Is an electric vehicle right for you
Many people will ask themselves that question for the first time this year. Prices are falling, battery range is rising and mainstream brands are adding new EVs at a breakneck pace.
Here are three things anybody seriously considering buying an EV should know:
1. The price to install a 240v charger
Anybody who owns an electric vehicle needs a 240-volt charger at home. With one, you can recharge overnight, so you start every day with the equivalent of a full tank.
Just a few years ago, home 240v EV chargers cost $2,500-$3,000, including installation, but prices have declined as competition grows with the number of EVs on the road.
2. The time it takes to charge
About 80% of miles driven in EVs are powered by electricity charged at home, but you'll need to charge elsewhere occasionally. That's when charging time becomes a big deal, but how long it takes depends on a couple of factors.
First, voltage from the charger. Getting 250 miles of range in seven hours from a 240v charger is fine when you're charging overnight at home, but it's a deal breaker if you're going 300 miles for a weekend getaway. In that case, you'll want to look for a 400v DC fast charger. They're not as common as 240v public chargers yet, but they're becoming more widespread.
There's another factor: the on-board charger. It regulates how fast the battery can accept electricity. A vehicle with a higher-capacity on-board charger accepts electricity faster.
3. Where to charge
Good route-planning apps will help you find chargers on a road trip.
"Most people have no idea how many public charging stations are within, say, a 10- or 15-mile radius (半径) because they're small, people don't look for them or even don't know what to look for, and they're rarely signposted," said journalist John Voelcker, who has studied EVs and charging exhaustively.
4.On the horizon
If an EV doesn't meet your needs now, watch this space. They're coming closer, but large numbers of gasoline vehicles will remain in production for years. Beyond that, companies will keep making spare parts for oil-burners for decades.
21．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A．The price of installing a home EV charger has remained stable in the past few years.
B．It's quite easy to identify the public charging stations with the help of striking signposts.
C．Popular brands are introducing new EVs at an incredibly fast rate.
D．An electric vehicle can't provide the same amount of energy as a completely filled fuel tank.
22．The underlined phrase "watch this space" in the last paragraph probably means "____".
A．give up the plan to purchase an EV
B．make space for an EV
C．find an alternative to EV
D．keep an eye out for future developments
23．This passage is mainly intended to ____.
A．illustrate the factors charging time depends on
B．offer advice on purchasing an electric vehicle
C．look forward to the future of electric vehicles
D．explain the reason for the falling prices of electric vehicles
【答案】21．C
22．D
23．B
【知识点】词义猜测题；细节理解题；说明文；日常生活类；文章大意
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。旨在为读者提供购买电动汽车前需要了解的三个重要知识点。
【点评】考查阅读理解。本篇文章涉及细节理解题，词义猜测题和主旨大意题三种题型。细节理解题要求考生能在快速阅读文章的同时，从中获取某些特定的直接信息或理解特定信息的意义。做细节理解题时，要根据题干中的关键词，找准相关句、段的内容，再仔细对照，不符合原文意义的选项要首先排除，反之，则是正确选项。词义猜测题主要考查考生根据上下文推测词义和语义的能力，突出考查对语境的分析和把握能力。常见的猜词法有：利用上下文语境。猜测任何词义都离不开上下文，所以要借助上下文对需要猜测的词或短语进行合乎逻辑的推测。 利用定义或解释性的线索。阅读文章中的有些生词往往在其后会有对该词进行解释说明的短语或句子，利用它们猜词义较容易 利用文章的逻辑关系答题。如并列、对比、因果、转折关系等。做主旨大意题时，要求考生抓住每段或每个层次的主要含义进行加工、提炼，通过对语篇结构的分析即对文章内部各层次间的逻辑关系的分析，将每段的主题综合起来，找出文章的中心。
21．细节理解题。根据第一段"Many people will ask themselves that question for the first time this year. Prices are falling, battery range is rising and mainstream brands are adding new EVs at a breakneck pace.(今年，很多人会第一次问自己这个问题。价格在下降，电池续航里程在增加，主流品牌正在以惊人的速度增加新的电动汽车)"可知，热门品牌正以令人难以置信的速度推出新的电动汽车。故选C。
22．词义猜测题。根据前文"If an EV doesn't meet your needs now(如果电动汽车现在还不能满足你的需求)"以及后文"They're coming closer, but large numbers of gasoline vehicles will remain in production for years.(他们离目标越来越近了，但大量的汽油车仍将持续生产多年)"可知，电车离目标越来越近了，所以如果电动汽车现在还不能满足你的需求，就持续关注它的未来，直到达到目标，推知watch this space意为"关注未来的发展"之意，和D项意思相近。故选D。
23．主旨大意题。根据第二段"Here are three things anybody seriously considering buying an EV should know:(任何认真考虑购买电动汽车的人都应该知道以下三点)"以及纵观全文可知，本文主要讲述了购买电动汽车前需要了解的三个重要知识点，也就是提供购买电动汽车的建议。故选B。
（2024高三上·成都开学考） 阅读理解
Yesterday, after a day of Zoom (视频会议软件) meetings in my living room, I stepped out for a walk leaving my teen son bored on the couch. Bleecker Street, usually packed with people, was sprinkled with only the occasional pedestrians. Bars and restaurants lining the street were dark. Stores with bright neon lights, doors open, beckoned for the rare passers-by to enter. After just a week of the Covid-19 pandemic, an afternoon walk in Greenwich Village neighborhood felt surreal.
