　　A very rapid increase in the number of cars began almost immediately after they were invented to meet the need for the regular rapid transportation and convenience．The car is such a part of our everyday life and so much taken for granted nowadays that we rarely think twice when we get into it and get it started．The USA is even referred to as“a nation on wheels”．But how many of you have ever thought how the car is designed and operated?

　　In cars of normal design, the petrol system is made up of three main parts：storage tank, a pump and a carburetor．

　　The petrol tank is fitted at the back of the car where it is out of the way, yet easily filled at a gas station．Tanks are in various capacity but they usually hold enough petrol for 250－300 miles running．Because the tank is at the opposite end of the car from the carburetor, which is fitted high up on the engine, a pump is needed to draw the petrol from one to the other, so it is from the carburetor that the petrol is finally fed into the engine．Pumps can be of two kinds：electrically operated or mechanically driven from the engine．

　　Next time when you are driving a car, you may wonder what a great and magic invention the car is．

(1)

Choose one picture which shows the correct petrol system described in this passage．

[　　]

A．

B．

C．

D．

(2)

The passage tells the reason why ________．

[　　]

A．

there are different types of tanks in capacity

B．

the tank is designed at the back of the car

C．

the pump is mechanically driven from the engine

D．

the petrol is fed into the engine from the carburetor

(3)

It is necessary to use a pump to send petrol to carburetor because ________．

[　　]

A．

the engine needs supplying with a certain amount of petrol

B．

the pump can press the petrol to recycle

C．

the carburetor has difficulty in drawing petrol from the tank

D．

the tank isn't fitted in proper position

I finished my last work of the week and could hardly wait to get home, take off my nursing shoes, and relax.
As I _36_ my car, I saw one of my _37_ standing by the bus stop.

I didn’t know where she lived, but I was _40_ I would be able to find my way back.
We _41_ about our work as I drove and _42_ we knew it, we arrived at her house. I started driving back. _43_ looked familiar, but at first that didn’t _44_ me. But soon I _45_ something wrong. I recognized nothing. But I told myself to stay _46_.
I was _47_ neighborhoods, streets and even streetlights. I no longer knew where I was now. How could I be so stupid! I looked down at my _48_. It was now 2:30 a.m. My gas was slowly running out. I _49_ the car and turned off the engine. In total defeat, I put my head down on the wheel, _50_. Then I raised my head and saw a(n) _51_ down the road in front of me. I turned my headlights on. A car! I drove a little _52_, got out of my car and knocked on the window of that car. An elderly man _53_ rolled his window down.
I said that I didn’t know how to get back into town. In silence, he started driving. I ran back to my car and drove behind him. Finally I _54_ a familiar street. As I turned to head home, the car disappeared. Then I _55_ my driveway (車道) when the warning light for my gas tank (汽油箱) turned on.
Though so many years have passed, I still thank the old man from my deepest heart.

The year was 1932. Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a small single—engined aeroplane. At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter (高度表) failed and she didn't know how high she was flying. At night, and in a storm, a pilot is in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged (沖) into the sea.
Just before dawn, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed flames (火焰) coming from the engine. Would she be able to reach land? There was nothing to do except to keep going and to hope.
In the end, Amelia Earhart did reach Ireland, and for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in England and Europe. When she returned to the United States, she was honored by President Hoover at a special dinner in the White House. From that time on, Amelia Earhart was famous.
What was so important about her flight? Amelia Earhart was the first woman to fly the Atlantic Ocean alone, and she had set a record of fourteen hours and fifty—six minutes.
In the years that followed, Amelia Earhart made several flights across the United States, and on each occasion (時刻) she set a new record for flying time. Amelia Earhart made these flights to show that women had a place in aviation (航空) and that air travel was useful.

This morning, a Virgin Atantin 747 Jumbo Jet became the first commercial airplane to fly on biofuel. The short flight from London to Amsterdam used a blend of 20% babassu(棕櫚) oil mixed with 80% conventional jet fuel.
What was really exciting about the flight was the fact that the engine did not have to be altered in any way for the biofuel to work While this is a great initial step in trying to reduce CO2(carbon-dioxide)emissions(排放)from airplanes. there are a lot of hurdles (障礙)that still need to be overcome.
First and foremost, unlike the normal fuel used to run airplanes (known as Jet A),biofuel freezes at high altitudes. Also, Jet‘A’fuel burns consistently (at the same pace),which means it provides a safe and reliable fuel for long flights--engineers are not sure if biofuel will be able to do the same.
The biggest hurdle to a full biofuel switch is our ability to be able to grow enough crops that can be converted to biofuel. There are two concerns that scientists have in this matter – the first is that the land to grow the extra crops will come from clearing more of our forests and the second is that since it competes with what we eat, the price of food will go up.
However, Richard Branson of Virgin Airlines, envisions that if biofuel starts to replace oil on a greater basis, it will be manufactured from algae（藻類）produced in sewage treatment plants, not from food sources.
Birgin Airlines is not the only one trying to look for alternative fuel sources. Earlier this year, an Airbus A380 used another alternative fuel－a man-made mix of gas-to-liquid, in one of its four engines. The flight was tested by Rolls Royce (manufacturer of jet engines), in partnership with Shell (an oil company). Rolls Royce is also working with Air New Zealand on a similar project.
While a complete switch to alternative fuel may take years, it is very encouraging to see airlines, oil companies and airplane manufacturers all coming together to try to make it happen!
【小題1】．Why does Virgin Airlines try to replace normal fuel with biofuel?

A．To cut down the flight cost of the company.
B．To remove some hurdles for the biofuel to work.
C．To reduce CO2 emissions from airplanes.
D．To test plane engines on biofuel.
【小題2】．Which is NOT true for a full biofuel switch of airplanes?
A Biofuel cannot run for long flights.                  
B．Biofuel cannot work at high altitudes.
C．Man has not enough land to grow extra crops for biofuel. 
D．It’s not easy for sewage treatment plants to manufacture biofuel.
【小題3】．One of the hurdles to be overcome for a full biofuel switch is to          .
A．a(chǎn)lter the engine for airplanes
B．make biofuel burn consistently
C．open more land to grow more crops
D．develop sewage treatment plants
【小題4】．We can infer from the last paragraph that          .
A．there is a long way to go for a complete switch to alternative fuel
B．it won’t be long before alternative fuel comes into use
C．a(chǎn)irlines, oil companies and airplane manufacturers are reliable
D．a(chǎn)lternative fuel has a bright future
【小題5】．Which of the following can best serves as the title of this passage?
A．Biofuel-Alternative Fuel Sources.
B．The First Commercial Flight Powered by Biofuel.
C．How to Reduce CO2 Emissions from Airplanes.
D．Vigin Airlines Trying to Alter Fuel Sources.
