the high cost of the batteries. They need to be charged in special places. Right now, there aren’t enough places where people can charge the batteries. Another problem is that electric cars cannot travel as far as petrol cars. Some people are afraid that the battery will run out of electricity before they reach their destination.

Despite these problems, many people, including car industry experts, believe that the percentage of electric cars will increase in the future.

Scott’s Winter Holiday

Winter break was coming soon, and all Scott wanted to do was to go snowboarding. Unluckily, Scott’s parents had booked a weeklong tropical cruise (热带邮轮). But Scott hated warm weather and asked if he could just stay at his best friend’s house to snowboard every day at the local mountain. So he kept talking with his parents about it, but they would not change their minds. Family time is important, and it is a tradition that they spend winter break together.

When Scott got on the ship with his parents, he walked around to check everything out. He couldn’t believe how great everything was. The dining room looked like a palace; the game room had all of his favorite games. Then Scott saw the surfing pool (冲浪池). It wasn’t a big pool, but it had big waves, and the people who were riding the waves made it look like a lot of fun.

Scott asked his parents if he could put his swim shorts on so that he could try surfing. They said, “ Of course.” And much to Scott’s surprise, they wanted to try surfing too.

When Scott and his parents had their swim suits on, they headed back to the surfing pool. Scott’s dad went first and only lasted about five seconds. Then it was his mom’s turn. She actually made it five seconds longer than his dad did. When it was Scott’s turn, he was excited and nervous. Then the waves started. It felt similar to snowboarding but different at the same time. On his first ride, Scott rode for almost 30 seconds. He enjoyed himself a lot.

By the time the weeklong cruise was over, Scott had new friends he planned to keep in touch with, a new hobby, and great memories. He told his parents that it was his best holiday ever.

One day at five o’clock in the afternoon, Mr. Brown gave him two dollars and let him buy some stamps(邮票) in the post office.

But nearly two hours passed, Tom did not come back. Mr. Brown was surprised. “He lost his way?” he thought to himself.

At seven in the evening, Tom came back with a box. He was very tired. When he saw his father, he said happily, “Daddy, I used all of your money to buy a box of chocolate. It was very sweet(甜的), but didn’t you think a box of chocolate was quite heavy for a little boy?”

A few weeks ago, a friend from an unknown Smile Groups sent me $120 to do good things with. Since then I have used the money in the U.K. and U.S. It has helped families and strangers, and generally raised a lot of smiles. They have warmed my heart, but none so much as the gift I was able to give just an hour ago.

I was in a charity shop, looking at the second-hand books. It happened that the bookshelves were next to the toy shelf. I noticed a group of poorly dressed women standing behind me. As they looked through the clothes shelf, a little girl about three years old came over to the toy shelf. Immediately her attention was caught by a toy pram(手推车). She spoke to her mother and her mother asked the shop assistant how much it cost. $3 was the answer.

The mum looked down at her child, perhaps thinking what she still had to buy and how much money she would have left. Then she shook her head. The child didn’t behave(表现)as badly as some might. Being told “no” was not new for her but she couldn’t keep the disappointment(失望)from her face.

I had a total of $5 in my pocket. I touched the mother on the shoulder, put the money in her hand and said, “Buy her a doll too. ”

I didn’t wait to see the end. After all, it was not about being thanked. I walked out of the shop and into the sunshine.

The money the friend gave me was to help me find happiness of the world. Was there any better way, I wondered, to get so much happiness for so little money than to buy a little girl a toy pram and a doll to sit in it?
