Autech Japan Inc.,
affiliated with Nissan Motor Co. Ltd., aims to launch the Micro Utility Vehicle
in Japan in 2006 in
co-operation with Tokyo
University and other
institutions.
The vehicle would be
equipped with sensors and cameras that would examine movements of the driver's
arms, legs and eyes and detect shortcomings in his or her driving skills.
"It
is necessary to provide an easy-to-drive, safe means of transport for elderly
people to enable their social participation," Autech and its collaborators
said in a project plan. The number of senior drivers is expected to surge given
Japan 's
rapidly graying society.
Autech has already developed
an electric-powered prototype one-seater, which runs at a maximum speed of 60
kilometers per hour. -AFP

A Bundle of Troubles
Taamenang
was a poor African farmer; weighed down by his worries. One morning he decided
to carry all his problems to the Almighty God to see whether He could offer a
solution. He gathered them up, tied them up in a bundle and carried them up to
the house of God. Timidly he knocked on the sacred door. Lightning flashed out
and the door flew open, nearly throwing Taamenang to the ground. A voice said
from within, "Come in, Mr Taamenang!"
The man struggled in with
the bundle on his head.
"What do you
want?" asked the voice.
"Almighty God, I know
that with You all things are possible. Please reduce my problems to suit my
size. My problems are too many and too great for me."
Almighty
God laughed and the laugh sounded like thunder. Then He said in a very calm,
soothing voice, "My son, step out of the door of this house and throw your
bundle down into the valley!"
The man quickly did as God
had ordered him.
"My child," came
the voice again, "it is forbidden for any living person to be without
problems, so go down into the Valley
of Tears and choose a
bundle that suits your size."
Down
in the Valley of Tears , Taamenang examined the many
bundles that had been thrown there. After spending the whole day weighing all
of them, he discovered the lightest one and thought that it would be quite
suitable for him. He carried it up to the door of the Almighty and stood
smiling and waiting. Soon the door flashed open and Taamenang walked in. Then,
he spoke delightedly to God, "Almighty, I have found the lightest bundle
for myself."
God
replied with a deep booming laugh that shook the whole house to its very
foundations. "My son," He said to Taamenang, "the bundle you
have selected is the very same bundle that you threw down into the valley this
morning."

A Lot of Rubbish
There
have been many complaints recently about the Colony's garbage collection
service. The Urban Service Department has agreed that the service needs
improvement. But nothing has been done!
The
Urban Service Department cannot give shortage of trucks or workmen as an
excuse. There are now more than twenty new trucks and there is no shortage of
workmen. Ten percent of the working population is unemployed.
Why is the service so
inefficient? The answer is that there is no proper supervision of the workmen.
In
some streets the garbage is collected only once a month because the workmen are
not supervised. In other streets, collection in more frequent but half of the
garbage is left in the road. The workmen are too lazy to pick it up and put it
in the trucks.
In
some parts of the colony, house-holders are dumping their garbage on the waste
land. This is dangerous and an unhealthy to do. These `dumps' may catch fire
and they will certainly attract rats and flies. It is the duty of the Urban
Service Department to collect all the garbage efficiently and regularly.

the garbage trucks.

Thank's for your last e-mail. I'm sorry I haven't_______ 21___ to you sooner, but I've got lots of homework this term so
I'm really busy.
I've got a bit of a problem with the first 3-day

Both places appeal to me; both of them are really

I must___ 24___ a decision a quickly as possible

In autumn, the color of the
leaves changes into beautiful yellow, red, and brown. Do you know how this happens?
To answer that question, first we have to understand about leaves.
Leaves are the food
factories of plants. Plants take water from the ground through their roots and
they take carbon dioxide from the air. Plants need glucose for energy and for
their growth.
The
plants use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into glucose. The process
is called photosynthesis and the substance that helps this photosynthesis
process is called chlorophyll. This chlorophyll makes plants look green.
As
summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter. The trees
"know" that they have to be ready for winter. During winter, there is
not enough sunlight or water for the photosynthesis process. The trees will
rest, and use the food that they have stored during summer. The trees begin to
close their food factories. The green chlorophyll substance disappears from the
leaves. As the leaves begin to lose their green color, they change into
beautiful yellow and orange.
In
some trees, like maple tree, glucose is trapped in the leaves after the
photosynthesis process stops. Sunlight and cool rights turn the green color of
the leaves into red. Oak leaves become brown because of wastes that are left in
the leaves. This combination of red and brown makes the trees look very
beautiful in autumn.

a.
leave c.
fruit e.
chlorophyll
b. branch d. root
29. When do the trees
produce their food?
a. in summer c. in autumn e. in fall
b. in winter d. in spring
30. What makes the trees
look beautiful in autumn?
a. Because their leaves are doing photosynthesis.
b. Because the trees will rest and use their food.
c. Because they have stored their food.
d. Because sunlight and cool nights turn the color of leaves
in maple tree.
e. Because the leaves color of trees change into beautiful
combination of colors.
