Many people in the U.S. really depend on their cars to get to work and school. In fact most American workers spend an hour driving to work each day. In order to drive in the U.S., you have to go to your local Department of Motor Vehicles first, and take a written test to get your learners permit. If you pass this test, you can practice driving so you can pass a road test and get your license. The Department of Motor Vehicles has free booklets you can get to study for your learners permit. You can also get the information online and even take a practice written exam. To prepare for the road test, you can have a friend teach you to drive or pay to take classes at a driving school. You cannot, however, practice driving by yourself. If you are caught driving with only a learners permit, you can get into trouble with the law.Once you get your drivers license in one state, you can use it to drive in all of the United States. Wherever you drive, you will see signs posted along the road showing the speed limit. These numbers are not a suggestion. Generally you can drive faster on a highway than on local streets. Local police use special equipment to discover your speed. If they discover you are speeding or driving over the speed limit, police can stop you and give you a ticket. You will have to pay a fine which may be more than $100. The lines painted on the road are not just to keep cars in their lanes. They send a message. For example, a double solid yellow line means that it is against the law to pass another car here.36 . During learning how to drive, you shouldnt_.Aread the booklets DMV providesBhave a friend teach youCtake classes at a driving schoolDdrive alone37 . The underlined word “it” refers to_.Ayour learners permitByour drivers licenseCthe lawDthe car38 . If you are caught driving over the speed limit, _.Ayour drivers license will be taken awayByou will be given a warningCyou will have to pay a fine $100 or moreDyou cannot drive your car anymore39 . Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?AMost Americans go to work in their cars every day.BIf you only have a learners permit, you cant drive it by yourself.CWhen you get your drivers license, you cant drive on a high way.DIf you drive your car in the double solid yellow line, you are against the law.40 .

A French Digital Kitchen has been developed at Newcastle University in the UK. It teaches students how to cook French food and speak French at the same time. For the first time, students can learn a language by the following cooking steps.All grammar and _ have been carefully chosen to make sure the users can understand French well. After learning for some time, the users can test themselves by doing a short test on the computer.The kitchen project was started by Professor Paul Seedhouse. He became interested in the idea after he visited another kind of talking kitchen. He said, “ The purpose of the French Digital Kitchen is to make learning a language more interesting and more educational.”How does the kitchen work? There is a computer in the kitchen. With this computer, the users can first choose a French recipe（食谱） that they want to follow. Using information in the computer, the kitchen starts to guide the users how to make a French dish. If you follow the instructions on the computer, it moves on to the next. If you go wrong, the program goes back and repeats the recipe or information. At any time, the users can also ask the kitchen to repeat the recipe or any information.The new kitchen can be used in school, universities and even peoples homes. The researchers will also be developing the European Digital Kitchen, for the next three years.46 .
