After the final examination, my brother and I planned to give us a treat at a restaurant. While waited for our food, we emptied all our small changes from our wallets on the table and counted it out. Soon, our food arrived with note. It reads, “Your lunch has been paid for. Have a lovely meal!” It was a wonderful surprise as nothing like that had ever been happened to us. I remembered an old man sitting nearby. He should have thought we didn’t have enough money to the bill. We looked around to thank him, and he was not there. His kind meant so much to us.

Virginia is set to begin enforcing the toughest drunken-driving punishment, one that will require thousands of first-time offenders—whether they were highly drunk or slightly over the limit – to install (安装) in their cars blood-alcohol testing devices that can lock the ignition. The devices work like this－A driver must blow into a blood alcohol device linked to the car’s ignition. If the result is higher than the legal limit, the car will not start. The device also requires random “rolling retests” once the driver is on the road.
Virginia’s current law requires only repeat drunken-driving offenders or those with a blood alcohol level of 0.15 or higher to have an ignition interlock device in their car.
The new law, which takes effect in July, will roughly increase the number of people required to use ignition interlock devices four times, and offenders will have to pay about $ 480 for a typical six-month installation.
The measure has caused a debate between groups battling drunken driving and those representing offenders. Such groups as Mothers Against Drunk Driving and the Washington Regional Alcohol Program say that Virginia’s 274 alcohol-related road deaths and more than 5,500 injuries in 2010 remained unacceptably high despite years of cracking down on drunken driving. Ignition interlock devices, they say, reduce repeat offenses. But some public defenders and lawyers argue that the devices are too severe a punishment for offenders at the legal blood alcohol limit of 0.08, and that the court system will be burdened by more cases going to trial and lower-income drivers will be affected by the fees.
Del. Sal R. laquinto, who sponsored the bill, had a simple reply for concerns about the costs of the interlock devices: “How much does a life cost?” “Blowing into a tube for six months, you will remember that, ” Iaquinto said, “ and you are not likely to offend again. ”
1.The ignition probably refers to the part in a car where ______.
A．the alarm goes off B．the car is fueled
C．the key is placed D．the engine starts
2.Who are required to install the blood-alcohol devices according to the current law?
A．The repeat drunken-driving offenders.
B．The first time drunken-driving offenders.
C．Drivers whose blood alcohol level is below 0.15.
D．The drivers who are not able to pay offence fees.
3.Some groups support the new law because ______.
A．the government can be financed to build roads
B．some traffic deaths and injuries may be avoided
C．lower-income drivers will not afford to drink again
D．the court system is forced to work more effectively
4.The debate aroused by the measure suggests that ______.
A．justice has long arms
B．punishment is the key to all
C．no law is absolutely perfect
D．prevention is better than cure
Barcodes(条形码) aren’t given much thought by the majority of consumers, but these codes were fairly recently applied in a working fashion in 1970.
A small food store owner decided one day that keeping records of the inventory(存货) of his stock and the associated prices were an extremely laborious process, and so, in 1948, he contacted The Drexel Institute of Technology in a bid to work towards a solution. Bernard Sliver rose to the challenge and set out to study the problem and began working on a solution involving an automatic way of keeping track of items that had been sold. Sliver and a group of students from the institute realized their answer in the form of ultraviolet light (紫外线), ink and a scanner.
The system worked initially, but possessed some negatives. It was incredibly costly to carry out on a large scale and the system was also unstable. If the invention was to become commonplace（寻常的事）in grocery stores, these two problems had to be solved.
The patent (专利) for the bar code system was filed by Sliver and one of his students, Woodland. The patent was not granted immediately; in fact, it took three years for the patent agency to grant their invention patent for the barcode, occurring on 7th October, 1952.
Despite the patent being issued, the system was still not welcomed by the majority of store owners. It was not until 1966 that the system began moving its way into more and more grocery stores. This system was soon criticized, as there was no central mechanism for controlling uniformly（统一地）coded items. In 1970, Logicom developed the Universal Grocery Products Identification code( UGOIC), soon shortened to Universal Identification Number (UPC). It was Marsh’s superstore, in Troy, which was the very first store to install this complex barcode reading system, and its popularity has soared(升温) ever since, and is obviously now commonplace in all types of stores worldwide.

2.Which of the following was NOT a drawback of Sliver’s system?
A．It was expensive to be applied on a large scale.
B．It was a laborious process.
C．The system was not stable.
D．It lacked a central mechanism.
3.The popularity of the barcode rose quickly after .
A．1948 B．1952 C．1966 D．1970
4.What is the purpose of the text?
A．To tell people that failure is the mother of success.
B．To praise scientists’ efforts in making people’s lives easier.
C．To describe shop owners’ opinions of barcodes.
D．To provide information about the development of barcodes.
