Theres only one place, and thats Hollywood, in California. The scenes you see from the tourist train are film sets（布景） in the Universal Studios, one of the oldest and largest movie companies(公司) in the USA.A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood, the films and the stars. But they are only memories. Hollywood isnt quite the same as it used to be. Costs have gone up and confidence has gone down. Movie-makers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas. Instead, they repeat old ones.The film industry is changing fast. Teenagers still go out to the movies. The theatre is a good place to meet friends away from home. But older people mostly stay home to watch series, like Dynasty have become as important to Hollywood as expensive movies. These “soap opera”, as they are called, show rich, powerful families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes. But the actors and actresses are nearly all middle-aged, like many of the people who watch them.Though it is soap operas that are keeping the film-makers of Hollywood in Business, big films are still being made in America. But more and more of them are made outside Hollywood. New York is the most important new center, but there are many others as well. Movie-makers have realized that they dont need Hollywood any more. Modern cameras and real houses instead of expensively made copies in a studio. Other states, especially Florida and Texas, are working hard to take the film business away from California. They are offering better working conditions and lower cost.But Hollywood is fighting back.

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 driverless cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has gotten a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.These cars are now still in the testing stages. But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driven cars could be put into use very soon.The cars already have many features（特点）allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions.Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driven car might be possible.The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car may be able to prevent these. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example, doesnt believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies can also be mistakes.（1）The main purpose of the first paragraph is to _A . make readers wonder about self-driven cars.B . get readers to pay attention to road safety.C . tell readers to keep away from heavy traffic.D . tell readers what self-driven cars look like.（2）From the passage, we know that the testing self-driven cars can already _ A . avoid being hit by other vehicles on roads.B . control the speed in dangerous situations.C . turn around when getting near objects.D . pick up their owners.（3）What might make the self-driven cars run safely according to the passage?a. e-reading b. wireless signals c. cameras d. GPSA . a, b, cB . a, b, dC . b, c, dD . a, c, d（4）What is Whit Drakes attitude toward the safety of the self-driven cars? A . He has doubt about it.B . He believes it completely.C .
