Cars are lots of fun, but they could also be dangerous. We have to be careful when we drive them or ride in them.
It's always a good idea to put on your seat belt when you're in a car. Why? Think about this example: You put an egg on a skateboard and give it a push. If the skateboard hits a stone, it will stop, but the egg won't. It will fly through the air, hit the ground and break.
Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a stone, the egg won't go flying; it will stay safely on the skateboard.
Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts in 1849.
Air bags are also very important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn't enough. If the car is going really fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear them. Most new cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something, its air bags will come out quickly in less than one second to keep the people inside safe.

5.Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?

We live on the earth. We use the sea around us. What do we take from the ocean? And what do we give to it?

We take fishes from the ocean—millions of kilograms of fish, every year, to feed millions of people.  1.   We take minerals(矿物) from the ocean. We can get salt by evaporating(蒸发) seawater.  2.    Many other minerals, such as gold, can be also got from the sea, but not by simple evaporation. 3.    Seaweed(海草) becomes food of many kinds— even candy, and ice cream—as well as medicine. Believe it or not, fresh water is another gift from the sea. We can’t drink ocean water.   4.   But ocean water becomes fresh water when the salts are removed. In the future, we will find ourselves depending more and more on fresh water from the sea.

The sea gives us food, fertilizer, minerals, water and other gifts. What do we give the sea? We pollute the ocean all the time. 　 5.　 Throwing waste into the ocean is killing off sea life. Yet as the world population grows, we may need the sea and its gifts more than ever.

We are finally learning that if we destroy our sea, we might also destroy ourselves. Hopefully, it is not too late.
