Read the text and answer the questions.
Many countries now think that cars that burn fossil fuels should be replaced by electric cars. Electric cars don't burn gasoline in an engine, so they don't pollute the air. They use electricity stored on the car in batteries. Sometimes, 12 or 24 batteries, or more, are needed to power the car. Just like a remote-controlled car, an electric car has an electric motor that turns the wheels and a battery to run the motor. Electricity, the same energy that lights your lamps and runs your TV, is stored in batteries on an electric car.
The batteries can be like the ones you find in flashlights or in regular gasoline cars. To get the battery ready to roll, you have to charge it. This process isn't much different from the way you charge the portable devices you carry around every day: your cell phone, MP3 player, or digital camera. The difference is that you deal with a much bigger gadget that carries you around instead.
The electric car is usually plugged in at night. The car can plugged into a special charging unit even at houses. Some electric cars can be plugged right into a regular electrical wall outlet. Others need a larger outlet, like the kind that a store or a vacuum cleaner plugs into. The engineers are trying to make better batteries that hold more energy and last longer.
To overcome the problem of charging electric cars, hybrid cars are also available. .Hybrid cars combine the benefits of gasoline engines and electric motors. "They" can be designed to meet different goals, such as better fuel economy or more power.
1. According to the passage, electric cars ………… .
a) pollute the environment b) use electricity in the batteries

2. According to the passage which one is NOT true?
a) Hybrid cars use both fossil fuels and electricity.
b) 12 or 24 batteries are needed to power the car.
c) Electricity is stored in batteries on an electric car.
d) The electric car is usually plugged in at noon.
3. The word "they" in the last sentence refers to ………… .
a) gasoline engines b) hybrid cars
c) portable devices d) electric motors
True or False.
4. Many countries believe that they should use electric cars instead of cars burning fossil fuels. a) True b) False
5. The batteries of an electric car are different from the ones you find in flashlights. a) True b) False
6. Electric cars use both fossil fuel and electricity. a) True b) False
7. Pollute means …………………………………… .
