BEIJING—The sky is gray and air smells strange. It’s another day of smog.
On Saturday, heavy haze（霾）still covered north and east China. Highways were closed and couldn’t take off on time.
The smoggy weather the country’s land from north to south, including Beijing, Hebei, Shandong, and 6 other provinces. People could only see clearly than 50 meters in some areas.
Cities Shanghai and Nanjing have been covered by the gray sky for the past several days. Many walkers in the street had to wear . In the Lukou airport in Nanjing, more than 60 flights were canceled(取消) on Saturday the haze, which also made primary and middle schools and kindergartens stop on Thursday and Friday in Nanjing.
The office worker of Environmental Protection said earlier this week that there were several reasons behind the widespread haze: unpleasant weather conditions making difficult for smog to disappear, automobile exhaust（尾气）, and coal use for winter heating.
To fight pollution, the Chinese government now plans to clean up the air by cutting coal use, some factories, and removing 6 million old cars from the roads.
“We must face up to the facts,” said Yan Naiqiang, a professor of environmental science at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. “The treatment of smog will be a long fight. From now on, if we use buses or cars less and do more riding, we believe a clear sky is not a faraway dream.”

Much meaning can be carried clearly, with our eyes, so it is often ___that eyes can speak.
Do you have such kind of______? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he______that he is being looked at, he may feel uncomfortable. The same in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down, to see if there is______wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel______toward the person who is looking at you that way. Eyes do speak, right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be impolite. But sometimes things are different. If a man looks at a woman for more than 10 seconds, it may mean that he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he______ her. When two people are in a conversation, the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, ______ make sure that the listener does pay attention______what he or she is saying. Lovers will enjoy looking at each other or being looked at for a long time, to show something that ______cannot express.

Sometimes it is impossible to deliver（投递）all the mail that arrives at the post office. Perhaps there is an mailing address and there is no return address. The post office cannot just the mail, so it becomes “dead mail”. Dead mail is to one of the U.S. Post Service’s in Atlanta, New York, and San Francisco. Seventy-five million pieces of mail can be put in these offices in one year.
There the workers of the dead mail offices have ways to deal with all of these pieces of dead mail. First of all, they look for that can help them deliver the mail； they open packages, expecting that something will show where the package came from or is going to. Dead mail will also be listed on a so that people can call in and check to see if a missing thing is there on the screen. However, all of this mail cannot simply be forever； there is just too much of it. When a lot of dead mail comes together, the dead mail offices hold public auctions (拍卖). Every three months, some people who are are invited to the offices with objects found in dead mail packages and they are sold to the bidder (出价者).

These days， cars are designed using computers. Let's look at how a new car is created.
First， several talk about the new car and any good ideas that they have. Then they sit down at their computers and many sketches（素描）．The best two or three drawings are chosen and then more detailed drawings of are developed on the computer. You can change the size， shape or colour of any part on the computer to see the car would look and then you can choose the best design.
Both the inside and the outside of the car have to be designed. Part of the inside of the car is so that the designers can sit in it. They can feel if there is enough inside and if they can reach .Then some cars are built-there are more than 15， 000 parts of a car to .
When everything is known to be ，the cars are made in the factory. Again computers are used to make sure that all the parts are as they are needed. The factory usually stays open all through the night so that the car production never stops.
