5 Secrets of Web Travel Sites
Booking a trip on an online travel site is convenient, but comes with its own set of problems.
1. They know who’s on a Mac and who’s on a PC and who’s going
to spend more.
Last year, US travel research company Orbitz tracked people’s online activities to test out whether Mac users spend more on travel than PC users. On average, Mac users lay out US$20-30 more per night on hotels and go for more stars, according to the Wall Street Journal. As a result, online travel sites show these users more expensive travel options first. To avoid inadvertently paying more, sort results by price.
2. Their software doesn’t always hook up to the hotel’s system.
A guaranteed reservation is almost impossible to come by anywhere – but the risk of your flight or hotel being overbooked increases with third-party providers. The middle-man’s software isn’t immune to system errors, so always call the hotel or airline to make sure your booking was processed.
3. Don’t be fooled by packages: Often, they’re low-end items grouped together.
Ever notice how travel sites recommend a hotel, a rental car, and tour package all in one click? These deals usually feature travel that no one wants, like flights with multiple layovers. Check the fine print.
4. You could miss out on loyalty points.
Third-party providers can get between you and frequent flyer miles or points. Many hotel loyalty programmes don’t recognize external sites, others award only minimum points and exclude special offers, like double points on hotel stays.
5. Once your trip is purchased, you’re on your own.
An online travel agency can’t provide assistance the same way an agent can if a flight is cancelled or a room is substandard. Basically, when you arrive at the airport or hotel, you’re just another client who booked at the lowest rate.
56. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Third-party providers can ensure your reservation.
B. Mac users are likely to spend more money than PC users.
C. An online travel agency functions the same as an agent.
D. Packages usually provide travelers with satisfactory programmes.
57. What’s the purpose of the passage?
A. To encourage readers to book a trip on an online travel site.
B. To make an advertisement about several travel sites online.
C. To convince readers not to book a trip on an online travel site.
D. To warn readers of some problems with booking trips online.
B
I tried not to be biased, but I had my doubts about hiring Stevie. His social worker assured me that he would be a good, reliable busboy. But I had never had a mentally handicapped employee. He was short, a little fat, with the smooth facial features and thick-togued speech of Down’s Syndrome（唐氏综合症）. I thought most of my customers would be uncomfortable around Stevie, so I closely watched him for the first few weeks.
I shouldn’t have worried. After the first week, Stevie had my staff wrapped around his stubby little finger, and within a month my regular trucker customers had adopted him as their official truck stop mascot. After that, I really didn"t care what the rest of the customers thought of him. He was like a 21-year-old in blue jeans and Nikes, eager to laugh and eager to please, but fierce in his attention to his duties. Every salt and pepper shaker was exactly in its place, not a bread crumb or coffee spill was visible when Stevie got done with the table. Our only problem was persuading him to wait to clean a table until after the customers were finished.
Over time, we learned that he lived with his mother, a widow who was disabled. Money was tight, and what I paid him was probably the difference between them being able to live together and Stevie being sent to a group home.
That’s why the restaurant was a gloomy place that morning last August, the first morning in three years that Stevie missed work. He was at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester getting a heart surgery. His social worker said that people with Downs Syndrome often had heart problems at an early age and there was a good chance he would come through the surgery in good shape and be back at work in a few months.
A ripple of excitement ran through the staff later that morning when word came that he was out of surgery, in recovery, and doing fine. Frannie, my head waitress, did a little dance when she heard the good news. Belle Ringer, one of our regular trucker customers, stared at her and asked, “Okay, Frannie, what was that all about?”
"We just got word that Stevie is out of surgery and going to be okay."
"I was wondering where he was. I had a new joke to tell him. What was the surgery about?"
Frannie quickly told Belle Ringer and the other two drivers sitting at his booth about Stevie"s surgery, then sighed: "Yeah, I"m glad he is going to be OK," she said. "But I don"t know how he and his Mom are going to handle all the bills. From what I hear, they"re barely getting by as it is."
