A re
10、cent university study found that current electric cars could be used for 87 per cent of daily car journeys in the US. That figure could rise to 98 per cent by 2020.One hurdle to the widespread adoption of electric cars has been range anxiety- drivers concerns about running out of juice on a journey.
11、 While petrol stations are conveniently located across national road systems, the necessary network of electric charging stations is still being developed. That said, charging points are becoming increasingly common throughout the USA.Attitudes towards electric vehicles have changed quite considerab
12、ly over the last few years. Not that long ago, electric cars were met with distrust, and their large price tags drove customers away. Thanks to improvements in battery capacity, recharging times, performance and price, the current generation of electric cars are starting to persuade critics. Plug-in
13、 cars will soon give internal combustion engine models a run for their money.As well as advancements on the road, electric vehicles are taking to the seas and skies. Electric boats are among the oldest methods of electric travel, having enjoyed several decades of popularity from the late 19th to the
14、 early 20th century before petrol-powered outboard motors took over. Now, the global drive for renewable energy sources is bringing electric boats back. Steps towards electric air travel are also being made, with Airbus and NASA among the organizations developing and testing battery powered planes.
15、The experiments could soon make commercial electric flight a reality.Electric vehicles do not produce any emissions. Were the US to act on the studys findings and replace 87 per cent of its cars with electric vehicles, it would reduce the national demand for petrol by 61 per cent. However, because o
16、f the production processes and the generation of electricity required to charge these vehicles, they cannot claim to be completely emission-free. That said, as many countries continue to increase their use of renewable energy sources, electric vehicles will become even cleaner.21. Which is the best
17、title for this passage?A. My Dream CarB. History of Electric CarsC. Problems with Petrol CarsD. Driving into the Future22. As used in Paragraph 2, the underlined word “hurdle” means _A. aimB. barrier C. consequence D. step23. What is the function of Paragraph 4?A. To introduce the history of electri
18、c travel.B. To explain why the world needs more electric cars.C. To show why more people have interest in electric cars.D. To describe different ways electric vehicles can be used.BParents who help their children with homework may actually be bringing down their school grades. Other forms of parenta
19、l involvement, including volunteering at school and observing a child s class, also fail to help, according to the most recent study on the topic. The findings challenge a key principle of modern parenting where schools expect them to act as partners in their children s education. Previous generatio
20、ns concentrated on getting children to school on time, fed, dressed and ready to learn. Kaith Robinson, the author of the study, said, “I really don t know if the public is ready for this but there are some ways parents can be involved in their kids education that leads to decrease in their academic
21、(学校的)performance. One of the things that was consistently negative(负面的)was parents help with homework. ”Robinson suggested that may be because parents themselves struggle to understand the task. ”They may either not remember the material their kids are studying now, or in some cases never learnt it
22、themselves, but they re still offering advice. ”Robinson assessed parental involvement performance and found one of the most damaging things a parent could do was to punish their children for poor marks. In general, about 20% of parental involvement was positive, about 45% negative. Common sense sug
23、gests it was a good thing for parents to get involved because “children with good academic success do have involved parents”, admitted Robinson. But he argued that this did not prove parental involvement was the root cause of that success. “A big surprise was that Asian-American parents whose kids a
24、re doing so well in school hardly involved. They took a more reasonable approach, conveying to their children how success at school could improve their lives. ”24. The underlined expression “parental involvement” in Paragraph 1 probably means_. A. parents expectation on children s health B. parents
25、taking part in children s educationC. parents control over children s life D. parents plan for children s future25. Which of the followings is the major finding of Kaith Robinson s study?A. Modern parents raise children in a more scientific way. B. Punishing kids for bad marks is mentally damaging.
26、C. Parental involvement is not so beneficial as expected. D. Parents are not able to help with children s homework. 26. The example of Asian-American parents shows that parents should_. . A. help children realize the importance of schoolingB. set a specific life goal for their childrenC. spend more
27、time improving their own livesD. take a more active part in school managementCWhat exactly is intelligence? There arent any easy answers. Despite the progress that has been made in genetics and psychology, human intelligence has remained one of the most controversial areas of modern science，until no
28、w, that is, for the discovery of a gene(基因) linked to intelligence has made the experts think again.Robert Plomin of the Institute of Psychiatry in London and his colleagues in the US have been looking into genetic make-up. From their research they have discovered that a slightly different gene is m
29、ore common in those with a high IQ. Plomin analyzed DNA from two groups of 51 children aged between 6 and 15. What he found was that the first group had an IQ of 136, putting them in the top 5% of the population, while the other group had an average IQ of 103. An analysis of their genes showed that
30、32% of children in the higher group had the gene in question, while only 16% in the second group did. However, there is a lot more research to be done, and Plomin himself is cautious at this early stage. He suggests that there are probably many genes that contribute to intelligence, rather than just
31、 one.Several studies have shown a strong link between IQ and career success, although some psychologists remain unconvinced about this. Professor Michael Rowe, who has written a book called Genius Explained, is one of these. “The people with the highest IQs are not usually the ones who do best in th
32、eir careers.”Many psychologists now believe that when it comes to intelligence, IQ isnt everything. Many alternative views have been put forward recently. One example is the idea of multiple intelligences, which was developed in the 1980s by Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner. This offers a much br
33、oader view than the IQ theory, including creativity and communication skills as relevant factors(因素) in intelligence.Tony Buzan, brain expert and author of Master your Memory, is enthusiastic about this belief, arguing that true geniuses(天才) do indeed appear to combine high levels of each type of in
34、telligence. He lists Alexander the Great, Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein as examples. At the same time, Buzan believes that everyone can develop their intelligence, only if they take the trouble to exercise their brain. Perhaps theres hope for us all!27. What is the topic of the passage?A. The re
35、lationship between genes and intelligence.B. IQ benefits a lot from high intelligence.C. How to develop intelligence.D. What makes intelligence.28. Why does the author use data in Paragraph 2?A. To make a suggestion.B. To draw a conclusion.C. To prove an idea. D. To give an example.29. What can we l

Michael Rowe approves of a strong link between IQ and career.D. Tony Buzan agrees geniuses exercise brain to improve intelligence.30. What does the underli
