If you won a lottery and had lots of money, what would you do? Most people would start by buying themselves things, such as a new car or a bigger TV. Some people even
9
decide to move a bigger house.
Many people who win lots of money may find that they have a lot of friends. The new friends they make may follow them for their money but they may also leave them when all money is spent. Sometimes people can’t decide what they want to do with all the money they have won, so they try to think of what they want. In the end, most people usually decide to save the money.
There are some lottery winners who decide to give up their jobs, because they think they have enough money and don’t need to work any longer. Some big lottery winners make even bigger changes—they end their marriages. They feel that they should be with a younger or more attractive man or woman but what they don’t know is that their new money is just a bit of luck. It can’t change everything. Before you buy the next lottery ticket, think about what you want to do and what you don’t want to do if you won.

In Britain you’re allowed to drive a car when you’re seventeen. You have to get a special two-year driving license before you can start. When you’re leaning, someone with a full license always has to be in the car with you because you aren’t allowed to drive the car on the road alone. You don’t have to go to a driving school --- a friend can teach you. The person with you isn’t allowed to take money for the lesson unless he’s got a teacher’s license.
Before you’re allowed to have a full license, you have to take a driving test. You can take a test in your own car, but it has to be fit for the road. In the test you have to drive round for about half an hour and then answer a few questions. If you don’t pass the test, you’re allowed to take it again a few weeks later if you want to. In 1970 a woman passed her fortieth test after 212 driving lessons! When you’ve passed your test, you don’t have to take it again, and you’re allowed to go on driving as long as you like. Britain’s oldest driver was a man who drove in 1974 at the age of 100.
Before 1904 everyone was allowed to drive, even children. Then from 1904 car drivers had to have a license. But they didn’t have to take a test until 1935. On the early days of car driving, before 1878, cars weren’t allowed to go faster than four miles an hour and someone had to lead the car with a red flag.
( )9. Which of the following is NOT necessary for a young man who wants to drive a car alone?

CCTV reported that every year Chinese people throw away a lot of food which can feed 200 million people for a year.
Do we have too much food? Of course not. According to the UN World Food Programme, there were 900million hungry people all over the world in 2013. About six million children die of hunger every year.
So think about it. We should say no to people who waste food every day. An old saying goes, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work.” It tells us everybody must save food.
Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Jiangsu, once lost her job because she took some leftover(剩余的) food home for her son. But many people were by her side and criticized (批评) the waste of food.
What should we do in our daily life to stop wasting food? We can do many things to prevent it from happening. Here are some tips:
Don't order too much food in a restaurant. Only order as much as you can eat. If

you can’t eat all the food you order, take the rest of it home.
Don’t be too picky(挑剔的) about food. some food may not be tasty, but put body need it.
Don’t keep too much food at home, especially for fruit and vegetables.
