【題目】English has become a world language. So which country, except English-speaking countries, speaks English best? And where does China rank(排名)?

The Netherlands(荷蘭) ranked first, followed by Denmark and Sweden. The rankings are based on English reading and listening test results of 950, 000 people from 72 countries and areas.

The English level in China is still low, ranking 39th. In China, people in Shanghai are the best English speakers. They speak better English than Italians and French. Hong Kong and Beijing follow Shanghai as China’s next best English-speaking cities.

Shanghai and Beijing rank high because they are international cities. However, across China, English level is different from east to west. China has 400 million English learners, reported China Daily. However, the teaching of English in some areas is not very good. According to the People’s Daily Online, there are seventy primary schools in Shetianqiao town in Hunan, but only one English teacher. Many students still learn English by rote memorizaton(死記硬背).

Sebastian Magnusson, an officer at the Swedish embassy(瑞典大使館) in Beijing, gave some advice. Swedish people speak English well and Magnusson himself is also fluent in Chinese. He said TV programs, movies and even computer games could be learning tools. “Do not limit(限制) it to textbooks. What matters most is to use what you’ve learned,” Magnusson said.

【題目】Google and Toyota（豐田）have worked together to create a new smart car. It can run on the road without a driver. It drives itself.

The self-driving（自駕的）car hasn’t been on sale to the public, so we don’t know how much it costs. Another thing that most people want to know is whether it will be safe enough to run on the road.

The self-driving car uses electricity as its power, and it can’t drive very quickly—the top speed would be 25 miles per hour. It is actually controlled by a computer system in the car. The system keeps on collecting information by some video cameras inside the car. A computer receives the information and decides what to do.

“The self-driving car has only buttons (按鈕) for go and stop, so it’s very easy to use.” an engineer of Google says, “It will make car accidents less and the world safer.” The self-driving car has traveled hundreds of thousands of miles in California, and it has only gotten into two accidents by human mistake.

【1】How much does this new kind of smart car cost?

________________________________________

【2】What does self-driving car use as its power?

________________________________________

【3】What is the self-driving car controlled by?

________________________________________

【4】Who says “It will make car accidents less and the world safer.”?

________________________________________

【5】Why did the self-driving car get into two accidents?
