Millions of people around the world cook their food over a smoky fire every day. It isoften difficult to find wood for the fire. People who do not have wood must spendlarge amounts of money on cooking fuel. However, there is a much easier way tocook food using energy from the sun. Solar cookers, or ovens, have been used forcenturies.
Solar ovens consist of a system of reflectors and a cooking pot. The rest is up to yourimagination! Once you have collected or bought your solar oven, you can use it toprepare hot meals in the backyard, at a campground or wherever your heart desires.Of all the inventions that could benefit humankind, a reliable solar cooker remainsone of the most necessary. Countless people across the developing world still cooktheir food by burning wood or even cow dung, causing breathing problems and severepollution in some regions.
The searching for a practical solar cooker has gone on for decades and produceddozens of models. But none of them have caught on importantly for use in thedeveloping world because they can’t store heat. Without the ability to store heat, acooker cannot be used, for example, on cloudy days.
But now a group based at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology(NTNU) is reporting a discovery in solar cookers. They say it will lead to theproduction of practical solar cookers within a year and a half and it can store enoughheat during a sunny day to work for an entire additional day, even if it is cloudy.

There is a much easier way to cook food using energy from the sun.(V)
Solar cookers, or ovens, have not been used for centuries.(X)

The high speed railway connects Beijing with five provincial capitals. Part of the line,from Zhengzhou to Guangzhou, was in operation before the whole line was connected.The opening of the Beijing to Zhengzhou section has connected the entire line. Itcovers a total length of 2,298 kilometers.
The Beijing-Guangzhou line connects one third of China’s population and more than40 percent of its economic power. Travelers benefit from the efficient network, andfind that their hometowns are not that far away.
As the American publication Newsweek puts it: China is now engaged in a “railwayrevolution”. These 350 kilometer per hour high-speed railway trains have made thecountry’s vast territory “substantially smaller”, and changed the countryeconomically.

High-speed rail is a type of rail transport that operates significantly faster thantraditional rail traffic, using an integrated system of specialized rolling stock anddedicated tracks. While there is no single standard that applies worldwide, new linesin excess of 250 km/hr and existing lines in excess of 200 km/hr are widelyconsidered to be high-speed, with some extending the definition to include muchlower speeds (e.g. 160 km/hr) in areas for which these speeds still representsignificant improvements. The first such system began operations in Japan in 1964and was widely known as the bullet train. High-speed trains normally operate onstandard gauge tracks of continuously welded rail on grade-separated right-of-waythat incorporates a large turning radius in its design.
Many countries have developed high-speed rail to connect major cities, includingAustria , Belgium, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Poland, Portugal, Russia,South Korea, Sweden, Taiwan, turkey, United Kingdom, United States andUzbekistan. Only in Europe does HSR cross international borders. China has 16,000km of HSR, accounting for 60 percent of the world’s total.

Cars are an important part of life in the United States. Without a car most people feelthat they are poor. And even if a person is poor he doesn't feel really poor when hehad a car.
Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers. He probablydidn't know how much the car was going to affect American culture. The car made theUnited Stated a nation on wheels. And it helped make the United States what it istoday.
There are three main reasons why the car becomes so popular in the United States.First of all, the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The carprovides the most comfortable and cheapest form of transportation. With a car peoplecan go anyplace without spending a lot of money.
The second reason cars are popular is the fact that the United States never reallydeveloped an efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation. Long-distancetrains have never been as common in the country as they are in other parts of theworld. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service provided by planes. But it istoo expensive to be used frequently.
The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit ofindependence is what really made cars popular. Americans don't like to wait for a bus,or a train or even a plane. They don' t like to have to follow an exact schedule. A cargives them the freedom to schedule their own time. And this is the freedom thatAmericans want most to have.
The gas shortage has caused a big problem for Americans. But the answer will not bea bigger system of public transportation. The real solution will have to be a new kindof car, one that does not use so much gas.
1. We can learn from this passage that Americans( B ).

A． Americans like to plan their own time
B． The United States does not have enough public transportation
C． Americans will not feel poor when they travel in their cars
4. “A nation on wheels” in the second paragraph means that( B ).
A． everyone in the United States owns a car
B． the United States produces most of the cars in the world

Car crashes are the top killer of American teenagers. Most of the crashes result fromdistracted driving—not paying attention to the road.
Ryan Didone was a fifteen-year-old passenger in a car that hit a tree. He was one ofthe nation's more than thirty thousand victims of traffic crashes in 2008. Nearly fourthousand deaths, about twelve percent involved drivers age fifteen to twenty.
Ryan's father, Thomas Didone, is a police captain in Marylan. "It was aninexperienced, immature driver driving at night with a carload of kids. He wasdistracted, he was going too fast, and it ended up causing one death and someseriously injured." He shares the story of his son's death to help educate teens andtheir families about distracted driving.
Jim Jennings from the Allstate Insurance Company says the number one cause ofdistracted-driving accidents is the mobile phone. He says talking on the phone orreaching for it is like drinking four beers and driving. "If you're texting while driving,you are twenty-three times more likely to get into an accident than somebody whoisn't."
Government and private groups are using public service announcements and events tobring more attention to the problem. For example, the insurance industry recently helda safety event for teen drivers. At first, nineteen-year-old Kevin Schumann easilyavoided large, inflatable dolls thrown in front of the car to represent children. He alsoavoided orange cones representing the edge of the road. Then, as part of the test, hestarted texting. He hit several cones and at least one doll. "That's what really openedup the experience for me to prove how bad it is to really text and drive."
Debbie Pickford of Allstate Insurance says teens are especially at risk from distracteddriving —and not just because they lack experience on the roads. "According to theresearch, teens don't really have fully developed brains until they’re twenty-five yearsold. You put those two things together and you get a much,much higher risk." A newlaw proposes a graduated driver licensing system. Graduated means teenagers startwith restrictions like on night driving and numbers of passengers. They could not geta full driver's license until age eighteen.
1.According to the passage, （ A ） is the most likely to lead to a traffic accidentwhile you are driving．
A． texting on the mobile phone
B． reaching for a cell phone．
C． talking on the mobile phone
2. We can learn from the second paragraph that( B )．
A、 drivers who resulted in nearly 4,000 deaths are teenagers
B、 over 30,000 victims have died from traffic crashes so far
C、 it was at night that Ryan Didone died from a car accident
3. A safety event held by insurance industry was meant to ( B ).
A． attract more teenagers to take part in it
B． draw enough attention to teenagers' distracted driving
C． make more teenagers practice avoiding large barriers
4. The passage is probably followed by a concluding paragraph about ( C )．
A． much higher risk
B． teen brain development
C． measures to be taken
5. Of all the following, which is the best title for the passage?( B )
A． Car Crashes —the Top Killer.
B． Distracted Driving —Let's Avoid!
C． Drunken Driving — Dangerous Enough！

Of all the websites, one that has attracted attention recently is my space.com. Most ofthis attention has come from the hacks is indeed a tough reality, shutting down the siteis not the answer. If my space.com shut down, another site would place. Therefore,the right way is to teach teens how to use the site safely and educate them .
One of the good way is to change the privacy setting on your profile to “private”actually post their home and school addresses, date of birth, and so on, often predatorsknow exactly where they will be The most information that is safe is your first nameand province. Anything more is basically life.
