And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momands series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Jonses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.56. Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they _. A. want to be as rich as their neighbors B. want others to know or to think that they are rich C. dont want others to know they are rich D. want to be happy57. It can be inferred (推断) from the story that rich people like to _. A. live outside New York City B. live in New York city C. live in apartments D. have many neighbors58. Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because “Jones” is _. A. an important name B. a popular name in the United States C. his neighbors name D. not a good name59. According to the writer, it is _ to keep up with the Joneses. A. correct B. interesting C. impossible D. good60. Whats the authors attitude to keeping up with the Joneses？ A. Negative B. Positive C. Objective D. SupportiveBAfter years of research and testing, the hybrid car was developed and put on the market. It s an interesting and exciting new improvement in today s world as we look for better ways to protect the quality of the air we breathe and conserve our natural resources.The quality of our air is affected by many different things. But one of the largest sources of air pollution is the burning of fossil fuels such as coal and gasoline which is used to power a car s engine. The EPA has set national standards to help control the level of harmful pollutants sent off into the air, and the automobile industry has acted by producing a hybrid car that uses less gas and therefore causes less pollution.A hybrid car is a combination of a regular car that runs on gasoline and an electric car that is battery powered. Some people tend to think that since the hybrid car is partially electric, you have to plug it in to charge it. But thats not how it works. The 144volt battery pack is actually recharged through the energy that is produced when the cars brakes are used. This is referred to as “regenerative braking”, because it generates electricity.Although the hybrid car still runs on gasoline most of the time, this helps it use less gas than a regular car. When the driver stops at a traffic light, the engine automatically shuts off to save fuel. Then, as soon as the driver puts the car in gear and touches the gas pedal, the engine starts back up.Have you ever ridden in a car with someone who ran out of gas? That probably wouldnt happen if you were riding in a hybrid car. It flashes a warning on its computer screen that says, “I am low on gas”. When it completely runs out, the warning reads, “YOU ARE NOW OUT OF GAS!” Then the electric power supply kicks in to let the driver travel a few more miles to a gas station.61. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. The hybrid car will be put on the market. B. Hybrid cars run faster than regular cars. C. When the hybrid car stops at a traffic light, the driver will get a warning. D. The burning of fossil fuels is one of the largest sources of air pollution.62. According to the passage, the word “hybrid” refers to _. A. a high-tech discovery B. energy saving C. a new invention D. a combination of two things63. “Regenerative breaking” is an important process of the hybrid car because _. A. it allows the car to come to a quick stop B. it gives the driver a smoother ride C. it produces energy to charge the battery D. it can control the speed of the car64. Which of the following is right about the EPA? A. They designed hybrid cars. B. They outlawed (宣布为不合法) the burning of fossil fuels. C. They set important guidelines that help control pollution. D. Their main purpose is to protect endangered plants and animals.65. Which of the following is the reason for developing hybrid cars? A. They use less gas than regular cars. B. They re safer to drive than most cars. C. Theyre more modern than other cars. D. They cost less than regular cars.CDear Seth,Youre only three years old, and at this point in your life you cant read, much less understand what Ill tell you in this letter. But Ive been thinking a lot about the life that you have ahead of you, about my life so far as I reflect on what Ive learned, and about my role as a dad in trying to prepare you for the trials(磨难) that youll face in the coming years.You wont be able to understand this letter today, but somebody, when youre ready, I hope you will find some wisdom and value in what I share with you.You are young, and life has not yet to show a cold face to you, to throw disappointments and loneliness and pain into your path. You have not been worn down yet by long hours of thankless work, by the slings and arrows of everyday life.For this, be thankful. You are at a wonderful time of life. You have many wonderful stages of life still to come, but they are not without their costs and perils.I hope to help you along your path by sharing some of the best of what Ive learned. As with any advice, take it with a grain of salt. What works for me might not work for you.Life Can Be CruelThere will be people in your life who wont be very nice. Theyll tease you because youre different, or for no good reason. They might try to bully you or hurt you.Theres not much you can do about these people except to learn to deal with them, and learn to choose friends who are kind to you, who actually care about you, who make you feel good about yourself. When you find friends like this, hold on to them, treasure them, spend time with them, be kind to them, love them.There will be times when you are met with disappointment instead of success. Life wont always turn out the way you want. This is just another thing youll have to learn to deal with. But instead of letting these things get you down, push on. Accept disappointment and learn to persevere, to pursue your dreams despite pitfalls. Learn to turn negatives into positives, and youll do much better in life.You will also face heartbreak and abandonment by those you love. I hope you dont have to face this too much, but it happens. Again, not much you can do but to heal, and to move on with your life. Let these pains become stepping stones to better things in life, and learn to use them to make you stronger.But Be Open to life AnywayYes, youll find cruelty and suffering in your journey through life, but dont let that close you to new things. Dont move back from life, dont hide or wall yourself off. Be open to new things, new experiences, new people.You might get your heart broken 10 times, but find the most wonderful woman the 11th time. If you shut yourself off from love, youll miss out on that woman, and the happiest times of your life.You might get teased and bullied and hurt by people you meet, and then after meeting dozens of jerks, find a true friend. If you close yourself off to new people, and dont open your heart to them, youll avoid pain, but also lose out on meeting some incredible people, who will be there during the toughest times of your life and create some of the best times of your life.You will fail many times but if you allow that to stop you from trying, you will miss out on the amazing feeling of success once you reach new heights with your accomplishments. Failure is a stepping stone to success.Life Isnt a CompetitionYou will meet many people who will try to do better than you, in school, in college, at work. Theyll try to have nicer cars, bigger houses, n
