A science fiction flying car looks like a normal car, but it is an aircraft that anybody can fly directly from any place to another without using roads or runways. Science fiction writers have written about flying cars for a long time. But now flying cars will soon fly out of the world of science fiction into our real world. And the dream of the science fiction writers will soon come true.

The first-known sky car is the FSC-1. The FSC-1 looks like an expensive sports car. You can drive the FSC-1 on the road like a normal car. If you touch a button, its wings and propeller(螺旋槳)fold out and then it can take off, fly and land as an airplane. The owners of the FSC-1 can choose if they want to drive or fly.

Another flying car or sky car is the Moller Skycar M400. Although you can't drive it on the roads, it is s mall and easy to fly and can take off and land like a helicopter(直升飛機(jī)). Urban Aeronautics' X-Hawk is another type of sky car. It is expected to be available for about $3 million.

Just like any new technology, flying cars have taken a long time to be developed. But some experts think the technology is far from what people imagine when they are sitting in traffic. It still needs to be improved.

科目:初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:遼寧省鞍山市2018-2019學(xué)年八年級(jí)上學(xué)期期末考試英語(yǔ)試卷 題型:多任務(wù)混合問(wèn)題

Three people sat around a table in a restaurant in Brazil. How much do you think each of (A)them tipped(給小費(fèi))?

The English man asked, "We usually tip 10 percent, right?" The American woman cried, "Oh, I plan to leave 20 percent!" And the Chinese asked, "What's a tip?"

(B) it is not a tradition to tip in China, tipping is important in Western countries. When traveling to Western countries, it is common to tip about 10 t0 15 percent of the bill(賬單).

Usually, people give tips to a waiter or waitress when they eat in a restaurant. The US is the NO.1 0n the list of the biggest restaurant tips, with waiters and waitresses expecting to get 10 to 20 percent of the bill.(C) So if you order $100 food, it's better to tip your waiter $15.

But why is this? Many waiters and waitresses get paid below the US minimum wage(最低工資) and work for tips to make up for that. Hotel cleaners and taxi drivers also work for tips.

Tipping is also popular in some Southeast Asian(亞洲的) countries, such as Indonesia and Thailand. However, in Japan and Korea there is a no- tipping culture and you may probably make the waiter angry if you try to tip him.

1.(A)處“them”指代什么?______________

2.在(B)處填上適當(dāng)?shù)倪B詞。______________

3.把(C)處劃線句子翻譯成漢語(yǔ)。______________
