13、iation, so if you do crash, youll hit the ground quite gently! Its a very relaxing sport as youre mostly sitting down.

14、?There are lots of schools, mainly based inland by appropriate hills or mountains, and there are also schools on the coast near spectacular cliffs.

None of us pictured an icy blizzard (暴风雪) on our California vacation, but one hour into the drive, the first snowflake fell. My eyes lit up. Id missed sno
20、w. Seeing it land on a prickly cactus made my tears well up. How I longed for cold Minnesota, my hometown. As the altitude rose, the storm got fierce. It wasnt long before we had no choice but to pull over. As our car slid to a stop, I looked into the distance. A line of cars as long as the Mississi
21、ppi River were lined up. Just then, a car came from behind, suddenly changing the direction to avoid hitting our car. The driver, an old man, slammed on the brakes and his car drifted across the path. It didnt take us too long to realize his car was awfully near the edge of the mountain and slowly c
22、reeping more and more towards the side of the cliff. Suddenly, 10 people who were sitting in their cars leapt out. From the car window, I watched an inspiring scene. Four people took the chains that protected their tires off their cars and put them on the old mans tires. One person shoveled the snow
23、 out from his tires and tried to break the ice with his boot. Just as the old mans car and all his belongings were about to be lost off the edge of the cliff, people stepped up and let their kind hearts override the snowstorm. Though it was minus 30 degrees centigrade, my heart was as warm as ever.

26、erative.D. Enthusiastic and ambitious.CPsychologists tell us our self-image defines what we believe we can and cannot do. Each of us over the years has built up belief about ourselves. Unconsciously, our pictures of who we are have been formed by past experiences. Our successes and failures, what ot
27、hers have told us and what we think people believe about us all help form impressions of what we think we are. Because self-image is so important in our growth, it is important to examine our concepts of self in order to reach our full potential.Changing our self-image is possible. Some psychologist
28、s suggest we begin to change our self-image by mentally picturing ourselves performing well at some task. Since we presently react to things based on our present images, its suggested that we replace those with better ones. In many experiments, people were asked to sit quietly for a few minutes each
29、 day and imagine themselves doing well. For instance, subjects would sit and imagine themselves throwing darts at a bulls-eye on a target. Over a period of weeks, their dart game improved. This has been done with people who wanted to play chess better, throw a ball more accurately, increase their sa
30、lesmanship or musical talents, and improve many other skills. In most cases, remarkable improvement is made. The point of changing self-image is not to develop an image of ourselves that is not real. To try to become something we really arent is just as wrong as living the unrealistic, inferior imag
31、e we may have. The aim is to find the real self, to bring our mental images of ourselves in line with our true potential. However, it is generally accepted among psychologists that most of us fail to do justice to ourselves. Were usually better than we think we are.Another important part of changing
32、 self-image is to not think about past mistakes. Dont let failures do harm. Our errors or humiliation over mistakes are necessary steps in learning. It is all right to make mistakes. But when they have taught us what we did wrong, we should forget them and not dwell on them. Sometimes we keep rememb
33、ering our failures or mistakes and feel guilty or embarrassed about them. We let them take over, and then we develop a fear. It is important to have realistic expectations of ourselves. Some of our dissatisfaction might come from expecting too much of ourselves. If we demand constant perfection in e
34、verything we do, we can be disappointed and our poor self-image will continue. If our goal is to reach perfection, we are doomed from the start. 27. Which situation agrees with the idea of the passage? A. To outshine his colleagues, Joe sets an idealistic goal. B. To get along with her classmates, D
35、oris always humbles herself. C. To become a star player, Alex repeatedly plays back his faults in his mind.D. To win a speech contest, Tina visualizes herself speaking more confidently. 28. What is the purpose of Paragraph 3? A. To confirm the effect of changing self-image. B. To clarify the princip
36、le of changing self-image. C. To propose a new view on changing self-image. D. To stress the importance of changing self-image. 29. According to the author, how should we regard our past mistakes?A. They are part of our growth. B. They are warnings for future. C. They are tools for overcoming fear.D
37、. They are barriers to our development.30. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A. We Are What We Do B. Be the Best We Can Be C. We Are What We Think We Are D. What We Are Decides What We ThinkDWhen it comes to lowering our carbon emissions (排放), it seems that nothing is sim
38、ple. Electric vehicles (EVs) act as an example of potential greenwash. “They seem very attractive at first sight,” writes The Next Web in a report. “When we look more closely, it becomes clear that they have a substantial carbon footprint.”The rare earth metals and costly minerals included as essent
39、ial ingredients in EV batteries are not renewable. Whats more, their extraction (提炼) is often anything but green. So the question is: is it worth it? Just how much emission reduction can EVs justify? Luckily, a life cycle assessment has been done to give us some answers.“A life cycle analysis of emi
40、ssions considers three phases,” writes The Next Web. “the manufacturing phase, the use phase, and the recycling phase.” In the manufacturing phase, the battery is to blame. “Emissions from manufacturing EV batteries were estimated to be 3.2 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2), 1/4 of those from an electric
41、 car, 13 tons of CO2. Those were bigger than emissions from gas cars, 10.5 tons of CO2.” If the vehicle life is assumed to be 150,000 kilometers, emissions from the manufacturing phase of an electric car are higher than gas cars.”In the use phase, the source of electricity the consumer is using to p
42、ower their car comes into play in a major way. “To understand how the emissions of electric car vary with a countrys renewable electricity share, consider Australia and New Zealand,” continues the report. “In 2018, Australias share of renewables in electricity was about 21%. In contrast, the number
43、in New Zealands was about 84%. Electric car emissions in Australia and New Zealand are estimated at about 170g and 25g of CO2 per km respectively. As a consumer, our car is only as green as our countrys energy mix. Finally, in the recycling phase, we look at vehicle dismantling (拆除), vehicle recycli
44、ng, battery recycling, and material recovery. “The estimated emissions in this phase, based on a study, are about 1.8 tons for a gas car and 2.4 tons for an electric car. This difference is mostly due to the emissions from battery recycling, which is 0.7 tons,” shows in the report. “While electric c
45、ars cause more greenhouse gas emissions than gas cars do, its important to note the recycled batteries can be used in subsequent batteries. This could have significant emissions reduction benefits in the future. For complete life cycle emissions, the study shows that EV emissions are 18% lower than
46、gas cars.” So heres the takeaway: EVs are greener. Maybe theyre not as green as we thought. Theres certainly room for improvement. But the real challenge lies in speeding the global energy transition toward greener energy-production. 31. Why is a life cycle analysis of emissions made? A. To illustra
47、te the advantages of EVs. B. To show how gas cars outperform EVs.C. To weigh the environmental impact of EVs. D. To examine the energy sources of gas cars and EVs.32.
