Grammar and VocabularySection AElectric Bike Ban in New York Hurts Food Delivery WorkersA ban on electri

16、c bicycles in New York City is hurting delivery workers who depend on them to earn a living. Many of the workers are immigrants.Electric bicycles, or “e-bikes,” look like regular bicycles, but they have electric-powered motors to assist riders in moving the bike forward. Most e-bikes reach speeds of

17、 about 32 kilometers an hour, but some can go much (21)_ (fast).(22)_ it is legal to own e-bikes in New York City, it is not legal to operate them. Officials there consider the dangerous use of e-bikes on streets and sidewalks as reason (23)_ the ban. Last year, the city announced severe measures (2

18、4)_ (mean) to hold e-bike riders and restaurants that employ the riders responsible.E-bike operators can now be fined $500 for breaking the ban. The police (25)_ also seize the bikes.Many of New Yorks delivery workers are Chinese immigrants in their 50s and 60s. Their job requires them to work quick

19、ly and for long hours (26)_ (earn) enough money to live on.Delivery worker Deqing Lian said it is important to perform quality work (27)_ their job also depends on tips.

23、ill not taste as good as a more expensive meal, according to scientists.A new study has found that restaurant _31_ who pay more for their meals think the food is tastier than if it is offered for a smaller price. The experts think that people tend to associate cost with quality and this changes thei

24、r _32_ of how food tastes.Scientists at Cornell University in New York studied the eating habits of 139 people enjoying an Italian buffet(自助餐) in a restaurant. The price of the food was set by the _33_ at either $4 or $8 for the all-you-can-eat meal. Customers were asked to _34_ how good the food ta

25、sted, the quality of the restaurant and to leave their names.The experiment _35_ that the people who paid $8 for the food enjoyed their meal 11 percent more than those who ate the “cheaper” buffet. Interestingly those that paid for the $4 buffet said they felt guiltier about loading up their plates

26、and felt that they _36_. However, the scientists said that both groups ate around the same quantity of food in total, according to the study _37_ at the Experimental Biology meeting this week.Brian Wansink, a professor of _38_ behavior at the university, said: “We were fascinated to find that pricin

27、g has little impact on how much one eats, but a huge impact on how you _39_ the experience.” He thinks that people enjoyed their food more as they associated cost with quality and that small changes to a restaurant can change how tasty people find their meals.In a(n) _40_ study, scientists from the

28、university showed that people who eat in dim lighting consume 175 less calories(卡路里) than people who eat in brightly lit areas.III. Reading ComprehensionSection AHow Climate Change Affects Airline FlightsHot weather has forced dozens of commercial flights to be canceled at airports in the Southwest

29、this summer. This flight-disturbing _41_ is a warning sign. Climate change is projected to have far-reaching _42_ -including sea level rise flooding cities and shifting weather patterns causing long-term declines in agricultural production. And there is evidence that it is beginning to affect the ta

30、keoff performance of commercial aircraft, with potential effects on airline _43_.National and global transportation systems and the economic activity they support have been designed for the climate in which it all developed. In the aviation(航空) industry, airports and aircraft are designed for the we

31、ather conditions experienced _44_. Because the climate is changing, even fundamental elements like airports and key economic parts like air transportation may need to be _45_.As scientists focused on the impacts of climate change and extreme weather on human society and natural ecosystems around the

32、 world, our research has quantified how extreme heat associated with our warming climate may affect _46_ around the world. Weve found that major airports from New York to Dubai to Bangkok will see more frequent takeoff weight _47_ in the coming decades due to increasingly common hot temperatures, wh

33、ich can help reduce the aircrafts weight so as to lower its required takeoff speed.There is obvious evidence that extreme events such as heat waves and coastal flooding are happening with greater frequency and intensity than just a few decades ago. And if we _48_ to reduce greenhouse gas emissions s

34、ignificantly in the next few decades, the frequency and intensity of these extremes is projected to increase dramatically.The _49_ on aviation may be widespread. Many airports are built near sea level, putting them at risk of more frequent _50_ as oceans rise. The frequency and intensity of violent

35、air movement may increase in some regions due to strengthening high-altitude(高海拔的) wind. Stronger winds would force airlines and pilots to change flight lengths and routings, potentially increasing fuel _51_.Many departments of the economy, including the aviation industry, have yet to seriously _52_

36、 the effects of climate change. The sooner, the better: Both airport construction and aircraft design take decades, and have _53_ effects. Todays newest planes may well be flying in 40 or 50 years, and their _54_ are being designed now. The earlier climate impacts are understood and appreciated, the

37、 more effective and less costly adaptation can be. Those adaptations may even include innovative ways to dramatically reduce climate-altering emissions across the aviation industry, which would help reduce the problem while also _55_ it.41.A. schemeB. heatC. shiftD. mess42.A. contributionsB. confusi

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one tha

41、t fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.( A ) Flu is killing us. The usual response to the annual flu is not enough to fight against the risks we currently face, let alone prepare us for an even deadlier widespread flu that most experts agree will come in the

42、 future. Yes, we have an annual vaccine(疫苗), and everyone qualified should get it without question. The reality , however, is that less than half Americans get the flu vaccines. And the flu vaccines we have are only 60% effective in the best years and 10% effective in the worst years. We urgently ne

43、ed a much more effective flu vaccine. In the U.S alone, seasonal flu can cause up to 36 million infections, three-quarters of a million hospitalizations and 56,000 deaths. We are not investing the resources needed to protect ourselves, our loved ones and our communities. Why not? We havent been hit

44、by a truly destructive widespread disease in a long time. So as individuals, we let down our guard as our leaders quietly defund and distaff the services we need to protect us. The risk of continued foot dragging is huge. In a severe widespread disease, the U.S health care system could be defeated i

45、n just weeks. Millions of people would be infected by the virus, and would die in the weeks and months following the initial outbreak. The cost of preventing epidemics(流行病) is roughly a tenth of what it costs to cope with them when they hit. In 2012, a call was issued for an annual billion-dollar U.

46、S. commitment to the development of a universal flu vaccine. Six years later, the search for a universal vaccine remained seriously underfunded. The simple reason lies in our collective satisfaction. As soon as headlines about the flu are going hospitals are emptied of flu patients, and school and w

47、orkplace absence rates declines, we go back to business as usual. Leading scientists and public health officials have the capability to keep us much safer from flu. They need your quick and decisive support to succeed. Your action today may be a matter of life and death for you and your loved ones.5

48、6. The problem of the current flu vaccines is that _.A. they are not available every year B. most Americans are not allowed to get themC. not everyone is qualified for them D. many people still catch flu after getting them57. What does the author mean by “continued foot dragging” in Paragraph 4?A. H

49、ospitals cannot meet the needs of patients during flu outbreaks.B. The leaders continue to drag the feet of the patients infected with fluC. Individuals arent alert enough to the underinvestment in flu prevention.D. Flu will certainly become a severe widespread disease in near future.58. What can be

50、 inferred from the passage?A. Science is currently not so developed as to keep us safer from flu.B. The death from flu is much higher than that from other diseases.C. The general public is partially to blame for the neglect of flu prevention.D. Developing a universal flu vaccine will cost more than

51、dealing with flu.59. The author wrote the passage mainly to _-.A. teach people more effective ways to fight against fluB. call on people to take flu outbreaks far more seriously C. encourage medical scientists to develop more flu vaccinesD. urge the government to publicize the risks of widespread fl
