16、k Hurts Food Delivery WorkersA ban on electric 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 t
17、he bike forward. Most e-bikes reach speeds of 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 the reason (23)_ the ban.
18、 Last year, the city announced severe measures (24)_ (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 5
19、0s and 60s. Their job requires them to work quickly 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.

24、w 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 their 32 of how food tastes.Scientists at Cornell University in New York studied t
25、he 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 tasted, the quality of the restaurant and to leave their names.The experiment 35 that
26、 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 and felt that they 36 . However, the scientists said that both groups ate around the
27、same quantity of food in total, according to the study 37 at the Experimental Biology meeting this week.Brian Wansink, a professor of 38 behaviour at the university, said: “We were fascinated to find that pricing has little impact on how much one eats, but a huge impact on how you 39 the experience.
28、” 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 university showed that people who eat in dim lighting consume 175 less calories (卡路里) than pe

30、has forced dozens of commercial flights to be canceled at airports in the Southwest 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 de
31、clines in agricultural production. And there is evidence that it is beginning to affect the takeoff 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
32、;in which it all developed. In the aviation (航空) industry, airports and aircraft are designed for the weather 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 o
33、n the impacts of climate change and extreme weather on human society and natural ecosystems around the 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
34、 Bangkok will see more frequent takeoff weight 47 in the coming decades due to increasingly common hot temperatures, which 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 happenin
35、g with greater frequency and intensity than just a few decades ago. And if we 48 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions significantly 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 air
36、ports are built near sea level, putting them at risk of more frequent 50 as oceans rise. The frequency and intensity of violent air movement may increase in some regions due to strengthening high-altitude (高海拔的) winds. Stronger winds would force airlines and pilots to
37、change flight lengths and routings, potentially increasing fuel 51 .Many departments of the economy, including the aviation industry, have yet to seriously 52 the effects of climate change. The sooner, the better: Both airport construction and aircraft design take decades, and have 53 effects. Today
38、s 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 more effective and less costly adaptations can be. Those adaptations may even include innovative ways to dramatically reduce climate-altering emi

42、hree passages. 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 that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Flu is killing us. The usual response to the annu
43、al 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 future. Yes, we have an annual vaccine (疫苗), and everyone qualified should get it without question. The reality, however, is that less
44、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 need 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
45、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 by a truly destructive widespread disease in a long time. So as individuals, we let down our guard as our leaders quietly defund and dest
46、aff 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 in just weeks. Millions of people would be infected by the virus, and would die in the weeks and months following the initial outbreak. Th
47、e 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.S. commitment to the development of a universal flu vaccine. Six years later, the search for a universal vaccine remains seriously under
48、funded. The simple reason lies in our collective satisfaction. As soon as headlines about the flu are gone, hospitals are emptied of flu patients, and school and workplace absence rates decline, we go back to business as usual.Leading scientists and public health officials have the capability to kee
49、p 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.56. The problem of the current flu vaccines is that _. A. they are not available every year B. most Americans are not allowed to get them C.
50、 not everyone is qualified for themD. many people still catch flu after getting them57. What does the author mean by “continued foot dragging” in Paragraph 4? A. Hospitals cannot meet the needs of patients during flu outbreaks. B. The leaders continue to drag the feet of the patients infected with f
51、lu. C. Individuals arent alert enough to the underinvestment in flu prevention. D. Flu will certainly become a severe widespread disease in the near future.58. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Science is currently not so developed as to keep us safer from flu. B. The death rate from flu is
52、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 dealing with flu.59. The author wrote the passage mainly to _. A. teach people more effective ways to fight against flu
53、B. call on people to take flu outbreaks far more seriously C. encourage medical scientists to develop more flu vaccines D. urge the government to publicize the risks of widespread flu (B)How to get your tax refundAt the storeGet a Global Blue Tax Free Form.