Belle Ringer nodded thoughtfully, and Frannie hurried off to wait on the rest of her tables.
After the morning rush, Frannie walked into my office. She had a couple of paper napkins in her hand.
"What"s up?" I asked.
“I cleared off that table where Belle Ringer and his friends were sitting after they left, and I found this. This was folded and tucked under a coffee cup."
She handed the napkin to me, and three $20 bills fell onto my desk when I opened it. On the outside, in big, bold letters, was printed "Something For Stevie".
That was three months ago. Today is New Year’s day , the first day Stevie is supposed to be back to work. His placement worker said he had been counting the days until the doctor said he could work, I arranged to have his mother bring him to work, met them in the parking lot and invited them both to celebrate his day back. I took him and his mother by their arms. “To celebrate you coming back, breakfast for you and your mother is on me.”
I led them toward a large corner booth. I could feel and hear truck customers and the rest of the staff following behind as we marched through the dining room. We stopped in front of the big table. Its surface was covered with coffee cups and dinner plates, all sitting slightly on dozens of folded paper napkins.
"First thing you have to do, Stevie, is clean up this mess," I said.
Stevie looked at me, and then pulled out one of the napkins. It had "Something for Stevie" printed on the outside. As he picked it up, two $10 bills fell onto the table. Stevie stared at the money, then at all the napkins peeking from beneath the tableware, each with his name printed on it.
I turned to his mother. “There"s more than $10,000 in cash and checks on that table, all from truckers and trucking companies that heard about your problems. Happy Thanksgiving!”
While everybody else was busy shaking hands and hugging each other, Stevie, with a big, big smile on his face, was busy clearing all the cups and dishes from the table.
58. Why did the author have doubts about hiring Stevie?
A. Because Stevie was not that reliable.
B. Because Stevie was mentally disabled
C. Because Stevie was too short and fat.
D. Because Stevie was bad-tempered
59. By saying the underlined sentence in Para 3, the author meant that the money she paid Stevie____
A. could help Stevie out of the trouble
B. couldn’t thoroughly solve Stevie’s problem
C. could make a great difference to Stevie’s life
D. could send Stevie to a group home
60. Why did Frannie sigh after she got word that Stevie would be OK?
A. She was worried that the owner would fire Stevie.
B. She was worried about Stevie’s health.
C. She was worried about Stevie’s finance problem.
D. She was worried that no one would help Stevie.
61. Stevie was popular among the staff and customers in the restaurant because of____.
A. his special appearance.
B. his hard work and optimism.
C. his funny speeches and actions.
D. his kind-hearted behaviour.
C
Nelle Harper Lee? better known by her pen name Harper Lee, was an American novelist widely known for To Kill a Mockingbird, published in 1960. Immediately successful, it won the 1961 Pulitzer Prize and has become a classic of modem American literature. In 1991 an organization conducted a survey that made readers identify books that had “made a difference” in their lives. The result? Lee's book trailed only The Bible. Alongside the works of Shakespeare and Twain, this novel remains one of the most widely taught books nationwide, reaching about 70% of American public schools. What makes it such a typical read for young people?
English class is a place where young Americans come to know themselves. In the folds of dusty books, students can make contact with humanity beyond the shallow small talk of the school hallways. Disturbed by hormones (荷尔蒙）and anxiety, teenagers get through school with confusion and frustration. Literature is a safety valve (安全阀）一 it promises relief, a place to figure out one's problems and get to know oneself better.
The novel particularly distinguishes itself in this aspect. It speaks in a child's voice without treating its readership as children. Some critics have called it an “impossible” achievement, a children's book penned by a well-educated adult — it's unlikely that a child like Scout could exist in the real world. But that's exactly what makes it such a charming, attractive read for young people. It indicates the consciousness of a well-educated adult facing difficult realities, but describes it through the light and playful voice of a curious little girl.
