Just under a decade ago, faced with a declining economy and rising oil prices, drivers were turning away from gas-powered vehicles and toward hybrid-electric cars (油电混合动力汽车) that promised, over time, to save them millions.
That was then, In recent years, as the economy recovered and gas prices dropped, so has demand for more-fuel-efficient cars. Electric cars and hybrids now make up less than 3% of new-car purchases, down from years past. Roughly 75% of Americas who traded in a hybrid or an electric car this year took home an all-gas car, an 11-point increase from 2015
At the same time, it's unreasonable to expect drivers to change their habits purely because of a sense of duty to build a better world. Buying a Toyota Camry, for example, would save its owner about $400 yearly in gas spending (vs. a similar-size all-gas vehicle). But it would also cost an extra $3000 in advance. For Americans, that payoff isn't worth the investment.
Automakers face this stalemate (僵局)? The government. Thanks to a set of regulations, automakers are required to keep improving their average fuel efficiencies to a certain degree, no matter how oil prices might change.
But starting a true green-car revolution will require more than fuel-efficiency standards. One solution, favored by some economists and environmental activists, is an increase in the gas tax, Which hasn't been raised since 1993. Others have suggested taxing carbon emission(排放), so people will rethink how they drive. In Norway, where drivers pay both fees, the electric cars from Tesla Motors have enjoyed a brief period as the country's top-selling vehicle.
Indeed, the best approach may well be to create the impossible: an electric car that actually offers more value than its gas-powered competitor. Many are trying, from Tesla to GM, which is releasing an inexpensive all-electric car this year. The future of driving is “not going to be determined by gas prices," says economist Jeff Sachs. “It's going to be determined by technology."
1.What change has taken place in the US car market?
A.Car purchases have dropped sharply
B.People are beginning to favor all-gas cars
C.Electric cars have become the most popular
D.Hybrid-electric cars have become more expensive
2.What do Americans think of the Toyota Camry hybrid?
A.It is a good investment
B.It is perfectly comfortable.
C.It has a price disadvantage.
D.It will change bad driving habits.
3.What can we infer about green cars in Norway?
A.They will slow they country's economy.
B.They may be a big potential market.
C.They will cause an increase in the gas tax.
D.They require higher fuel-efficiency standards.
4.Which of the following will Jeff Sachs probably agree with?
A.There will be more electric cars.
B.All-gas cars will be the general trend.
C.Gas-powered cars will cost much more.
D.Technology will affect driving negatively.
Many of America's young adults appear to be in no hurry to move out of their old bedrooms. For the first time on record, living with parents is now the most common choice for millennials (bon from the early 1980s to late 1990s), a study by the Pew Research Center has found. And the percentage of older millennials those aged 25 to 34 who are living at home has reached its highest point (19 percent) on record, Pew analysts said.
Nearly one-third of all millennials live with their parents, slightly more than the proportion who live with a spouse(配偶). It's the first time that living at home has outpaced living with a spouse for this age group since such record-keeping began in 1880. The remaining young adults are living alone, with other relatives, in college dorms, as roommates or under other circumstances.
Jennifer Post, 26, has been living with her parents in Villas, New Jersey, since dropping out of law school two years ago. A law career wasn't a good fit for her, Post decided, and now she's seeking a job in digital media or marketing. Post spends her days on her computer, sending resumes（简历） and refreshing LinkedIn and other job sites. To her parents, it looks as though she's slacking off. "It's definitely a generation gap thing," she said. "I think they literally think I just sit down and watch movies all day."
Declining employment is a factor (因素 ) keeping many 18- to 34-year-olds at home. The share of young people with jobs fell to 71 percent in 2014 from 84 percent in 1960 the year when the percentage of young adults living outside the home reached the highest point. Other factors contributing to more millennials living with parents range from rising apartment rents to heavy student-debt loads to longer periods in college.
Casey Marshella moved back in with her parents in Fairfield, Connecticut, after graduating from Boston University last year. Just this week, she moved into an apartment with her sister. Within weeks, she and a friend — who also lives with her parents — expect to find their own place. Because many people her age share the same circumstances, most sympathize with her. Marshella, 22, says. Still their first question is usually, "So when are you planning on moving out?"
