Mole than 30,000 drivers and front seat passengers are killed or seriously injured each year. At a speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third-floor windows. Wearing a seat belt saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half.
Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over 14 in most vehicles(交通工具) must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you could be fined up to ￡50. It will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the driver's responsibility(责任) to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a .seat belt of some kind.
However, you do not have to wear a seat belt if you are reversing(倒开) your vehicle; or you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid(有效) medical certificate (证书) which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these facts request you before you decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so, and you may be fined if you cannot prove to the court that you have been excused from wearing it.
56. Wearing a seat belt in a vehicle ___
A. reduces road accidents by more than half
B. saves lives while driving at a speed up to 30 miles per hour

There are ten islands with a total land area of 75 square miles and a total population of 123,000.

George had stolen some money, but the police had caught him and he had been put in prison. Now his trial was about to begin, and he felt sure that he would be found guilty (有罪) and sent to prison for a long time.
Then he discovered that an old friend of his was one of the members of the jury(陪审团)at his trial. Of course, he did not tell anybody, but he managed to see his friend secretly one day. He said to him, "Jim, I know that the jury will find me guilty of having stolen the money. I cannot hope to be found not guilty of taking it -- that would be too much to expect. But I should be grateful to you for the rest of my life if you could persuade the other members of the jury to add a strong recommendation (劝告) for mercy to their statement that they consider me guilty."
"Well, George," answered Jim. "I shall certainly try to do what I can for you as an old friend, but of course I cannot promise anything. The other eleven people on the jury look terribly strong-minded to me."
George said that he would quite understand if Jim was not able to do anything for him, and thanked him warmly for agreeing to help.

A moment' s drilling by the dentist may make us nervous and upset. Many of us cannot stand pain. To avoid the pain of a drilling that may last perhaps a minute or two, we demand the "needle" -- a shot of novocaine (一种局部麻醉) -- that deadens' that nerves around the tooth.
Now it's true that the human body has developed its millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of it. This helps us adjust (适应) to the world. Without our nerves -- and our brain, which is a bundle of nerves -- we wouldn't know what' s happening. But we pay for our sensitivity(敏感). We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body. The history of suffering pain is based on the human body being open to pain.
But there is a way to handle pain. kook at the India fakir(苦行僧)who sits on a bed of nails. Fakirs can put a needle right through an arm, and feel no pain. This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the minds can deal with pain.
The big thing in withstanding pain in our attitude toward it. If the dentist says, "This will hurt a little," it helps us to accept the pain. By staying relaxed, and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation (知觉), we can handle the pain without falling apart. After all, although pain is an unpleasant sensation, it is still a sensation, and sensations are part of life.
71. From the passage, the writer seems to tell us _________.
A. that we needn't pay more attention to pain B. that pain is good for us
C. how to avoid pain at the dentist's D. how to handle pain
72. The result of pain is to _________.
A. help us get more sensations B. keep us sensitive
C. let us know what's going on D. help us change the world
73. The sentence "we pay for our sensitivity" in paragraph 2 most probably means _____.
A. we suffer because of being sensitive
B. we are lucky to have developed our senses
C. our sensitivity costs us a great deal
D. we have to pay the dentist for his making us sensitive to pain
74. The word "withstanding" in the last paragraph could be best replaced by which of the following?
A. fighting B. handling C. suffering D. accepting
75. According to the passage, we should _________ to deal with the pain.
A. make ourselves less sensitive B. do something to avoid danger
C. treat it as an interesting sensation D. do what the India fakirs do

When the people in far-away parts of Alaska were dying because they did not have the medicine for a throat disease, men decided to get them by dog teams. It was a terrible journey through blinding snow and freezing wind. The driver tied skins about the dogs to keep them warm, but the wind cut through and nearly froze them as they ran. The dogs breathed so much of the icy air that it injured their lungs. But they struggled on until they reached the town with the medicine and saved the people's lives. These dogs were real heroes. Had it been today, the medicine would have been sent in a few hours by plane.
