Overhead bridges are found in many parts of Beijing, especially in places where traffic is very heavy and crossing the road is dangerous. The purpose of these bridges is to enable pedestrians to cross roads safely. Overhead bridges are used to very much the same way as zebra crossings. They are more efficient although less convenient because people have to climb up a long flight of steps. This is inconvenient especially to older people. When pedestrians use an overhead bridge, they do not hold up traffic. However, when they cross a busy road using a zebra crossing, traffic is held up. This is why the government has built many overhead bridges to help pedestrians and to keep traffic moving at the same time. The government of Beijing has spent a large amount of money on building these bridges. For their own safety, pedestrians should be encouraged to use them instead of risking their lives by dashing across the road. Old people, however , may find it a little difficult climbing up and down the steps, but it is still much safer than walking across the road with all the danger of moving traffic. Overhead bridges serve a very useful purpose. Pedestrians, both old and young, should make it a habit to use them. This will prevent unnecessary accidents and loss of life. 1. What is the advantage of overhead bridges mentioned in this passage? A.Taller trucks can pass under them. B. Pedestrians can climb up and have a view of the city. C.They are safer for pedestrians and can keep traffic moving at the same time. D.They are easier and more convenient for the pedestrians. 2. Why were overhead bridges built in Beijing? A. Because they prevent traffic from being held up. B. Because they provide an easy way for the drivers to cross the road. C. Because they save money for the government. D. Because they save time for the pedestrians. 3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? A. Overhead bridges are found in every part of Beijing. B. Overhead bridges are only found in the centre of Beijing. C. Overhead bridges are found in many parts of big cities in China. D. Overhead bridges are found in places where traffic is heavy. 4. The underlined words a zebra crossing probably mean ________. A. a safe place across a road for pedestrians to walk across the road B. a wild animal from Africa that looks like a horse with broad dark brown and white stripes on its body C. a safe place across a road for zebras to walk across the road D. a safe place across a road for children to play a game 5. What is the writer.s attitude towards overhead bridges? A. It is inconvenient to older people to walk across the road. B. It is much safer for pedestrians though climbing up and down the steps may be a little difficult. C. An overhead bridge is more beautiful than a zebra crossing. D. To build overhead bridges is the business of the government.
Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today, nearly two—thirds of the world.s population live within 80 kilometers of the sea coast. In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive . Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many of man.s needs. The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man.s technology is impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined. Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practised in the past mainly by Oriental people. Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy. Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible. The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2000 the problems that prevent us from exploiting fully the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved. 1. The major things that the sea offers man are ______. A. fish and oil B. minerals and oil C. warm temperature and ocean currents D. the food, energy sources, and minerals 2. The sea serves the needs of man because ______. A. in provides man with food B. it offers oil to man C. it supplies man with minerals D. all of the above 3. We can conclude from this passage that ______. A. the sea resources have largely been used up B. the sea, in the broad sense, has not yet been developed C. the problems that prevent us from using the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea have already been solved. D. by the year 2000 , the technology will be good enough to exploit all the sea resources 4. The underlined words Oriental people in the fourth paragraph probably mean ______. A. the people in Asia B. African people C. European people D. American people 5. The best title for this passage is ______. A. Sea Harvest B. Sea Food C. Technology for Exploiting the Sea D. Man and the Sea
