This is an important question because installing one requires significant public and private investment and adjustment to the built environment.While many programs hav
20、e been launched among much praise, often their popularity has soon declined. Many end up operating at a financial loss and depend on other profitable enterprises to cross-subsidize (交叉补贴) them. Some have resulted in thrown-away bikes becoming an eyesore.Understanding which factors enhance or stop pu
21、blic bike sharing is critical in helping cities decide whether such a program is workable, before considering what design and sitting will work best.Drawing on current knowledge, we discuss the importance of the local landscape, climate, cycling infrastructure (基础设施) and land use. We also touch on o
22、ther factors, such as the legal environment and the characteristics of the bike-sharing program itself.Take natural environment for example. Two natural environment factors are known to affect participation: hilliness and weather. Hilliness discourages balanced bike-sharing use, as users avoid retur
23、ning bicycles to stations on hilltops. Those stations end up being empty, while stations on flat areas are often full, so users cannot find a station to return their bikes.As for weather, ideal temperature ranges vary by the climate zone.

28、n an hour,” says co-creator Omar Yaghi, a chemist at the University of California. “Thats about how much water a person needs to survive in the desert.”7The current device is just a sample. But the technology could be used to supply fresh water to some remote regions of the globe, like the Middle Ea
29、st and North Africa, Yaghi says.“Previous attempts at low-energy water collection functioned below 50 percent relative humidity, while the new device pulled water from air with as low as 20 percent humidity,” Yaghi said.Getting that water out is easy when the air is wet. But drawing water from the d
30、rier air in parched areas is a greater challenge. Spongy (柔软吸水的) materials can take water out from the dry air. Those materials, however, either collect water too slowly or require lots of energy to gather the water.The new device uses a material that avoids both problems. MIT mechanical engineer Ev
31、elyn Wang, and her colleagues remade an existing material composed of electrically charged metal atoms. This metal-organic framework MOF-801, creates a network of sponge like pores (气孔) to trap water vapor. At room temperature, water vapor is collected in the pores. As temperatures rise, the water e
32、scapes into a box beneath the pores. A condenser (冷凝器) in the box cools the vapor, converting it into a drinkable liquid. This entire process takes around two hours.Laboratory tests of the device harvested 2. 8 liters of water per day. The device could be used as a personal water source in dry regio

The problem of water shortage will be solved by MOF-801.DScientists have found living organisms (有机体) that could be 50,000 years old. The organisms were found in ahot, but beautiful cave system in N
36、aica, Mexico. These ancient life forms can be seen only with a microscope. The ancient microbes (微生物 ) were able to exist by eating minerals such as iron and manganese, said Penelope Boston, head of NASAs Astrobiology Institute. If the findings are confirmed, they will show how microbes can survive
37、in extreme conditions.Researchers have been studying the microbes for nine years. Forty different kinds of microbes and some viruses were found in the underground area. The genetic structures of these organisms are different from those of their nearest relatives. That means their closest relative is
38、 about as genetically different as humans are from mushrooms growing in the forest. The caves in Naica are 800 kilometers deep. Before the miners began working in the caves, the area was isolated from the surface and the outside world. Some of the caves are as big as the large religious centers buil

The clothing keeps the crystals safe from human germs or other damage. The researchers could only work for about 20 minutes at a time before they had to go to a room that wa
40、s 38 degrees Celsius to cool down. NASA officials would not let Boston share her findings with scientific 9experts before last weeks announcement. So scientists could not say much about the findings. But Norine Noonan, a biologist with the University of South Florida, said she believed them. “Why ar
41、e we surprised?” Noonan said. “As a biologist, I would say life on Earth is extremely tough and extremely adaptable.” The microbes are not the oldest life forms on Earth. Several years ago, scientists published studies about microbes that may be 500,000 years old and still alive. 32. What do the anc
42、ient microbes survive on?A. Minerals. B. Germs. C. Viruses. D. Crystals.33. Why are mushrooms mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. To show the caves are extremely hot.B. To tell us the microbes are a kind of mushroom. C. To explain how the structures of the microbes are unusual.D. To say the microbes are as

They live longer than scientists predicted.C. They didnt surprise Norine Noonan at all.D. They are the oldest life forms on Earth. 35. What does the

Some life forms can live in extreme conditions.第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 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佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项
45、为多余选项。The Importance of Accessibility AwarenessAt a recent Teen Leadership of Jewish Family Services meeting, people with 10disabilities talked about their lives. 36 However, what amazed me most was the great importance of education about handicap accommodations (残疾人便利设施).One school-teacher who is b
46、lind, and a woman who has used a wheelchair all her life are two important members of the National Group for Disabled Persons, devoted to raising awareness about disabilities. 37 These include handicap parking spots, handrails, and wheelchair ramps. One big concern is the people who take advantage o
47、f aids, such as handicap parking spaces. 38 And the meeting focused on educating the public.Some handicap spots have extra room next to them, marked with the “No Parking” signs. “As long as Im not in the spot, I can take the no-parking area next to it,” some people say. However, the woman who uses a
48、 wheelchair disagrees to this. The space exists to allow someone in a wheelchair to have room to get in or out of their car. 39 Some walkways have handrails next to them to help those who require extra assistance. Whether it is a blind person seeking guidance or an elderly person seeking support, th
49、e rail is there for walking. Sometimes the rail is blocked, by a parked bicycle for instance, and consequently made useless. 40 People who are informed of the rails use would be less likely to mistake it for a bike rack.Meeting some of the people who are affected by the lack of education about accommodations made me see that there is work to be done. If more people were educated about the proper uses of accommodations, there would be
