Many of the workers are immigrants.Electric bicycles, or “e-bikes,” look like regular bicycles, but

17、 they have electric-powered motors to assist riders in moving the 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 o

18、f e-bikes on streets and sidewalks as the reason (23)_ the ban. 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

19、of New Yorks delivery workers are Chinese immigrants in their 50s and 60s.

24、 as good as a more expensive meal, according to scientists.A new 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 foo

25、d tastes.Scientists at Cornell University in New York studied the 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

26、 the restaurant and to leave their names.The experiment 35 that the people who paid $8 for the food enjoyed their meal 11 percent more than those who ate the “cheaper” buffet.

27、. However, the scientists said that both groups ate around the 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

28、 much one eats, but a huge impact on how you 39 the experience.” 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

29、who eat in dim lighting consume 175 less calories (卡路里) than people who eat in brightly lit areas.III.

30、 context.How Climate Change Affects Airline FlightsHot weather has forcedat airports in the Southwest this summer. This flight-disturbing 41 is a warning sign. Climate change is projected to have far-reaching 42 including and shifting weather patterns causing . And there is evidence that it is begin

31、ning 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 beendesigned for the climatein which it all developed. In the aviation (航空) industry, airports and aircraft are

32、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 on theimpacts of climate change and extreme weatheron human society and natural ecosys

33、tems around the world, our research has quantified how extreme heat associated with ourwarming climate may affect 46 around the world. Weve found that major airports from New York to Dubai to Bangkok will see more frequent takeoff weight 47 in the coming decades due to increasingly common hot temper

34、atures, 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 happening withgreater frequency and intensitythan just a few decades ago. And if we 48 to reduce greenhouse gas emiss

35、ions significantly in the next few decades, the frequency and intensity of these extremes is projected toincrease dramatically.The 49 on aviation may be widespread. Many airports are built near sea level, putting themat risk of more frequent 50 as oceans rise. The frequency and intensity of violenta

36、ir movement may increasein some regions due tostrengthening high-altitude (高海拔的) winds. Stronger winds would force airlines and pilots tochange flight lengths and routings, potentially increasing fuel 51 .Many departments of the economy, including the aviation industry, have yet to seriously 52 the

37、effects of climate change. The sooner, the better: Both airport construction and aircraft design take decades, and have 53 effects. Todays 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 eff

38、ective and less costly adaptations can be. Those adaptations may even include innovative ways to dramatically reduce climate-altering emissions across the aviation industry, which would help reduce the problem while also 55 it.41.

42、 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 annual 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 th

43、e future. Yes, we have an annual vaccine (疫苗), and everyone qualified should get it without question. The reality, however, is that less 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 n

44、eed 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 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

45、by a truly destructive widespread disease in a long time. So as individuals, we let down our guard as our leaders quietly defund and destaff 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 i

46、n just weeks. Millions of people would be infected by the virus, and would die in the weeks and months following the initial outbreak. The 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

47、.S. commitment to the development of a universal flu vaccine. Six years later, the search for a universal vaccine remains seriously underfunded. 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 w

48、orkplace absence rates decline, we go back to business as usual.Leading scientists and public health officials have the capability to keep 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.

49、 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. 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. H

50、ospitals cannot meet the needs of patients during flu outbreaks. B. The leaders continue to drag the feet of the patients infected with flu. 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. Wha

51、t 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 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 wil

52、l cost more than dealing with flu.59. The author wrote the passage mainly to _. A. teach people more effective ways to fight against flu 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 ris
