19、s talented. During his first year in the university, he had a pain in his right knee, which was so bad that he couldnt stand up. He went to the doctor for tests. They showed that he had cancer. He was going to lose his leg and be given an artificial one. Terrys family and friends all gave him fantas

20、tic support. Terry said that he knew all those people really cared and helped him. He decided to face it with bravery.One night Terry was looking through an article about Dick Traum, who also had an artificial leg and had run in the New York Marathon. “If he can do it,” thought Terry, “I can, too. I

21、n fact, Ill run across Canada and raise money for cancer research. It will be a Marathon of Hope!”For the next 16 months, Terry had special treatments for his cancer. And then he also began to run a little every day. Each day he ran a little farther. It is 5,300 miles across Canada. Terry hoped to r

22、un thirty to forty miles a day so that it would take him six months. Most of all, he hoped to raise $1 million for cancer research. Because Terry had an artificial leg, running wasnt easy or straightforward. He had to move by jumping on one foot twice and then take a long step with his real leg. Alt

23、hough it looked awkward, he still kept on running. His action made people join him as he ran: children, football stars, wheelchair athletes and even his brother, Darrell. As Terry ran, people waved and cheered. So much money was donated that the volunteers used large garbage bags so everyone could g

24、ive. Then, outside Thunder Bay, Ontario, Terry felt a sharp pain in his chest. The pain was from cancer; this time in his lungs. He had to abandon the Marathon after 3, 339 miles.

28、erous. B. Cooperative. C. Determined. D. Creative. CThe good news is that more people bought electric cars in 2020. The bad news is that SUVs continued to grow in popularity, too. The fall in oil consumption due to the first trend was completely cancelled out by the second, say Laura Cozzi and Apost

29、olos Petropoulos at the International Energy Agency (IEA) in France.The growing popularity of SUVs is making it even harder to cut carbon dioxide emissions（排放）and meet climate goals. “Policy-makers need to find ways to persuade consumers to choose smaller and more efficient cars,” says Petropoulos.O

30、il consumption by conventional cars not including SUVs is estimated to have fallen 10 percent in 2020, or by more than 1.8 million barrels（桶）a day, Cozzi and Petropoulos say in a commentary published by the IEA on 15 January. Most of this fall was due to reduced travel and is likely to be temporary.

31、But a small part of the drop, around 40,000 barrels a day, was as a result of the increased share of electric vehicles (EVs). “We have seen a skyrocketing of global electric car sales in 2020,” says Petropoulos. Unfortunately, the number of SUVs increased as well. While overall car sales fell in 202

32、0, 42 percent of buyers chose SUVs, up around three percentage points from 2019.Globally, there are now more than 280 million SUVs being driven, up from fewer than 50 million in 2010. On average, SUVs consume 20 percent more energy per kilometre than a medium-sized car.The increase in SUVs in 2020 l

33、ed to a rise in oil consumption that cancelled out the effect of electric cars, says Petropoulos. Much the same is true over the past decade. Between 2010 and 2020, global CO2 emissions from conventional cars fell by nearly 350 megatonnes, due to factors such as fuel efficiency improvements as well

34、as the switch to electric cars. Emissions from SUVs rose by more than 500 megatonnes.“While the growth in EVs is encouraging, the increase in SUVs is heart-breaking,” says Glen Peters at the CICERO climate research centre in Norway.There are many reasons for the growing popularity of SUVs, says Petr

35、opoulos. Rising prosperity（繁荣）in many countries means more people are able to afford them, for instance. Some people see them as a symbol of social position. SUVs are also heavily advertised by car-makers, he says, whose profits are higher on these vehicles.There are now some electric SUVs available

36、. “Hopefully, in time, you will see electric vehicles entering the SUV market,” says Peters.Even if it happens, switching to electric SUVs isnt an ideal solution. Due to their size and bigger batteries, it takes more resources to build electric SUVs, and they consume around 15 percent more electrici

37、ty. Higher electricity demand makes it harder to green the electricity supply.27. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? A. The SUVs driven in 2019 reached up to 280 million.B. Electric cars appeared a sharp decline in sales in 2020. C. Buyers of SUVs in 2020 increased 4

38、2 percent than those in 2019.D. Global SUVs being driven now are over five times as many as those in 2010.28. From the increase of SUVs, we can infer _. A. it could have harmful consequences for the air qualityB. the oil consumption will increase and the price will fallC. people all over the world a

39、re getting wealthier than beforeD. the car-makers think its unnecessary to advertise any more29. What can we conclude from the passage? A. The purchases of SUVs should be reduced. B. The SUVs should be discontinued immediately.C. The awareness of using electric cars needs to be improved.D. Increasin

40、g electric cars can solve the problem of oil consumption.30. Whats the authors attitude to electric SUVs? A. Unconcerned. B. Disapproving. C. Supportive. D. Uncertain. DIt is the season for taking the time to reflect on what were thankful for in life. Spending that time with friends and family to gi

41、ve thanks is what makes the holidays so special. But why should limit it to just a few weeks in the year? Gratitude（感恩）is a muscle we should strengthen year-round to make us healthier, happier humans and leaders.Gratitude builds empathy. We often take for granted the simple things in life. Those who

42、 recognize the goodness in life, no matter how simple or automatic, are more likely to be sensitive to the needs of others and to help whenever they can. Being empathetic to others opinions, experiences and backgrounds will make you a better professional, no matter your career.Through his research,

43、Emmons, a leading researcher, found that grateful people reported feeling healthier, both mentally and physically. Specifically, those who were grateful were 25 percent happier than those who werent. In the workplace, well-being（健康快乐）is a crucial topic when it comes to preventing employee burn-out a

44、nd promoting engagement. Beyond the research that shows that employees who are shown that they are appreciated are more productive by 50 percent, caring for your employees well-being is simply the right thing to do. Offering fitness classes or carrying out flexible work schedules are just a few thin

45、gs that, when paired with gratitude, can lead to more productive, engaged and happier working professionals. Working in a developing, fast-paced industry, we are often surrounded by ambitious people who are always striving（奋斗）for more and better. Gratitude makes us more self-aware. It challenges us

46、to reflect in the moment instead of always thinking about the future. It starts by paying attention to whats going on in our life, and that true self-awareness is a key factor to being successful in our career.Gratitude is a powerful tool for making relationships stronger, both at work and in our pe

47、rsonal life. People who express their gratitude tend to be more willing to forgive others and therefore able to create relatively long-lasting connections.During my month-long vacation, I made it a point to be reflective during the time I had without disturbances or deadlines. Part of that was makin

48、g a mental list of the people, things and experiences I was grateful for in my life. I decided to reach out to my fifth-grade teacher and thank her for being positive instructor and a strong influence on my life.The old saying goes “Its never too late to say youre sorry,” but the same is true of gratitude. Taking the time to thank people for their work, kindness or emp
