Nuclear energy is ne f the cleanest pwer n earth. It is cleaner than any energy surce except wind. But that desn’t necessarily mean nuclear is the lng-term slutin fr the wrld because nuclear material is perhaps the mst pisnus matter n earth. In additin, uranium, the element mst cmmnly used in nuclear reactrs, is nt in limitless supply. But the biggest prblem is nuclear waste.
Hw can we deal with nuclear waste? The answer is simple—put them smewhere where they can stay, undisturbed, islated, frever. Finland is building just that. This regin is largely lacking in natural disasters. It really desn’t encunter any natural phenmenn that culd damage a nuclear waste strage site, especially if it’s 1, 500 feet undergrund. Beneath an island n the Finnish Baltic Sea cast, the cuntry is digging. They’ re building the very first permanent nuclear waste strage facility in the wrld in the stable bedrck 1,500 feet belw.
Currently they’ re just finishing their dig dwn, then very sn they’ll start filling the facility with nuclear waste. They’ll dig lng tunnels with small hles in which they’ll place nuclear waste then backfill the tunnels with clay t be left frever.
With this system, there’s near zer risk f nuclear material leaking ut int the grundwater and, nce it’s filled in the year 2120, it can just be left, frever. Because the material will be s far dwn and s difficult t get t, n human management will be necessary nce cmpleted.
N security, n maintenance, nthing which means it shuld be truly secure, but befre leaving it, Finland needs t fight against ne thing—human nature. As curius beings, it’s hard t fight a persn’s urge f discvery. If smene finds a mysterius structure frm thusands f years ag, it’d just be natural t want t pen it up, and that’s a prblem fr nuclear waste sites.
We essentially did just that with the pyramids in Egypt. These structures were built as the final, permanent resting places and we pened them up because we were curius. Opening the nuclear strage facilities wuld release radiatin int a future civilizatin, s we have t tell them t leave the sites alne, but that’s easier said than dne.
4. Why is Finland building a nuclear strage site deep undergrund?
A. The tunnels there are easy t dig.B. The supply f uranium is limited.
C. Mdern technlgy makes it pssible.D. N natural disaster can influence the site.
5. What human nature des the authr wrry abut?
A. Being curius.B. A desire fr security.
C. Being adventurus.D. A desire fr cntrl.
6. What is the authr’s attitude tward Finland’s actin?
A. Supprtive.B. Tlerant.C. Dubtful.D. Pessimistic.
7. Why are the pyramids in Egypt mentined?
A. T aruse peple’s curisity.B. T predict the site’s develpment.
C. T illustrate the authr’s cncern.D. T stress the imprtance f the prject.
C
The best advertisement fr public transprtatin is seeing a bus whsh past lines f cars stuck in traffic. When transit is cnvenient, cmfrtable, affrdable and faster than driving, the service practically sells itself. That’s why a recent bus-lane bm in Ls Angeles is s welcme.
Since 2019, Metr and the city’s Department f Transprtatin have rlled ut nine new segments (路段) fr a ttal f 40 miles f bus lanes n sme f the mst crwded streets with high bus ridership, such as La Brea Avenue, Venice Bulevard and Alvarad Street. The gal is t have 100 miles in place befre the 2028 Olympics.
The result has been faster, mre reliable service fr passengers—and fr drivers stuck in traffic, maybe even a little bus envy. Better bus service is essential t get peple t jbs, schls and pprtunities, and t entice drivers ut f cars t help reduce planet warming emissins.
Great transfrmatin has taken place since. Transit advcates have pressed Metr and elected fficials t stp treating bus riders as an afterthught. Frmer Cuncilmember Mike Bnin, wh als sat n Metr’s gverning bard, pushed fr the creatin f the Bus Speed and Reliability Wrking Grup. With a clear gal—t speed up the buses—and a mandate (授权) frm plitical leaders, staff at the tw agencies were able t cut thrugh bureaucratic barriers that ften stymie (阻碍) public wrks prjects.
