12．（10分）In China，people's living conditions in the cities have changed a lot in the ways of transportation in the past fifty years.
A survey shows that the number of people riding a bike or walking is always decreasing.In 1974，more than 50% of people travelled to work on their own bikes，while by 2014，less than 20%of travellers preferred cycling or walking to work.Now the number becomes much smaller.
At the same time，there was a large increase in the use of cars.In 1974，very few people had a car.By 1994，about a quarter of travellers drove to work.This increased again，until 2014，about one third of travellers drove to work.
What has caused these changes？The main reason is that people's living conditions have changed greatly.With the increasing number of people going by bus or car，fewer and fewer people would like to be cyclists or walkers.
As people enjoyed the convenience and speed of buses and cars，they are less likely to have patience and interest in cycling and walking.In the future，with the development of science and technology，more changes will happen in people's everyday lives.

13．（10分）Trees in cities"live fast but die young"compared to forests in the countryside，warns a new study.
Researchers found that trees in cities die younger than those in the countryside because of the higher levels of CO2.City﹣living trees suffer（遭受）a loss of carbon storage（碳储量）.That means trees produce less energy from the air.
Lan Smith，a PhD student of Boston University in the United States，said，"Cities are in the important position in fighting against rising temperatures and increasing CO₂.We find that tree planting alone may not be enough to keep and increase city canopy cover（树冠覆盖率）.Because of the age and size of the
present canopy，efforts to improve and protect tree health are badly needed for increasing city tree cover and canopy cover."
The research team used a model to watch changes among street trees for several planting and management methods.Researchers also used the model to watch tree growth，death and planting rates（率） both among trees in Boston city and forests in the countryside in Massachusetts.
It was discovered that rates of carbon cycling and growth rates among city trees were nearly four times faster than those in the countryside.However，loss of carbon storage and death rates are also higher，especially death rates are more than double higher than those in countryside forests.
Researchers say planting and protecting will be needed to make sure cities can develop healthily，but more needs to be done to have a better understanding of city trees—which may be different from countryside forests.

D.Because of the higher levels of CO2.
（2）According to the passage，which of the following is TRUE？ 　 　
A.The more carbon storage loses，the more energy the trees produce from the air.
B.If we want to increase city tree cover and canopy cover，we should make great efforts to improve and protect tree health.
C.If we plant enough trees alone，we are sure to increase city canopy cover.
D.Cities do better in fighting against rising temperatures and increasing CO2.
（3）What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us？ 　 　
A.The results of the study.
B.The discoveries from the researchers.
C.The methods of the study.
