问答题
Practice 3  Energy-saving vehicles were part of the Green Transportation Festival in the US in 2003. The vehicles shown were designed to reduce America’s dependence on oil and help the environment.  There are exhibits of cars and buses at the festivals. Most of them use little gas or use another kind of fuel such as natural gas. People are also urged to consider simpler ways of getting around, such as walking, biking and using public transportation systems.  The United States has less than five per cent of the world’s population, but uses about twenty-five per cent of the world’s oil. More than half of the nation’s oil is imported. Most of it goes to transportation.  Festival organizers said progress in technology was making it possible for Americans to reduce their dependence on oil. That is because the kinds of energy-saving vehicles are increasing. Efforts to reduce oil imports in the United States would also have important environmental benefits. The burning of oil as fuel is responsible for gases blamed for climate change. When gasoline is burned in cars, it also pollutes the air. This leads to many health problems.

第8题:

B

Foreign drivers will have a pay on-the-spot fines of up to £900 for breaking the traffic law to be carried our next month.

If they do not have enough cash or a working credit card, their vehicles will clamped(扣留)until they pay and they will face an additional fee of &80 for getting back their vehicles .

The law will also apply to British citizens ,The fines will be dcgcribed officially as “deposits” when the traffic law take effect ,takes effect ,because the money would be returned if the driver went to court and was found not guilty ,In practice, very few foreign drives are likely to return to Britain to deal with their eases.

Foreign drivers are rarely charged because police cannot take action against them if they fail to appear in court, Instead, officers often merely give warnings.

Three million foreign-registered vehicles enter Britain each year . Polish vehicles s make up 36 percent, French vehicles 10 percent and German vehicles 9 percent.

Foreign vehicles are 30 percent more likely tope in a crash than British-registered vehicles .The number of crashes caused by foreign vehicles rose by 47 percent between 2003 and 2008 .there were almost 400 deaths and serious injuries and 3,000 slight injuries from accidents caused by foreign vehicles in 2008.

The new law is partly intended to settle the problem of foreign lorry drivers ignoring limits on weight and hours at the wheel .Foreign lorries are throe times more likely to be in a crash than British Lorries. Recent spot checks found that three quarters of Lorries that failed safety teats were registered overseas.

The standard deposit for a careless driving offence —such as driving too close to the vehicle in front or reading a map at the wheel—will be £300. Deposits for speeding offences and using mobile phones will be £60. Foreign drivers will not get points as punishment added to their licenses, while British drivers will.