But then I noticed a row of daffodils (水仙) reaching for the sun in the small triangle-shaped park by Minetta Lane. On the windows of a locked restaurant, in bright yellow paint, were the words "We love you, West Village. Take care of each other." My phone buzzed — a colleague sent a picture of her newborn baby just home from the hospital. I arrived home to find my son animated on the couch playing a video game virtually with his friends. Life, love, play, and human connection persist, even though our world has been turned upside down.
In my welcome note to the new students in the Fall, I wrote that this year is about our college's core values of inclusion, innovation, and impact and emphasized the power of interconnection. Today, these core values persist, with interconnection taking on even greater significance. Our collaborative spirit has always given us an advantage — academically, creatively, culturally, and now, remotely.
A wise person once told me that getting through a crisis is like being given a new hand of cards in the middle of a game. We are halfway through the semester, with new hands to play, but the game hasn't changed. We will find new ways to continue to work, teach, create and learn. Let's also continue the informal interactions that make us a community — the study groups, coffee dates, drop-ins just to say hello. In doing so, we will remain connected.
We will come together, from spaces around the world, to meet this new reality. This is who we are. Nothing — not space, nor time — can keep us from moving forward, together.
24．What can be inferred from paragraph 1
A．The Covid-19 pandemic is unstoppable.
B．The effects of the pandemic could be easily felt.
C．Nothing is the same except that the business goes slow as usual.
D．People have every reason to be worried about the future.
25．What does the writer include in paragraph 2
A．Daily routines that seemed insignificant.
B．Reminders that the world has been changed.
C．Events that people can do during the pandemic.
D．Things or people that carry symbolic meanings.
26．What does the underlined word "collaborative" mean in paragraph 3
A．Cooperative. B．Pioneering. C．Independent. D．Adventurous.
27．What is the main purpose of the text
A．To express wisdom gained from previous experience.
B．To give people some tips on how to handle a crisis.
C．To deliver an uplifting message over the pandemic.
D．To encourage people to enjoy the great outdoors.

【点评】考查阅读理解。本篇文章涉及推理判断题，词义猜测题，段落大意题和主旨大意题四种题型。做推理判断题时，要求考生不能凭主观臆断推测或妄加猜测，必须忠实于原文，以材料所提供的相关事实和线索为依据，使做出的推理合乎文意。需要注意：审清题目要求；锁定关键信息；挖掘隐含信息；排除干扰选项；把握语境情感；逻辑推理分析。词义猜测题主要考查考生根据上下文推测词义和语义的能力，突出考查对语境的分析和把握能力。常见的猜词法有：利用上下文语境。猜测任何词义都离不开上下文，所以要借助上下文对需要猜测的词或短语进行合乎逻辑的推测。 利用定义或解释性的线索。阅读文章中的有些生词往往在其后会有对该词进行解释说明的短语或句子，利用它们猜词义较容易 利用文章的逻辑关系答题。如并列、对比、因果、转折关系等。做主旨大意题时，要求考生抓住每段或每个层次的主要含义进行加工、提炼，通过对语篇结构的分析即对文章内部各层次间的逻辑关系的分析，将每段的主题综合起来，找出文章的中心。做段落大意题时，注意确定主题句，主题句是段落中表达主要观点或思想的句子，通常位于段落的开头或结尾，偶尔也会出现在段落中间。由于主题句往往出现在段落的首尾，因此仔细阅读段落的首尾句是快速把握段落大意的有效方法。段落中的转折词和总结性语言常用来引入新的观点或总结段落内容，对理解段落大意至关重要。在理解段落信息的基础上，用简洁的语言概括段落的主要内容。
24．推理判断题。根据第一段"Yesterday, after a day of Zoom (视频会议软件) meetings in my living room, I stepped out for a walk. leaving my teen son bored on the couch. Bleecker Street, usually packed with people, was sprinkled with only the occasional pedestrians. Bars and restaurants lining the street were dark. Stores with bright neon lights, doors open, beckoned for the rare passers-by to enter. After just a week of the Covid-19 pandemic, an afternoon walk in Greenwich Village neighborhood felt surreal. (昨天，在客厅里开了一天的Zoom会议后，我出去散步。让我十几岁的儿子无聊地躺在沙发上。布利克街通常挤满了人，但昨天只偶尔有行人。街道两旁的酒吧和餐馆都很黑。商店里灯火通明，门开着，招手让难得的路人进入。新冠疫情发生仅一周后，下午在格林威治村附近散步感觉很怪异。)"可知，新冠疫情发生后，街道上只有很少的行人，酒吧和餐馆停业，商店没有顾客。通过这些描写，突显疫情的影响随处可见。故从第一段可推知疫情的影响很容易被感受到。故选B。
