Shared Mobility:Making Travel Easier for All
Shared mobility services, such as carsharing and bikesharing, have positive effects on the environment.However, access to these services is not equal for everyone.Research shows that shared mobility services are more commonly available in wealthier urban areas.Most users tend to be younger, wealthier, and physically able.To build a sustainable transportation system, it is essential to make these services inclusive for all people.

Some cities have introduced programs to support low-income residents.These programs help increase the use of shared vehicles and reduce dependence on personal cars. Recently, about 70% of micromobility programs in the US have taken measures to better serve disadvantaged groups, such as accepting cash payments and offering non-smartphone booking options.
Still, many barriers remain.Surveys indicate that people in rural areas and those with lower incomes encounter more obstacles when trying to use shared bikes.Cost, lack of familiarity, and limited availability are common problems, as illustrated in the figure.

返回
‹#›
Non-profit organizations are also playing an important role.For example, Shared Mobility Inc., a Buffalo-based NGO,provides free e-bikes for underserved communities and organizes training sessions to promote cycling culture and safety. Mobitwin in Belgium supports elderly people and those with limited mobility by providing affordable rides booked via telephone.Similarly, TIM Carsharing in Austria offers vehicles suitable for wheelchairs and provides child seats upon request.
In conclusion, understanding different needs and making services more adaptable are key steps toward fairness and sustainable urban transportation.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍共享出行服务现状,分析使用障碍及为实现可持续交通采取的包容性措施。

‹#›
1.What is the purpose of making shared mobility services inclusive for all?( )
A.To promote cash payments.
B.To lower transportation costs.
C.To make transportation sustainable.
D.To reduce reliance on private cars.
解析:C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“To build a sustainable transportation system...for all people.”可知,为了构建可持续交通系统,让这些服务惠及所有人是至关重要的。故选C。
C
返回
‹#›
2.Which is the major obstacle preventing low-income urban people from using shared bikes?( )
A.Safety concern.
B.High cost.
C.Lack of familiarity.
D.Limited availability.
解析:B 细节理解题。根据图表可以看出,阻止低收入城市居民使用共享自行车的主要障碍在于高昂的费用。故选B。
B

3.Which measure is taken by TIM Carsharing in Austria?( )
A.Providing free e-bikes.
B.Booking rides by smartphone.
C.Organizing training sessions.
D.Offering wheelchair-friendly vehicles.
解析:D 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“TIM Carsharing in Austria offers vehicles suitable for wheelchairs and provides child seats upon request.”可知,奥地利的TIM Carsharing提供适合轮椅的车辆,并根据要求提供儿童座椅,故D项“提供方便轮椅使用者的车辆”正确。

(2026·浙江省金华十校模拟)Jared was my regular hiking, ice-climbing and mountain-biking fellow.We were on an overnight trip, just a single night, and what he'd brought for dinner was this: Rice.Literally nothing else.
This was not a result of him trying to pack as light as possible, nor was it because he was broke.He wasn't.I tried to convince him to at least put soy sauce (酱油) on it.But no, Jared wasn't having a bar of it.“I don't need it,” he said flatly.
返回
‹#›
Now, if he was talking only about outdoors' meals, I'd almost get it.When you're ravenous after a day of burning off calories walking or climbing or backcountry skiing in the mountains, how awesome do things taste! I know what you're thinking; it's simply that, as the saying goes, hunger is the best sauce.And I agree.Absolutely.
返回
‹#›
But there's more to it than that.Last month, I went down the coast car camping with my family.One morning, my wife made a statement.“I don't see the point,” she said.“It's so much work, camping.But the views at home are better.The beds are more comfortable.It's more peaceful.And at home, the food is better.” I'll admit she's right about the first three.But the food? We had a simple pasta one night, snags another, chicken curry the third, but they all tasted good.Better than at home.And it wasn't simply that we were hungry; it was because we were camping.
返回
‹#›
The real point I want to get to is that meals largely taste so good when I'm camping because I'm reminded of some things easily forgotten at home, where I can simply go to the cupboard, or the supermarket, and get whatever takes my fancy.Life, when you're camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed.More importantly, I am reminded that sadly, and in fact unforgivably, not all of us are.And I am reminded that we, as a society, should do better for them.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过讲述作者的朋友旅行只带米饭以及家人露营的经历,阐述了露营时食物美味的原因,还引发了作者对生活的思考。
返回
‹#›
4.Why did Jared bring only rice for dinner on the trip?( )
A.He didn't like soy sauce.
B.He preferred to travel light.
C.He couldn't afford a better meal.
D.He enjoyed simple outdoor meals.
解析:D 细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知,贾里德坚持只吃米饭,不是因为他尽量轻装上阵,不是因为他没钱吃不起更好的饭菜,文中也没有明确表示他不喜欢酱油,所以,他只吃米饭是因为他喜欢简单的户外餐食。故选D。
D

5.What does the underlined word “ravenous” in the third paragraph mean?( )
A.Tired. B.Starving.
C.Fulfilled. D.Refreshed.
解析:B 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在部分可推知,经过一天的卡路里消耗后,会感到饥饿,食物会变得美味。故“ravenous”的意思是“饥饿的”。故选B。

(2026·山东名校考试联盟模拟)You're in the middle of the afternoon, eyelids heavy, focus slipping.You close your eyes for half an hour and wake up feeling recharged.But later that night, you're tossing and turning in bed, wondering why you can't fall asleep.That midday nap (小睡) which felt so refreshing at the time might be the reason.

Most people experience a natural decline in alertness in the early afternoon, typically between 1 pm and 4 pm.This isn't just due to a heavy lunch—our internal body clock, or circadian rhythms (生理节奏), creates cycles of wakefulness and tiredness throughout the day.The early afternoon lull is part of this rhythm, which is why so many people feel drowsy (昏昏欲睡的) at that time. Studies suggest that a short nap during this period—ideally followed by bright light exposure—can help counteract fatigue, boost alertness, and improve cognitive function without interfering with nighttime sleep.These “power naps” allow the brain to rest without slipping into deep sleep, making it easier to wake up feeling refreshed.

But there's a catch: napping too long may result in waking up feeling worse than before.This is due to “sleep inertia”—the dizziness and disorientation that comes from waking up during deeper sleep stages.Once a nap extends beyond 30 minutes, the brain transitions into slow-wave sleep, making it much harder to wake up.Studies show that waking from deep sleep can leave people feeling sluggish for up to an hour.And if a nap is taken too late in the day, it can eat away from the “sleep pressure build-up”—the body's natural drive for sleep—making it harder to fall asleep at night.

To nap effectively, timing and environment matter.Despite the benefits, napping isn't for everyone.Age, lifestyle and underlying sleep patterns all influence whether naps help or hinder.A good nap is all about strategy—knowing when, how, and if one should nap at all.For some it's a life hack, improving focus and energy.For others, it's a slippery slope into sleep disruption.The key is to experiment and observe how naps affect your overall sleep quality.