Gaby Hick, a third- year student focused on English literature at Brown University, calls it ^one of the first books that kids and young adults read that deals with serious issues 一 rape, race, mental issues”. She adds, “The story makes these adult themes accessible because of Scout.” The book’s setting, a small town in Alabama affected by the Great Depression of the 1930s, may appear very different from the experience of most kids reading it today. But Lee's words make her story feel alive and present.
In 2006, however, critic Thomas Mallon expressed his regret about the book's avoiding complexity in The New Yorker. But her novel makes a great teaching tool for teenagers precisely because its moral view is as clear as that of one of Aesop's Fables. That absence of ambiguity (含糊其辞）in this novel doesn't mean the novel is free of challenging ideas, either. Will Serratelli, another literature student at Brown says, “There aren’t many hard moral questions being asked …but it opens up all these other questions that 1 hadn't thought about before. My English teachers always asked, Do you sympathize (同情）with this character? Would you want to hang out with them?’ When you give a kid a book where those questions don't even need to be asked, it forces them to dig deeper.”
Mallon's criticism is accurate in that this novel may present too limited a view of racism in America. That's especially problematic because it is one of the only books consistently assigned to American students that acknowledges (承认）racial discrimination (歧视）at all. However, To Kill a Mockingbird may owe some of its popularity as a teaching text to the fact that the narrative voice is a white one. Naomi Vamis, an African Studies student at Brown says, “It's another practice of telling stories about black people through white central characters,” she says.
While the novel is undoubtedly worth its place in the classroom, English teachers may do well to consider that it is a white author's perspective — and ought to be the only beginning of a dialogue about race and never the final word. But as a gateway to more mature ideas, and as a YA(young adult) distillation (提炼）of complex concepts young people may not have grasped before, Lee's novel is invaluable.
62. What does the underlined word “trailed” most probably mean in Paragraph 1 ?
A. Was as good as. B. Tried hard to defeat.
C. Went along the same route as. D. Had a lower score than.
63. What can we conclude from Will Serratelli's statement underlined in Paragraph 5?
A. The kids are unwilling to answer challenging questions.
B. The kids have to face more moral questions.
C. The kids tend to sympathize with the characters.
D. The kids are motivated to think further.
64. Why is the novel well received by teenagers in the U.S.?
A. Because it reveals racial discrimination in America.
B. Because a white author tells the stories about black people.
C. Because it makes some serious adult issues accessible.
D. Because it is widely used as a tool for moral judgments in society.
65. What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?
A. To tell us about the content of the novel.
B. To explain the reasons for its popularity.
C. To introduce some different comments.
D. To approve of the creative writing style.

The basics of infrastructure (基础设施）design
It is rightly pointed out by various intellectuals that the lifestyle of today is vastly different from that of the earlier times especially in terms of its pace. Lifestyle of today is remarkably fast paced and so in order to catch up with such a pace of life, the adoption of smart and time saving methods is of real significance. Well, the highways have certainly contributed in this direction and have made our lives a lot easier. Thanks to the modern flyovers and expressways, a single route can be accessed by twice the number of vehicles at the same time.
These facilities and supplies have made our lives double free but it needs to be realized that designing and constructing it is a very complex and a long process. You have to hold firmly to the various rules of designing, government standards and most importantly, their safety and usability for the people. In the end it is a joint effort of a number of skilled engineers, scientists and statisticians. The material that is used in the construction is finalized after it undergoes certain tests for evaluating their qualities like hardness, roughness, thickness and all that is required.
Some of the points you have to take care of while laying an infrastructure design are as follows:
The basic layout (布局）of the road — At this level of planning, various civil engineers have meetings to figure out the basic requirements of the road like thickness of the asphalt（沥青）,the size of lanes, distance to be covered, degree of curves and much more. These fundamental points help them decide the further line of action.
The prior steps 一 Before any work is stated over the basic plan layout, there are various preparations to be made like placing road signs, the removal of trees that may prove to be dangerous in the event of a storm or other natural causes, the positioning of fire hydrants (?肖防栓）based on special designs to be useful when required, etc.
