20、dards, I was convinced that if I wanted to be loved, I needed to offer more, doing anything to please everyone around. I entered adulthood thinking I wasnt “enough”an idea that was seeded not only by the fact that “skinny”is celebrated, but also by the language associated with accounts of losing wei

21、ghtself improvement, discipline all virtues. Being fat quickly categorizes you as lazy and undisciplined.

28、smic(宇宙的) dark ages, a mysterious era hiding early marks of stars and galaxies. Our universe was not always filled with stars. About 380，000 years after the big bang, the universe cooled, and the first atoms of hydrogen formed. Gigantic hydrogen clouds soon filled the universe. But for a few hundred

29、 million years, everything remained dark, without stars. Then came the cosmic dawn: the first stars flickered, galaxies came into existence and slowly the universes largescale structure took shape. The seeds of this structure must have been present in the darkage hydrogen clouds, but the era has bee

30、n impossible to probe using optical(光学的) telescopesthere was no light. And although this hydrogen produced longwavelength(or lowfrequency) radio emissions，radio telescopes on Earth have found it nearly impossible to detect them. Our atmosphere either blocks or disturbs these faint signals; those tha

Now multiple space agencies plan lunar missions carrying radiowavedetecting instrumentssome within the next three yearsand astronomers dreams are set

36、on the moon. D Improvements to energy efficiency, such as LED lights, are seen by many authorities as a top priority for cutting carbon emissions. Yet a growing body of research suggests that a rebound effect could wipe out more than half of the savings from energy efficiency improvements, making th

37、e goals of the Paris Agreement on climate change even harder to hit. A team led by Paul Brockway at the University of Leeds, UK, looked at the existing 33 studies on the impact of the rebound effect. First comes the direct rebound: for instance，when someone buys a more efficient car, they may take a

38、dvantage of that by driving it further. Then comes the indirect rebound: fuel savings leave the owner with more money to spend elsewhere in the economy, consuming energy. Although the 33 studies used different methods to model the rebound effect, they produced very consistent estimates of its impact

39、, leading the team to conclude that the effect wipes out, on average, 63 percent of the anticipated energy savings. “Were not saying energy efficiency doesnt work. What were saying is rebound needs to be taken more seriously， ” says Brockway. The idea that increased efficiency may not deliver the ho

40、pedfor savings dates back to the Jevons paradox(悖论), named after the economist William Stanley Jevons, who, in 1865，observed that more efficient coal use led to more demand for coal. If the rebound effect does prove to be as big as suggested, it means future global energy demand will be higher than

41、expected and the world will need far more wind and solar power and carboncapture technology than is currently being planned for. But that doesnt mean nothing can be done to limit the rebound effect. One answer is to double down on energy efficiency and do twice as much to achieve the same effect. ()

C.Afamily saves money by using energysaving devices. D. Alady spends savings from her fuel efficient car on more clothes. ()33. How did Paul Brockw
