There are two ways of driving in the world: if the driver’s seat is on the left and cars travel on the right side of the road, it is called “left-hand driving”, as it is in China, while the other way of driving is called “right-hand driving”, as it is in Britain. Nowadays, around 65% of the world’s population drives on the right of the road, while the rest is used to driving on the left.

Though no one knows the exact reasons, it seems likely that people in ancient times travelled on the left. Roman coins show pictures of horsemen passing on each other’s right. And right-hand people generally got on a horse from the animal’s left. Obviously, it’s safer to do this at the left side of the road, and it makes sense for the horse to be ridden on the left.

A change happened in the late 1700s. When Napoleon conquered nations, he forced them to travel on the right side of the road, which spread left-hand driving throughout Europe. However, Britain still stuck with the right-hand driving rule and countries which were part of the British Empire (帝国) were made to follow. This is why India, Australia and the former British colonies (殖民地) in Africa continue to drive on the left. One exception is Egypt, as that country was defeated by Napoleon before becoming part of the British Empire.

Some countries changed sides’ until modem times. Sweden only moved to driving on the right in 1967 and Iceland changed the following year. Ghana changed sides in 1974. On September 7,2009, Samoa became the third country ever to change from left-to-right-hand driving for the reason that it made it easier to import (进口) cheap cars from right-hand driving Japan, Australia and New Zealand.

So if you want to travel to another country or go on business, make sure you know whether it is left-or right- hand driving to avoid unnecessary troubles.

1.Which picture shows the correct driving in Britain?

A. 　　 B.

C. 　　 D.

2.In ancient times, Romans 　　　　 .

A. travelled on the right

B. rode past each other’s right

C. got on the horses from the right

D. behaved as they liked

3.In modem times, countries follow the same driving way except 　　　　 .

A. Egypt.　　 B. China

C. Sweden　　 D. Australia

4.What is the writer’s purpose for writing this passage?

A. To introduce the development of the two ways of driving.

B. To compare the differences of the two ways of driving.

C. To explain the advantages of the two ways of driving.

D. To complain about the change of the two ways of driving.

A crisis is on the way. Global warming? The world economy? No, the decline of reading. People are just not doing it anymore, especially the young. Who’s responsible? What is responsible? The Internet, of course, and everything that comes with it—Facebook, Twitter, etc.

There’s been a warning about the coming death of literate civilization for a long time. In the 20th century, first it was the movies, then radio, then television that seemed to end the written world. None did. Reading survived; In fact, it not only survived, but it has developed better. The world is more literate than ever before — there are more and more readers and more and more books.

The fact that we often get our reading material online today is not something we should worry over. The electronic and digital revolution of the last two decades has arguably shown the way forward for reading and for writing. Interconnectivity allows for the possibility of a reading experience that was barely imaginable before. Where traditional books had to make do with photographs and illustrations(插图), an e-book can provide readers with an unlimited number of links：to texts, pictures, and videos.

On the other hand, there is the danger of trivialization(碎片化).One Twitter group is offering its followers single-sentence-long“digests”of the great novels. War and Peace in a sentence? You must be joking. We should fear the fragmentation(碎片)of reading. There is the danger that the high-speed connectivity of the Internet will reduce our attention span(时间)—that we will be incapable of reading anything of length or which requires deep concentration.

In such a fast-changing world, in which reality seems to be remade each day, we need the ability to focus and understand what is happening to us. This has always been the function of literature and we should be careful not to let it disappear. Our society needs to be able to imagine the possibility of someone entirely in pace with modern technology but able to make sense of a dynamic, confusing world.

1.In Paragraph 2,we can learn 　　　　　　　 .

A. the disappearance of traditional books

B. the development of human civilization

D. the birth of pioneering e-books

2.According to the passage, the advantage of e-books is　　　　　　　 .

A. 1imited link

B. imaginative design

C. low cost

D. varied contents

3.How does the author feel towards single-sentence-long novels?

A. Doubtful　　 B. Worried

C. Shocked　　 D. Hopeful

4.What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Technology is an opportunity and a challenge for traditional reading.

B. Technology pushes the way forward for reading and writing.

C. Interconnectivity is a feature of new reading experience.

D. Technology offers a greater variety of reading practice.
