The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!
But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡碱)in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee(IOC) has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.

The goal of the yearly competition is to accurately repair a car that has been disabled on purpose:
Responding to the call, "Gentlemen, start your engines, if you can" at 9:15 a.m., the teams ran to 50 cars
with the same mechanical problems. They had 90 minutes to find and repair many "bugs" in the starting,
electrical, lighting, braking, temperature control, and power systems. The team from Texas first drove
their car across the finish line, winning the contest after judges determined that they had removed all of
the bugs.
Bradley J. Bolton and Aaron Clay were able to get their car started in less than 30 minutes. In feet,
the pair from Texas spent months preparing for the competition with, their instructor. They walked
away with $2,500 in scholarships and something interesting to add to their resumes (履历). With many
regional competitions, Ford and AAA gave away a total of $6 million in prizes and scholarships to this
year's competitors.
"Aaron and Bradley proved today that they are America's best teen auto-repair team," Allan Stanley,
manager of Ford/AAA Student Auto Skills, said. "Their hard work and drive to be the top high school
auto technicians are typical of every participant here. The auto industry must attract such talented young
people to keep America's vehicles operating safely." Each year, the Student Auto Skills competition
determines the nation's best high school auto technicians with a two-part test. After a written exam
worth 40% of their grade, the 50 two-person teams — each representing a state — compete in
hands-on repair work, which is worth 60% of their total.
Darryl Hazel, senior president of Ford Motor Company, said, "Ford and its dealer (经销商) network
are offering these talented young people opportunities to train for high-tech careers with excellent
wages."
