Everyone should care about their eyes. However, there are certain people that should especially wear sunglasses. Theis is for their safety, and the safety of others.
Drivers should always have sunglasse handy. Whether you are driving your own car or a bus full of people, the sun can be your enemy. The rays could cause you not to see the traffic that stopped 50 feet in front of you. Accidents like this can be avoided by always having sunglasses in your car.
It is very important that parents teach their children from an early age to wear sunglasses. In addition, you are protecting very delicate（柔弱的）eyes as well. Children, especially the very young, are growing and developing in every way. Protecting their eyes with sunglasses from the start will recude the damage they will pay for later in life.
Even babies can wear sunglasses. A child begins their life by being able to focus on objects only less than the inches from their face. A pair of baby sunglasses will keep harmful rays out of your baby’s young, delicate eyes.
Anyone who spends long time in the sun should know the advantages of sunglasses. If you are extremely interested in water sports and spend a lot of time at the beach or on a lake, you could be at greater risk. Water sportsmen like water — skiers know how protective sunglasses will save a lifetime of hardship. The sun reflecting-off （反射）the water into your eyes can increase
the damage. So do find a good pair of water sunglasses while you ride the waves.

Are men better drivers than women? The answer is yes...and no.
Men take more risks（风险）. In sutdies, men as a whole are less careful than women, such as driving at higher speeds and closer to other cars, and not wearing seat belts. They even make risker turns and take less time when parking.
BUT... how someone drives doesn’t necessarily equal how well he drives. Men do seem to be better than women at certain driving tasks. However, this slight edge in ability doesn’t translate into better driving records. The kinds of accidents men get into are generally the result of their riskier driving. According to one study, men are more than three times as likely to be ticketed for “risky driving” than women, and more than 25 percent as likely to be at fault in an accident.
The ability to make good judgement is a powerful thing. Despite the
research, scientists point out that it’s difficult to determine whether men are truly born to be better drivers than women, or if they’re simply more confident in their driving because they’re thought to be better, and thus show better skills. Similarly, the traditional view that women are weaker drivers may unfavourably affect（影响） their performance behind the wheel.
Women are catching up... which isn’t necessarily good news. Men may be responsible for more accidents than women, but the gap（差距）is getting smaller. Today, more women drive than ever before, which has the unfortunate increase in speeding, risky driving, and even death among women.
The take-home: Learn from the strengths of both sexes. Drive confidently and carefully. And don’t forget to wear your seat belt. 38. Which of the following is a risk mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A. Driving with careless women. B. Driving in another person’s car. C. Driving without seat belts. D. Driving in a parking lot. 39. What does the word “edge” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Improvement. B. Advantage. C. Problem. D. Change. 40. The writer seems to suggest in Paragraph 4 that women are weaker drivers because ______.
A. they are less responsible B. they are poorer in judgement C. they are born weaker persons D. they are considered less confident 41. In Paragraph 5 the writer expresses his concern about ______. A. women’s driving safety B. women’s slow response C. the age difference among women D. the proper speed for women drivers

Leonardo da Vinci was one of the greatest artists the world has ever known. He was also an inventor, an architect （建筑师）, an astronomer（天文学家）,and a scientist. Leonardo was born in Italy in 1452. When he was
fourteen years old, he moved to the city of Florence to study painting. People could see that he was a great artist, and he quickly became known throughout Italy. However, he had other interests, too. One of them was city planning and architecture. He designed several churches and was hired as an engineer to help repair others.
Later in his life, Leonardo became a teacher. When he was in his forties, he invented a flying machine which one of his young students tried to fly. Unluckily, it didn’t work. So Leonardo made another ftlying machine. Another of his students tested it by jumping with it from a tall tower. The one didn’t work either. Luckily, the student wasn’t hurt. Leonardo made many machines like this.
Leonardo was all impatient man, and his mind was always coming up with new ideas. As a result, he didn’t always manage to complete one invention before moving on to the next. This was also true of his art. Leonardo created a great statue（雕像）of a man on a horse, but he never finished it. He had probably thought of something new to try and lost interest in the Statue.
However, Leonardo did complete many of his works. He painted one of the most famous paintings in the world, the Mona Lisa. He also made discoveries about the stars in the sky. In many ways, he was a man ahead of his time.

He created a great statue of a man on a horse. 43. When did Leonardo begin to show his gift for painting? A. When he studied in Florence. B. When he was in his forties. C.
