In November of 2007, NBC Universal launched its first official Green Week． Throughout the week, NBC Universal presented over 150 hours of environmentally themed content across multiple platforms．
Now, NBC Universal is proud to present Green Week 2009． With a new theme and message of "Green Your Routine," Here at NBC and NB C．com we celebrate our talent in the "The More You Know" PSA campaign, presenting green-themed tips in several of our daytime life, among several other features here on the "Green Your Routine" site．
Fashion & Beauty
Throw a clothes swap party! Dying for that sweater your friend wore the other day? Well, maybe she’ll trade for that old T-shirt you have． Here’s a website that helps you organize a swap party （www．swapstyle．com）, or just plan your own!
Go natural with organic make-up． Applying unnatural products directly on your skin wasn’t exactly what nature intended． Try switching to a line of organic make-up and cosmetics for a different way to bring out your natural beauty．
Home
Drop a brick in your toilet tank! Literally! According to the EPA, flushing（冲洗）makes up 30 percent of a household’s water use （about three to six gallons per flush）． By placing a brick in your toilet tank, you can help to conserve the amount of water used during each flush．
Work
Print smarter． Printing and copying can be one of the most costly operations in any office． To save on ink and paper costs, print double-sided and try to fit more than one page on a sheet． More printing tips can be found here: lifehacker．com
Turn off your computer． Do you leave your computer on overnight? If so, you’re using up a good amount of electricity． When you can, try turning off your computer and the power strip it’s connected to． If you can’t, at least shut off your monitor．
Transportation
Organize a carpool． There are many benefits to carpooling（拼车）． You save on gas, reduce wear and tear on your car, and you get to ride in the HOV lanes． Get connected with your neighbors and co-workers to start sharing rides and check out this website for more tips: www．erideshare．com．
Lose the car, get a bike． If you live close to where you work, try taking a bike instead of driving． You’ll keep in shape and save on gas!

Motorists over the age of 75 face compulsory tests of their eyesight and ability to drive under proposals being considered by ministers．
The biggest overhaul of motoring law in a generation could also lead to all drivers having to give assurances（保证） of their fitness to get behind the wheel every 10 years．
Other changes under consideration include issuing（发放） daylight driving licenses for motorists with night blindness, together with stricter checks on all drivers whose medical condition brought a threat to other road users．
It is understood that the proposals will be part of a review of the law governing the medical fitness of drivers that will be announced publicly by the summer．
The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency is dealing with a rising number of motorists who are concerned that they have conditions---from failing eyesight to epilepsy---that could affect their driving．
In 2006, the DVLA dealt with 600,000 motorists whose physical ability to drive needed to be recertified（重新认证）, a 20 per cent rise on the previous year． With an ageing population, the biggest challenge is dealing with the rising number of elderly motorists． By 2021, there will be an estimated three million drivers over the age of 70 on Britain’s roads．
Drivers must renew their licenses at the age of 70 and every three years thereafter． The applicant is legally required to tell the DVLA of any conditions that could weaken their ability behind the wheel．
Ministers have ruled out a compulsory maximum age for driving but will instead rely on tightening up the checks on motorists over the age of 75． The most likely option would be tests to ensure motorists were fit to drive． They would include an eyesight test and a cognitive（认知） test that would prove a driver’s ability to react to road signs, driving conditions, pedestrians and vehicles．
However, checks are likely to be tightened at all ages． The strictest controls are expected to be imposed（强制） on motorists of any age who have had a heart attack or stroke． They could have to produce a doctor’s approval to resume（重新得到） driving． Anyone making a false declaration would be guilty of a criminal offence． Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
| A．The new motoring law will come into effect by the summer． |
| B．Drivers over the age of 75 must renew their licenses every three years． |
| C．Doctors will decide whether one can get their driving licenses． |
| D．Drivers at all ages will be expected to provide their medical condition． |
What is the biggest challenge to the traffic safety in Britain according to the writer?
| A．Ageing population． |
| B．Increasing number of cars． |
| C．Increasing number of elderly motorists． |
| D．Driving conditions． |
The underlined word “overhaul” in Paragraph 2 means _______．
| A．change | B．consideration | C．concern | D．challenge |
What can be learned from the passage?
| A．There will be more and more aged drivers in Britain． |
| B．Anyone can get a driving license as long as he/she is in good health． |
| C．Health tends to decline as one gets old． |
| D．It will be guilty to make a false declaration． |
