In 2019, 80 million cars were built while the population increased by 78 million. And the mass production of those cars was responsible for 4% of global carbon dio
36、xide (CO2) emissions (排放),which is bigger than aviation (航空) and thats before you even fuel them up. The study authors construct a mathematical model, and residents choose driving their car or taking public transport on the basis of the time it takes to do the trip. “All individuals decide their com
37、muting (通勤) mode trying to reduce their costs, but the result is the overall worst-case situation, where the average commuting time is longer and all people decide to use their car.” write the authors of the study.

38、t even more in private cars, which then encourages more private vehicle use and results in even more traffic jams. Possible solutions have to be actively encouraged, with more travel options, plus local shops and services. Also, increasing the costs could be achieved by reducing the space devoted to
39、 cars, with more public transport lanes, wider sidewalks, and pedestrian roads, for example. Dr. Humberto, one author of the study said: “If our goal is to have more livable and developed cities then we must take part of this land and give it to other modes of transportation: walking, cycling and pu

41、emission is largely affected by car production.D. Global CO2 emission is more serious than expected.34. What result do study authors get from their model?A. It is hard for people to keep a balance.B. It takes more time to drive cars to work.C. More cars can be used to save time.D. Driving cars can k
42、eep the cost down.35. What can be a possible way to reduce car use?A. Building parking lots.B. Saving land for cars.C. Producing fewer cars.D. Riding a bus to work.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever heard of a Cucamelon? If not, youre missing out on the

You can dig up these roots and store them in a cool, dry place and re-pot them at the start of the next growing season. 39 It will be a big harvest! By the way, you can use Cucamelons in
46、 food dishes or in drinks. The thought sounds pretty excellent! 40 Your neighbors might even feel inspired to grow Cucamelons themselves!A. This means you can eat fruit all the year round.B. However, you wont find these seeds in a store.C. Theyll need a lot of water and a little support with growing
