Talk about a real-life hero! Ten-year-old Larry Champagne from St. Louis, Missouri, hit the brake (刹车) on a runaway school bus. He saved himself and 20 other kids on board from disaster.

It all happened in one terrible accident. On the way to school, the bus driver, Ernestine Blackman, suddenly fell ill. Seeing the car was running away, the other kids started to scream, but Larry ran to the front and stopped the bus.

“At first I thought, ‘We’re going to die,’” says Larry, “but after I pressed the brake, I felt safe.”

Larry is something of a mechanic（机械师）. He helps his grandfather work on his old truck. “He gets his hands dirty,” says his grandfather.

Winter is dangerous for drivers because it’s so difficult to know what is going to happen and accidents take place easily. Bad weather can be waiting to meet you. Ice might be hiding under the snow, waiting to send you off the road. The car coming towards you might suddenly move across the road. Here are two rules for driving safely on icy roads:

Rule Number One is to drive smoothly. Irregular movements can make a car very difficult to manage. So each time you either turn the wheel, touch the brake or increase your speed, you must be as gentle and slow as possible. Just imagine you are driving with a full cup of hot coffee on the seat next to you. You should drive carefully enough in order that you wouldn’t get the coffee out of the cup.

Rule Number Two is to pay attention to what might happen. The more ice there is, the farther you have to look down the road. Test how long it takes to stop by gently braking. Remember that you may be driving more quickly than you think. Generally speaking, allow double your normal stopping distance when the road is wet, three times this distance on snow, and even more on ice. Try to stay in control of your car at all times, or you will get into trouble.

49. Driving in winter is dangerous because _________.

A. drivers usually have too much coffee B. people drive three times faster than usual

C. unexpected things may often happen D. people drive more gently and slowly

50.Rule Number One mainly tells us _________.

A. to drive fast on snowy roads B. to increase the driving speed

C. to manage your car irregularly D. to drive smoothly on icy roads

51.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A. Winter Driving B. Careless Driving C. Traffic Accidents D. Bad Weather

52.Where do you think you might read such a passage?

A. In dictionaries. B. In cookbooks. C. In advertisements. D. In magazines.

China is going green．In order to reduce air pollution and oil shortages, carmakers have announced their plans to develop hybrid vehicles (混合燃料汽车) for the Chinese market．Toyota’s hybrid car Prius will be ready to drive in China this week．Let’s have a look at the new car．

Any vehicle is a hybrid run on a rechargeable battery and gas．Hybrid cars have special engines, which are smaller than traditional gas engines．The gasoline engine provides 99 percent of the power when the car is going at a steady speed. A specially designed battery motor provides extra power for running up hills or when it needs to speed up．

Step into a Prius, and turn on the engine．The first thing you notice is that it is quieter than a traditional car．At this point, the car’s gas engine is at rest．The electric motor will provide power until the car reaches about 24km/h．If you stay at a low speed, you are effectively driving an electric car, with no gas being used, and no waste gas given off．

The computer decides when to use the gas engine, when to go electric, and when to use a combination of the two．If you go over 24km/h, when you step on the gas pedal (油门), you are telling the computer how fast you want to go．

The electric motor recharges automatically using a set of batteries．And when driving at a high speed, the gas engine not only powers the car but also recharges the batteries．When you use the brake, the electric motor in the wheels will work like a generator (发电机) to produce electricity to recharge the batteries．As a result, the car’s batteries will last for around 200,000 miles．

66．The underlined sentence probably means ________.

A．there will be more and more green land in China

B．China’s new cars are combinations of different green models

C．China is still young and lacking in experience

D．the environment is getting better in China

67. What is the most important feature of hybrid cars?

A. They are powered by both a rechargeable battery and gas.

B. They have smaller engines than traditional gas ones.

C. They only use 99 percent of their power to run up hill.

D. They are much quieter than traditional cars.

68. We can know from the story that ________.

A. the gas engine recharges the batteries as well as powering the car

B. using the brake suggests that the gas engine should work

C. the car’s batteries will last for around 200,000 miles without being recharged

D. the batteries can be recharged at any time you want

69. The author writes the passage mainly to________.

A. announce plans to develop hybrid vehicles for the Chinese market

B. let people know how to save their gas when driving a car

C. teach people how to drive a hybrid car

D. introduce a new kind of “green” car

70．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?

A．The hybrid car is environmentally friendly．

B．The hybrid car is unable to get itself recharged．

C．The hybrid car has been made in mass．

D．The hybrid car can decide what power to use
