Peter and Linda use different forms of transportation to get to work. Peter likes to ride his bike, especially when the weather is nice. But if the weather is cold and rainy, he takes the bus. Linda thinks driving her car to the office is convenient. That way she can get to work quickly, no matter what the weather is like.

Linda: Hi, Peter. How was traffic this morning?

Peter: Traffic was really terrible today.

L: Why? Did something in particular happen?

P: The car in front of my bike wanted to turn left, but the driver did not use his turn signals and stopped suddenly. He almost caused an accident.

L: I'm glad there was no accident.

P: Me, too. People need to be polite when they drive.

L: What do you mean?

P: People should use their turn signals properly. That helps others know what you plan to do.

L: I do not know. Using turn signals doesn't seem like a big deal to me. Drivers can pay attention to what's happening on the road and respond quickly.

P: Showing respect for other drivers doesn't take much effort. For example, allowing someone to cut in front of you can make a big difference during the rush hour.

L: Allowing other cars to cut in front of you slows you down.

Madagascar is a wonderful place. About 90 percent of the animals and plants living there cannot be found elsewhere in the world. Scientists love it! There are some very unusual animals and plants in Madagascar's Tisngy de Bemaraha National park, but it's a dangerous place. The rocks of the Tisngy in the park are very sharp.

I arrived in Madagascar in March. At the end of the rainy season, I was with a scientist and a reporter. We wanted to find some new species. We set off to the park and after five days, we finally arrived there.

We worked enough in the Tisngy. The rocks cut our clothes and our shoes. It was dangerous, but we saw hundreds of animals and plants. We saw beautiful birds and unusual white lemurs with red eyes. They didn't have any problems on the Tsingy rocks ! Those birds had lived here for many years. This place, with its natural environment, was the perfect habitat for varieties of rare birds, most of which were unique to Madagascar.

The units people prefer for measurements vary across countries. Traditional units of distance such as the Persian parasang reflected how far a person could walk in a certain amount of time. In the UK, the yard was considered as the base unit of length. Ancient Greeks and Romans measured length with the foot, which was based on the length of the average adult man's foot. In modern times, the US redefined the foot as exactly 0.3048 meters in 1959 that is now known as the international foot.

The difference between the foot and the older international foot is less than two parts in a million, which was easy enough for most industries to adapt to. But some scientists believed it was not possible to change their equipment to adopt the new standard immediately. They made an exception and renamed the older foot the US survey foot. In the decades since some states in the US have started using the international foot for surveying. Some still use the US survey foot. That difference doesn't cause huge problems, but it does introduce some imprecision in a field, which aims to create accurate maps.

"Having two feet is great for people, but not so good for standards. " Writes Michael Dennis. He is a scientist working on the effort to do away with the US survey foot entirely. If the proposal works out as planned, the US will lose one foot in 2022 but gain the precision of a common foot across all industries.

36、According to the text, what was the base unit of length in the UK? ______

A．Meter.    B．Parasang.    C．Yard.    D．Foot.

37、Which country redefined the foot in 1959? ______

A．The US.    B．Iran.    C．Greece.    D．The UK.

38、Why could most industries easily accept the international foot? ______

A．It had many advantages.

B．It was very close to the older foot.

C．It was supported by scientists.

D．It was an exceptional unit of length.

39、What can we learn from the text? ______

A．Ancient Greeks measured length with the yard.

B．The older foot was renamed with women's feet the US survey foot.

C．The US industries are all using the same foot now.

D．Michael Dennis proposes to remove the US survey foot.

40、Where is the text probably from? ______

A．A novel.    B．A diary.    C．A poster.    D．A magazine.
