his or her second year of high school is required to take a class in driver"s education. However, unlike
other courses, it is not given during the regular school year. Instead it is a summer course.
The course is divided up into two parts: class time for learning laws and regulations, and driving time
to practice driving. Class time is not unlike any other class. The students study the basic traffic laws from
a text to pass the written driving test that is given to anyone who wants to get a driver"s license.
Driving time is a chance for the students to get behind the wheel and practice starting steering, backing up, parking, switching lanes, turning corners, and all the other maneuvers (操作) required to drive a car.
Each student is required to drive a total of six hours. The students are divided up into groups of four. The
students and the instructor go out driving for two hour blocks of time. Thus, each student gets half an hour driving time per outing. The instructor and "driver" sit in the front seats and the other three students sit in
the back.
After the student has passed the driver"s education course and reached the appropriate age to drive
(this age differs in every state but in most cases the person must be 16 years old),they can go to a
designated (指定的) state office to take their driver"s test, which is made up of an eye examination, a
written test, and a road test. The person must pass all three tests in order to be given a driver"s license.
If the person did well in his or her driver"s education class, he or she will pass the test with flying colors
and get a driver"s license.

Phillips arrived in Sydney with 11 ships and 1,024 passengers (including 770 prisoners) from Britain.
Today there are 2.5 million people in Sydney. It is the biggest city in Australia, and one of the most
beautiful cities in the world.
There are over 20 fine beaches close to Sydney. Its warm summer climate and cool winter have made
it a favorite city for immigrants (移民) from overseas. There are three things that made Sydney famous-its beautiful harbor, the Sydney Harbor Bridge,and the Sydney Opera House.
But there are many more interesting things in Sydney: beautiful shops and restaurants, for example, rows
of interesting old houses built everywhere in the 19th century. Summer or winter, day or night, Sydney is
an outdoor city.
Some Americans think it is very British. Some British visitors think it is like America. There is some
truth in both these opinions, because Sydney takes from both the Old World-Europe, and the New
World-America, and makes it into something that is neither British nor American but truly Australian.

living in, or it can be very 2 . Some stories are told 3 they were true. Real people 4 live in a normal
world do real things; in other words, the stories are about people just like us doing what we do. Other
stories, such as the Harry Potter books, are not 5 . They are characters and creatures that are very
different from us and do things that would be 6 for us.
7 there is more to books and writing than this. If we think about it, even realistic writing is only
imagined. How can we tell the difference between what is real and what is not real? For example, when
we read about Harry Potter, we 8 seem to learn something about the real world. And when Harry
studies magic at Hogwarts, he also learns more about his real life than 9 . Reading, like writing, is an
action. It is a way _10_ living. When we read or write something ,we do much more than simple look
at words on a page. We use our 11 -which is real-and our imagination-which is real in a different
way-to make the words come to life in our minds.
Both realism and fantasy(幻想) 12 the imagination and the “magic” of reading and writing to make
us think. When we read 13 realistic, we have to imagine that the people we are reading about are just
like us, even though we 14 that we are real and they are 15 . It sounds strange, but it works. When
we read, we fill in missing information and 16 about the causes and effects of what a character does.
We help the writer by pretending that 17 we read is like real life. In a way, we are writing the book,
too.
Most of us probably don’t think about what is going on in our 18 when we are reading. We pick
up a book and lose 19 in a good story, eager to find out what will happen next. Knowing how we feel
20 we read can help us become better readers, and it will help us discover more about the real magic
of books.
