Any car accident is frightening, but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water, with you trapped inside, is absolutely terrifying.__ 1.__ However, most deaths result from panic, without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water.By adopting a brace(支撑) position, acting decisively and getting out fast,you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.

Brace yourself for impact(撞击力).As soon as you're aware that you're going off the road and into a body of water,adopt a brace position.The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle,so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the “ten and two” position.

Undo your seatbelt.__ 2._ Unbuckle the children,starting with the oldest first.Forget the cellphone call.Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call.

__3._ Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window.A car's electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water,so try the method of opening it electronically first.Many people don't think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking.

Break the window.If you aren't able to open the window,or it only opens halfway,you'll need to break it with an object or your foot.It may feel counter?intuitive(有悖常理的) to let water into the car.__ 4._

Escape when the car has equalized.If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced,you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival.__ 5.__ While there is still air in the car,take slow,deep breaths and focus on what you're doing.

A.Open the window as soon as you hit the water.

B.Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.

C.It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually.

D.Such accidents are particularly dangerous to the risk of drowning.

E. In conclusion,if you know what to do in the water,you will be safe.

F.This is the first thing to attend to,yet it often gets forgotten in the panic.

G.But the sooner the window is open,the sooner you can escape directly through it.

Nuclear energy has always been controversial. But since the tsunami and nuclear disaster in Fukushima(Japan) in 2011, the issue is back in the headlines. And the world is divided—some countries are planning more nuclear plants, while others have promised to shut theirs down.

After Fukushima, Germany decided to switch off all its nuclear plants by 2022. __1.__ In fact, almost 80% of France's electricity comes from nuclear power, the highest percentage in the world. And in the US, the Obama administration said it “continues to support the expansion of nuclear power, despite the crisis in Japan.”

Nuclear supporters claim nuclear power can help the environment. _2._ So, pro?nuclear countries argue that nuclear power allows them to generate energy without contributing to climate change. Britain's chief scientific adviser(John Beddington) supports this view.

Nuclear power is also relatively cheap. Renewable energy sources such as solar, hydro and wind power may be clean, but they're expensive; and right now, they require a lot of investment. __3._ So, while many people may prefer their energy to come from a renewable source, not so many are prepared to pay higher energy bills.

__4._ For a start, nuclear waste is very difficult to dispose of, and remains toxic to humans for thousands of years. And even before Fukushima, there were several high?profile nuclear disasters. The most famous is probably the 1986 Chernobyl disaster, in the Ukraine. The radiation from the meltdown spread all over Europe, affecting thousands of people.

The nuclear energy issue is very complex. _5._ As a Japanese commentator recently said, “It's been a bad year for the ‘nuclear village’, but I don't think they're down and out yet.” The battle continues.

A.And it doesn't look like it'll be resolved anytime soon.

B.The main argument against nuclear energy is that it isn't safe.

C.Nuclear power could only end the world instead of saving it!

D.Many people believe that they will benefit from the unclear energy.

E.Unlike fossil fuels, nuclear power doesn't create greenhouse gases.

F.But France and the United States remain loyal supporters of atomic energy.

G.This higher cost of using “green energy” is usually passed onto the consumer.

1.______ 2.______ 3.______ 4.______ 5.______

 

Some experts feel that the automobile is to “die”. They see a day in the not?too?distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to become rotten iron and steel rubbish. __1._ They think that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the near future.

__2._ It should become smaller, safer, and more money?saving, and should not be powered by the petrol engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution?free than present types.

Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic jam. __3._

When the auto enters the freeway system, a retractable arm, which can be moved inwards or backwards, will drop from the auto and touch a rail that is similar to the subway trains electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. _4._

The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the freeway. _5. It is guessed that an automated freeway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present?day freeway.

A.Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay.

B.The computer will then monitor all of the car's movements.

C.One proposed solution to this problem is the automated freeway system.

D.Experts have different views on what role autos will play in the near future.

E.The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years.

F.Drivers in the freeway system can sit back and do nothing but control the direction.

G.The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the sound speaker that will warn him of his coming exit.
