Can Animals Be Made to Work for Us
Can animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs
that are now done by human beings.
They point out that at a circus (马戏团)，for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing quite
skillful things. Perhaps you have seen them on television or in a film. If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always
gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward. The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do a
number of simple jobs if they know they will get a reward for doing them..

Passage Two
Maintaining Your Automobile
The average North American driver travels 12,000 miles per year. In order to get the maxi-mum life out of a automobile, you
must provide it with proper maintenance. Proper maintenance can reduce air pollution, extend the value of the vehicle, save on fuel
bills, prevent breakdowns, and lead to better performance.
You should change the oil in all of your vehicles every 3,000 miles. Whenever you change the oil you can also change the oil
filter. Oil filters remove dirt and debris(废物，垃圾) from oil. As the car runs the oil filter will become clogged with excess debris from
the oil. In order for an engine to run, it also requires air. This air must6 be filtered to shop dirt from damaging the en- gine. Every time
you change the vehicle’s oil you should inspect the car for any unexpected wear and tear.
Due to the performance and sheer heat of combustion car engines become very hot. Anti- freeze（防冻剂，抗凝剂）is used as a
coolant for your vehicle system. This coolant should be replaced every two years. By doing this you extend the life of your radiator(散
热器). Other fluids that require maintenance at 60,000 miles include brake fluid, transmission fluid, and power steering fluid.
The use of properly inflated and well maintained tires is critical. The tire that holds the car to the road is your first line of safety.
Tires usually have a life expectancy (寿命) dictated by the manufacturer. It is recommended that you follow his life expectancy which
usually averages 3,000 miles.
A vehicle should be driven properly by not exerting extra stress. Extra stress can lead to overheating. Overheating is the prime
cause of premature life of belts, gaskets( 密封垫), hoses, and seals. If any of these parts become a problem it is a much better idea to
replace the part than to repair it.
21. On average, how many times a year should a year should a North American driver change their oil?( A )
A 4
