it,which is normal for a Year 11 class.In the juniorschool there are about 30 students in a class.In the senior high school we have lots of subjects to choose from,like maths,physics,chemistry,biology,history,German,law,geography,software design,graphic arts and media studies.(Differentschools sometime have different optional subjects.)English is a must for everyone and we have to doleast three other subjects in Year 11 and 12.At the end of Year 12 we sit for a public exam called theHigh School Certificate.As well as school subjects,most of us do other activities

Lyon,France.Most in theautomobile industry think self-driving vehicles will be on the road by 2020 or earlier.Driverless cars will first be huddled with human-driven cars.But the first places where they willbecome dominant(统治的)are highly populated urban areas.Many advanced cities are already reducing therole of human-driven cars.Driverless cars will quicken that process and will bring us enormous benefits.Driverless cars will reduce accidents by around 90 percent.Thats bigthe annual deaths on theworlds roads are about 1.2 million a year.Pollution and carbon emissions will drop,because

reduced.Traditional carmakers are especiallyscared.The cars of the future might be made by tech companies such as Apple,Baidu and Google.ImagineGermany,where automobile making is the largest industry.Dramatic changes are coming,and driverless cars could arrive by 2020.But governments have barelybegun thinking about it.Only 6 percent of the biggest US cities have taken them into their

cars.D.Driverless cars will make road accidents a past thing.CDerek Rabclo is not the only surfer to conquer Hawaii s famous Pipeline big wave break,but whileall others use their sight to do it,this

easily cheated.“If you first hide the reward into onebowl,then in another and in another,they get lost after a while.So their performance is going down,and they are getting poor in solving new problems.”Researchers hope the study will not only help understanding of learning ability and memory changesin dogs,but also the aging of humans.Senior Researcher EnikoKubinyi adds that the aging dogs sufferfrom the same problems as humans who are aging.“Among very old dogs,up to two thirds of them showsigns of dementia(痴呆),and this dementia is really very similar to that of humans,so we could
