There is not enough oil in the world now. As time goes by, it becomes less and less. So what are we going to do when oil runs out? Perhaps we will go back to use our horses, carriages(马车) and bicycles.

In the Second World War, some people didn't use gas made from petroleum(石油) in their cars. They made gas from wood and plants instead. The car didn't go fast, but they ran, so this was better than nothing. However, in the future, we can't cut down all our trees to make gas; we need our trees for other things, too.

Besides different types of gas, we can also use electricity(电) to run our cars, but first we must make electricity! Some countries have coal and make electricity with that, but we might not always have coal, either. Other countries have big, strong rivers, and they can use the power of water to turn turbines(涡轮机) and make electricity more easily and cheaply.

We are also able to get power from the ocean tides(海潮). We put turbines into the mouth of the river. When the tide comes in, the water turns the turbines and when it goes out, it turns them again.

1.Is there enough oil in the world now?

________________________________________________________________________

2.When might people have to go back to use horses and carriages?

________________________________________________________________________

3.What did some people use to make gas in the Second World War?

4.Does oil become more or less?

________________________________________________________________________

5.Where are you also able to get power?

A lift is very useful. It looks like a small room. It goes up and down all day. Sometimes a worker stands in the lift. He or she operates（操作） it up and down. In modern lifts there's no worker. People walk in. They know what floor they want to go. They push a button(按钮)and the lift goes to that floor. It's very fast and easy.

Lifts are very important to us. Why? Think about a tall building. Maybe it has twenty floors. Maybe it has fifty or more. Who can walk up all the stairs (楼梯 )?Maybe people can climb them once. Can someone climb thirty floors to an office every day? Can small children walk up to their rooms on the twenty-four floor? Can their mothers or fathers carry food up to all those stairs? Of course not. We can have very high buildings because we have lifts. We could not have all the beautiful tall buildings without lifts. Because it is too tired for people to climb the stairs every day.
