The United States is full of ears. There are still many families without cars, but some families have two or even more. Cars are a necessary part of life.

Cars are used for business. They are driven to offrices and factories by workers. Salesmen(推銷員) have to drive in order to (為了) carry their products (產(chǎn)品).Farmers have to drive into the city in order to get things.

In some cities school buses are used only when children live far from the school. When the children are too young to walk so far, their mothers take turns at driving them to school. This form is called a car pool. Men also form car pools, with three or four men taking turns at driving to the factory or the office.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷正(T)誤(F)。
Happiness is for everyone. You don’t need to envy(羨慕,妒忌)those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country road in their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents will always take good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct(糾正)it, and when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice these things, you can find that happiness is always around you.
【小題1】Happiness is always around rich people.
【小題2】People are happy because they can walk on the country road in their free time.
【小題3】When you get success, people around you will help you correct it.
【小題4】When you are in trouble, your friends will help you. We can say “You are happy.”
【小題5】You can find our happiness everywhere if you notice good things.

Cars are lots of fun, but they could also be dangerous. We have to be careful when we drive them or ride in them.
It’s always a good idea to put on your seat belt (安全帶) when you’re in a car. Why? Think about this example: You put an egg on a skateboard and give it a push. If the skateboard hits a stone, it will stop, but the egg won’t. It will fly through the air, hit the ground and break.
Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a stone, the egg won’t go flying; it will stay safely on the skateboard.
Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts in 1849.
Air bags are also very important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn’t enough. If the car is going really fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear them. Most new cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something, its air bags will come out quickly in less than one second to keep the people inside safe.
【小題1】The passage mainly tells us ______.

A.two important ways to keep safe in cars

A.tell us that eggs are easy to break
B.show how to wear a seat belt
C.show why it’s important to wear a seat belt in a car

【小題4】 Air bags are important for cars because ______.
A.they are made of plastic
B.they can also help us to keep safe in a car
C.they can keep cars running slowly
