This passage is mainly about . A. the Beijing Olympic Games. B. the Beijing Green Olympics logo C. the meaning of creating the Beijing Olympic logo D. the design of the Beijing Olympic logo D Ten students have stopped complaining about gas prices. Instead, they’re competing in a nationwide contest to redesign the cars. Final competitors were chosen from a field of 60 applicants. "The schools were selected to find technology that will help our country reach the needs for energy sources, so we don’t have to depend on other countries to provide fuel." Pickering said. He is vice chairman of the US House of Representatives Energy and Commerce Committee. The teams received $ 10,000 and a Chevrolet Equinox which would be used as a starting place for modifications. Each team can also get $ 25,000 in parts and software from GM and other sponsors. The cars will be taken to the GM proving grounds for a national competition. It’s the finaleof a three-year competition. In the first year, students designed and worked out their plans. "At the end of the first year, our plans for the hybridwere approved and we received our own Chevrolet Equinox to begin construction. said Amanda McAlpin, leader of the outreach team. In the second year, the students, goal is for their hybrid to exceed the factory Equinox’s fuel efficiency by 50 percent. "Our goal is to place in the top five but increase in the areas we lacked in." McAlpin said. "If we can maintain this strategy, we should be able to obtain our goal." In the final competition this year, GM technicians would examine the cars to approve the safety and make sure they meet all contest rules. "We would like to be in the top half of each event, but they are all different. Every team has their own strategy to win." said a computer engineering major. "By hosting the competition, GM really gets the cream of the cropfrom the top engineering schools across the country." McAlpin said, "Many of our recent graduates who have worked on the car have received jobs with GM." And Pickering agreed, "Their brainpower will give us firepower and horsepower for the future." 【查看更多】

题目列表(包括答案和解析)

As we all know, the concept of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games is “Green Olympics, High-tech Olympics and People’s Olympics.” This concept includes three themes. Among them “Green Olympics” embraces the essence of the 3,000-year long Chinese philosophy, namely harmony and unity of nature and human existence.

On the World Environment Day in 2003, BOCOG (Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2008 Olympic Games) began the Green Office Project. It covers such areas as saving energy and water, trash classification, and use of office equipment, paper recycling, paperless office work and the environmentally friendly behaviors of staff.

On September 24,2005, the logo of the Green Olympics was shown at the Beijing Youth Palace. The logo uses a form of the traditional handwriting. It consists of the crown of a tree and the shape of a human being that are used to create the form of a large tree reaching the sky. The image represents harmony and unity between human beings and nature. Just like swinging colored strips that surround and cross each other, the green lines form a crown of a tree and recall flowers in full bloom, expressing the sustainable(可持续的) development of environmental protection.

No matter when it is, we need green space. Let’s participate in green actions, such as beautifying the environment, protecting the environment and saving resources. Let’s carry the theme of Green Olympics through to the end.
