There are many kinds of cars in this world．My grandfather thinks this is because cars are like their drivers．He says, “Rich people have expensive cars, big people have large cars, and old people drive old cars．” But I don't agree with him．

　　My neighbor, Mrs．Hill, is 82 years old．She drives only on Tuesday, and then she drives only to the bank．She never drives more than 30 kilometers an hour．Do you think Mrs．Hill has a very old and small car? No! Her car is new．It's very large, and it can go 200 kilometers an hour!

　　My friend Mike is an artist．He paints beautiful pictures with lots of colors．But his car is black．Mrs．Bates has a very, very old car．It often has some trouble．Does she drive that kind of car because she is poor? No, she has four restaurants and two million dollars in the bank．My uncle Joe has a very small car．Every Sunday, he drives to the country with his wife, his three children, his mother and his dog．

　　Now, you have read about my friends and their cars．Do you agree with my grandfather? Maybe you have a car．Does it say something about you?

阅读理解，阅读下列内容，从每小题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。

　　For many years, no one could communicate with people who had been born without hearing．These deaf people were not able to use a spoken language．

　　But, beginning in the 1700s, the deaf were taught a special language．Using this language, they could share thoughts and ideas with others．The language they used was a language without sound．It was a sign language．

　　How did this sign language work? The deaf were taught to make certain movements using their hands, faces, and bodies．These movements stood for things and ideas．People might move their forefingers across their lips．This meant, “You are not telling the truth．” They might tap their chins with three fingers．This meant “my uncle”．

　　The deaf were also taught to use a finger alphabet(字母表)．They used their fingers to make the letters of the alphabet．In this way, they spelled out words．Some deaf people could spell out words at a speed of 130 words per minute．

　　Sign language and finger spelling are not used as much as they once were．Today, the deaf are taught to understand others by watching their lips．They are also taught how to speak．
