But while it is usually a fun time of year, there is a serious side to summer that you might not know about.The terrible heat, which can go above 40 in some cities, is very dangerous. There are lots of trees and dry grass in the areas far away that can easily catch fire. Even throwing a burning cigarette out of a car window can start a dangerous fire. That is why summer is also known as bushfire(丛林大火)season in Australia.In February there were more than 80 different bushfires burning at the same time in New South Wales, a southeastern state of Australia. The Guardian newspaper reported that 42 homes were burned to the ground because of these fires. These homes are not like Chinese ones. They are huge farms. Many Australian properties(房产) are larger than 1,000 sq km, while the biggest is more than 20,000 sq km, even larger than Beijing!Every family prepares for bushfire season and protects their property(财产). But sometimes the fires are too big and people have to move to safety.The hot weather also causes other problems. It was so hot in February that thousands of bats(蝙蝠) died from the heat. People can get sick if they stay outside for too long or they dont drink enough water. The heat can also cause power problems for homes and business.The Australian summer is enjoyable.

Luffy in One Piece is such an example.American comics make people excited with super powers, while Japanese manga comfort(安慰) people with moving stories. Natsumes Book of Friends is about a teenage boy. He can see spirits（精灵）. He is confused(困惑的) at first but later he makes friends with spirits.

Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping, but none of them are worried about the road ahead. Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on driver-less cars, which are currently(当前) in the testing stages. If the tests are successful, these electric, self-driven cars could be available very soon. But, how is it possible for a car to drive itself?Cars already have many features allowing them to take over for drivers in certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they detect(察觉) objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions, such as snow or slippery roads.Other features have also changed the way drivers react to some situations. Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driving car might be possible.The self-driven car may be the answer to lowering the number of deadly (致命的) accidents caused by careless drivers or dangerous conditions. However, there are still some people who do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example, doesnt believe these cars are safe. He thinks the possibility of the technology making a mistake will be too high.（1）What does the underlined phrase “take over for” in Paragraph 3 mean? A . guide the way forB . take the place ofC . work better thanD . make use of（2）Cars already have the following features EXCEPT _.

Possibilities of self-driven cars.21. （6.0分）阅读理解 Chinas second female astronaut, Wang Yaping, has given the countrys first-ever video lecture from space.
