Science is developing rapidly. A kind of little cars may someday take place of today’s big ones. If people drive such cars in the future, there would be less pollution in the air. There will be more spaces for parking cars in cities. The streets will be less crowd. And driving will be safe as these little cars can go only 65 km per hour. The future cars will be fine for getting round a city, so they will not be useful for long trips. Little cars w ill go 200 km before needing to stop for more gases. If big cars are still used along with the small ones, two sets of roads will be needed in the future. Some roads will be used for the big fast cars and another roads will be needed for the slow small ones. It is said that three so little cars can fit in with the space now needed for one car of the usual size.

Consider the tomato: easy to grow, healthy to eat, tasty in just about any recipe and pleasant to look at. And come late summer, in steady supply. Though you can find it during the coldest winter months, August is the tomato's season to shine. Farmers' markets and grocery stores are bursting with lesser-known but arguably tastier varieties, including purple cherries and big heirlooms.
"Heirlooms ripened on the vine(藤) are the tastiest of all tomatoes," says Amy Goldman Fowler, author of The Heirloom Tomato. "I think their beauty is more than skin-deep." Heirloom seeds have been around for at least 50 years, often passed down from generation to generation. You may hear cherry or heirloom used to describe a tomato at hand, but there are many different kinds of tomatoes, and growers hav
e fun giving catchy names to varieties: Mortgage Lifters, Beefsteaks, Oxhearts, Early Girls.
And all of them come with health benefits. Tomatoes are a good source of the antioxidant lycopene (抗氧化番茄红素), which is thought to help lower a person's risk for heart problems and cancer. Tomatoes also contain healthy vitamins(维生素) A and C. For the best fruit (they're fruits, not vegetables), choose tomatoes with shiny, firm skin and a little give, and store them at room temperature away from direct sunlight. Keep them out of the fridge, since cold temperatures can affect the original taste.
"They satisfy something more than just taste," says Fowler. "Tomatoes feed your soul."
1.In which season do tomatoes sell best?
A. Spring. B. Summer.
C. Autumn. D. Winter.
2.What can you learn from the passage?
A. Tomatoes are healthy vegetables.
B. Direct sunlight helps to store tomatoes.
C. Tomatoes go bad more quickly in the fridge.
D. Heirlooms are tastier than the other tomatoes.
3.Why do tomatoes benefit people?
A. They can produce antioxidant lycopene.
B. They may prevent some diseases.
C. They can be used as medicine.
D. They may make people's skin shiny.

It is made from grapes grown without pesticides (杀虫剂) and chemicals, is kind to the environment and rarely causes hangovers (酒后头痛). Sales of organic wine are booming in the UK.
According to the organic food and farming group Soil Association, sales of organic beers, wines and spirits rose by 14.3% last year to reach nearly £ 6 million, driven by the demand from consumers who are increasingly seeking “natural” food.
“It seems that people are rediscovering their link with the environment through organic food. Organic wines also taste better, perhaps due to less use of man-made chemicals.” said Finn Cottle of Soil Association. As well as the benefits of producing grapes without using pesticides, organic wine also contains less sulphur dioxide (二氧化硫), which can contribute towards hangovers.
Supermarkets are increasing supplies on their shelves to meet consumer demand, while the switch to online shopping has also helped, as people are more easily able to find what they are looking for. Vintage Roots is now one of the UK’s biggest online shops of organic wine, while Ocado provides more than 100 different organic wines and Daylesford, best-known for its organic vegetable boxes, has branched out into organic wine and spirits.
The discount supermarket Aldi is set to start its first collection of so-called “green” wines this week, offering eight wines with organic certificates. Aldi expects the wines to appeal to the young shoppers who are increasingly concerned about the environmental influence of the produce that they are buying and consuming.
English organic wine producer Oxney Estate’s Noir Rosé recently won the Waitrose prize for the most outstanding rosé wine at the competition. A spokeswoman for Waitrose said: “Organic wine is a growing trend globally and we have seen sales increase by 16% in the last year”.
1.Sales of organic wine are increasing probably because ________.
A. consumers are now more environmentally aware
B. it offers a very different taste from traditional wine
C. consumers are tired of hangovers after drinking
D. it contains no sulphur dioxide or pesticide
2.What’s the main idea of paragraph 4?
A. UK supermarkets welcome organic wine and spirits.
B. Online shopping promotes the sales of organic wine.
C. There’re not enough supplies of organic wine in the UK.
D. Supermarkets should go online to sell more wine.
3.“Waitrose” in the last paragraph is probably ________.[
A. a wine producer B. an organic wine
C. a wine competition D. a news agency
4.The writing purpose of the text is to ________.
A. persuade readers to go green while drinking
B. compare organic wine and traditional wine
C. share with readers wines without hangovers

“She goes to the movies with her friends! How come I can’t go?”
“You love him more than me!”
“I wish I were an only child!”
Parents have heard them all when more than one child resides under their roof. Although siblings(兄弟姐妹) can be the closest of friends, it’s rare to find a child who gets along perfectly with all of his or her siblings.
Kids aren’t always the most rational of human beings----especially younger children. Sometimes, the smallest issue can turn into a major battle and strain a sibling relationship to the breaking point.
Attention. Children are always vying(竞争) for their parents’ attention. The busier the parents are, the greater demand is for their attention and the less they can focus on each child. When there’s a new baby, it can be hard for the other child (or children) to accept losing his or her position as the centre of attention. Sometimes the parents’ attention is focused on a child who is sick or has special needs. Kids will act out and misbehave to get the attention they want if they feel like they’re being ignored.
Sharing.Most homes don’t have unlimited resources. That means all siblings will unavoidably have to share at least some of their things. Giving up a toy or other favorite possessions to a sibling can be especially hard on young children.
Unique personalities. Your oldest child might be the headstrong one while the youngest is quieter and more introverted. Differences in character can lead to clashes. Age and gender differences can also lead to sibling fighting.
Fairness problems. Children are like little lawyers, always asking fairness and equality and fighting for what they consider are their natural-born rights. A younger sibling might complain that her elder sister goes to a concert and she has to stay home, while the elder sister complains that she has to babysit her little sister instead of going out with her friends. Feeling of unfair treatment and sibling jealousy can lead to hate.
1.The first three sentences are a kind of _______.
A. warning B. requirements
C. complains D. doubts
2.From the last paragraph we learn that _______.
A. children don’t like to do things for parents
B. children expect to be treated fairly
C. children have the right to play outside
D. children want to become lawyers
3.The purpose of writing this passage is to _________.
A. introduce the different characters of children
B. require parents to pay equal attention to children
C. give advice on dealing with sibling rivalry
D. explain the root of sibling conflict
