Bikes dont require gas. In terms of convenience, bikes can be easier to park and can help riders

19、get their daily exercise in.Companies everywhere are beginning to take the traditional bike and adapt it to peoples needs. Below are eco-friendly bikes to consider adding to your morning ride.1. BamboobikesCcycles produces Bamboo Bikes. The company sources bamboo and carbon fiber joints for their bi

20、ke frames. Bamboo is ideal for bikes because it can absorb significantly more shock than carbon fiber. It is also very lightweight compared to traditional bike materials, like steel. But bamboo is incredibly strong and can take on twice the compression force as steel.2. CowboyCow offers Cowboy, a bi

21、ke hides the battery in its frame under the saddle. The removable battery takes about two and half hours to charge and has a range of roughly 31 miles, but the best part is the app features. The Cowboy app gives travelers a real time dashboard (儀器板) to check out their speed and distance. Riders neve

22、r need to worry about getting lost since it has navigation and can pull up your route history from your ride states. This smart tech also gives riders updates about the bikes status. The Cowboy has a high tech locking system so the owner is the only one who can start up the bike.3. The Faraday Bicyc

23、leFaraday ebikes have a 250W motor, and the battery can be fully charged in less than 4 hours. Faraday recently partnered with the organization One Tree Planted to help reforest California after the state underwent serious damage from wildfires that destroyed thousands of acres of land in the area.

24、The company stepped up and donated $100 from every bike sold to plant 100 trees.4. The Donky BikeWilson, who works for Donky, created The Donky Bike, a practical cargo bike.

Tibet was a region I wanted to see and discover but its re

27、moteness and my inability to find the right time to go delayed my journey. After a few talks with my dad, we decided to take a pause in our lives for a few weeks in July 2019 to start an amazing adventure.We started our journey on a Saturday morning at the Guangzhou train station in south China. We

28、started the first leg of the journey admiring the mysterious mountains of south China. The next day it changed quite suddenly to the dry, waterless landscape of central-west China as we passed through Shanxi and Gansu provinces. That evening we arrived at Xining, Qinghai Province, where we got onto

29、the Xining-Lhasa train.We were greeted on the train with Tibetan yogurt. The train signs were also written in Tibetan, the beautiful handwriting matched its environment and people. The following afternoon we arrived in Lhasa. Lhasa, one of the highest-altitude cities in the world, is a gem hidden on

30、 the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. We started our tour of the jewel by exploring the palace and watching local people do morning prays and dances in the park. Overlooking the Jokhang Temple, we enjoyed an amazingly beautiful breathtaking view, just like we had been in the fairyland. Its a stunning (令人震驚的)

31、golden temple in the middle of old Lhasa, which we visited next before wandering in the old quarters and Barkhor Street in the evening. Barkhor Street is the ideal place to try local food and buy local products.The following day, we started our journey to the Qomolangma base camp by road from Lhasa.

32、 Along the way we stopped to admire the beautiful Yamdrok Lake, a huge freshwater lake that is one of the three largest sacred lakes (圣湖) in Tibet. Yaks (牦牛) in blankets and bells at the lake made for a picturesque impression of perfect countryside Tibet.About a week later, the highlight came in the

33、 afternoon when we arrived at the Qomolangma base camp. We were staying in a guesthouse just next to the base camp. After dropping off our backpacks, we headed straight outside to see the magnificent Mt Qomolangma. There it was, the top of the mountain peeking through the clouds, astonishing us with

34、 its unbelievable height. We enjoyed the mountain waves and saw the beautiful clouds separated until the sunset over the peak, feeling I would have regretted for the rest of my life if I hadnt made the journey.34 The author wanted to go to Tibet Autonomous Region because _.A. his father wanted him t

35、o travel thereB. his father thought it was worth visitingC. he was interested in the mysterious placeD. he wanted to go to the farthest place of China35. The author thought the most exciting part of the journey was visiting _.A. Jokhang TempleB. Barkhor StreetC. Yamdrok LakeD. Mt Qomolangma36. The u

36、nderlined word “gem” in the fourth paragraph means _.A. smart geniusB. precious stoneC. unique templeD. beautiful grassland37. The author wrote this passage to tell us _.A. beautiful views are worth the risk you takeB. if you have a dream, you should try to make it happenC. you can finally achieve y

37、our dream if you put your heart on itD. traveling ten thousand miles is better than reading ten thousand booksCClimate Change Requires the Worlds AttentionIn 2013, a lot of people were shocked by a news photo of a dead polar bear that was found on Norways Arctic island of Svalbard. According to the

38、scientists who found its dead body all that remained of the polar bear was “skin and bones”. An expert who has studied polar bears for many years said that from the position of its dead body, the bear appeared to have starved and died. Experts claimed that low sea-ice levels caused by climate change

39、 meant the bear could not hunt seals as before, so it had to travel greater distances in order to find food. This alarming case showed how the increase in temperature had an impact on Earths ecology.Then what is causing the increase in the global average surface temperature? Climate scientists often

