4、er in nature. Mountain biking typically involves riding up and down steep slopes, between trees , and over rocks.

Im not someone who has many secrets because I m a terrible liar. But there is one huge secret that I kept for years-I failed my driving test. I had never
9、failed a test before, and had never even come close. Driving made me anxious, but my parents told me I had to. They signed me up for driving lessons. I had gotten perfect score for my written permit exam, but getting behind the wheel was a different story.But when October 30th rolled around, my prid
10、e set in. I wanted to be like everyone else at my school, showing off the brand new license they d gotten. Looking back on that special day, I cant remember if I was nervous. What I do remember is starting the test, pausing at a stop sign after a few seconds, and being asked by the instructor to ove
11、r. I had received an auto-fail since my pause was indeed a pause and not a real stop. I wasnt upset that I was leaving without a license, but I was scared everyone would know that I had failed. So when I got to class, I told everyone I didnt want to take the test to my birthday.One Friday a month la
12、ter, I went to the test spot again and passed. Later that night I drove for the first time myself, which brought to me an amazing feeling Ive never experienced-but still, I couldnt imagine ever telling anyone the truth. So I didnt . It was until midway through college that I came clean. It turned ou
13、t plenty of my college friends had failed too! And I gathered enough courage to speak the fact out. Yes, I had also failed.Now I realize failure and imperfection are two things everyone has to experience, without which one couldnt make a true man.24. What can we learn about Matthew?A. He was a slow

CSelf-driving cars have been backed by the hope that they will save lives by getting involved in fewer crashes with fewer injuries and deaths than human-driven cars. But so far, most
17、 comparisons between human drivers and automated vehicles have been unfair. Crash statistics for human-driven cars are gathered from all sorts of driving situations, and on all types of roads. However, most of the data on self-driving cars safety have been recorded often in good weather and on highw
18、ays, where the most important tasks are staying in the cars own lane and not getting too close to the vehicle-ahead. Automated cars are good at those tasks, but so are humans.It is true that self-driving cars dont get tired, angry, frustrated or drunk .But neither can they yet react to uncertain sit
19、uations with the same skill or anticipation of an attentive human driver, nor do they possess the foresight to avoid potential perils. They largely drive from moment to moment, rather than think ahead to possible events literally down the road.To a self-driving car, a bus full of people might appear
20、 quite similar to an uninhabited corn field. Indeed, deciding what action to take in an emergency is difficult for humans, but drivers have sacrificed themselves for the greater good of others. An automated systems limited understanding of the world means it will almost never evaluate ( 评估) a situat
21、ion the same way a human would. And machines cant be programmed in advance to handle every imaginable set of events.Some people may argue that the promise of simply reducing the number of injuries and deaths is enough to support driverless cars. But experience from aviation (航空) shows that as new au
22、tomated systems are introduced, there is often an increase in the rate of disasters.Therefore, comparisons between humans and automated vehicles have to be performed carefully. To fairly evaluate driverless cars on how well they fulfill their promise of improved safety, its important to ensure the d
23、ata being presented actually provide a true comparison. After all, choosing to replace humans with automation has more effects than simply a one-for-one exchange.28.

Dangers. B. Self-driving cars. C.Pedestrians. D. Human-driven cars.30. In which aspect can self- driving cars b

C. A brochure. D. A magazine. DWe know that reading is good for children . Now,a new study suggests that
26、 just being around books has its benefits . A team of researchers in Australia finds that growing up with a large library at home improves literacy (读写能力) , number-sense,and even technological skills in later life . It appeared in the journal Social Science Research.The researchers were exploring th
27、e advantages of scholarly culture . They were interested in a curious observation that some call the radiation effect. Radiation effect is a situation where children grow up around books,but they dont read books . But somehow books benefit them, even though they dont read them as much as their paren

The survey assessed the literacy, numeracy (计算能力), and technological competency of more than 160 , 000 adults from
29、31 countries. And it included a question about how many books participants had in their homes during adolescence. What we were able to make clear was that people growing up around books had better literacy, numeracy and digital problem-solving skills than people who had fewer books growing up but ha
30、d similar education levels, similar jobs, and even similar adult habits in terms of reading or working at various numeracy-improving activities . In fact, teens who only made it through high school but were raised in a bookish environment did as well in adulthood as college graduates who grew up in
31、a house without books. Now, how might mere exposure lead to intellectual improvement ?“If we grow up in a house,in a home where parents enjoy books, where books are given as birthday presents and valued, this is something that becomes a part of our identity and gives us this lifelong urge to always
32、come close to books and read more than we would.”So keep shelves piled with books. Your kids will not only be grateful, theyll be more likely to be able to spell “grateful “correctly as well.32.