25．段落大意题。根据第二段"But then I noticed a row of daffodils(水仙)reaching for the sun in the small triangle-shaped park by Minetta Lane. On the windows of a locked restaurant, in bright yellow paint, were the words "We love you, West Village. Take care of each other. " My phone buzzed—a colleague sent a picture of her newborn baby just home from the hospital. I arrived home to find my son animated on the couch playing a video game virtually with his friends. Life, love, play, and human connection persist, even though our world has been tuned upside down. (但后来我注意到一排水仙在Minetta Lane旁边的小三角形公园里面向太阳。在一家上锁的餐厅的窗户上，用明亮的黄色油漆写着"我们爱你，西村。互相照顾。"我的手机嗡嗡作响——一位同事发来了一张刚从医院回家的新生儿的照片。我回到家，发现我的儿子实际上坐在沙发上和他的朋友玩电子游戏。生活、爱、游戏和人际关系仍然存在，尽管我们的世界已经颠倒了。)"可知，虽然疫情的发生导致餐馆关业，路上行人罕至，但是我们生活中重要的事物——生活、爱情、游戏和人际关系仍然存在。商店老板在牌子上写的鼓励的话象征着关爱，同事在照顾新生儿象征着生活与家庭，儿子和朋友玩象征着人际关系和游戏，故推知第二段主要描写具有象征意义的人和事物。故选D。
26．词义猜测题。根据第三段"In my welcome note to the new students in the Fall, I wrote that this year is about our college's core values of inclusion, innovation, and impact and emphasized the power of interconnection. Today, these core values persist, with interconnection taking on even greater significance. (在我给秋季新生的欢迎信中，我写道：今年是关于我们学院包含的核心价值观，创新和影响，并强调了互联的力量。今天，这些核心价值观仍然存在，互联互通具有更大的意义。)"及第四段"We will find new ways to continue to work, teach, create and learn. Let's also continue the informal interactions that make us a community—the study groups, coffee dates, drop-ins just to say hello. In doing so, we will remain connected. (我们将找到新的方法来继续工作，教学，创造和学习。让我们也继续非正式的互动，使我们成为一个团体——学习小组、咖啡约会、只是为了打个招呼的临时到访。通过这样做，我们将保持联系。)"可知，这两段强调疫情期间学院与学生互相连接，团结协作的关系。故推知collaborative与Cooperative意义一致，表示"合作的，协作的"。故选A。
27．主旨大意题。根据第一段"Yesterday, after a day of Zoom (视频会议软件) meetings in my living room, I stepped out for a walk. leaving my teen son bored on the couch. Bleecker Street, usually packed with people, was sprinkled with only the occasional pedestrians. Bars and restaurants lining the street were dark. Stores with bright neon lights, doors open, beckoned for the rare passers-by to enter. After just a week of the Covid-19 pandemic, an afternoon walk in Greenwich Village neighborhood felt surreal. (昨天，在客厅里开了一天的Zoom会议后，我出去散步。让我十几岁的儿子无聊地躺在沙发上。布利克街通常挤满了人，但昨天只偶尔有行人。街道两旁的酒吧和餐馆都很黑。商店里灯火通明，门开着，招手让难得的路人进入。新冠疫情发生仅一周后，下午在格林威治村附近散步感觉很怪异。)"及最后一段"We will come together, from spaces around the world, to meet this new reality. This is who we are. Nothing—not space, nor time—can keep us from moving forward, together. (我们将从世界各地的空间聚集在一起，迎接这一新的现实。这就是我们。没有什么——不是空间，也不是时间——可以阻止我们一起前进。)"可知，疫情让餐馆闭店，街道上人迹罕至，但疫情无法阻止我们前进的脚步。故推知作者写这篇文章的主要目的是为了在疫情期间传递令人振奋的信息。故选C。

For most of our history, humans have been short, a study has found. Until around 150 years ago, few people grew taller than 170 centimeters.
Christiane Scheffler at the University of Potsdam and Michael Hermanussen in Altenhof have spent several years studying the height of people from a wide range of populations. In their latest paper, they combined an existing data of more than 6000 prehistoric human skeletons with multiple studies of more recent historical populations from Europe and the US. They also included their own data on 1666 present-day school children from Indonesia.
In the prehistoric populations，the maximum height for men was 165 to 170 centimeters, while women topped out at 160 cm. Today, men in England have an average height of around 175 cm, while for women it is about 162 cm.
But there is significant variation between modern countries. The Indonesian school children in the study were shorter than similarly aged children from the US, despite being well-nourished.
Scheffler and Hermanussen argue that height can be a signal of dominance (显赫地位), so in societies where it is possible to move up through the social classes, evolution favors individuals who reach a greater height.
Subramanian at Harvard University isn't convinced by the pair's interpretation. His team previously showed that the best predictor of a child's height is the height of their parents. This suggests that the influence of other factors, such as social mobility, is limited.
