Whatever the reason, the fact is that my boy is still unable to drive at 19 and hasnt shown any interest in changing that fact.I asked him why he wasnt interested in getting a drivers license(驾照). He toldto drive.A study showed that in the US, in 2019, just 24.5 percent of 16-year-olds had a license,while in 1983, 46.2 percent did. Only 69 percent of 19-year-olds had licenses in 2019, compared to 87.3 percent in 1983.Why do teens have no interest in getting a license nowadays? Unsurprisingly, money is a reason. Its not easy to afford to buy or keep even a second-hand car. Add in sky-high gas prices and choices such as Uber and Lyft, and Im starting to wonder why I drive. Social media also plays a role. Why spend an hour driving when you can talk to your friends instead?However, like most experienced parents, Im not worried about this. After a few years of taking buses and having to depend on his friends for rides, my son has finally seen the convenience (便利) of a license.34. What can we learn from the study in Paragraph 4?A.

You might think they were grown somewhere nearby. In fact, the cut flower trade is more and more international. Today, thanks to airplanes and high-tech cooling systems, eventhe most delicate (脆弱的) flower can be exported, and sold in a flower shop thousandsof kilometres away from where it was grown.The Netherlands (荷兰) controls the world cut flower trade. It deals with 60 percent of the worlds cut flowers. And its auction (拍卖) houses are very large indeed-Aalsmeer, near Amsterdam, is the largest flower market in the world. About120 soccer fields would fill its main building. Nineteen million flowers are sold here every day, including roses, lilies, and of course, tulips.The Netherlands is also a world leader in developing new flower types. Dutch (荷兰的) companies and the government invest (投资) a large amount of money in flower research. Their scientists look for ways to lengthen a flowers vase life, to strengthenflowers to prevent them from being damaged while traveling, and also to strengthen the natural pleasant smell of the flowers.Although Netherlands plays a lead role in the flower market, there are many places with a better climate for growing flowers, and the climate of Ecuador (厄瓜多尔) isalmost perfect. Mauricio Davalos is the man who starts Ecuadors flower industry. “Our biggest edge is nature,” he says. “Our roses are the best in the world.” With predictable rainy periods and 12 hours of sunlight each day, Ecuadors roses are known for their large heads and long, straight stems. Every year, Ecuador sells about 500 million flowers to the U.S. alone. The industry has brought work chances and a stronger economy to areas of the country. “My family has TV now. There are radios,” says Yolanda Quishpe, 20, who picked roses for four years.To others, the increasingly international flower trade is very bad news. In recent years, local growers in the U.S. faced huge competition from international flower companies, and many lost their business. Lina Hale, an independent rose grower inCalifornia, said her father had foreseen the situation in the 1980s. “I see a freight (货运 ) train coming down the track,” he warned her, “and its coming straight towards us.”37. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A. Fresh-cut flowers cant survive a long trip.B. You should buy flowers from local flower shops.C. Flowers you buy may come from faraway places.D. Its important to think about where you buy your flowers.38. Which of the following is mentioned as large investors in flower research?A. Dutch companies and the government.B. Airplane and high-tech cooling system.C. American companies and their government.D. Ecuadors local flower growers and pickers.39. The word edge in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to .A. endB. differenceC. cornerD. advantage40. What did Lina Hales father mean when he said, “I see a freight (货运) train coming down the track”?A. He thought customers wouldnt want roses.B. He knew that his business would be influenced.C. He could actually see a train coming towards him.D. He thought his track would be crashed by the freight train.四、填空（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分）A）根据括号中所给的汉语或音标写出单词，并将答案填写在答卷纸的相应位置上。41. Its not suitable for everyone to enter the acting(产业).42.