40、 mention a key climate process called the “greenhouse effect”, which has two common meanings: the “natural” greenhouse effect and the “man-made” greenhouse effect. The “natural” greenhouse effect, which helps keep the earth warm enough for people, plants and animals to live on, refers to the fact th

41、at heat from the sun enters the atmosphere and warms Earths surface as short-wave radiation. The heat is released back into space at longer wave lengths. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as methane (沼氣) and carbon dioxide, trap some of the heat, keeping Earths climate warm and habitable. Wit

42、hout this process, Earth could not sustain life. However, the man-made greenhouse effect has now become a big problem. When people produce huge amounts of extra greenhouse gases by burning fossil fuels, more heat energy is trapped in the atmosphere and causes Earths surface temperature to rise quick

43、ly.There is strong and comprehensive evidence that the rise in temperature has led to an increase in extreme weather and natural disasters worldwide, not only causing serious damage, but also costing human lives. Climate scientists have warned that if we do not take appropriate actions, this warming

44、 trend will probably continue and there will be a higher price to pay. In fact, news reports are frequently broadcast about extreme rainstorms and heat waves causing deaths and economic losses.Continued greenhouse gas emissions (排放) will result in further warming and long-lasting changes to the glob

45、al climate. This requires the attention of people all over the world. Governments need to consider making policies and taking appropriate actions and measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. We as individuals can also reduce our “carbon footprint” by restricting the amount of carbon dioxide our

46、lifestyles produce. It is our responsibility to seize every opportunity to educate everyone about global warming, along with its causes and impacts, because it is all of us that share this planet. So what will you do to help?38. The dead polar bear was mentioned in the first paragraph to _?A. show p

47、olar bears are endangeredB. raise the problem of global warmingC. raise the awareness of protecting animalsD. warn people of the damage caused by travelling39. What is causing the rise of Earths surface temperature?A. Methane.B. Carbon dioxide.C. Heat from the sun.D. Man-made heat energy.40. The ris

48、e of Earths surface temperature may result in _.A. higher cost of livingB. better growth of plantsC. more extreme weather eventsD. speeding of animal reproduction41. The last paragraph mainly tells us that _.A. policies are important to stop carbon dioxide emissionsB. the long-lasting effects of cli

49、mate change is very seriousC. everyone should take action to reduce greenhouse gas emissionsD. it is the governments duty to control the process of global warmingDA number of studies show that sports and other physical activities can contribute to the development of self-esteem (a feeling of pride i

50、n oneself). For example, Canadian scientists found that sixth-grade students who were more physically active had considerably higher levels of self-esteem. A study in Switzerland found that teenagers who took part in sports clubs were healthier, including being better socially adjusted, feeling less

51、 anxious, and generally being happier about their lives. Similar findings were reported in a study of Latino students, where participation in school sport was found to be greatly associated with self-esteem.There seems little doubt that part of the potency (潛能) of sports lies in their social setting

52、. There are a lot of facts showing the importance of social connectedness (關(guān)聯(lián)性) for healthy child and teenager development, and sports offer a popular and engaging setting for social interactions. Involvement in team sports has been positively associated with social acceptance and a sense of belongi

53、ng, especially where such involvement is characterized by positive coaching, progressive skill development, and peer support.But, the social setting of sports can exclude as well as include. There is now evidence that boys and girls experiences of sports can be very different, and this can affect th

54、e contribution they can make to the self-esteem of players. Peer acceptance seems to be an important factor in determining the relationship between sport participation and self-esteem, and girls can be particularly sensitive to negative judgments. And studies have found that many girly boys and girl

55、s benefit most from non-competitive physical activities.So, a note of caution ought to be sounded in case sports are considered to be a cure. Much of the literature on the most positive psychological (心理的) outcomes associated with childhood and youth sports stress the absolute importance of positive

56、 experiences. It will surprise no one that bullying, excluding or abuse experiences will harm, rather than support the development of self-esteem, and well-being in general. Sadly, it will also not be a shock to learn that many childrens introductions to sports are far from improving the quality of

57、life.The great developmental psychologist Jean Piaget argued that the foundations of self-esteem were laid between the ages of about 6 and 11 years of age. Importantly, this is also the time when children are most likely to be introduced to sports. We should know the importance of positive early spo

58、rting experiences for the development of both self-esteem and on-going participation in sports and other physical activities. Teachers, coaches, and parents have a responsibility to ensure that these experiences catch as many children as possible, and for this to happen they need to remember the pri

59、nciples of child development: Children are not mini-adults.Problems arise when adults forget these principles, and kid themselves into thinking that they are coaching future Olympians or Super stars. Unluckily, evidence suggests that talented children are most likely to stand out when they are given

60、 time to develop, to play, and to remain children.Children are not miniature adults, and their enjoyment of sports (and their self-esteem) can suffer when adults forget this!42 Studies in Switzerland and Latino showed teenagers who often join in sports _.A. build self-esteem earlierB. have more good