Inclusion of safety barriers 一 The safety barriers are placed on almost all roads and highways that are made over or near to rivers and cliffs. These barriers keep the vehicles from moving into the traffic in instances of accidents. These should also be designed in advance of placing them on a road and the design should be such that it makes minimum impact upon the people sitting in the car. These include supplies like side rails and light poles.
Asphalt pavement marking — It is the process of using a reflective material to indicate various important points on the road like lanes, turns, passing areas, two-way and one-way roads.
Though the smooth and wide highways constructed in big cities seem to be very attractive for the drivers, the ease of use is also the cause of accidents. Cars rushing at extremely high speeds and insecure change of lanes are a common sight on the highways. With the help of novel infrastructure can make the best possible use of highways, If these are designed properly and number of accidents can be avoided.

作文范文：
Considered as a most useful foreign language, Chinese has gained great popularity in foreign countries such as the UK and the USA. Many countries and regions have included it in their national curriculum.
Why are so many countries enthusiastic about learning Chinese? One reason may be that as China continues to develop rapidly, Chinese is increasingly becoming a useful tool for people’s personal and professional growth. Many people believe that China will be the next great superpower even if it’s not a superpower like America and learning Chinese is the best way to seal tomorrow’s deals. Also, China is a country with a long history, rich in beautiful natural scenery, delicious foods and colorful culture. Learning Chinese can help foreigners know the mysterious ancient country better.
As a middle school student, I will take every opportunity to teach Chinese to foreign friends in my city and vigorously promote the spirit of Chinese and Chinese culture, attracting many more foreigners to wonderful land where miracles happen.

5 Secrets of Web Travel Sites
Booking a trip on an online travel site is convenient, but comes with its own set of problems.
1. They know who’s on a Mac and who’s on a PC and who’s going
to spend more.
Last year, US travel research company Orbitz tracked people’s online activities to test out whether Mac users spend more on travel than PC users. On average, Mac users lay out US$20-30 more per night on hotels and go for more stars, according to the Wall Street Journal. As a result, online travel sites show these users more expensive travel options first. To avoid inadvertently paying more, sort results by price.
2. Their software doesn’t always hook up to the hotel’s system.
A guaranteed reservation is almost impossible to come by anywhere – but the risk of your flight or hotel being overbooked increases with third-party providers. The middle-man’s software isn’t immune to system errors, so always call the hotel or airline to make sure your booking was processed.
3. Don’t be fooled by packages: Often, they’re low-end items grouped together.
Ever notice how travel sites recommend a hotel, a rental car, and tour package all in one click? These deals usually feature travel that no one wants, like flights with multiple layovers. Check the fine print.
4. You could miss out on loyalty points.
Third-party providers can get between you and frequent flyer miles or points. Many hotel loyalty programmes don’t recognize external sites, others award only minimum points and exclude special offers, like double points on hotel stays.
5. Once your trip is purchased, you’re on your own.
An online travel agency can’t provide assistance the same way an agent can if a flight is cancelled or a room is substandard. Basically, when you arrive at the airport or hotel, you’re just another client who booked at the lowest rate.
56. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Third-party providers can ensure your reservation.
B. Mac users are likely to spend more money than PC users.
C. An online travel agency functions the same as an agent.
D. Packages usually provide travelers with satisfactory programmes.
57. What’s the purpose of the passage?
A. To encourage readers to book a trip on an online travel site.
B. To make an advertisement about several travel sites online.
C. To convince readers not to book a trip on an online travel site.
D. To warn readers of some problems with booking trips online.
B
I tried not to be biased, but I had my doubts about hiring Stevie. His social worker assured me that he would be a good, reliable busboy. But I had never had a mentally handicapped employee. He was short, a little fat, with the smooth facial features and thick-togued speech of Down’s Syndrome（唐氏综合症）. I thought most of my customers would be uncomfortable around Stevie, so I closely watched him for the first few weeks.