After assessing nearly 163,000 children living in 55 low and middle-income countries, Subramanian's team found that 42.9 percent had poor nutrition but no "sign of stunting" (阻碍发育) or other physical indicators of this fact.
This implies there is a lot of hidden malnutrition that doesn't reveal itself through stunting. A person's nutritional condition should be assessed by looking at their diet not their height, says Subramanian.
28．How did Scheffler and Hermanussen conduct the research
A．Studying the skeletons of prehistoric human.
B．Combining existing data with recent research.
C．Assessing children living in various income areas.
D．Analyzing the results of other scientists' researches.
29．What's Subramanian's attitude towards the explanation of Scheffler and Hermanussen
A．Worried. B．Cautious. C．Doubtful. D．Supportive.
30．What can we infer from Subramanian's study
A．Poor nutrition delays physical development.
B．A balanced diet contributes to growing taller.
C．High social classes can reach a greater height.
D．A human's height has little to do with nutrition.
31．What is the text mainly about
A．The significance that lies in nutrition.
B．The factors that influence human's height.
C．The importance that humans attach to height.
D．The reasons why prehistoric humans were short.
【答案】28．B
29．C
30．D

The ban on cigarette advertising in the early 1970s in the United States serves as a fascinating case study in the field of public health campaigns and their unintended consequences. Despite the government's intention to discourage smoking and reduce related health risks, the ban led to an unexpected outcome: an increase in cigarette sales for the major tobacco companies.
The reason for this unexpected outcome can be traced to the principles of game theory, particularly the prisoner's dilemma paradox (悖论). Just as in the prisoner's dilemma, where cooperation leads to the best outcome for both parties, the tobacco companies would benefit collectively if none of them advertised. This action would create fairness in competition, ensuring that no individual company gains an edge by advertising.
However, the dilemma arises when considering the potential actions of competitors. If one tobacco company decides to ignore the ban and advertise its products, it stands to gain a significant market share and increased sales compared to its non-advertising competitors. This creates a situation where each company faces the urge to advertise, fearing that their competitors may do the same and leave them at a disadvantage.
In the end, most tobacco companies decided to play it safe and invested in advertising, despite the ban, to avoid being left behind in the competitive landscape. This strategic decision reflects the uncertainty and strategic considerations that shape business decisions, even in the face of regulations aimed at public health goals.
This application of game theory provides valuable insight into the complexities of influencing human behavior through policy interventions. While well-intended efforts such as advertising bans may seem straightforward in theory, the realities of strategic decision-making and competitive dynamics often lead to unforeseen outcomes. As such, understanding the complexities of game theory can provide valuable insight for policymakers seeking to design more effective interventions and address complex societal challenges.
32．What is a direct result of the ban in the 1970s
A．Cut in tax income. B．Reduction in health risks.
C．Rise in tobacco sales. D．Cooperation of companies.
33．How can all competitors benefit in the prisoner's dilemma
A．They fully trust each other and follow the regulations.
B．They act independently and pursue their own interests.
C．They increase their market share at the expense of others.
D．They ignore competition and focus on their own strategies.
34．Why do most tobacco companies finally choose to advertise
A．To avoid intense competition.
B．To gain a competitive advantage.
C．To shape better business images.
D．To achieve public health goals.
35．What can be the most suitable title for the passage
A．A Good Intention Fails
B．A Ban on Cigarette Advertising Ends in Smoke
C．A Ban Boosts Public Health
D．A Dilemma Concerns Cigarette Campaign
【答案】32．C

【点评】考查阅读理解。本篇文章涉及细节理解题和标题选择题两种题型。细节理解题要求考生能在快速阅读文章的同时，从中获取某些特定的直接信息或理解特定信息的意义。做细节理解题时，要根据题干中的关键词，找准相关句、段的内容，再仔细对照，不符合原文意义的选项要首先排除，反之，则是正确选项。做标题选择题时，注意关注首尾句，首尾句往往包含段落或文章的核心信息，是判断标题是否准确的重要依据。利用关键词，文章中的关键词汇、短语或句子往往与标题有紧密联系，可以通过关键词汇的匹配来缩小选择范围。语境理解，理解文章的整体语境和作者的态度倾向，有助于准确把握文章的主旨和标题的选择方向。
