(原创)BEIJING, Oct. 1(Xinhua)—Police across China have got ready to deal with huge traffic flows along expressways during the eight-day national holiday, said the Ministry of Public Security here Monday.
Traffic along main expressways increased by more than 40 percent on Sunday, the first day of the holiday period, said a statement on the ministry website.
Police have opened 743 service stations along expressways and set up to 14, 000 temporary service booths to help control traffic, the statement said.
In addition, more than 16, 000 ambulances have been put on standby for emergencies and accidents along busy sections, the statement said.
The number of travellers taking to China’s expressways totaled 85 million by 4 p. m. on Sunday, 13. 3 percent more than that of last year, according to the Ministry of Transport.
The surge was partially due to a new government policy.

And it officially takes effect from the National Day this year.
The policy, which allows free passage of passenger cars with seven seats or fewer on toll roads, bridges and tunnels, is warmly welcomed by the majority of private car owners, but some people complain that toll gates cause traffic jams during national holidays.
Authorities predict that around 740 million trips will be made by Chinese people during the holiday, with about 660 million trips to be made on roads and waters. The ministry called in the statement for safe driving and urged drivers to stay away from hard shoulders(隔离墩)on expressways during congestions so emergency vehicles can pass. (283W)

(B)
On the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You’re nervous and that’s okay. Everyone is afraid of high school. ”I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.
On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn’t figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didn’t think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right.
Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.
Since then, I’ve been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn’t much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.
It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some out-of-class activities because you’ll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isn’t straight A’s.
Most important of all, be who you are, whether you’re a“fool”, an athlete, or a lower grader. Don’t try to pretend to be someone you’re not. Now you know the true secrets of high school. (302W)
6. The main reason for the author’s fear on his first day is that .
A. he was unable to work out the puzzle
B. his schoolmates were unfriendly to him
C. he was not familiar with the new surroundings
D. his schoolbag was too heavy for him to carry
7. From the author’s first day experience we can infer that .
A. his home was far from the school
B. he got to school after classes began
C. he didn’t get any school schedule
D. he didn’t know the right way to class
8. After his first week at school, the author .
A. was still not accustomed to the schedule
B. gradually adjusted himself to the new school
C. found high school not so challenging as he had imagined
D. ran for monitor of his class against three other students
9. According to the passage, the secret of the author’s success lies mainly in .
A. making more friends

C. being who he really is
D. joining in out-of-class activities
