Although people drive in all countries, the rules can be quite different between nations and areas. For this reason, you should always learn the laws before you decide to drive in a foreign country.

In the U．S., people in Alaska may have a learner's permit at the age of fourteen. This is quite different from the driving laws of Niger, where a person must be at least twenty­three years old to drive. If you want to know the minimum(最小的)driving age in most countries, the answer is eighteen. It may also surprise you to learn that not every country allows people to drive, although most of them do. For example, many years ago, women were not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia no matter how old they are. But from June, 2018, women can drive.

Driving on the right or left side of the road is also different. In Great Britain, Cyprus, Australia, India, and Malaysia, people drive on the left. However, in the U．S., Mexico, France and Canada, people are required to drive on the right. In fact, one country can have different driving rules for different areas. People in Hong Kong drive on the left, while drivers in other parts of China use the right side of the road.

Other different driving laws between countries include those about using mobile phones. In Japan, using any kind of mobile phones is illegal(违法的), even if you do not need to hold the phone with your hands. However, in Argentina and Australia, drivers are allowed to talk on their mobile phones if they do not use their hands.

You might also find it interesting to learn that some countries have very unusual laws. For example, in Cyprus, it is against the law to eat or drink anything while driving.

1.Which of the following is not discussed in the passage?

A.The driving age.

B.The driving speed.

C.Right or left side traffic.

D.Safety calls while driving.

2.What can we know about driving from the passage?

A.It is fun to drive in Britain in the afternoon.

B.Women were not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia many years ago.

C.In Cyprus, you may make a phone call while driving.

D.It's against laws for an Australian driver to use a mobile.

3.What does the underlined word “those” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

A.Drivers. B.Mobile phones. C.Driving laws. D.Countries.

4.What is the main idea of the passage?

A.Driving in all countries shares a common purpose.

B.Countries have different ways to make laws on driving.

C.There are differences in laws about driving among countries.

D.People in different countries drive on different sides of the road.

纪念英雄的不同方式

Countries, cities and people all have their own heroes. There are different kinds of heroes: politicians, soldiers, film stars, sport stars and musicians. And there are many different ways of remembering them, too. Here are some of the things that we do to make sure that we don't forget our heroes.

Sometimes we build statues or sculptures of heroes, especially of politicians and soldiers, but sometimes of writers too. Many cities in South America have a statue of Simon Bolivar(he helped lead many South American countries to independence). And the famous Mount Rushmore in the USA remembers four US presidents of the past.

We often remember soldiers and other people who died in war with a monument,like the Monument to the people's heroes in Beijing, China, or a memorial(纪念物), like the Eternal Flame at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Paris.

Some countries have a special remembrance day, like the one every January in the USA for Dr Martin Luther King, the human rights leader.

When Lady Diana Spencer died in 1997, in Paris, many people left flowers and messages near the place where the car accident happened. Now there is a Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fountain in Hyde Park in London.

Sometimes places are named after famous people: for example, Liverpool, in England and Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil both have airports named after local musicians, John Lennon and Tom Jobim.

In Hollywood, The Walk of Fame has the names of film, TV and music celebrities in stars on the pavement(人行道). Very famous celebrities have their handprints, footprints and autographs in concrete (混凝土) at Hollywood's Grauman's Chinese Theatre.

Different countries and people remember their heroes in different ways.

1.Whom is the Mount Rushmore for?

A.For Lady Diana.

B.For Simon Bolivar.

C.For four US presidents.

D.For Martin Luther King.

2.When is the special day for Dr Martin Luther King in America?

[素材选自Life Book 3]

旅游胜地——巴黎

The streets are quiet，and the stores are closed. There's the smell of fresh bread from a bakery somewhere. It would be hard to say which time of the day in Paris I prefer, but this probably is. Soon the streets will be full of people and traffic, and the real Paris will appear as the city wakes up. Under the city are hundreds of miles of tunnels. There are old subways and wine cellars that have been made into galleries. During the 19th century, farmers grew mushrooms in them. During World War Ⅱ， the French fighters also used them. Since the 1970s, groups of young people have spent days and nights there. Parties, theater performances, art galleries—everything goes here!

Everywhere you go under Paris, there is history and stories. Writers often write about the tunnels in their books. Victor Hugo mentions them in his famous novel Les Miserables. There is an underground pool there—with fish! Tourists can visit parts of the Paris underground.

You're not allowed to enter other parts of the underground. However, there are people who will take you to visit them. I have found two unofficial tour guides—Dominique and Yopie. They take me through many tunnels, and after a couple of hours we arrive at a room which isn't on any map.

It's comfortable and clean, with a table, chairs, and a bed. Yopie tells me there are many other places like this. Many people come down here to have parties. They like the room.

What kind of vehicle(车辆) will you choose when traveling between provinces? Many people may like traveling by train because it's safer and cheaper. Now the high­speed railways have connected eastern and western China as well as the south and the north.

A new high­speed railway opened on Sept. 10th, 2016. It connects Zhengzhou in Henan Province with Xuzhou in Jiangsu Province.
