Every culture has a recognized point when a child becomes an adult, when rules must be followed and tests 1 .
In China, 2 teenagers can get their ID cards at 16, many only 3 themselves as an adult when they are 18. In the US, where everyone drives, the main 4 to the freedom of adult life is learning to drive . At 16, 5 teens take their driving test. When they have their 6 , they drive into the grown – up world.
“ 7 wants to ride the cheese bus to school,” said Eleanor Fulham, 17. She recalled the pressure, 8 from kids from wealthier families. “It’s like you are not cool 9 you don’t have a car,” she said.
10 recent research, 41 percent of 16 to 19 – year – olds in the US own cars, 11 from 23 percent in 1985. Although most of these cars are bought by parents, some teens get part – time jobs to help 12 .
Not all families can 13 cars for their children. In cities with subways and 14 parking, some teenagers don’t want cars. But in rich suburb areas without subways, and where bicycles are more for fun than 15 , it is strange for a teenager not to have a car.
16 police say 16 – year – olds have almost three times more accidents than 18 and 19 –year – olds. This has made many parents 17 before letting their kids drive.
Julie Sussman, of Virginia, decided that her son Chad, 15, will wait until he is 17 to 18 his learner’s permit.
Chad said he has accepted his parents’ decision, although it has caused some teasing(奚落) from his friends. “They say that I am 19 ,” he said. “But I would rather be alive than driving, and I don’t really trust my friends on the road either.”
In China 20 more families get cars, more 18 – year – olds learn to drive. Will this become a big step to becoming an adult?

A
In the 19th century Americans
from the eastern states moved out west to settle in the
rich new lands along the Pacific Coast. The most difficult part of their trip
was crossing the “Great American Desert” in the western part of the United
States by horse and wagon.
The western
desert can be very dangerous. There is little water and there are few trees.
But the desert also has scenery of great beauty. Tall towers of red and yellow
stone rise sharply from the flat, sandy valley floor. The scene has been
photographed many times and appears in movies and on TV.
In Arizona, man-made dams across the Colorado River have made two large lakes in the middle of the dry desert country. At Lake Powell, the red stone arch(拱桥)of Rainbow Bridge rises high above the blue lake.
There are few roads. Many areas of Lake Powell's shore can only be reached by boat or on foot. But hikers(徒步旅行者)in this empty desert land sometimes find very old native American pictures, painted on the rocks.
In Death Valley, California, the summer temperature rises to 130-165 degrees. Fahrenheit. There is less than two inches of rain each year. Death Valley is the lowest place in America--
925 meters below sea level. In the 1800s,many travellers died when they tried to cross this waterless valley in the terrible heat.
Although the desert is dry and seems empty, there is plenty of life if you look closely. Small insects, snakes, and rats have learned how to live in the desert heat. They live underground and come out at night, when it is cool. Plants such as cacti need very little water. When it does rain in the desert (sometimes only once or twice a year), plants grow quickly, and flowers open in a single day. For a short time, the desert is covered with brilliant colour.
1. In the 19th century, Americans moved from the east to the west because they____.
A enjoyed the trip
B wanted to make their home there
C wanted to find new grassland there
D had no water to drink
2. From the passage, we can conclude that___.
A the western desert is a good place for people to live in
B there is little water but there are many trees in the desert
C the desert is dangerous but it is full of beauty
D till now, people know little about the desert
3. In the 1800s many travellers died in Death Valley because of ___.
A illness B high temperature
C cold weather D poisonous water
4. In the desert, animals will die___.
A if they move about B if they can't make holes underground
C if they come out at night D if they drink much water
B
When Charles Strattion was five, he stopped growing. His mother took him to see the famous showman, P.T.Barnum thought a small person would be the perfect addition to his show. He hired Charles’ parents along with him, and they traveled around the world together.
He gave the two-foot-tall Charles a new name, general Tom Thumb. He taught Tom how to sing, dance, act, and tell jokes. When he felt Tom was ready to perform on stage, he made up ads. To stir up great interest, he said that Tom was eleven years old and had come from England.
During the show, Tom fought battles pretendedly with tall people. He also danced upon a wooden plate held by a person who was eight feet tall.
Tom’s act was very popular and brought in a lot of money. By the time Tom was an adult, he had grown very rich. He had become a billionaire at the age of twenty-five.
Fortunately for Tom, Mr. Barnum added more little people to his show, and Tom became lucky in love as well. One of the little people was Lavinia Warren, a school teacher. Tom was able to win her love, and they married.
The ceremony and reception were the talk of the town. They were attended by many rich and famous people and by about two thousand guests. Crowds filled the streets of New York to have a look at their tiny wedding carriage. The couple even met with President Abraham Lincoln on their honeymoon, just before going to live in Tom’s house in Connecticut.
Their wedding, which took place during the Civil War, provided a welcome escape from the sad problems of war.

A
People in the United States honor their parents with two special days：Mother’s Day，on the second Sunday in May，and Father’s Day，on the third Sunday in June．These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents．They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens．They give love and care．These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers．More mothers now work outside the home．More fathers must help with child—care．
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways．On Mother’s Day people wear carnations(康乃馨)．A red one symbolizes a living mother．A white one shows that the mother is dead．Many people attend religious services to honor parents．It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery．On these days families get together at home，as well as in restaurants．They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day．These are days of fun and good feelings and memories．
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts． Children make them in school．Many people make their own presents．These are valued more than the
ones bought in stores．It is not the value of the gift that is important，but
it is “the thought that counts．”Greeting card stores，florists，candy
makers，bakeries，telephone companies，and other stores do a lot of business
during
these holidays．

who were going to the goldfields to look for gold．
“You should have brought trousers to sell. In the goldfields we need strong trousers that don’t wear out，”one young miner advised Strauss．So Levi Strauss took some of his denim to the nearest tailor and had him make the miner a pair
of trousers．The miner was so pleased that he told other miners about the wonderful newcomer，Levi，and soon Levi Strauss had to open a shop，producing enough trousers for the miners．The miners wanted trousers that were comfortable to ride in and were low cut so that they could bend over easily to pick up the gold from under their feet．Besides they wanted the trousers to have big useful pockets．One miner complained that the gold in his pockets kept tearing them．So Levi put metal corners in the pockets to make them stronger．Very soon，miners and cowboys from all over came to get fitted up with Levi’s trousers．Today more than a hundred years later， Levi’s trousers walk the world a Levi’s blue jeans(牛仔裤)．

Ⅲ. One possible version:
Recently the average number of personal computers in every 100 families has been
increasing rapidly in our city．In 1995 there were only two or three computers
in per hundred families．In 1997，10％ of families owned computers，and 20％ in
1999．With the wide use of computer in all kinds of fields and the increase of
family income，50％ of the families have their own computers at home in
2003．Searching for information easily and conveniently on the Internet and
computer lessons taught in schools are also the reasons why so many families have
computers．It is believed that in the near future more and more people will have
computers of their own．