Bus Rapid Transit, r busways, with dedicated lanes and special stps, have faced resistance frm sme residents and business wners, wh wrry abut lsing car lanes r parking. The cmprmise is that mst bus riders get the benefit f bus lanes nly during rush hurs, frm 7 t 10 a. m. and 4 t 7 p. m. These rush-hur lanes will demnstrate the benefits f giving peple fast, cnvenient bus service, s L. A. ‘s plitical leaders will whleheartedly supprt mre dedicated busways and even 24-hur bus lanes.
8. What have Metr and the city’s Department f Transprtatin dne?
A. Making preparatins fr the 2028 Olympics.
B. Demanding the buses t run 40 miles per hur.
C. Arranging special bus lanes during rush hurs.
D. Calling n citizens t take public transprtatin.
9. What des the underlined wrd “entice” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Attract.B. Order.C. Frce.D. Beg.
10. What led t the transfrmatin?
A. Plitics.B. Public awareness.C. Ecnmy.D. Marketing management.
11. What des the last paragraph imply?
A. Sme residents resist busways.B. Mre car lanes r parking will be lst.
C. Business wners cnflict with bus riders.D. Public transprtatin may get mre supprt.
D
Is future yu…yu? It might seem like a strange philsphical questin. But the answer t hw yu think abut yur future self culd make the difference between decisins yu ultimately find satisfying and nes yu might eventually regret.
The brain patterns that emerge n an MRI (核磁共振) when peple think abut their future selves mst resemble the brain patterns that arise when they think abut strangers. This finding suggests that, in the mind’s eye, ur future selves lk like ther peple. If yu see future yu as a different persn, why shuld yu save mney, eat healthier r exercise mre regularly t benefit that stranger?
Hwever, if yu see the interests f yur distant self as mre like thse f yur present self, yu are cnsiderably mre likely t d things tday that benefit yu tmrrw. A paper in the jurnal PLOS One revealed that cllege students wh experienced a greater sense f cnnectin and similarity t their future selves were mre likely t achieve academic success. Relatinships with ur future selves als matter fr general psychlgical well-being. In a prject led by Jseph Reiff, which includes 5,000 adults age 20 t 75, he fund that thse wh perceived a great verlap (重叠) in traits between their current and future selves ended up being mre satisfied with their lives 10 years after filling ut the initial survey.
S hw can we better befriend ur future selves and feel mre cnnected t their fates? The psychlgical mindset with what we call “vividness interventins” wrks. We have fund, fr instance, that shwing peple images f their lder, grayer selves increases intentins t save fr the lng term. Besides, yu might try writing a letter t—and then frm—yur future self. As demnstrated by Yuta Chishima and Anne Wilsn in their 2020 study in the jurnal Self and Identity, when high-schl students engaged in this type f “send-and-reply” exercise, they experienced elevated levels f feelings f similarity with their future selves.
Letter-writing and visualizatin exercises are just a cuple f ways we can cnnect with ur future selves and beynd, but the larger lessn here is clear: If we can treat ur distant selves as if they are peple we lve, care abut and want t supprt, we can start making chices fr them that imprve ur lives—bth tday and tmrrw.
12. What’s the functin f paragraph 2?
A. Generating further discussin.B. Intrducing a research result.
C. Shwing the effect f the finding.D. Cncluding varius viewpints.
13. Hw des the authr prve his statements?
A. By ffering relevant statistics.B. By using qutatins.
C. By referring t previus findings.D. By making cmparisns.
14. What is paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. Benefits f befriending ur future selves.B. Ways f cnnecting with ur future selves.
C. Methds f changing psychlgical mindsets.D. Pssibilities f us becming ur future selves.
15. What des the article want t tell us?
A. Making future plans makes a difference.B. Our future selves lk like ther peple.
C. Getting t knw yur future self benefits.D. Yur chice determines future happiness.
