When young, I loved going on trail（小路） runs. It was my favorite way to escape stress. So, when I was back in my hometown after a tough first year of my Ph. D．program, I thought a trail run was just what I needed. But instead of helping me relax, the run did just the opposite.

After I moved to the city for college, where my runs were on flat concrete paths instead of winding dirt trails, I used a GPS watch. When I went on trail runs again in the country, it constantly reminded me of the fact that I wasn’t keeping up with my usual pace. I turned my watch off, thinking that would allow me to enjoy my surroundings and find the peace I expected, but I worried I was underperforming. “Why can’ t I let go and just enjoy myself?” I wondered. But after some introspection（反省）, I realized why I was struggling—both on trail runs and in graduate school.

Going into my Ph. D．, I had thought that my solid undergraduate track record would set me up for instant success. To my surprise, I was wrong. I lacked confidence in my research abilities which I thought stopped me performing well and I constantly felt my progress was too slow. Other students’ self-confidence and their excellent results made me feel insecure. Finally, one day I broke down in tears in my adviser’ s office.

Then came my visit home: I was having trouble because I hadn’ t properly adjusted my expectations to the differences between an urban run and a trail run.

A Ph. D．is like a trail run: Sometimes you can run fast. Sometimes you might find yourself climbing up a steep, winding trail at a snail’ s pace. And that’ s OK.

One of the most expensive parts of flying is the cost of gas, not to mention the environmental effect it brings. An Israeli startup called Eviation Aircraft hopes to solve the problems. They displayed the world’ s first all-electric passenger airplane this week at the Paris Air Show.

The lightweight plane—playfully called Alice—will be able to fly about 600 miles between charges. So it will focus on transportation between cities. It seats nine passengers and two crew members. A typical flight should cost a customer about $200.

“The fact that we’ re building an electric plane from scratch instead of just refitting an existing plane with a battery means that we can design our aircraft to be more effective and efficient than present planes,” said Eviation co-founder Omer Bar Yohay. He predicts that per seat, per mile, the cost would be equal to that of a taxi or train.

The demand for electrically powered aircraft is projected to reach hundreds of planes per

year within the next decade. The change from gas to electric in power is expected to save millions of dollars in fuel costs, not to mention the environmental benefits including significant reduction of air pollution and noise levels.

When it comes to the new possibilities, Yosef Abramowitz, an energy industry expert, said, “In modern life, it is important to fight climate change and now we have a path to do so in flying.” Abramowitz, a tireless advocate for solar power, added, “The batteries will hopefully be charged with solar energy too.”

To help further save fuel costs, the designers have also invented a “taxibot” that drags planes from the passenger gate to the runway, so the planes needn’ t run their engines.

After appearing at the Paris Air Show, the Alice will travel to the U.S. for further tests. It is expected that the first commercial flights will take off in 2022.

“I think for the first time in a very, very long time, we can look at flight again and talk about the next revolution,” Bar Yohay said. 8．What is the advantage of the new plane? A．It can save more costs. C．It is much faster and cheaper.

B．It is powered by solar energy. D．It can be charged during the flight.

9．What does the underlined part “from scratch” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Without help. C．In secret.

B．From a distance. D．From the very beginning.

10．How did Abramowitz sound when talking about the electric plane? A．Doubtful. C．Stressed.

11．What is the best title for the passage?

A．All-electric Planes Will Take Over the Sky One Day B．The World’ s First All-electric Plane Proved a Success C．The World’ s First All-electric Plane Makes Its Appearance D．Israeli Is Advancing in Making the First All-electric Plane

We tend to think of our dreams as being uniquely personal—nighttime stories built from our own experiences that help us process our day-to-day lives. While dreams can give us a look into our personal selves, scientists have collected data that suggests dreams make their way into our cultural fabric, showing themselves in ways that shape beliefs and expose collective （结构）
