Simply put, if we don't reduce the number of cars in our cities then they will just completely clog up and stop moving.The study notes the number of cars is actually increasing faster than that of people. In 2021, 80 million cars were built while the population increased by 78 million. And the mass production of those cars was responsible for 4% of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions (排放),which is bigger than aviation (航空)and thafs before you even fuel them up.The study authors construct a mathematical model, and residents choose driving their car or taking public transport on the basis of the time it takes to do the trip. "All individuals decide their commuting (通勤)mode trying to reduce their costs, but the result is the overall worst-case situation, where the average commuting time is longer and all people decide to use their car." write the authors of the study.Besides, policy makers tend to construct even more car infrastructure (根底设施)and invest even more in private cars, which then encourages more private vehicle use and results in even more traffic jams.Possible solutions have to be actively encouraged, with more travel options, plus local shops and services. Also, increasing the costs could be achieved by reducing the space devoted to cars, with more public transport lanes, wider sidewalks, and pedestrian(步彳亍者)roads, for example.Dr. Humberto, one author of the study said: "If our goal is to have more liveable and developed cities then we must take part of this land and give it to other modes of transportation: walking, cycling and public transport.28. Which of the following can replace the underlined words "clog up" ?A. Turn down.B. Break down.C. Make troubles. D. Get stuck.29. What can we infer from the numbers in Paragraph 2?A. The number of cars is larger than population.B. Car production creates more CO2 than aviation.C. CO2 emission is rarely affected by car production.D. Global CO2 emission is more serious than expected.30. What result do study authors get from their model?A. It is hard for people to keep a balance.B. It takes more time to drive cars to work.C. More cars can be used to save time.D. Driving cars can keep the cost down.31. What can be a possible way to reduce car use?A. Building parking lots.B. Saving land for cars.C. Producing less cars. D. Riding a bus to work.DExperts note that an unhealthy lifestyle can put you at great risk of heart disease and stroke. So doctors urge us to eat healthy foods, get exercise, stop smoking and limit our alcohol intake. But there is something else you can do. And it is free and easy. Smile!Dr. Chockalingam, a heart disease specialist in Columbia, advises his patients to smile. He says a smile may be one way to help your heart. "When we smile, the brain wiring changes. The chemicals that are released are more positive.n He says smiling is the first step in fighting physical and emotional stress and its sometimes harmful effects on human health. This is not just New Age advice. Several studies support his opinion.When you feel stressed or under pressure, your body releases many natural hormones (荷尔蒙) including adrenaline and cortisol. Adrenaline increases your heart rate and blood pressure. Cortisol is the body's main stress hormone. It increases sugar in the bloodstream. If you are truly in danger, these hormones can help you. They are part of what we call our fight-or-flight response.However, when we are stressed for a long period, these stress hormones are ever-present in our bodies. And that, medical researchers warn, may lead to health problems.Researchers say the connection between stress and heart disease is still unclear. However, they claim that when people are stressed for long periods of time, they may have an unhealthy lifestyle, which can lead to health problems.Dr. Chockalingam says a smile may be one way to help. He tells his patients to smile 20 times an hour. To some, that might seem like a lot of smiling. Or some might even feel foolish . smiling for seemingly no reason. But a smile does not involve drugs. It is not invasive like a surgical operation. It is free and it has no bad side effects."Once people smile, they are relaxing. This relaxation directly lowers blood pressure, improves sugar levels in the blood. If we are smiling, we are breaking that link between stress and health.1' And it just may provide a little extra protection to everyone's heart health.32. Which of the following agrees with Dr. Chockalingam's opinion?A.Smile has the same effects as laughter.B.Smile can be used to take the place of medicine.C.Smile is better than any healthy lifestyle to health.D.Smile can make our body produce beneficial chemicals.33. What can we know about the mentioned stress hormones?A.They can lower our blood pressure.B.They will surely lead to heart diseases.C.They can benefit us when we are in danger.D.They will make us live an unhealthy lifestyle.34. Why does Dr. Chockalingam think smiling is helpful to our health?A.It can make us relax.B.It increases sugar levels.C.It has little bad side effects.D.It can happen for no reason.35. What can be the best title for the text?A.A Thorough Analysis of the Causes of Heart DiseasesB.One Thing You Can Do Right Now to Help Your HeartC.One Thing That Is Closely Connected with Stress HormonesD.The Clear Connection Between Unhealthy Lifestyles and Heart Diseases第二节(共5小题;每题2分,总分值10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。Tips for Keeping Awake in ClassIf you want to keep awake during class, sleep the night before your class. Students who doze(打瞌睡)in class often missed sleep the night before. Getting enough sleep is your first line of defense when it comes to staying awake in class.362 For most people, eight hours of sleep isenough to get through the day, but your body may require more.37 .This will train your body to know when it needs to be asleep and when it is time to wake up. Allow yourself time to relax before heading to bed by putting away your phone, homework, and other things that keep your mind active. Getting enough high-quality sleep can help you.Another way is to take a shower before class. 382 The warm water from your showerraises your body temperature. This also increases your heart rate so your blood travels around your body faster. Finally, it helps deliver oxygen to your important organs so your body can work at the best level of efficiency.39 .When your body is exposed to cold water, your blood will flow at a higher pressure, meaning that your circulation(循环)is even further increased. The cold water will also help wake you up because it will shock your body, forcing you to breathe more deeply,40.And thus you will be more mentally sharp.A. Having a warm meal also works.B This will increase your oxygen intake.C. Perform a series of movements before sleep.D. This helps you feel refreshed and awakens your senses.E. For some extra energy, finish your shower with cold water.F. Make sure to get some shut-eye if you have a class the next day.G.