I shouldn’t have worried. After the first week, Stevie had my staff wrapped around his stubby little finger, and within a month my regular trucker customers had adopted him as their official truck stop mascot. After that, I really didn"t care what the rest of the customers thought of him. He was like a 21-year-old in blue jeans and Nikes, eager to laugh and eager to please, but fierce in his attention to his duties. Every salt and pepper shaker was exactly in its place, not a bread crumb or coffee spill was visible when Stevie got done with the table. Our only problem was persuading him to wait to clean a table until after the customers were finished.
Over time, we learned that he lived with his mother, a widow who was disabled. Money was tight, and what I paid him was probably the difference between them being able to live together and Stevie being sent to a group home.
That’s why the restaurant was a gloomy place that morning last August, the first morning in three years that Stevie missed work. He was at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester getting a heart surgery. His social worker said that people with Downs Syndrome often had heart problems at an early age and there was a good chance he would come through the surgery in good shape and be back at work in a few months.
A ripple of excitement ran through the staff later that morning when word came that he was out of surgery, in recovery, and doing fine. Frannie, my head waitress, did a little dance when she heard the good news. Belle Ringer, one of our regular trucker customers, stared at her and asked, “Okay, Frannie, what was that all about?”
"We just got word that Stevie is out of surgery and going to be okay."
"I was wondering where he was. I had a new joke to tell him. What was the surgery about?"
Frannie quickly told Belle Ringer and the other two drivers sitting at his booth about Stevie"s surgery, then sighed: "Yeah, I"m glad he is going to be OK," she said. "But I don"t know how he and his Mom are going to handle all the bills. From what I hear, they"re barely getting by as it is."
Belle Ringer nodded thoughtfully, and Frannie hurried off to wait on the rest of her tables.
After the morning rush, Frannie walked into my office. She had a couple of paper napkins in her hand.
"What"s up?" I asked.
“I cleared off that table where Belle Ringer and his friends were sitting after they left, and I found this. This was folded and tucked under a coffee cup."
She handed the napkin to me, and three $20 bills fell onto my desk when I opened it. On the outside, in big, bold letters, was printed "Something For Stevie".
That was three months ago. Today is New Year’s day , the first day Stevie is supposed to be back to work. His placement worker said he had been counting the days until the doctor said he could work, I arranged to have his mother bring him to work, met them in the parking lot and invited them both to celebrate his day back. I took him and his mother by their arms. “To celebrate you coming back, breakfast for you and your mother is on me.”
I led them toward a large corner booth. I could feel and hear truck customers and the rest of the staff following behind as we marched through the dining room. We stopped in front of the big table. Its surface was covered with coffee cups and dinner plates, all sitting slightly on dozens of folded paper napkins.
"First thing you have to do, Stevie, is clean up this mess," I said.
Stevie looked at me, and then pulled out one of the napkins. It had "Something for Stevie" printed on the outside. As he picked it up, two $10 bills fell onto the table. Stevie stared at the money, then at all the napkins peeking from beneath the tableware, each with his name printed on it.
I turned to his mother. “There"s more than $10,000 in cash and checks on that table, all from truckers and trucking companies that heard about your problems. Happy Thanksgiving!”
While everybody else was busy shaking hands and hugging each other, Stevie, with a big, big smile on his face, was busy clearing all the cups and dishes from the table.
