Some new rules on traffic came into effect on November 1 in Shenzhen. Some drivers say Shenzhen has become a terrible place for them. Others say that they will soon use up 12 points and lose their driver’s license(駕照), no matter how carefully they drive.

A new rule punishes three hundred yuan(US $32)on anyone who doesn’t use the turning light for at least 3 seconds before changing lines, making a turn or stopping the cars. Drivers say the rule is too strict because it’s impossible for them to count the number of seconds while driving.

The new rules increase some punishments. For example, if the driver doesn’t slow down before passing crossings, he will be fined 500 yuan while 300 yuan was enough in the old rules.

However, the punishment is reasonable and necessary for the city to improve traffic safety and reduce deaths and hurts. Shenzhen has been taking the lead in China to carry out strict traffic rules. It’s worth doing so because traffic accidents have largely dropped over the years.

In 2017. the number of deaths from traffic accidents in Shenzhen reduced to 346 from 416 in 2016. In 2018, the number further dropped to 277, for the first time in 10 years that the yearly traffic death had dropped below 300.

Drivers have shown respect for the new traffic rules – you can see most drivers now give way to people who are crossing the road. The first thing a driver should do when sitting behind the wheel is to think about the human lives that may be lost if he or she doesn’t drive carefully enough, rather than the punishments and points.

1.What are some drivers’ opinions on the new traffic rules according to the 1st paragraph?

A.They think the new rules are reasonable.

B.They think the new rules are necessary.

C.They think driving will be more exciting.

D.They think driving will be more difficult.

2.How much more should a driver pay than before if he doesn’t slow down before passing crossings?

A.32 USD. B.300 yuan. C.200 yuan. D.500 yuan.

3.What’s the writer’s advice to the drivers according to the last paragraph?

A.Drive carefully, or you will be punished.

B.Drive carefully, or you will lose points.

C.Drive carefully, or human lives might be lost.

D.Drive carefully, or driving license might be lost.

4.On which page of Shenzhen Daily may we most probably read this passage?

A.International. B.Local. C.Sports. D.Music.

完成表格。閱讀下面短文根據(jù)其內(nèi)容,完成表格中所缺的信息。

If you ever feel a little bit under the weather, the Internet will surely help with a large number of cute cat videos. Of course, cute little kitties might not be everyone's cup of tea, but not to worry, since there are so many other kinds of cute animals you could possibly want to brighten up your day. And sometimes all you need is just a little something behind that cute photo or video, therefore this time we are here to warm up your hearts with the cutest exciting facts the animal kingdom has to offer!

Cats don’t think of us as humans. Instead, they see us as other cats By nudging(蹭)you with their heads, they’re actually greeting you as they are greeting another cat in their family. This means that we’ re probably the ugliest, biggest, and clumsiest(笨拙的)cats they’ve ever seen to them but they accept you into their family and love you anyway.

When a baby elephant is born, other mothers in the social group will shout to celebrate it. Elephants stay in close "family" groups for their whole lives. The main members in AL groups are female elephants( the males often leave the group)。 So other female elephants often come out for new babies.

Your dog actually loves you, not just because you give them food and walks. Studies showed that levels of hormone(荷爾蒙)rose and heart rates fell in both humans and their dogs after interacting with each other. In other words, when you pet your dog, both of you produce more of the same hormone in your brain that makes you fall in love with people, and both of you feel pleased.

Hundreds of tree seedlings(幼苗)grow every year because squirrels easily forget where due University, gray squirrels bury their food, such as nuts, acorns(松子)all over place but often forget to dig them back up. Due to the poor memories of squirrels, those buried seeds grow into full-grown trees.

Are these facts interesting? As we all know, our world is colorful because of different creatures. There are many kinds of animals in the world, but not only the humans. We live in the same world, we should be friends. If there are no animals, human beings will be very lonely. By studying animals, we can know more about human and nature.

The1. of knowing about animals

? Cheer you up when you feel upset.

? Humans won't be lonely with animals.

? Have a better understanding of human and nature.
