　　The sea wind was blowing heavily and the ship was carrying more than 230 people from Jakarta’s port of Muara Angke to Tidung, a resort island in the Kepulauan Seribu chain, when it caught fire, officials said. Most of the passengers were Indonesians celebrating the New Year’s holiday, according to local media reports.

　　A search involving around 10 ships was underway to find those who were missing, the National Disaster Mitigation Agency said in a statement.

　　Witnesses told MetroTV that the fire broke out about 15 minutes after the ship left Muara Angke.

　　The cause of the fire was not immediately clear. Some passengers told local media that they first saw smoke coming from the ferry’s engine.

　　“Most of the victims were found near the exit door at the front part of the ship. They may have attempted to escape the fire,” said Hendra Sudirman, acting head of Jakarta’s search and rescue office.

　　Madrid’s city hall on Wednesday announced that it had ordered half of most private cars off the roads to fight pollution, a first in Spain.

　　From Thursday, “Vehicles with even-number (偶数) registration plates will be allowed to drive around on even-number days and cars with odd-number (奇数) registration plates on odd-number days,” it said in a statement.

　　The measure will be reevaluated on a daily basis depending on pollution levels.

　　It is activated when levels of harmful nitrogen dioxide in the atmosphere go above 200 micrograms per cubic meter in at least two measuring stations for two days running, and if the air is unlikely to clear immediately.

　　There are exceptions to the ban, such as for mopeds (摩托自行车), hybrid (油电混合动力) cars, those carrying three people or more or used by disabled people. Buses, taxis and emergency vehicles are also exempt.

　　“It’s not about traffic restrictions but about the important issue of public health,” said Deputy Mayor Marta Higueras.

　　“Lots of people suffer from breathing problems and are very affected by pollution.”

　　With 3.5 million residents and some 1.8 million cars, Madrid often suffers from bad bouts of pollution.

　　The move to ban half the cars from the roads is level three out of four antipollution measures.

　　Level four also bans taxis from the city, except those using hybrid cars.

　　Inigo Henriquez de Luna, PP spokesman in Madrid’s local parliament, slammed it as “ideological” and said authorities should do more to encourage residents to avoid using their cars rather than punish them.

　　The move follows a similar decision by French capital Paris earlier this month.

　　9. According to the ban, we can know that _________________.

　　A. all the vehicles are banned from the roads in Madrid

　　B. even-numbered cars are allowed to drive on odd-number days

　　C. odd-number cars are not allowed to drive on even-number days

　　D. there are no exceptions to the ban according to the passage

　　10. We can learn from the passage that the purpose of the ban is ____________.

　　A. to control pollution B. to prevent car accidents

　　C. to save energy D. to relieve traffic jams

　　11. It can be concluded from the passage that _____________.

　　A. Affected by pollution, many people in Madrid suffer from breathing problems

　　B. The measure to ban half of private cars will be carried out every day

　　C. Fighting against pollution in Madrid is the first in Europe

　　D. About two people in Madrid own a car, causing the pollution so serious

　　12. What’s the main idea of the passage?

　　A. An anti-pollution measure is being taken in Madrid for people’s health.

　　B. Madrid is doing a research to know about the serious level of its air pollution.

　　C. Madrid is trying to restrict the number of cars that its residents can buy.

　　D. Public vehicles are not ordered off the roads in the anti-pollution activity in Madrid.

　　Dear Tom,

　　Glad to hear from you. You asked me in your last letter about my plan for the summer vacation. I’m sorry that I didn’t reply because I was busy preparing for the coming Entrance Examination, which is very important for me. As a result, I had no choice but to completely focus on my study. I believe that if you were me, you would make the same choice.

　　During the summer vacation, I will do lots of things. First of all, it’s a good time to relax. I will spend some time traveling, visiting some places of interest and meeting some friends. Besides, I will go to see my grandparents and do some housework for them. Last but not least, maybe I will work as a volunteer to help the poor children in my hometown.

　　It’s my plan for the summer vacation. Looking forward to your reply.

　　Yours,

　　Li Hua
