Car Pollution
Some cars do not run the way they should. Bad smoke from a car can get into the air. This bad smoke is called pollution.
Pollution turns the air a gray(灰色的) color. It is very dirty. It is not good for people to breathe this dirty air.
To keep pollution down, the states tests cars every two years. This test checks to make sure the cars do not pollute the air. If a car does not pass the test, the owner cannot drive it the next year.
Some car owners drive their cars even though they cannot pass the test. It is also very bad for the air.
People want to find a way to get these cars off the road. So a state program(项目) was started that now seems to be helping. In this program the States buys cars that cannot pass the test or will help pay for repairs. This program has been helping people buy better cars or fix their old ones. It has also been helping to cut down on pollution.
To meet the needs for the program, a car must be drivable and the owner must meet certain income(收入) restrictions(限制). In order to get help from the program, a motorist must have a family income of no more than 185% of the national poverty guidelines(贫困线). For a family of four, that would be no more than $32,653 each year.
The state program that takes polluting cars off the road has just finished its first year, and people say it has been successful.
For the past year, the state program has been buying cars that can’t pass the test. Some car owners get as much as $1,000 for their old ones, while others receive as much as $500 for repairs.
The cars bought by the States through the program are put out of use and sent to dismantlers(拆卸厂).
46. Cars get tested every two years to make sure ________.
A. the owners can get some money??? ?????? B. they can get repaired on time
C. they don’t pollute the air????????? ???????? ?D. the government can decide to buy them or not
47. A car owner can get some money from the program if he / she has ________.
?? A. a motor???????????????????? B. only one car????? C. a small family??????????? D. a low income
48. After being bought by the government, a car will be ________.
?? A. put out of use???????? ?? B. repaired ???????? ??C. tested again?????????????? ?D. reused

One silly question I simply can’t understand is “How do you feel?” Usually the question I asked of a man’s action—a man on the go, walking along the street or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? He’ll probably say, “Fine, I’m all right, ” but you’ve put a bug in his ear—maybe now he’s not sure. If you are a good friend, you may have seen something in his face, or his walk, that he overlooked(忽略) that morning. It starts him worrying a little. First thing you know, he looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else. “How do you feel?”
Every question has its time and place. It’s perfectly acceptable, for example, to ask “How do you feel?” if you’re visiting a close friend in hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying take a train, or sitting at his desk working, it’s no time to ask him that silly question.
When George Bernard Shaw, the famous writer of plays, was in his eighties, someone asked him, “How do you feel?” Shaw put him in his place. “When you reach my age, ” he said, “either you feel all right or you’re dead. ”
49. The question “How do you feel?” seems to be correct and suitable when asked of ______.
? A. a man working at his desk?????????????????????? ? B. a person having lost a close friend
? C. a stranger who looks worried???????????????????? D. a friend who is ill
50. The writer seems to feel that a busy man should______.
? A. be praised for his efforts?????????????????????????? B. never be asked any question
? C. not be bothered(烦扰)?????????????????????????? ?? D. be discouraged from working so hard
51. George Bernard’s reply in the passages shows his______.
? A. cheerfulness????????B. cleverness?????????? C. kindness????????D. politeness
