Choose the best answer.(阅读短文，选择最恰当的答案) Driving in the U.S. can be difficult to understand not just because of all the rules and laws that drivers must follow, but also because of driving customs. Many people in the U.S. are really dependent 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(一旦) you get your drivers license in one state, you can use it 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.69. In order to learn driving in the United States, you need_. A.to have your own car B.to get a learners permit C.to have basic knowledge of a car D.to get proof of car insurance70.

A.your learners permit B.your drivers license C.the law D.the car72. If you are caught driving over the speed limit, _. A.your drivers license will be taken away B.you will be given a warning C.you will have to pay a fine$100 or more D.you cannot drive your car anymore73. Which of the following is Not True according to the passage? A. Most Americans go to work in their cars every day. B. If you only have a learners permit, you cant drive it by yourself. C. When you get your drivers license, you cant drive on a high way. D. If you drive your car in the double solid yellow line, you are against the law.74. The best title of the passage may be “_”. A.

In fact some parents are not sending their students to school at all. Instead they are choosing to teach their children at home. This is called homeschooling. Parents educate children individually at home instead of sending them off to be formally educated in public or private schools. In the U.S. Only about three percent of children are homeschooled.There are many reasons why some parents choose to homeschool. One reason is that some parents do not feel their children are safe in school because of bullying(恃强凌弱). Others parents want their childs education to be based on their religion or moral beliefs. Yet other parents feel like the education in school is not good enough. Homeschooling is also seen as a choice for families that live in rural areas, and families that travel, like actors.There are many different ways to homeschool, and homeschooling allows parents to customize(订制) lessons based on their childrens needs. Families can buy textbooks to use or write their own materials. Some parents who follow a philosophy(信条) called unschooling, which allows a child to determine when, and how they want to learn based on their natural curiosity(好奇心). Some worry that homeschooling means students wont have opportunities to socialize. To answer this worry, some families have set up cooperatives, where a group of homeschooled students will learn and play together and take part in activities that would normally happen in school like field trips and dance parties.Being homeschooled doesnt mean a student cannot go to college.