58. Why did the author have doubts about hiring Stevie?
A. Because Stevie was not that reliable.
B. Because Stevie was mentally disabled
C. Because Stevie was too short and fat.
D. Because Stevie was bad-tempered
59. By saying the underlined sentence in Para 3, the author meant that the money she paid Stevie____
A. could help Stevie out of the trouble
B. couldn’t thoroughly solve Stevie’s problem
C. could make a great difference to Stevie’s life
D. could send Stevie to a group home
60. Why did Frannie sigh after she got word that Stevie would be OK?
A. She was worried that the owner would fire Stevie.
B. She was worried about Stevie’s health.
C. She was worried about Stevie’s finance problem.
D. She was worried that no one would help Stevie.
61. Stevie was popular among the staff and customers in the restaurant because of____.
A. his special appearance.
B. his hard work and optimism.
C. his funny speeches and actions.
D. his kind-hearted behaviour.

Nelle Harper Lee? better known by her pen name Harper Lee, was an American novelist widely known for To Kill a Mockingbird, published in 1960. Immediately successful, it won the 1961 Pulitzer Prize and has become a classic of modem American literature. In 1991 an organization conducted a survey that made readers identify books that had “made a difference” in their lives. The result? Lee's book trailed only The Bible. Alongside the works of Shakespeare and Twain, this novel remains one of the most widely taught books nationwide, reaching about 70% of American public schools. What makes it such a typical read for young people?
English class is a place where young Americans come to know themselves. In the folds of dusty books, students can make contact with humanity beyond the shallow small talk of the school hallways. Disturbed by hormones (荷尔蒙）and anxiety, teenagers get through school with confusion and frustration. Literature is a safety valve (安全阀）一 it promises relief, a place to figure out one's problems and get to know oneself better.
The novel particularly distinguishes itself in this aspect. It speaks in a child's voice without treating its readership as children. Some critics have called it an “impossible” achievement, a children's book penned by a well-educated adult — it's unlikely that a child like Scout could exist in the real world. But that's exactly what makes it such a charming, attractive read for young people. It indicates the consciousness of a well-educated adult facing difficult realities, but describes it through the light and playful voice of a curious little girl.
Gaby Hick, a third- year student focused on English literature at Brown University, calls it ^one of the first books that kids and young adults read that deals with serious issues 一 rape, race, mental issues”. She adds, “The story makes these adult themes accessible because of Scout.” The book’s setting, a small town in Alabama affected by the Great Depression of the 1930s, may appear very different from the experience of most kids reading it today. But Lee's words make her story feel alive and present.
In 2006, however, critic Thomas Mallon expressed his regret about the book's avoiding complexity in The New Yorker. But her novel makes a great teaching tool for teenagers precisely because its moral view is as clear as that of one of Aesop's Fables. That absence of ambiguity (含糊其辞）in this novel doesn't mean the novel is free of challenging ideas, either. Will Serratelli, another literature student at Brown says, “There aren’t many hard moral questions being asked …but it opens up all these other questions that 1 hadn't thought about before. My English teachers always asked, Do you sympathize (同情）with this character? Would you want to hang out with them?’ When you give a kid a book where those questions don't even need to be asked, it forces them to dig deeper.”
Mallon's criticism is accurate in that this novel may present too limited a view of racism in America. That's especially problematic because it is one of the only books consistently assigned to American students that acknowledges (承认）racial discrimination (歧视）at all. However, To Kill a Mockingbird may owe some of its popularity as a teaching text to the fact that the narrative voice is a white one. Naomi Vamis, an African Studies student at Brown says, “It's another practice of telling stories about black people through white central characters,” she says.
While the novel is undoubtedly worth its place in the classroom, English teachers may do well to consider that it is a white author's perspective — and ought to be the only beginning of a dialogue about race and never the final word. But as a gateway to more mature ideas, and as a YA(young adult) distillation (提炼）of complex concepts young people may not have grasped before, Lee's novel is invaluable.
