When faced with huge problems such as air pollution or energy shortages, where do you start? T

11、aoyuan-based 3 Gogoro believes you start with a scooter（踏板车）. Proof of concept In 2015, Gogoro broke onto the scene by releasing an electric scooter called the Smart-scooter. Unlike most electric scooters. This one wouldnt need to be plugged in to recharge. Instead, users would stop by GoStations to

12、 exchange drained batteries for fully charged ones. Gogoro was taking a risk. If people were not happy with the system of changing batteries, the whole project could fail. They didnt need to worry, though. Only one year later Gogoro sold their 10,000th Smart-scooter! Setting the bar Fast forward to

13、2019 and the release of the Series 3 Smart-scooter. Gogoro scooters are as popular and revolutionary as ever. Their bright colors are chosen by Beatrice Santiccioli, a famous color designer who helped shape major brands like Apple, Nike and Swatch. In addition to the scooters bright colors, plenty o

14、f cool accessories（配件）are available so you can make your scooter your own. But most important of all, Gogoro continues to pave the way toward a future of responsible energy consumption. Looking forward Multiple cities and countries have committed to making their transportation all-electric in the co

15、ming years, and Gogoro is helping make it possible. Ordered a package? Companies like DHL and Taiwan Post now have fleets of Smart-scooters to make deliveries. Need a ride? Unlock a Gogoro in Berlin, Paris or Madrid, thanks to scooter sharing services. The Smart-scooters is definitely creative, but

16、theres more. At Gogoro, I think the essential thing is that we want to change how people use energy. And the Smart-scooters is only the beginning. says Horace Luke, Gogoro co-founder and CEO. This is where the GoStation comes in. 21. Compared with other electric scooters, the Smart-scooter_. A. can

17、recharge itself in Gostations in big cities B. only needs to change batteries in Gostations C. wouldnt need to be recharged at all in life D. can be recharged by its users in Gostations 22. Gogoro scooters are popular and revolutionary mainly because_. A. their colors are chosen by a famous color de

18、signer B. their colors are different from those of others C. it is a good way for people to consume energy D. it can help us solve the problem of energy short 23. What can we conclude from the passage? A. More GoStations may appear in more and more cities. 4 B. GoStations will soon entirely take the

19、 place of traditional stations. C. People need not go to GoStations especially during peak hours. D. More big cities will appear throughout the world in the future. B This season, the bushfires in Australia have burned more than 12.35 million acres of land. At least 25 people have been killed and 20

20、00 homes destroyed. According to the BBC, this is the most casualties（伤亡）from wildfires in the country since 2009. The University of Sydney estimates that 480 million animals have died in South Wales alone. Zeke Hausfather, an energy systems analyst and climate researcher at Berkeley Earth, said war

21、mer temperatures and extreme weather have made Australia more susceptible to fires and increased the length of the fire season. “The drier conditions combined with record high temperatures in 2019 created main conditions for the disastrous fires. Australias fires were worsened by the combination of

22、those two. 2019 was the perfect storm for being the warmest year on record for Australia and the driest year on record for Australia,” Hausfather added on Friday. Kevin Trenberth, a senior scientist at the US National Center for Atmospheric Research, said warmer ocean temperatures also contributed t

23、o more variable weather around the world. Trenberth believes that global warming contributed to energy imbalances and hot spots in the oceans, which can create a wave in the atmosphere that locks weather patterns in places, causing longer rain events in Indonesia, for example, and at the same time c

24、ontributing to drought in Australia. He said that once an area experiences drought conditions for two months or more, it increases the risk of fires catching and spreading. Those changing weather patterns due to global warming make drought events longer. Climate experts stress that climate change is

25、 not the only factor in the severity of wildfires. How land is managed can also impact the amount of fuel available for fires. Practices like controlled burns and other factors can impact the risk to people and property, such as warning systems and the type of development in a given area. Changing t

26、hose policies has great potential to limit future damage from wildfires along with changes to how fire management resources are dispatched (派遣). 24. What are the numbers about in paragraph 1? A. The causes of Australian fires. B. The consequences of Australian fires. C. The damaged areas of Australi

27、an fires. D. The property destruction of Australian fires. 25. Which of the following best explains “susceptible to” in the second paragraph? A. Very quickly to adapt to. B. Very seriously to focus on. C. Very likely to be influenced by. D. Very easily to be protected against. 26. What can we infer

28、from Trenberths research? 5 A. Global warming is the root cause of the bushfires. B. Longer dry weather contributes to global warming. C. Warmer ocean temperatures promote fires spreading. D. The imbalanced energy leads to the temperature rising. 27. What does the author intend to do in the last par

29、agraph? A. To stress the effects of Australia fires. B. To show the methods for controlling burns. C. To predict the seriousness of Australia fires. D. To provide some advice about reducing damage. C An experience that is becoming increasingly common around the world is the sorting of waste. It may

