Electric cars may seem like a recent invention,but they've been around for years.In the early 1900s,there were more electric cars on the road than there were petrol(汽油)cars.At that time,petrol was e(1) compared with other fuels(燃料)。W(2) petrol prices dropped and new technologies were developed,electric cars went out of fashion (过时).Instead,petrol cars became more p(3) because they could travel longer distances (距离)without stopping.
During the 20th century,petrol cars got bigger,heavier,and faster.They needed more fuel,and it c(4) more air pollution.For years,car makers didn't worry about pollution.They didn't worry about the amount of petrol cars used,e(5) .But when people began to realise that there was not enough oil on the earth,they asked car makers to produce more efficient(高效能的)and less polluting cars.
One m(6) of solving the problem was a "hybrid" car(混合动力车),one that ran partly on petrol and partly on electricity.Hybrid cars became popular in the 2000s when petrol prices went up and the prices of hybrid cars went d(7) .
An all﹣electric car uses no petrol.The problem,however,is that car batteries (电池) need to be recharged (再充电).That makes electric cars not so useful for long j(8) .
Many people are not p(9) with it.The government and car makers are w(10) together to develop safe,cheap,and useful electric cars.When people have these cars in the future,a petrol station may be a thing of the past.
During the unusual winter holiday in 2020,we stayed at home for two (1) (month)because of COVID﹣19.But my father,a member of the Communist Party of China,didn't stay (2) us at home for too long.
When my dad heard about some (3) (use)work,he became a volunteer in a rural area to help check people's information and spread knowledge about COVID﹣19.As the situation became much (4) (bad),24﹣hour traffic checkpoints were set up on the main roads to the village.There was only (5) simple tent,a few chairs and two heaters for volunteers (6) (spend)the night.The winter night was very cold and the volunteers could hardly sleep.But my father (7) (final)chose to stay because he wanted to guard the gate for other people.
Dad (8) (join)the Party a few years ago.At first,I didn't know much about it.After the pandemic,I learned that the Party members are people (9) will step forward when China is in trouble.When I grow up,I want to become one of
(10) (they).Even if I am not a Party member,I will make contributions to our society,making it a much better place.
Coming home after working for the whole night I lost my wallet.It was
(1) (probable) very close to my house but I couldn't find it and had to cancel my credit cards.I had kept(2) wallet for ten years and it was a Christmas present.It was a bright,red leather wallet.Not every adult is sad about losing something, (3) I was very upset about losing my wallet.
I spoke to my (4) (friend) about my lost wallet.Most of them said I might get the wallet back finally but the money in it would (5) (appear).I had listed all the things in my wallet (6) (get) some new ones.
I came home late the next night and my red wallet was in front of my house.I checked it carefully.
(7) everything in my wallet,there was a note.I was surprised when I read the note which said, "I (8) (find) this last night.It was too dark to go through it then,so I came back tonight.I got your address from your license.Sorry.Mike."
Not only had this man returned my wallet but he was sorry for not bringing it back
(9) (early).There was no information about Mike so I couldn't get in touch with him to say "Thank you".But I did hope he could know how (10) (thank) I was!