62. What does the underlined word “trailed” most probably mean in Paragraph 1 ?
A. Was as good as. B. Tried hard to defeat.
C. Went along the same route as. D. Had a lower score than.
63. What can we conclude from Will Serratelli's statement underlined in Paragraph 5?
A. The kids are unwilling to answer challenging questions.
B. The kids have to face more moral questions.
C. The kids tend to sympathize with the characters.
D. The kids are motivated to think further.
64. Why is the novel well received by teenagers in the U.S.?
A. Because it reveals racial discrimination in America.
B. Because a white author tells the stories about black people.
C. Because it makes some serious adult issues accessible.
D. Because it is widely used as a tool for moral judgments in society.
65. What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?
A. To tell us about the content of the novel.
B. To explain the reasons for its popularity.
C. To introduce some different comments.
D. To approve of the creative writing style.

The basics of infrastructure (基础设施）design
It is rightly pointed out by various intellectuals that the lifestyle of today is vastly different from that of the earlier times especially in terms of its pace. Lifestyle of today is remarkably fast paced and so in order to catch up with such a pace of life, the adoption of smart and time saving methods is of real significance. Well, the highways have certainly contributed in this direction and have made our lives a lot easier. Thanks to the modern flyovers and expressways, a single route can be accessed by twice the number of vehicles at the same time.
These facilities and supplies have made our lives double free but it needs to be realized that designing and constructing it is a very complex and a long process. You have to hold firmly to the various rules of designing, government standards and most importantly, their safety and usability for the people. In the end it is a joint effort of a number of skilled engineers, scientists and statisticians. The material that is used in the construction is finalized after it undergoes certain tests for evaluating their qualities like hardness, roughness, thickness and all that is required.
Some of the points you have to take care of while laying an infrastructure design are as follows:
The basic layout (布局）of the road — At this level of planning, various civil engineers have meetings to figure out the basic requirements of the road like thickness of the asphalt（沥青）,the size of lanes, distance to be covered, degree of curves and much more. These fundamental points help them decide the further line of action.
The prior steps 一 Before any work is stated over the basic plan layout, there are various preparations to be made like placing road signs, the removal of trees that may prove to be dangerous in the event of a storm or other natural causes, the positioning of fire hydrants (?肖防栓）based on special designs to be useful when required, etc.
Inclusion of safety barriers 一 The safety barriers are placed on almost all roads and highways that are made over or near to rivers and cliffs. These barriers keep the vehicles from moving into the traffic in instances of accidents. These should also be designed in advance of placing them on a road and the design should be such that it makes minimum impact upon the people sitting in the car. These include supplies like side rails and light poles.
Asphalt pavement marking — It is the process of using a reflective material to indicate various important points on the road like lanes, turns, passing areas, two-way and one-way roads.
Though the smooth and wide highways constructed in big cities seem to be very attractive for the drivers, the ease of use is also the cause of accidents. Cars rushing at extremely high speeds and insecure change of lanes are a common sight on the highways. With the help of novel infrastructure can make the best possible use of highways, If these are designed properly and number of accidents can be avoided.

When 4-year-old British royal family member Prince George started his first day of school in September, Chinese language was on his curriculum（课程）.
And he wasn’t alone. According to a report published by the British Council in September, about 51% of UK parents want their children to learn Chinese, as it’s believed to be one of the most useful languages to know.
In fact, the UK isn’t the only country showing a growing interest in Chinese. In the USA, the language has become the second most spoken foreign language this year, after only Spanish, with over 2.million speakers, according to a survey by a US financial news website.

作文范文：
Considered as a most useful foreign language, Chinese has gained great popularity in foreign countries such as the UK and the USA. Many countries and regions have included it in their national curriculum.
Why are so many countries enthusiastic about learning Chinese? One reason may be that as China continues to develop rapidly, Chinese is increasingly becoming a useful tool for people’s personal and professional growth. Many people believe that China will be the next great superpower even if it’s not a superpower like America and learning Chinese is the best way to seal tomorrow’s deals. Also, China is a country with a long history, rich in beautiful natural scenery, delicious foods and colorful culture. Learning Chinese can help foreigners know the mysterious ancient country better.
As a middle school student, I will take every opportunity to teach Chinese to foreign friends in my city and vigorously promote the spirit of Chinese and Chinese culture, attracting many more foreigners to wonderful land where miracles happen.
