The bus runs on electricity and solar power. It can travel up to 60 km every hour. Its creator, Song Youzhou, says a lot of traffic jams (堵塞) will be reduced.The Super Bus can do the work of 40 buses. In that way, it can save 860 tons of fuel (燃料) every year, according to Song.“To build a Super Bus and its track costs less than building subways.

That is to say we must treasure every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.There is an old English saying: “Gain time, gain life.” 37 Time is something that we cant see or touch, but we can feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeably. We always say “Time is money”, but time is even more precious(珍贵的)than money, because when money is spent , we can earn it back. 38 So, some of us even say time is priceless(无价的).We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should try our best to work hard in order to create a great future of our own. 39 We should do everything before us as soon as possible. And never put off what can be done today till tomorrow.As we all know , “Time and tide wait for no man.” 40 So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be brighter.

The programme works because everyones eyes are 11 . So in the future you wont have to remember a group of numbers when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. Youll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell you who you are.The eye-recognition(眼睛识别) programme has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon it will take the place of all other ways of 12 out who people are. However, scientists are working on other systems. Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or 13 your smell. We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes dont change as you get older, and dont get 14 like hands or fingers. And twins eyes are not the same. So the eye-recognition programme can be up to 94 percent correct. In Britain, it was found that 91 percent of the people who had 15 it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.In the future your computer will be looking you in the eyes. So smile!11._ 12._ 13._ 14._ 15._.书面表达。(10分)根据提示,写一篇80词左右的短文。汽车是世界上最重要的运输工具之一，它的发明极大地影响了人们的生活。过去人们常常靠马、骆驼等动物来旅行或运送货物。汽车不仅舒适快捷，同时还可运送大量的人员和货物。汽车的发明还为人们提供了大量的就业机会。生词提示: 汽车automobile，运输transportation，货物goods，大量large quantities of听 力 材 料Unit 4 Topic 2.听对话，选择正确图片。每段对话读一遍。1.W: When was the digital camera invented?M: It was invented in 1975.2.W: Whats this in English?M: Its a toothbrush.
