In America, just as in Europe, men usually open doors for women, and women always walk ahead of men into a room or a restaurant, unless the men have to be ahead of the ladies to choose the table, to open the door of a car or do some other things like the above. On the street, men almost always walk or cross the street on the closer side of the ladies to the traffic. But if a man walks with two ladies he should walk between them. If a host or hostess or both of them drive to get their guest for dinner, the guest should sit at the front seat and leave the back seat though there are no people sitting on it.

There is not enough oil in the world now. As time goes by, it becomes less and less. So what are we going to do when oil runs out? Maybe we need the horses again.
In the Second World War, some people didn’t use gas made from petroleum(石油) in their cars. They made gas from wood and plants instead. The car didn’t go fast, but this was better than nothing. However, in the future, we can’t cut down all our trees to make gas.
Besides different types of gas, we can also use electricity to run our cars, but first we must make electricity! Some countries have coal and make electricity with that, but we might not always have coal, either. Other countries have big, strong rivers, and they can use the power of water to turn turbines(涡轮机) and make electricity easily and cheaply.
We are also able to get power from the ocean tides(海潮). When the tide comes in , the water turns the turbines and when it goes out, it turns them again.
1.Is there enough oil in the world now?
2.When might people have to go back to use horses?
3.What did some people use to make gas in the Second World War?
4.What are you able to get from the ocean tides?
