Hybrid cars(混合动力车) are cars that run on petrol(汽油) and electricity. They have a small standard petrol engine(引擎) and a battery electric motor to provide electric power.
There are some differences between different models of hybrid cars, but the general principle is that the car runs on petrol, and the electric motor kicks in when additional power is required, for example, when going uphill. In some hybrid cars the petrol engine turns itself off when not needed, for example when the car has stopped at traffic lights, keeping only the electric engine running.
Traditional cars have large engines to cope with driving uphill. Most of the time, the high engine capacity is not needed, but the engine continues burning up fuel(燃料). Hybrid cars have much smaller petrol engines, improved by electric motors when needed, so they use less energy. Hybrid cars are also lighter and aerodynamically(空气动力学地) designed for greater fuel efficiency.
Another way that fuel consumption is cut by a system of “regenerative braking(刹车)”. The electric motor is used to slow down the car, rather than traditional brakes. The energy produced by slowing the car is changed into electrical power, which is automatically stored in the battery. In effect, the battery recharges when you brake. In traditional cars the energy produced when braking is wasted.
Car makers and engineers have been experiencing with electric and hybrid cars since the late 19th century. In 1898 Ferdinand Porsche built an experimental hybrid car. The first mass-produced hybrid car, the Toyota Prius, came out in Japan at the end of 1997. However, hybrid cars became available in the USA only in 1999, when the Honda Insight went on sale.
As they use less fuel, hybrid cars are cheaper to run. There are also many voices in some places to encourage people to buy them. In some countries, hybrid car owners pay a lower rate of tax, and don’t have to pay on certain roads. In some cities around the world, hybrid cars are allowed to park for free.
1.What can we learn from paragraph 2
A. Hybrid cars don’t need petrol any more.
B. The petrol engine and the electric motor work all the way.
C. Hybrid cars mainly depend on electrical power to run.
D. Some hybrid car petrol engines will stop when unnecessary.
2.Which is NOT the reason why hybrid cars use less energy
A. Smaller petrol engines. B. Scientific design.
C. Traditional brakes D. Energy storage.
3.What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Hybrid cars are cheaper to buy.
B. Hybrid cars can free their owners from tax.
C. Hybrid cars are free to park anywhere in the city.
D. Hybrid cars will gain more popularity.
4.What’s the writers purpose of writing the passage
A. To advertise hybrid cars to encourage people to buy.
B. To show people a kind of energy-saving cars.
C. To compare traditional cars and hybrid cars
D. To introduce the development of hybrid cars.

It’s rare to see a team earn 11 straight wins (连胜) in a tournament (锦标赛). However, the Chinese Women’s volleyball team has done it!
On Sept 29, China took the Women’s Volleyball World Cup Trophy (奖杯) in Japan. The team didn’t lose any of its games during the tournament. It was also the team’s 10th world title (冠军).
“The trophy is the best gift to celebrate the 70th birthday of New China,” People’s Daily said in an article.
The Chinese Women’s volleyball team has long been the pride of Chinese athletics. In the 1980s, the team won five world titles in a row (连续), which raised people’s confidence at the time. Since then its fighting spirit has encouraged generations (一代代) of people, both within the team and across the country.
Working hard and never giving up were the keys to the team’s success. The World Cup was played in several different cities and the team didn’t have much time to train. The girls had to squeeze in (挤出) training time when they could. On Sept 25, for example, they arrived in Osaka at 2:30 pm and started training only an hour later.
According to head coach Lang Ping. Many of the team’s members kept on playing even after being hurt.
With their latest win, the girls are ready to prepare for next year’s Tokyo Olympics.
