27、ingText B Pre-reading:1. Do you know how many types of automobiles all over the world?2. Do you know how to classify them?3. Discuss automobile brand in groups.Part Three ReadingAutomobile Types Car classification is subjective since many vehicles fall into multiple categories or do not fit well int
28、o any. Not all car types are common in all countries and names for the same vehicle can differ by region. Furthermore, some descriptions may be interpreted differently in different places. There are many types of automobiles all over the world, generally they can be classified into 3 groups. Within
29、each of these groups, there are many different classifications and they can be described as follows: Part Three Reading 1. Recreational and off-road vehicles Recreational vehicles are capable of traveling off-road for recreational purpose. Off-road vehicles like jeeps, SUVs are often used on roads i
30、n poor condition. 2. Passenger sedans and light commercial vehicles Passenger sedans are used by family households in everyday situations. They can carry between four to six people. This group also includes light commercial vehicles like small pickup vehicles used to carry small loads.Part Three Rea
31、ding A closed automobile that seats from four to six people is called a sedan. It may be a four-door or a two-door model. Two-door sedans sometimes have a rear lift-up door and a backseat that can be turned down to produce a flat storage, or hauling space. This sedan is called a hatchback. 4-Door Se
32、dans - Sedans are a good choice for most automobile shoppers. Most luxury vehicles are four-door sedans because theyre more comfortable than most other body styles. The smallest available in the US are sub-compact sedans like the Hyundai Accent and Chevrolet Metro. Slightly larger are compact models
33、 like the Honda Civic and Ford Focus. Mid-size sedans include the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Ford Taurus, and Chevrolet Lumina, while the Ford Crown Victoria and Buick LeSabre are considered large sedans. Part Three Reading 2-Door Coupes - Coupes are usually driven by single adults or childless cou
34、ples. Many of them have a hatchback instead of a trunk, to allow large items to be carried for short distances. The rear seats are difficult to access, as the front doors must be used.Part Three Reading Station Wagons - An active family will want to look at minivans, sport utility vehicles, or stati
35、on wagons. In the rest of the world, station wagons remain the first choice for active families. Many inexperienced drivers find out the hard way that SUVs dont corner like automobiles. Station wagons offer more stability, better gas mileage, lower insurance rates, and SUV-sized interiors. You wont
36、lose your all-wheel drive either, as Subaru, Volkswagen, Audi, Volvo, and Mercedes-Benz offer all-wheel drive on all of their wagons.Part Three Reading Convertibles - Most convertibles are sports cars, meaning two seats, high-performance engines and superior handling. However, GM, Ford, Mitsubishi,
37、and Chrysler offer a few normal convertibles, i.e. regular production coupes with four seats and convertible tops, such as the Chevrolet Cavalier, Pontiac Sunfire, Ford Mustang, Dodge Avenger, Chrysler Conquest and Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder. Luxury convertibles are available from BMW, Mercedes-Benz,
38、 Saab, and Volvo. Convertibles are great when the weathers perfect, but their drawbacks are obvious.Part Three Reading Sports Cars - Sports cars were originally European two-seat roadsters designed for both daily travel and week-end racing hobbyists. A few 1950s manufacturers (notably Jaguar and Alf
39、a-Romeo) put permanent tops on their roadsters, resulting in the sports coupe. The term sports-sedan is a more recent term to describe a four-door vehicle that handles like a sports coupe or roadster. Part Three Reading 3. Heavy vehicles Trucks belong to heavy vehicles. Generally, they are built for
40、 carrying heavy loads. Articulated vehicles and tipping vehicles fall into the type. Buses are another type of heavy vehicles. According to their length and design, buses can also be classified as small, medium, large and articulated buses. Agricultural vehicles are another type of heavy vehicles, l
41、ike tractors. There are many other special types of heavy vehicles such as street water sprinklers, ambulances and fire-engines (fire-trucks). They serve us in our daily life.

Part Three ReadingText C Pre-reading:1. How is the image of cars that are made in China?2. Is it necessary fo
63、r Chinese cars to enter the American car market?3. Do you think low price is the biggest attraction to car customers?Coming to AmericaThe Promises and Perils Chinese Vehicle Exports to The USAPart Three Reading One of the most popular discussion topics in the American auto industry today is “When wi
64、ll the Chinese start exporting in large quantities to the USA?” Almost immediately a second question follows: “Will they be successful in doing this?” The automotive press is full of reports relating to the first question, so this article will focus on the second one. We will draw on our own industr
65、y experience but also on material presented at the Elite Dealers Summit conference, put on by Bel-Air Partner in May in New York City, as that conference was dedicated to this very question. The first thing to realize, of course, is that China is already exporting vehicles: 360,000 in 2006, up sharp
66、ly from prior years.Part Three Reading But Chinese exports to date are mostly trucks and buses, rather than cars, and mostly sent to developing countries, as opposed to the Triad markets of Japan, North America and the EU. This makes sense, given that the lower specifications required in developing markets makes them easier for still-maturing Chinese OEMs to export to. However, we all know that Chinese OEMs are gearing up for a developed-world assault. We cant deny that Chinese cars will be comi
