Passage Two
Although no one is certain why migration occurs，there are several theories.One theory isbased upon the premise that prehistoric birds of the northen Hemisphere were forced southDur-ing the Ice Age，when glaciers covered large parts of Europe，Asia，and North America.As theglaciers melted，the birds came back to their homelands，spent the summer，and then went southagain as the ice advanced in winter.In time，the migration became a habit，and now，althoughthe glaciers haveDisappeared，the habit continues.
Another theory proposes that the ancestral home of all modem birds was the tropics.Whenthe region became overpopulated，many species were crowded north.During the summer，therewas plenty of food，but During the winter，scarcity forced them to retum to the tropics.
A more recent theory，known as photoperiodism，suggests a relationship between increasingday light and the stimulation of certain glands in the birds’bodies that may prepare them for mi—gration.One scientist has been able to cause midwinter migrations by exposing birds to artificialperiods of Daylight.He has concluded that changes occur in the bodies of birdsDue to seasonalchanges in the length of Day light.

A.stopped migrating
B.continued migrating

Passage Three
It is 2 a.m.You took too long over Dinner，the coast is still a couple of hundred kilometersaway and it is essential to get that early morning ferry.And your car radiator pipe has split.Attimes like that，theDocuments making up your insurance kit lying in the front of your ear seemuseless.The nearest phone was passed three kilometers back，and it would be reasonable to ex.pect someDelay in getting breakdown assistance when you have finally phoned through.
If on the other hand，you've got a spare in the car，five minutes'work should 8ee you on your wayagain.The majority of breakdownsDo involve minor and easily changed parts.A few basic tools and theright mix of spal'es are well worth the space they take up.But to sort out which ones are most likely tobe needed，and to buy them，咖be expensive.

It is much better，however，to reduce the risk of breakdowns by seeing that your car is prop—erly serviced before setting out.Particularly whenDriving at high speed over longDistances in hotweather.