32．细节理解题。根据第一段"Despite the government's intention to discourage smoking and reduce related health risks, the ban led to an unexpected outcome: an increase in cigarette sales for the major tobacco companies. (尽管政府的意图是劝阻吸烟，减少相关的健康风险，但禁令导致了一个意想不到的结果：主要烟草公司的卷烟销量增加)"可知，20世纪70年代禁令的直接后果是烟草销售增加。故选C。
33．细节理解题。根据第二段"Just as in the prisoner's dilemma, where cooperation leads to the best outcome for both parties, the tobacco companies would benefit collectively if none of them advertised. (正如在囚徒困境中，合作会给双方带来最好的结果一样，如果烟草公司都不做广告，它们将共同受益。)"可知，在囚徒困境中，如果竞争对手相互信任并遵守规则，则对所有竞争对手都有利。故选A。
34．细节理解题。根据第三段"If one tobacco company decides to ignore the ban and advertise its products, it stands to gain a significant market share and increased sales compared to its non-advertising competitors..(如果一家烟草公司决定无视禁令并为其产品做广告，那么与不做广告的竞争对手相比，它将获得显著的市场份额并增加销售额)"可知，大多数烟草公司最终选择做广告是为了获得竞争优势。故选B。
35．标题选择题。根据第一段"The ban on cigarette advertising in the early 1970s in the United States serves as a fascinating case study in the field of public health campaigns and their unintended consequences. Despite the government's intention to discourage smoking and reduce related health risks, the ban led to an unexpected outcome: an increase in cigarette sales for the major tobacco companies. ( 20世纪70年代初，美国对香烟广告的禁令是公共卫生运动及其意外后果领域的一个引人入胜的研究案例。尽管政府的意图是劝阻吸烟，减少相关的健康风险，但禁令导致了一个意想不到的结果：主要烟草公司的卷烟销量增加。)"和第四段中"In the end, most tobacco companies decided to play it safe and invested in advertising, despite the ban, to avoid being left behind in the competitive landscape. (最后，大多数烟草公司决定谨慎行事，不顾禁令，投资广告，以避免在竞争格局中落后。)"以及通读全文可知，文章讲述了20世纪70年代禁令的直接后果是部分烟草公司销售增加，最终大多数烟草公司陷入"囚徒困境"，决定不顾禁令，投资广告，以避免在竞争格局中落后。香烟广告的禁令最后化为云烟。故B选项"A Ban on Cigarette Advertising Ends in Smoke (禁令化作云烟)"是文章最佳标题。故选B。

Does happiness favor those of a 41． age, sex, or income level Does happiness come with 42． close relationships
Social scientists have exploded some myths about who is happy and who is not by identifying predictors of happiness and life satisfaction. Many people believe there are unhappy times of life — typically the stress-filled teen years, the "mid-life crisis" years, or the 43． years of old age. But interviews with people of all ages reveal that no time of life is remarkably happier or unhappier.
44． do change with age: Satisfaction with social relations and health becomes more important in 45． life. And teens, 46． adults, typically rebound(反弹) 47． gloom and joy within an hour's time.

Does happiness have a 49． sex Are men happier because of their greater incomes and social 50． Are women happier because of their supposedly 51． capacity for intimacy and social connection Like age, gender gives no clue to subjective well-being. There are gender gaps when misery strikes: Men more often become alcoholic, while women more often think deeply and get 52． . Yet men and women are equally likely to declare themselves "very happy" and "satis ed" with life. This conclusion is 53． in scores of studies around the world.
Living standards have risen during the past years and are 54． to continue rising in the decades ahead. Does that mean that we humans can look forward to increasing happiness Not necessarily. Steady improvements in the economy are not 55． by a steady increase in people's appreciation of their own happiness.

【知识点】名词辨析；形容词的词义辨析；动词的词义辨析；说明文；人生百味类
【解析】【分析】 本文是一篇说明文。本文探讨了幸福与年龄、性别、收入、人际关系之间的关系，并反驳了一些关于幸福的常见误解。研究表明，幸福并不完全由外部因素（如财富、地位）决定，而更多取决于个人心态和社会关系。
【点评】考查完形填空。首先要通读一遍文章，跳过缺失的单词，再根据上下文来判断所缺失的单词的含义，最后对选项进行对比分析，选出正确选项。完形填空旨在测试学生的语言综合运用能力。一些实用的解题策略如下。一、通读全文，把握大意。在开始答题之前，应先通读全文，了解文章的主题和大致内容。这样有助于理解作者的意图，把握文章的整体思路，为后续的填空选择提供正确的方向。二、仔细分析，逐一排查。对于每一个空，要仔细分析所给的选项，逐一排查，选出最符合文意的答案。通常情况下，完形填空中会有几个空白需要填写形容词、副、名词等，要注意所填的词要与句子前后内容相符。三、结合上下文，理解语义。有时候仅从一个空所在的句子很难确定正确的答案，这时需要结合上下文，理解整体的语义环境。通过对前后的语境分析，确定一个合理的答案。四、注意语法结构。完形填空中涉及的语法知识较多，如时态、语态、词性等。在选择答案时，要仔细考虑语法结构是否正确。
41．句意：幸福是否偏爱特定年龄、性别或收入水平的人？ A. particular特定的；B. different不同的；C. partial部分的；D. special特殊的。根据" Does happiness favor those of a 1 age, sex, or income level "可知，此处询问幸福的归属或者偏向性，故"特定的"符合语境。故选A。

三、第二部分，阅读理解，第一节，阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项 （A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项（共15小题，每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）
（2024高三上·成都开学考） 阅读理解
Is an electric vehicle right for you
Many people will ask themselves that question for the first time this year. Prices are falling, battery range is rising and mainstream brands are adding new EVs at a breakneck pace.
