Many people in Beijing found that the traffic condition was very bad now. Liu Ming, a driver in Beijing, said that one day, his car stayed in one place for over three hours. In Beijing, traffic jams happen not only during holidays, but also on ordinary days. The Foreign Policy magazine in the United States put Beijing No.1 on its list of cities with the most severe (严峻的) traffic jams.
What is the problem
The roads in Beijing can hold 6.7 million cars at most. Beijing already has over 4.5 million cars, and that number is still growing. With so many cars on the road, it is impossible to have good traffic condition. The government has tried many different solutions!
One possible solution is to build more subways and encourage people to use them. But subways cost a lot to build. Another solution is to control the number of cars on the road. For example, cars in Beijing have to take one day off a week. Buying cars is limited. However, as the number of cars on the road grows, the traffic problems remain.
Traffic jams are a big problem in many countries. On some roads in the US and Canada, there is a kind of lane (车道) called “the car pool lane”. Only cars with more than two passengers can use that lane.
根据文章内容,判断句子正(T)、误(F)。
41. It’s impossible to have good traffic conditions in Beijing because there are so many cars.
42. The government of Beijing has done something to control the number of cars on the road.
43. Only the city of Beijing has traffic jams.

Then I realize that no one passed the exam at all. What had happened
“Very simple,” Mr. Jackson explained, “I had made up all that story about the wampus. There had never been any such animal, so the information in your notes was not correct. Do you expect to get high marks for incorrect answers ”
There was no need to say we were angry. What kind of test was this What kind of teacher was he
How could we believe he gave us so much information about an animal that had not been there at all How was it possible for us students to doubt what the teacher taught us
“The zeros on your papers will be recorded in your grade books,” he said. And he did it.
Through the experience. Mr. Jackson hoped that we would learn something. Teachers and the books are not always right. In fact, no one is. He told us not to let our mind go to sleep. Instead, we should keep thinking all the time and speak up if we think there are mistakes in our teacher’s words or in books.

One day in ancient Greece, King Hiero asked a crown (王冠) maker to make him a golden crown. (A)______ first, he was very happy with it.
“It’s a nice crown, isn’t it ” he asked his men. Later, however, he began to (B) suspect that it was not a real golden crown. “Is it made completely of gold ” he wanted to know. He sent (C) it to Archimedes (阿基米德) and asked him to find out the truth.
“This problem seems difficult to solve. What should I do ” thought Archimedes.
Archimedes was still thinking about this problem as he filled his bath with water. ① When he got into the bath, some water ran over.
“That’s it!” shouted Archimedes. “I know (D)______ to solve the king’s problem!”
Archimedes went straight to the palace to see the king. ② First, he weighed the crown and asked the king for some gold of the same weight.
Next, he put two pots into two big bowls and filled both pots with water. He put the gold into one pot. ③
Then he put the crown into the other pot. This time, even more water ran into the bowl.
“Look at this,” said Archimedes to King Hiero. “A crown made completely of gold displaces (排出) less water than a crown made of gold and another metal (金属). This crown displaced more water than gold of the same weight, so I’m certain that it’s not completely made of gold.”
“The crown maker tricked me, didn’t he What a bad man he is!” shouted King Hiero. He then sent the crown maker to prison (监狱).
