Nowadays, around 65% of the worlds population drives on the right of the road, while the rest is used to driving on the left.Though no one knows the exact reasons, it seems likely that people in ancient times travelled on the left of the road. Roman coins show pictures of horsemen passing on each others right. And right-hand people generally got on a horse from the animals left. Obviously, its safer to do this at the left side of the road, and it makes sense(行得通)for the horse to be ridden on the left.A change happened in the late 1700s. When Napoleon(拿破仑)conquered(攻占)nations, he forced them to travel on the right side of the road, which spread left-hand driving throughout Europe. However, Britain still stuck with the right-hand driving rule and countries which were part of the British Empire were made to follow. This is why India, Australia and the former British colonies(前英国殖民地)in Africa continue to drive on the left. One exception(例外)is Egypt, as that country was defeated(打败)by Napoleon before becoming part of the British Empire.Some countries changed sides until modern times. Sweden only moved to driving on the right in 1967 and Iceland changed the following year. Ghana changed sides in 1974. On September 7, 2009, Samoa became the third country ever to change from left-to-right-hand driving for the reason that it made it easier to import(进口) cheap cars from right-hand driving Japan, Australia and New Zealand.So if you want to travel to another country or go on business, make sure you know whether it is left-or right-hand driving to avoid unnecessary troubles.40 . Which picture shows the correct driving in Britain?ABCD41 . Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?ASweden changed to drive on the right in 1974.BPeople drive on the left side of the road in Egypt.CPeople have known the exact reasons for driving on the left.DNapoleon helped with the spread of left-hand driving.42 . What is the writers purpose for writing this passage?ATo explain the advantages of the two ways of driving.BTo introduce the development of the two ways of driving.CTo complain about the change of the two ways of driving.DTo compare the differences of the two ways of driving.On April Fools Day, its always fun to get someone a surprise with hoaxes.

Though the following day Burger King announced that the Left-handed Whopper was a hoax,thousands of customers had gone into restaurants to order the new hamburgers.Story 2：Instant Color TV1962：In 1962 there was only one TV channel in Sweden, and it played in black and white. The TV stations technical expert (技术专家)，Kjell Stensson, appeared on the news to announce that thanks to a new skill, people could change their black and white TV sets into color reception (接收).