Here are three things anybody seriously considering buying an EV should know:
1. The price to install a 240v charger
Anybody who owns an electric vehicle needs a 240-volt charger at home. With one, you can recharge overnight, so you start every day with the equivalent of a full tank.
Just a few years ago, home 240v EV chargers cost $2,500-$3,000, including installation, but prices have declined as competition grows with the number of EVs on the road.
2. The time it takes to charge
About 80% of miles driven in EVs are powered by electricity charged at home, but you'll need to charge elsewhere occasionally. That's when charging time becomes a big deal, but how long it takes depends on a couple of factors.
First, voltage from the charger. Getting 250 miles of range in seven hours from a 240v charger is fine when you're charging overnight at home, but it's a deal breaker if you're going 300 miles for a weekend getaway. In that case, you'll want to look for a 400v DC fast charger. They're not as common as 240v public chargers yet, but they're becoming more widespread.
There's another factor: the on-board charger. It regulates how fast the battery can accept electricity. A vehicle with a higher-capacity on-board charger accepts electricity faster.
3. Where to charge
Good route-planning apps will help you find chargers on a road trip.
"Most people have no idea how many public charging stations are within, say, a 10- or 15-mile radius (半径) because they're small, people don't look for them or even don't know what to look for, and they're rarely signposted," said journalist John Voelcker, who has studied EVs and charging exhaustively.
4.On the horizon
If an EV doesn't meet your needs now, watch this space. They're coming closer, but large numbers of gasoline vehicles will remain in production for years. Beyond that, companies will keep making spare parts for oil-burners for decades.
21．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A．The price of installing a home EV charger has remained stable in the past few years.
B．It's quite easy to identify the public charging stations with the help of striking signposts.
C．Popular brands are introducing new EVs at an incredibly fast rate.
D．An electric vehicle can't provide the same amount of energy as a completely filled fuel tank.
22．The underlined phrase "watch this space" in the last paragraph probably means "____".
A．give up the plan to purchase an EV
B．make space for an EV
C．find an alternative to EV
D．keep an eye out for future developments
23．This passage is mainly intended to ____.
A．illustrate the factors charging time depends on
B．offer advice on purchasing an electric vehicle
C．look forward to the future of electric vehicles
D．explain the reason for the falling prices of electric vehicles

Yesterday, after a day of Zoom (视频会议软件) meetings in my living room, I stepped out for a walk leaving my teen son bored on the couch. Bleecker Street, usually packed with people, was sprinkled with only the occasional pedestrians. Bars and restaurants lining the street were dark. Stores with bright neon lights, doors open, beckoned for the rare passers-by to enter. After just a week of the Covid-19 pandemic, an afternoon walk in Greenwich Village neighborhood felt surreal.
But then I noticed a row of daffodils (水仙) reaching for the sun in the small triangle-shaped park by Minetta Lane. On the windows of a locked restaurant, in bright yellow paint, were the words "We love you, West Village. Take care of each other." My phone buzzed — a colleague sent a picture of her newborn baby just home from the hospital. I arrived home to find my son animated on the couch playing a video game virtually with his friends. Life, love, play, and human connection persist, even though our world has been turned upside down.
In my welcome note to the new students in the Fall, I wrote that this year is about our college's core values of inclusion, innovation, and impact and emphasized the power of interconnection. Today, these core values persist, with interconnection taking on even greater significance. Our collaborative spirit has always given us an advantage — academically, creatively, culturally, and now, remotely.
A wise person once told me that getting through a crisis is like being given a new hand of cards in the middle of a game. We are halfway through the semester, with new hands to play, but the game hasn't changed. We will find new ways to continue to work, teach, create and learn. Let's also continue the informal interactions that make us a community — the study groups, coffee dates, drop-ins just to say hello. In doing so, we will remain connected.
We will come together, from spaces around the world, to meet this new reality. This is who we are. Nothing — not space, nor time — can keep us from moving forward, together.
24．What can be inferred from paragraph 1
A．The Covid-19 pandemic is unstoppable.
B．The effects of the pandemic could be easily felt.
C．Nothing is the same except that the business goes slow as usual.
D．People have every reason to be worried about the future.
25．What does the writer include in paragraph 2
A．Daily routines that seemed insignificant.
B．Reminders that the world has been changed.
C．Events that people can do during the pandemic.
D．Things or people that carry symbolic meanings.
26．What does the underlined word "collaborative" mean in paragraph 3
A．Cooperative. B．Pioneering. C．Independent. D．Adventurous.
27．What is the main purpose of the text
A．To express wisdom gained from previous experience.
B．To give people some tips on how to handle a crisis.
C．To deliver an uplifting message over the pandemic.
D．To encourage people to enjoy the great outdoors.

For most of our history, humans have been short, a study has found. Until around 150 years ago, few people grew taller than 170 centimeters.
Christiane Scheffler at the University of Potsdam and Michael Hermanussen in Altenhof have spent several years studying the height of people from a wide range of populations. In their latest paper, they combined an existing data of more than 6000 prehistoric human skeletons with multiple studies of more recent historical populations from Europe and the US. They also included their own data on 1666 present-day school children from Indonesia.
