Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by

15、blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.35 There are more than 100 million cars in the United States. A normal car gets less than 15 miles from each gallon of gas. It travels about 10,000 miles each year. In that time, it uses about 650 gallons of gas. In all, autos use up some 70 bi

16、llion gallons of gas a year. That comes out to be four-and-a-half million barrels a day.The importance of saving gas, then, cannot be stressed too much. Lets say, for instance, that the fuel used by each car could be cut back just 15 percent. This could be done by making fewer trips each day. It cou

17、ld be done through better driving habits. If it were done, our nations use of fuel would fall by close to two-thirds of a million barrels per day.We can all help save gas. One way is to ride the buses. Some of us could walk to work. We could ride mopeds(机动脚踏两用车) or bikes. Another way is to share a r

18、ide. We could join carpools (合伙使用汽车). About one-third of all cars are used for going to and from work.Go shopping with a friend from time to time. If two people use a car instead of one, we all save. There would be fewer cars on the road. The savings on gas around the nation would come to more than

19、one half million barrels a day.Another way to save is by cutting our useless trips. Can you find one car trip per week that could be handled by telephone? Can you combine trips? If each car took one less 10-mile trip a week, we could save three-and-half billion gallons of gas a year. This comes to n

20、early 5 percent of the total passenger car demand for gas.The way people drive decides how much fuel they save. Careful drivers may get20 percent more miles per gallon than normal drivers. They could get 50 percent more miles per gallon than wasteful drivers. Careful drivers obey the 55-mile-per-hou

21、r speed limit. They get to their desired speed quickly and keep a steady pace.If just one gallon of gas were saved each week for each car in the country, we could all save about five-and-half billion gallons a year.36 To decrease the number of useless car trips, you can use the _.（A）bus service（B） s

22、ubway service（C） telephone（D）airplane 37 What is the main idea of the passage?（A）Americans need to save gas.（B） Gas prices continue to rise.（C） Small cars get good gas mileage.（D）Automobiles cause serious air pollution. 38 The author suggests that better driving habits _.（A）are required by law（B） wi

23、ll not cause any accidents（C） help to keep the car in good shape（D）help save gas 39 If more people shared a ride, there would be _.（A）fewer cars on the road（B） higher insurance rates（C） more highway accidents（D）more cars on the road 40 This article means to say that a careful driver travels about _.

42、ime he spent living with his grandmother when he was 15.“It allowed me to be a different person than I was with my parents.“ Lerner said.
