26、y destroyed that old myth (神话) about childhood being the happiest period of your life. Childhood may certainly be fairly happy, but its greatest moments cant compare with the joy of being an adult. Who ever asked a six-year-old for opinion?

27、 Adults choose the clothes their children will wear, the books they will read and the friends they will play with. Mother and father are kind but complete dictators (独裁者). This is an adult world.You must have heard these words about how happy it is to be a child. But which adult would honestly chang

28、e places with a child? Every movement you make, every thought you think is observed by some adults. Remember how gentle pressure was given to you with words like “if you dont do as I say, I will.” Im sure you will never forget!Even so, these are only part of childs trouble. No matter how kind and lo

29、ving parents may be, children often suffer from terrible and illogical fears since they cant understand the world around them. They often have such fear in the dark or in the dreams. Adults can share their fears with other adults while children have to face their fears alone.But the most painful par

30、t of childhood is a period when you begin to go out of it, the period when you go into adolescence. Teenagers start to be against their parents and this causes them unhappiness. There is a complete lack of self-confidence during this time. Adolescents pay much attention to their appearance and the i

31、mpression they make on others. They feel shy, awkward and clumsy. Feelings are intense and hearts easily broken. Teenagers experience moments of great happiness or black despair. And through this period, adults seem to be unkind than ever.What a happy time it is to grow up. Suddenly you get your bal

32、ance; the world opens up before you. You are free to choose; you have your own place to live in and your own money to spend. You do not have to ask approval for everything you do. You are no longer laughed at or punished by heartless adults around you. And if sometimes you are laughed at, you know h

33、ow to deal with it. You can simply tell other adults to go to hell: you are one yourself.28Based on the passage, the reason why childhood is not the happiest time is that _.Akids cant get enough love from their parentsBkids are not happy at schoolCparents are often too strict with their kidsDkids do

36、fer some hope to teenagers.DTo set teenagers a target.D In the UK, electric and other low-emission（低排放）cars, vans, and buses could be given special green plates to encourage more people to buy such cars, and promote awareness for “clean” cars.Strange as it may seem, there is some reason to believe t

37、hat something as small as this could make a big difference. Already, similar ideas have been put into effect in Norway, Canada, Latvia, and China, and the results have been encouraging.Elisabeth Costa, director of the Behavioural Insights Team, explains, “Simple changes based on behavioral science c

38、an have a big impact. Green plates would be more noticeable to road users, and this increased attraction can help normalise the idea of clean vehicles, highlighting（使突出）the changing social norms（规范）around vehicle ownership.”Actually, hybrids and electric cars accounted for 5.5% of the cars sold in t

39、he UK in the first half of the year, compared to 4.2% for the same period in 2017.However, colored plates can only go so far. At the end of the day, you need strong, concrete measures if you want to support a market like electric cars. The UK already has generous subsidies（补贴）for electric cars, but

40、a study for the RAC Foundation found that the lack of reliable, easy-to-use charging stations is the main roadblock to people purchasing more electric cars. This was repeated by separate research from AA, the UKs largest motorist association, which found that although 1 in 2 young drivers want elect

41、ric cars, 8 out of 10 drivers feel that the lack of sufficient electrical chargers is the main reason not to buy an electric car.Yet this all shows that more and more people are nearing a tipping point where they are willing to buy electric cars. And a small PR stunt（噱头）, the “coolness factor” of th

42、e colored plates could end up making a difference. Similarly, having red plates for the more polluting cars might also play a role.A spokesman for the Environmental Transport Association said, “While green number plates will be positive PR for low-emission car makers and early adopters of the techno

43、logy alike, to be truly effective any such measures will need to at the same time shame the drivers of the most polluting vehicles.”32Why does the UK give green license plates to cars?ATo promote car sales.BTo beautify the environment in the UK.CTo separate “clean” cars from polluting cars.DTo inspi

44、re people to buy low-emission vehicles.33What does the underlined sentence “colored plates can only go so far” mean?AThe results of giving colored plates are discouraging.BThe measures of giving colored plates will be at an end.CGiving colored plates has a limited impact on promoting “clean” cars.DG

45、iving colored plates will be replaced by strong, concrete measures.34Why do most drivers choose not to buy an electric car?ASubsidies for electric cars are not attractive.BCharging stations are not readily available.CThey arent fond of the green color.DElectric cars are unaffordable to them.35What d

46、id the spokesman for the Environmental Transport Association focus on?ABanning people from buying polluting cars.BContinuing the use of green number plates.CReplacing green plates with red ones.DShaming the drivers of polluting cars into buying “clean” cars.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Most people have deve

47、loped some hobbies at a point in their lives, such as doing sports, playing an instrument, painting, cooking and something else. There are many reasons and skills for taking up a hobby.Realize you have more time than you think.This is probably the first thing that keeps most people away from develop

48、ing a hobby.36 But we waste so much time on social media and television commercials and then worry about the life in which we have no time to develop a hobby.

49、mething longer when you feel that you cannot let another person down? Therefore, get someone jog with you, make music with you, or share recipes with you.

50、u choose so that you cannot blame a lack of “materials” for not doing anything.39For me, this has been the most important step to stick to a hobby.