In the prehistoric populations，the maximum height for men was 165 to 170 centimeters, while women topped out at 160 cm. Today, men in England have an average height of around 175 cm, while for women it is about 162 cm.
But there is significant variation between modern countries. The Indonesian school children in the study were shorter than similarly aged children from the US, despite being well-nourished.
Scheffler and Hermanussen argue that height can be a signal of dominance (显赫地位), so in societies where it is possible to move up through the social classes, evolution favors individuals who reach a greater height.
Subramanian at Harvard University isn't convinced by the pair's interpretation. His team previously showed that the best predictor of a child's height is the height of their parents. This suggests that the influence of other factors, such as social mobility, is limited.
After assessing nearly 163,000 children living in 55 low and middle-income countries, Subramanian's team found that 42.9 percent had poor nutrition but no "sign of stunting" (阻碍发育) or other physical indicators of this fact.
This implies there is a lot of hidden malnutrition that doesn't reveal itself through stunting. A person's nutritional condition should be assessed by looking at their diet not their height, says Subramanian.
28．How did Scheffler and Hermanussen conduct the research
A．Studying the skeletons of prehistoric human.
B．Combining existing data with recent research.
C．Assessing children living in various income areas.
D．Analyzing the results of other scientists' researches.
29．What's Subramanian's attitude towards the explanation of Scheffler and Hermanussen
A．Worried. B．Cautious. C．Doubtful. D．Supportive.
30．What can we infer from Subramanian's study
A．Poor nutrition delays physical development.
B．A balanced diet contributes to growing taller.
C．High social classes can reach a greater height.
D．A human's height has little to do with nutrition.
31．What is the text mainly about
A．The significance that lies in nutrition.
B．The factors that influence human's height.
C．The importance that humans attach to height.
D．The reasons why prehistoric humans were short.

The ban on cigarette advertising in the early 1970s in the United States serves as a fascinating case study in the field of public health campaigns and their unintended consequences. Despite the government's intention to discourage smoking and reduce related health risks, the ban led to an unexpected outcome: an increase in cigarette sales for the major tobacco companies.
The reason for this unexpected outcome can be traced to the principles of game theory, particularly the prisoner's dilemma paradox (悖论). Just as in the prisoner's dilemma, where cooperation leads to the best outcome for both parties, the tobacco companies would benefit collectively if none of them advertised. This action would create fairness in competition, ensuring that no individual company gains an edge by advertising.
However, the dilemma arises when considering the potential actions of competitors. If one tobacco company decides to ignore the ban and advertise its products, it stands to gain a significant market share and increased sales compared to its non-advertising competitors. This creates a situation where each company faces the urge to advertise, fearing that their competitors may do the same and leave them at a disadvantage.
In the end, most tobacco companies decided to play it safe and invested in advertising, despite the ban, to avoid being left behind in the competitive landscape. This strategic decision reflects the uncertainty and strategic considerations that shape business decisions, even in the face of regulations aimed at public health goals.
This application of game theory provides valuable insight into the complexities of influencing human behavior through policy interventions. While well-intended efforts such as advertising bans may seem straightforward in theory, the realities of strategic decision-making and competitive dynamics often lead to unforeseen outcomes. As such, understanding the complexities of game theory can provide valuable insight for policymakers seeking to design more effective interventions and address complex societal challenges.
32．What is a direct result of the ban in the 1970s
A．Cut in tax income. B．Reduction in health risks.
C．Rise in tobacco sales. D．Cooperation of companies.
33．How can all competitors benefit in the prisoner's dilemma
A．They fully trust each other and follow the regulations.
B．They act independently and pursue their own interests.
C．They increase their market share at the expense of others.
D．They ignore competition and focus on their own strategies.
34．Why do most tobacco companies finally choose to advertise
A．To avoid intense competition.
B．To gain a competitive advantage.
C．To shape better business images.
D．To achieve public health goals.
35．What can be the most suitable title for the passage
A．A Good Intention Fails
B．A Ban on Cigarette Advertising Ends in Smoke
C．A Ban Boosts Public Health
D．A Dilemma Concerns Cigarette Campaign

I met Gunter on a cold, wet and unforgettable evening in September. I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just 30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought.
That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadn't heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car.
Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was a long queue still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. "We made it," he said.
Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out.
At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message: "Out of order. Sorry."
注意：（1）续写词数应为150个左右；（2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news.
……
Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised.

