    We can get the weather report on the Internet. We can also know it by watching TV or listening to the radio. But how can we know it without TVs, radios or the Internet? Now let me tell you some other ways.

    One way is to study the clouds. In fact, the higher the clouds are, the better the weather will be; the lower the clouds are, the worse the weather will be. If the thick and fluffy(轻软状的) clouds get bigger early in the day, then it will rain. If a sudden, cool and dark thunder­cloud appears, then a storm is about to come.

    Colours in the sky tell us about the weather, too. A golden ring around the moon warns us that a storm is on the way.

The rainbow has a message, too. If the sun is in the west and the rainbow is in the east, the rain will be moving away from you.

  1. (1) We can only get the weather report on the Internet, by watching TV or listening to the radio.
  2. (2) The lower the clouds are, the better the weather will be.
  3. (3) If you see the thick and fluffy clouds get bigger early in the day, you know it will rain.
  4. (4) A golden ring around the sun warns us that a storm is on the way.
  5. (5) When the sun is in the west and the rainbow is in the east, the rain may be coming.

    Red squirrels were common (常见的) in British forests and countryside. But there are1than 140,000 red squirrels left now and most of them are in Scotland. However, grey squirrels are now so common that many people2them. They can hunt and kill them legally (合法的).

The red squirrel has a head—and—body length of 19 to 23 cm and a tail length of 15 to 20 cm. But the grey squirrel is a5animal. The head—and—body length is between 23 and 30 cm. This6allows (允许) them to store more fat and7them to live in a hard winter.

Red squirrels live high up in8, while grey squirrels spend more of their time on the ground. This means the missing of forests greatly influences the red squirrel's population.

The other problem for the red squirrel is illness, it is fatal (致命的) to them.

When the 4 was used up or the river was not clean in a place, man went to another place. However, man is 5 polluting the whole world nowadays. Air pollution is still the most serious pollution. It's bad for living things in the world.

    Many countries don't let people 6 anything bad in the houses and factories in the city. Pollution brought by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of 7 pollution. It's mainly caused by heavy traffic. People say riding bikes is the 8 way to protect the environment in terms of means of transportation. Riding causes no pollution. But even in developed countries, most people don't go to work by bike. It's not because bikes are expensive or people would become tired if they ride to work. It's because the number of cars on the roads becomes larger. More and more people 9 their bikes and go to work by car and then things get worse and worse. There should be special roads only for bikes, making it so difficult and expensive for drivers to drive their cars in the city that they will go back to 10 their bikes.

    Teenagers have a lot of new ideas. Let's have a look at these teenage inventions that might change the world.

    Banana leaves usually go bad in two or three days. Tenth Hadith, a teenager from India, used UV to make the leaves stay fresh for a year. Tenth thinks that one day the leaves will be used for making plates, cups and other things.

    David Cohen, an American teenager, built an earthworm(蚯蚓) robot. It is able to go into the smallest places, where humans or dogs can't go. It will be used for finding people in a fire or an earthquake.

    Remya Jose, a 14­year­old girl from India, found it tiring and boring to hand wash clothes in the nearby river. She reused some bicycle parts and created a washing machine that saves time, energy and keeps people fit at the same time.

    Kenneth Shinozuku, a 15­year­old boy from New York, noticed that his grandfather who got Alzheimer's disease (老年痴呆) would often leave home and get lost. So he invented the wearable sensors (感应器) to help people find their family members like his grandfather.

    What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves? Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping. But none of them are worried about the road ahead.

    Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on driverless (无人驾驶) cars. These cars are now in testing (测试). If the tests are successful, these self-driving cars can be used very soon. But how is it possible for a car to drive itself?

    Some cars already have many features (特点) allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they discover objects close by. They can also control the speed (速度) if there are dangerous conditions, such as snow or wet roads.

    Other features have also changed the way drivers deal with some situations. Scientists believe, with the help of wireless signals (无线信号), cameras and GPS, making a safe self-driving car can be possible. The cause of serious road accidents is usually careless driving or dangerous conditions. The self-driving car may be able to prevent (阻止) these. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer White Drake, for example, doesn't believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technology can also make mistakes.

  1. (1) Driverless cars ________.
    A . cost more than normal car B . make the road safer C . can't control the speed D . are still in testing
  2. (2) From the passage, we know some cars already have the ability (能力) to ________.
    A . park themselves B . pick up their owners C . prevent all the dangerous situations D . refuse careless drivers
  3. (3) According to scientists, safe driverless cars can work well with the help of ________.
    A . American lawyers B . excellent drivers C . wireless signals, cameras and GPS D . scientists and passengers
  4. (4) What's the passage mainly talked about?
    A . The successful tests of driverless cars. B . Driverless cars will take the place of normal cars soon. C . To introduce the advantages (优点) and disadvantages (缺点) of driverless cars. D . The future of driverless cars.
