    The old Volkswagen Beetle “The Bug” is making a comeback. People who own them are planning to keep them forever. People who don’t own them are paying high prices when they can find one for sale. It's more remarkable (值得一提的) when you realize that VW doesn't even make them anymore!

        A spokesman for Volkswagen of America says there were about five million “Bugs” on American roads in 1997. That was the last year they were shipped to America. VW calculates that about four million of them are still running... and running... and running.

        Used car businessmen say they can't keep “Bugs” on their lots these days. They feel it's because these cars enjoy a fame of reliable (可靠的), inexpensive transportation. The cars average about 30 miles per gallon of gas.

        But all hasn't been smooth going for the “Bugs”. The heating system is poor. And since it travels very close to the ground, large cars tend to splash (飞溅) it with winter's snow and mud. Some in the safety field consider the Beetle as defenseless against heavier cars. But the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has nothing that shows any problem with them at all.

    1. The reason why people like to have a “Bug” is that ________.

        A. it is defensive and travels very close to the ground

        B. it travels smoothly and safely

        C. it is cheap and saves a lot of gas

        D. it is reliable and inexpensive in transportation

    2. What is the problem with a “Bug”?

        A. It is not as strong as the other cars. B. It does not go smoothly.

        C. It has a poor heating system.　　　　   D. It travels too fast.

    3. In the last sentence, the word“them”refers to ________.

        A.“Bugs”

        B. heavier cars

        C. some people in the safety field

        D. People from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

    4. The Americans ________.

        A. used to have interest in“Bugs”　　 B. start to feel interested in“Bugs”

        C. have never lost interest in“Bugs” 　　   D. have become interested in“Bugs”again

     

    答案：D;C;A;D
    提示：

    		1. D  由文章第三段的第二句可得出正确答案。   

    2. C  从第四段的第二句The heating system is poor. 可得出。   

    3. A  分析句子的结构及理解全句后即可知正确答案为A。   

    4. D  The old Volkswagen Beetle－“The Bug”—is making a comeback. 这句话表明这种车又回来了。

    This is my third story. When I was 17，I read a quote that 1 something like，“If you live each day 2 it was your last，someday you'll most certainly be right.”Since then，for the past thirty?three years，I've looked 3 the mirror every morning and asked myself：“If today were the last day of my life，would I want to do what I am about to do today？”And whenever the answer has been“No”for too many days in a 4 ，I know I need to change something.

Don't let the noise of 　18 opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most importantly，have the courage to 　19 your heart and intuition(直觉). They 20 already know what you truly want to become.
