单选题 Road Trip Vacations It's summer. In the United States, it's the season of swimming pools, barbeques, camping and road trips. Road trip vacations where the car journey is part of the fun are especially popular with college students, who like to explore the country on wheels. These budget trips are ideal for students who often have plenty of free time but little money. "Ever since I went to college, I've been traveling around a lot, exploring the country," said Austin Hawkins, a 19-year-old college student from New York. This summer, Hawkins and his friends have spent weekends traveling in New England. "The best part about car trips", said Hawkins, "is that you can be spontaneous. On a road trip, if you get interested in things you see along the way you can stop and explore." Matt Roberts, a 20-year-old student from Ohio who drove to Montreal, Canada, agrees. "With road trips you don't have to plan in advance, you can just get into a car and drive." Even with high gas prices, driving with friends is cheaper than flying. Roberts paid about 40 dollars for gas, but a round trip plane ticket would have cost nearly 400 dollars. Driving trips first became popular in the 1920s. Newly paved roads and improved cars made it possible to travel longer distances. Motels started appearing outside cities. By the 1950s, car ownership became the norm. Construction of the U. S. interstate highway system began in 1956 and motel and restaurant chains popped up everywhere making long distance trips easier. Today, the U.S. has the highest car ownership rate in the world. Only 8 percent of American homes have no car, according to the most recent U. S. census. Though many college students don't own a car, most have access to one. On many of Hawkins' trips, they used a borrowed van. Hawkins' most memorable road trip took place over spring break. He and two friends drove from New York to New Orleans to volunteer, helping rebuild the city after Hurricane Katrina hit it last July. They crossed the country in two days and slept in their car in church parking lots. Roberts' road trip to Canada last winter was even more eventful. Upon arriving in Montreal, they were lost in a blizzard and shivering in the —25~cold. To find their hotel, they turned on a laptop and drove around in circles until they found a spot with wireless Internet coverage. "I know we should have planned better, but we're young. Now, when I see those guys I always say: 'Remember when we were lost in the snow storm!' I'll never forget that."

单选题{{B}}第三篇{{/B}} The air is polluted. The earth is poisoned. Water is unsafe to drink and garbage is burying the civilization that produced it. Our environment is being polluted faster than nature and man's efforts can prevent it, Time is bringing us more people, and more people will bring us more industry. More people and more industry will bring us more motorcars, larger cities, and the growing use of man-made materials. This is happening not only in advanced societies but also among the developing nations as they become industrialized. Now many scientists are worrying about the possibility of world pollution. Some experts declare that the balance of nature is being so upset that the very survival of human beings in danger. What can solve this problem? The fact is that pollution is caused by man--by his greed and his modern way of life. We make "increasing industrialization(工业化)" our chief aim. For its sake we are willing to sacrifice everything: clean air, pure water, good food, our health, and the future of our children. There is a constant flow of people from the country into the cities, eager for the benefits of modern society. But as our technological achievements have grown in the last twenty years, so in that time pollution has became a serious problem. Isn't it the time we should stop and ask ourselves where we are going--and why? It reminds one of the stories about the airline pilot who told his passengers over the loud speakers: "I've some good news and some bad news. The good new is that we're making rapid progress at 530 miles per hour. The bad news is that we're lost and don't know where we're going." The sad fact is that this becomes a true story when applied to our modern society.
