"As a young girl from the circumstances that I come from，I would never have thought something like this would ever happen to me.I'm speechless，I'm overjoyed，I'm amazed.This is just an extraordinary achievement for me，" Ms.Thorpe said.
Ms.Thorpe teaches English to 12th-graders at the International High School Langley Park，where 95 percent of pupils are from low-income families.She redesigned their courses for the English department to make it culturally relevant to her pupils who are from mostly Africa，the Middle East，the Caribbean，and South America.Since then，her English language learners have shown a 40 percent increase in their reading.

She plans to use the prize money to give less well-off pupils an opportunity of receiving a third level education. "Every person deserves the right to education and I want to be that person who champions that for them.I plan to use the money to help students worldwide access higher education，" she said. "Students are the reason I'm here，so I plan to use that to promote them and create a better future for them."

3．With nearly a quarter of global greenhouse gas coming from all types of transportation，can we keep ourselves off gas-powered vehicles to avoid the worst effects？As more governments push for urgent action on climate change，quite a few companies are betting their future - that millions of consumers are finally ready for electricity-powered vehicles.Modern battery-powered cars are selling fast and zero- emission（排放）planes are coming.These changes，both leading to a more sustainable future，are reinventing how we get from here to there.
Cars and trucks are undergoing their greatest improvement since the automobile's（汽车）existence more than a century ago.Almost overnight，the era of the electric car has arrived.Electricity has the advantage that it works without smell and with less noise.Global annual sales of electric vehicles are expected to soar from just over 3 million today to 14 million by 2025.Just a month after Ford unveiled an electric version of the popular F-150，customers had reserved more than 100，000 of jye.aim.The price is about ＄10，000 above the gas-powered one，but Ford says the electric model will cost much less to maintain.Everything creating a green revolution on the ground is of limited help in the sky for the time being.
High-storage batteries are useless at present when it comes to the technological challenge of launching a few hundred people into the sky and carrying them thousands of miles.No battery yet invented can power，say，a Boeing 747 from New York to London.Promising improvements，however，do add up.Developments with zero-emission，battery-powered electric engines are already happening in commercial flight，involving trips of limited duration and distance.Airlines specializing in short journeys with small planes will lead the way to electric flight.
Our planet's health depends on zeroing out carbon dioxide emissions by 2050，and yet，by the timetable needed to address the climate challenge，the shift away from gas-powered vehicles remains far too slow.Nevertheless，the train has left the station.Someday，electric-powered transportation will be as common as air.

A．To reinvent the way we travel.
B．To cut the costs of car production.
C．To improve the quality of products.
D．To pursue sustainable development.
（2）What do we know about the electric car？
A．It came into use a century ago.
B．It enjoys increasing popularity.

D．It costs less than the gas-powered one.
（3）What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3？
A．To show the disadvantages of battery power.
B．To emphasize the significance of short flights.
C．To stress the future prospects of electric planes.
D．To state the developments of commercial flight.
（4）What does the author mean by saying "the train has left the station"？

Daniel got a job as a delivery man to work his way through college.His parents couldn't save up all the money he needed to get into law school，so since he was 15，he would take summer jobs and find some other jobs between studies to earn extra cash.
The boy was determined and every day he would wake up at 5 a.m.，summer or winter，riding on his old bike to deliver parcels.It wasn't an easy job，especially during winter.Besides that，his old bike was slow，making things harder.But that wasn't a problem for Daniel.
Daniel's schedule was always the same every day and people in the neighborhood already knew him.
He called them by their names，and they would often wave and greet him as he passed.
It was a normal day and Daniel was delivering parcels as usual. "Morning，Daniel!Check out my brand-new mountain bike!" called out a man whose home Daniel visited frequently. "Morning，Mr.Warren!That's a really fancy bike!" Daniel screamed back at him as he rode towards his first delivery.He couldn't help imagining what it would feel like to own a bike like the one Mr.Warren had just shown him. "My deliveries would double with that，" he thought longingly.
Suddenly，Daniel lost balance and fell on the road.He got up and leaned the bike against the wall to see what had happened.He found a nail stuck in the back tire（轮胎）and he unluckily had a flat tire.
As he turned around and tried to think of what to do，he saw something unusual.A strange man Daniel had never seen before furtively（鬼鬼祟祟地）looked around and placed a package under his jacket. "Hey!" Daniel shouted at the man. "Hey there!What are you doing？That's not yours!" The man heard Daniel and started to run as fast as he could.
注意：1.续写词数应为 150 左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
After having a look at his bike's flat tire，Daniel quickly started to run after the man.