30、seem like a trivial activity, but it has slowly moved into the center of conversation on the future of business and sustainable development. Waste sorting is a complex phenomenon that can be an important step toward a global circular economy. Maybe it even will be something we will look back on as o

31、ne of the first steps toward an ecological society. But sorting of waste could also mean participating in an activity that undermines sustainable development by allowing unsustainable companies to use recycling as a way to pretend they are sustainable. When Royal Dutch Shell, a British-Dutch oil and

32、 gas company, wanted to dump an oil rig in the ocean in 1995, many people in Europe had just started to separate glass bottles and newspapers. The companys plan was viewed as a sign of arrogance. The incident led to an important meeting, after which many companies started including environmental fac

33、tors in their risk assessment. The situation is different today. It is no longer clear if the kind of waste sorting done in Western nations is part of the problem or the solution. There are areas where the sorting of waste is working reasonably well, for example the glass and metal industries. But a

34、t a time when we are looking at a transformative system change and global sustainability, there is a need to fundamentally rethink waste sorting. In the coming decades, the world needs to eliminate the use of fossil fuels, become more resource-efficient, lift billions out of poverty and ensure great

35、er equity(公正). In order to ensure this, we need a resource-efficient circular economy, and waste sorting can play a key role. But that would be a very different kind of waste sorting. People around the world have begun to realize that much of the waste they sort is not integrated in sustainable mate

36、rial flows, but instead shipped to poor countries, where it is not 6 handled in an appropriate manner. As more countries refuse to become dumping grounds for the unsustainable lifestyles of rich countries, a healthy discussion about global sustainability has begun to emerge. Out of the waste that is

37、 recycled, much of it is turned into low-value goods in a way that does not result in a radically reduced use of natural resources. Instead, recycling initiatives are used by companies selling low-quality goods that are not made to last. A waste sorting system for the 21st century should build on th

38、e opportunities that digitalization provides and allow citizens to track what is happening to the waste they are sorting and also provide information about the companies they have purchased products from. It should also require companies to show how resource-efficient their solutions are, allowing c

39、onsumers to compare options. It is time to understand that Western recycling systems, to a large extent, are used by unsustainable companies that produce everything from fast fashion to unhealthy fast food. China could initiate the next generation of waste sorting systems -those that support hyper-t

40、ransparency and move away from the systems in the West that are contributing to reduced transparency. Such a waste sorting system would be a driver for innovation and extreme resource efficiency and a true step toward ecological civilization. 28. Waste sorting is a complex phenomenon because _ A. it

41、 is an important step toward a global circular economy B. it is a first step toward an ecological society C. it may be an activity that undermines sustainable development D. it is slowly moving into the center of conversation 29. What did the behavior of Royal Dutch Shell company result in? A. The d

42、umping of oil rig B. Separating glass bottles and newspapers C. Including environment when assessing risks D. Starting waste sorting in European countries 30.There is a need to fundamentally rethink waste sorting because _ A. the sorting of waste is working well in some areas B. a new system change

43、and global sustainability should be considered C. the western recycling system does not fit for the whole world D. people are concerned about health and greater equity 31. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To introduce Western recycling systems B. To compare two recycling systems. C. To pr

44、edict the change of ecological system 7 D. To advocate a more sustainable waste sorting system D The field of robotics is fast-growing. Robots can now perform complicated movements with elegance - back-flipping, practicing park our moves, even carving classical sculptures. Then theres Sophia, a robo

45、t whose widespread appeal lies not in big, dramatic actions (her body is often fixed to a rolling base), but rather an unsettling human-like appearance, compounded with the complex ability to express emotions(情感). Were not fully there yet, but Sophia can represent a number of emotional states, and s

46、he can also see emotional expressions on a human face as well, explains David Hanson, the founder of Hanson Robotics. According to Hanson, Sophia now has simulations(仿真) of every major muscle in the human face, allowing her to generate expressions of joy, curiosity, confusion, reflection, sorrow, fr

47、ustration, among other feelings. Besides deep learning and a pre-programmed set of expressions, Sophias face is constructed using the latest developments in material technology, meaning it appears softer, more flexible and therefore, more realistic. The lab also studies the neurobiology and biology

48、of human facial expressions to help inform how mechanical ones can behave. When Hanson first began sculpting Sophia, he wanted her form to resonate(共鸣) with people from around the world. To that end, he looked to old statues of Nefertiti (queen of Egypt), ancient Chinese paintings, Audrey Hepburn an

49、d even his wife as inspiration. Since her activation in 2016, Sophia has since graced the covers of fashion publications and starred in a recent Moncler campaign. During an event at Shanghai Fashion Weekend, Sophia wore 3-D copper arm cuffs and sculptural garments designed by British artist Sadie Clayton. The reason I was interested in working with Sophia is because being an artist, it mixes fashion, art and technology. Thi
