(Question)
Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Imagine a world where air pollution is no longer a problem. Clean air is all around us. People don't have to worry about polluting the air every time they drive their cars. They no longer need to face the problem of not having enough fuel either. Although scientists have been trying for many years to develop a new kind of car that does not need gasoline , _ have been unsuccessful. Recently, however, car engineers have succeeded in creating a new kind of car that runs on gasoline and electricity . This is the famous "hybrid car". This car gets its name from the fact that it has a gasoline engine and an electric motor inside. Hybrid cars do not pollute the environment as much as the cars that are commonly used today. They also cost drivers less money because they need less fuel than ordinary cars. Hybrid cars are becoming widely popular in the United States. They are soon expected to become widely used around the world. If scientists and engineers continue to work on car development, perhaps the world with clean air that we imagined earlier just might become real in the future. Question: The best title for the passage would be _ . - The Car of the Future - The Meaning of Hybrid - The Use of Hybrid Cars - The Invention of the Car
(Answer)
The Car of the Future

Ques: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: "How are you?" is a nice question.It's a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other,but "How are you?" is also a very unusual question.It's a question that often doesn't have an answer.The person who asks "How are you?" hopes to hear the answer "Fine", even if the Derson's friend isn't fine.The reason is that "How are you?" isn't really a question and "Fine",isn't really an answer.They are simply other ways of saying "Hello!" or "Hi!". Sometimes,people also don't say exactly what they mean.For example,when someone asks "Do you agree?".the other person might be thinking,"No,I disagree.I think you're wrong."But it isn't very polite to disagree so strongly,so the other person might say "I'm not so sure."It's a nicer way to say that you don't agree with someone. People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people.For example,many talks over the phone finish when one person says "I have to go now."Often,the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse:"Someone's at the door.""Something is burning on the stove."The excuse might be real,or it might not.Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more,but it isn't polite to say that.The excuse is more polite,and it doesn't hurt the other person. Whether they are greeting each other,talking about an idea,or finishing a talk,people often don't say exactly what they are thinking. It's an important way that people try to be nice to each other,and it's part of the game of language. Question: One of the rules of the game of language is probably _ . - "Always say what you mean. - "Don't disagree with other people. - "Never say exactly what you are thinking. - "Be polite."
Ans: "Be polite."
