They may even do the same thing while crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing or elsewhere. The rest of us have to evade （避让）them or just stand still to wait for the unavo

21、idable collision （碰撞）. The real problem is that some pedestrians seem to be, at least for the moment, in worlds of their own that are, to them, much more important than the welfare of others. Mechael Horan I loved the letter from Bob Brooks about cyclists （ (Viewpoints, May 29）). I am afraid they se

22、em to think they own the roads. I was walking across Altrincham Road one morning when a cyclist went round me and on being asked what he was doing he shouted at me. The government built a cycle lane on the road but it is hardly used. The police do nothing. What a laugh they are! The cyclists should

23、all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets, fluorescent （发荧光 的）jackets and lights at night and in the morning. They should pay some sort of tax and be fined for not wearing them. Carol Harvey Cyclists jump on and off pavements （which are meant for pedestrians）, ride at speed along t

24、he pavements, and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red. I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the pavement when there was a cycle lane right next to him. Other road users, including horse rides, manage to obey the rules so why not cycl

29、nvesting in actual real estate, but for focusing on virtual reality offices that allow its agents and brokers （中间商）to interact and socialize from anywhere around the globe. Glenn Sanford, eXp Realtys founder and CEO, founded the company a decade ago, soon after the real estate market collapse of 200

30、7. He couldnt afford to buy or rent office space. Whats more important, he figured that focusing on a system that allowed his team to work remotely would help the company avoid possible real estate crises in the future. So eXp Realty relied on services like Google Docs, project management solutions

31、like Trello, and communications app Slack to help its workforce work together in virtual reality. “The virtual campus is a big part of our growth engine. If we were limited to actual offices, the growth weve had simply wouldnt be possible,“ Scott Petronis, chief technology officer of eXp Realty said

32、. Having a virtual campus in the virtual world rather than in the real one apparently has several major advantages. For the most important one, eXp Realty can hire whatever talent they like, no matter where they are. As long as they have Internet connection, they can interact with their colleagues a

33、nd the company management like avatars （虚拟人） because they can walk around the campus, enter various virtual facilities, and interact with each other. While the main focus is on work and brainstorming, eXp Realty is constantly adding fun stuff as well, like riding on a virtual lake and enjoying a dri

If that isnt enough to convince you, the company was recently listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, with fir

C Average age is rising around the worlda demographic （人口统计）change that may pose a significant challenge to efforts to slow down climate change. Hossein

40、 Estiri at Harvard University and Emilio Zagheni of the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research, Germany, have found that energy use increases as we get older, and not just because we tend to get wealthier. An ageing population could mean a greater proportion of society with higher energy use,

41、 their study suggests. They combined two decades, worth of data from thousands of US households and used this to build a model to reveal how energy use varied across 17 age groups between 1987 and 2009. They found that, on average, childrens energy consumption （肖耗）climbs as they grow up, before dipp

42、ing slightly when they leave home. Consumption then rises again when people hit their 30s, before briefly dropping after 55, and then beginning to climb again. The study involved factors such as income, local climate and the age, type and size of a persons home. The increase in energy use at various

43、 points in our lifespan （寿命）seems to be the result of life style and how our needs change as we age. Why does demand grow so much in our 30s? “We need more of everything. More space, a bigger TV two fridges,“ says Estiri. The study found that, in warmer parts of the US, energy use increases in peopl

44、e over the age of 65probably as a result of increased use of air conditioning, This suggests that there is a feedback effect between climate change and an ageing population that will only make matters worse. Heat waves have become more common in the US in recent years and are expected to become more

45、 frequent due to global warming. More older people using more electrical energy to keep cool as temperatures rise could add to emissions （排放），and thus drive more warming until our energy supply becomes entirely fossil fuel-free. “This confluence （汇集） of population, ageing and climate change on energ

46、y demand is really important to start thin king about,“ says Estiri. Benjamin Sovacool at the University of Sussex, UK, says the work shows the importance of demographics when it comes to cutting carbon emissions. Most modelling of climate change mitigation （减缓气候变化的模型） assumes peoples energy consump

47、tion either stays the same or only changes by a small amount over time. “This study directly challenges that entire body of research by forcing it to fight with the temporality and complexity of the consumption of energy, says Sovacool. Catherine Mitchell at the University of Exeter, UK, says the re

48、search could have an important influence on policy makers. “What the paper says is that there is a lot of work about how buildings use energy, but probably not enough about how the people in them use energy,“ she says. 45. By saying “not just because we tend to get wealthier“ in Paragraph 2, the wri

49、ter probably means that _ . A. poor people cant bring down the high demand for energy B. a comfortable life is not the main cause of in creased energy use C. there are some other reasons leading to the increase in energy consumption D. people being wealthy or not has nothing to do with the rise of energy consumption 46. What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 3? A. Children consumes more energy when they leave home. B. Energy cons
