2.Our character,(41)A,is a combination of our habits."Sow a thought,harvest an action; sow an action,harvest a habit; sow a habit,harvest a character; sow a character,harvest a(42)C,"the saying goes.

2.Electric cars are dirty.In fact,not only are they dirty,but they might even be more dirty than their gasoline-powered cousins.
People in California love to talk about"zero-emissions (排放) vehicles",but people in California seem to   be clueless about where electricity comes from.Power plants mostly use fire to make it.Apart from the few people who have their roofs covered with solar cells,we get our electricity from generators (發(fā)電機).Generators are fueled by something----usually coal,oil,but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants.There are a few wind farms and geothermal (地熱) plants as well,but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.
In other words,those"zero-emissions"cars are likely coal-burning cars.Because the coal is burned somewhere else,it looks clean.It is not true.It's as if the California Greens are covering their eyes----"If I can't see it,it's not happening."Gasoline is an extremely efficient way to power a vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it.But when you take that gas (or another fuel) and first use it to make electricity,you waste a nice part of that energy,mostly in the form of wasted heat--at the generator,through the transmission lines,etc.
A gallon of gas may drive your car 25miles.But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won't get you nearly as far---so electric cars burn more fuel than gasoline-powered ones.If our electricity came mostly from wind or geothermal,or solar,then an electric car truly would be clean.But for political,technical,and economic reasons,we don't use much of those energy sources.
In addition,electric cars'batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill (垃圾填埋場).And finally,when cars are the polluters,the pollution is spread across all the roads.When it's a power plant,though,all the junk is in one place.Nature is very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated,but it takes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot.

29.Which of the following words can replace"be clueless about"in Paragraph 2?A
A.fail to understand.  B.be familiar with.
C.be curious about.    D.show their interest in.
30.The electricity we get from a gallon of gas may make our car runB.
A.a(chǎn)t least 25miles      B.less than 25miles
C.more than 25miles     D.a(chǎn)s far as 25miles
31.In the author's opinion,compared with cars using gas,electric cars are moreC.
A.efficient             B.expensive
C.harmful               D.environmentally-friendly
32.It can be inferred from the passage thatD.
A.electric cars'batteries are no longer poisonous in the landfill
B.now electric cars are used more than their gasoline-powered cousins
C.zero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environment
D.electric cars are not clean since we get electricity mainly by burning something.

3.Dear Alcohol,
    You've been around forever.I can remember all the pain you've caused for me.
Do you remember the night you almost took my father's life?I do.He loves you.Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me.He's addicted(上癮) to you,to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them.You just sat back and laughed as his car went spinning through the street,crashing into two other cars.He wasn't the only one hurt by you that night.
    Do you remember the night of my first high school party?You were there.My friends were intrigued by you.They treated you as if they were never going to see you again,drinking all of you that they could.I spent two hours that night helping my friends who had fallen completely.Two 15-year-old girls slept in hospital beds that night thanks to you.
   Do you remember the night when you took advantage of my 17-year-old neighbor who had to drive to pick up his sister from her dance lessons?Do you know how we all felt when he hit another car and killed the two people in the other car?He died the next morning too.His sister walked home from her dance lesson,and passed police cars and a crowd of people gathering on the sidewalk just two blocks away from the dance studio.She didn't realize her brother was in the middle of it all.She never saw him again.And it's all your fault.
I wish you'd walk out of my life forever.I don't want anything to do with you.Look at all the pain you've caused.Sure,you've made people happy too from time to time.But the damage you've caused in the lives of millions is inexcusable.Stop luring (引誘) in the people I love.Stop hurting me,please.
Sincerely,
Anonymous
