The town I live in is about to put cameras at all traffic lights to catch people who run red lights.It 36 me of how many people I’ve seen who take the yellow light as a 37 to go faster.I also can’t understand why people don’t move when the traffic light has turned green.Above all, there are those 38 situations in which someone doesn’t even 39 that the light turns red, and just keeps going.That is why so many 40 happen! All these situations make me 41__ the purpose of traffic lights.
42 , it’s even more frightening to imagine letting people make their own decisions at __43 crossroads.Do the biggest cars get to go first? Who decides who goes next? So I guess I do like the idea of a system to 44 traffic.And I’ll do my best to 45 the traffic rules: to go, to be cautious, and to stop when I’m 46 to.
It occurs to me that my 47 have done much the same for me 48 teaching me how to live.They have given me many 49 lights: to get along well with others, to listen and talk to them, to help others, and to 50 with joy and purpose.They have also given me some red lights 51 my life goes astray(誤入歧途): not to be greedy, to keep my temper, and to control my desires.And there 52 have been some yellow caution lights: to watch how much I drink, to keep control of my behavior, and to 53 school regularly and work hard.
If I obey these rules, my life will be as 54 as it can be.Just as I’m wise to pay attention to the traffic lights when I’m walking across the street, I’m wise to pay attention to the“ 55__ signals” given to me by my parents.

The other day at the supermarket, I saw a naughty child of about six crying loudly, falling to the floor and refusing to move. All the while the troubled mother was trying to persuade him to behave well but failed. A little smack (摑打) on his bottom would have done the job, I thought.
Teenagers also cause discipline problems. As a teacher I had a 16-year-old student who had fallen in love with a waiter at a fast-food restaurant. In fact, she had left home to stay with him. So we decided to put her in the school hostel. She refused. When she heard her mother begging her to stay in the hostel she turned round and said: “Why don’t you stay in the hostel if you like it so much?”
My palms were itching to slap her for being so rude but the poor mother continued to cajole her, hoping that gentle persuasion would work wonders. It did not. The last I heard, she had run away from home again.
The list goes on and on. Could it be that today’s parents are softer and believe that they must not rod (棍棒懲罰) their children for fear of the bad result? Or do they actually believe that the children will get rid of the bad habits and behave well naturally as they grow older? I beg to disagree. I believe it is the parents’ duty to discipline the children even at a young age.
My children who are now adults will prove the fact that I used the rod when I thought it necessary. Later when they went abroad, they related to their British university friends on how they were disciplined. Their friends abroad were filled with horror and told my daughter that I could be charged for child abuse (虐待). However, my daughter paid me the greatest compliment when she told them that she would not be where she was today if not for my strict discipline.
1. According to the passage, the author would probably _______.
A. beat the children every day B. punish the children when necessary
C. 1eave the children as they are D. treat the children in a softer way
2.The underlined word “to cajole” (in Paragraph 3) probably means _______.
A. to persuade B. to scold C. to forgive D. to punish
3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The naughty boy’s mother hit him on the bottom at last.
B. The teenager’s mother lived together with her daughter in the school then.
C. The author was charged for child abuse by her daughter’s friends abroad.
D. The author’s daughter was very thankful for her parent’s strict discipline.
4. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?
A. Respect Parents B. Spoil Kids C. Value Discipline D. Protect Kids

Vauban We know cars are terrible polluters, but would you give yours up? Vauban, a community in southwestem Germany, did just that, and its 5,000 citizens are doing fine. Most streets are free of vehicles, and there are generous green spaces and good public-transport links, including fast buses and bicycle paths. When,, people must drive, they can turn to car-sharing clubs. All the citizens had the chance to plan their own city," says Andreas Delleke, an energy expert, "and it's just how we wanted it to be. "

Israel Company Is it possible that annoying rash hour traffic could become a source of renewable energy? Israel's Technion Institute of Technology claims that if we placed special generators ( 發(fā)電機 ) under roads, railways, and runways -- we could harvest enough energy to mass-produce electricity. A trial process has been used on a smaller scale, in dance clubs for instance, where the pounding feet of dancers light up the floor. "We can produce electricity anywhere there is a busy road using energy that normally goes to waste," said Uri Amit, chairman of Israel's Technion . Institute Of Technology. |

Modern Manners
Philip Howard answers your questions on contemporary etiquette (禮儀)
Philip Howard,
When my friend and I (two ladies of a certain age) go out to have a meal, she always leaves an extremely large tip. At times, the tip will equal the amount of one of the main dishes—sometimes it comes to about 30 per cent of the bill. I feel 15—20 per cent is adequate for services offered and depending on the type of restaurant. At a cafe I would like to leave 15 per cent or a bit more depending on the service and etc. A larger tip would be appropriate if we are in a big city or a nicer place. My friend says “Well, I am sure they are not driving a Mercedes (奔馳汽車).” Well, neither am I, and how does she know? Who is correct and how can I make changes? I might add I do truly feel tipping should be based on good service, and also if you frequent a place and know the staff a larger tip is OK. I would never hesitate to tip a waitperson. I always leave to the higher side.
Yours,
Barbara Bade
Barbara Bade,
Americans are more generous tippers than the British. I suspect that 10 per cent for a tip is about normal in the UK. Tipping is a strange survival in our age of supposed equality and minimum wages. Your friend has a generous nature and deep purse. I do not see why you cannot let her tip whatever she wants, and do your own thing. I agree that a tip should be a reward for good service and general good feeling. If the service is rotten and the meal a disaster, we should withhold a tip and explain why we are doing so. Few of us have the chutzpah (厚顏) to do this. Sensible restaurants have a box for tips, so that they are shared out among the staff, including those in the kitchens whom we do not see. (I trust that the management does not receive the money as extra profit.) I look forward to the day when waiters and other servants are paid a good enough living wage, so that they do not have to depend on the generosity of strangers to survive. To wait at table is just as honorable a way to earn a living in this wicked world. If you are pleased with the meal and cheerful service, you should tip as handsomely as your purse affords. I don’t suppose that your waiter / waitress is driving a Mercedes, even in the States.
Yours,
Philip Howard