21．细节理解题。根据第一段"Many people will ask themselves that question for the first time this year. Prices are falling, battery range is rising and mainstream brands are adding new EVs at a breakneck pace.(今年，很多人会第一次问自己这个问题。价格在下降，电池续航里程在增加，主流品牌正在以惊人的速度增加新的电动汽车)"可知，热门品牌正以令人难以置信的速度推出新的电动汽车。故选C。
22．词义猜测题。根据前文"If an EV doesn't meet your needs now(如果电动汽车现在还不能满足你的需求)"以及后文"They're coming closer, but large numbers of gasoline vehicles will remain in production for years.(他们离目标越来越近了，但大量的汽油车仍将持续生产多年)"可知，电车离目标越来越近了，所以如果电动汽车现在还不能满足你的需求，就持续关注它的未来，直到达到目标，推知watch this space意为"关注未来的发展"之意，和D项意思相近。故选D。
23．主旨大意题。根据第二段"Here are three things anybody seriously considering buying an EV should know:(任何认真考虑购买电动汽车的人都应该知道以下三点)"以及纵观全文可知，本文主要讲述了购买电动汽车前需要了解的三个重要知识点，也就是提供购买电动汽车的建议。故选B。

(昨天，在客厅里开了一天的Zoom会议后，我出去散步。让我十几岁的儿子无聊地躺在沙发上。布利克街通常挤满了人，但昨天只偶尔有行人。街道两旁的酒吧和餐馆都很黑。商店里灯火通明，门开着，招手让难得的路人进入。新冠疫情发生仅一周后，下午在格林威治村附近散步感觉很怪异。)"可知，新冠疫情发生后，街道上只有很少的行人，酒吧和餐馆停业，商店没有顾客。通过这些描写，突显疫情的影响随处可见。故从第一段可推知疫情的影响很容易被感受到。故选B。
25．段落大意题。根据第二段"But then I noticed a row of daffodils(水仙)reaching for the sun in the small triangle-shaped park by Minetta Lane. On the windows of a locked restaurant, in bright yellow paint, were the words "We love you, West Village. Take care of each other. " My phone buzzed—a colleague sent a picture of her newborn baby just home from the hospital. I arrived home to find my son animated on the couch playing a video game virtually with his friends. Life, love, play, and human connection persist, even though our world has been tuned upside down. (但后来我注意到一排水仙在Minetta Lane旁边的小三角形公园里面向太阳。在一家上锁的餐厅的窗户上，用明亮的黄色油漆写着"我们爱你，西村。互相照顾。"我的手机嗡嗡作响——一位同事发来了一张刚从医院回家的新生儿的照片。我回到家，发现我的儿子实际上坐在沙发上和他的朋友玩电子游戏。生活、爱、游戏和人际关系仍然存在，尽管我们的世界已经颠倒了。)"可知，虽然疫情的发生导致餐馆关业，路上行人罕至，但是我们生活中重要的事物——生活、爱情、游戏和人际关系仍然存在。商店老板在牌子上写的鼓励的话象征着关爱，同事在照顾新生儿象征着生活与家庭，儿子和朋友玩象征着人际关系和游戏，故推知第二段主要描写具有象征意义的人和事物。故选D。
26．词义猜测题。根据第三段"In my welcome note to the new students in the Fall, I wrote that this year is about our college's core values of inclusion, innovation, and impact and emphasized the power of interconnection. Today, these core values persist, with interconnection taking on even greater significance. (在我给秋季新生的欢迎信中，我写道：今年是关于我们学院包含的核心价值观，创新和影响，并强调了互联的力量。今天，这些核心价值观仍然存在，互联互通具有更大的意义。)"及第四段"We will find new ways to continue to work, teach, create and learn. Let's also continue the informal interactions that make us a community—the study groups, coffee dates, drop-ins just to say hello. In doing so, we will remain connected. (我们将找到新的方法来继续工作，教学，创造和学习。让我们也继续非正式的互动，使我们成为一个团体——学习小组、咖啡约会、只是为了打个招呼的临时到访。通过这样做，我们将保持联系。)"可知，这两段强调疫情期间学院与学生互相连接，团结协作的关系。故推知collaborative与Cooperative意义一致，表示"合作的，协作的"。故选A。
27．主旨大意题。根据第一段"Yesterday, after a day of Zoom (视频会议软件) meetings in my living room, I stepped out for a walk. leaving my teen son bored on the couch. Bleecker Street, usually packed with people, was sprinkled with only the occasional pedestrians. Bars and restaurants lining the street were dark. Stores with bright neon lights, doors open, beckoned for the rare passers-by to enter. After just a week of the Covid-19 pandemic, an afternoon walk in Greenwich Village neighborhood felt surreal. (昨天，在客厅里开了一天的Zoom会议后，我出去散步。让我十几岁的儿子无聊地躺在沙发上。布利克街通常挤满了人，但昨天只偶尔有行人。街道两旁的酒吧和餐馆都很黑。商店里灯火通明，门开着，招手让难得的路人进入。新冠疫情发生仅一周后，下午在格林威治村附近散步感觉很怪异。)"及最后一段"We will come together, from spaces around the world, to meet this new reality. This is who we are. Nothing—not space, nor time—can keep us from moving forward, together. (我们将从世界各地的空间聚集在一起，迎接这一新的现实。这就是我们。没有什么——不是空间，也不是时间——可以阻止我们一起前进。)"可知，疫情让餐馆闭店，街道上人迹罕至，但疫情无法阻止我们前进的脚步。故推知作者写这篇文章的主要目的是为了在疫情期间传递令人振奋的信息。故选C。
