31、t Emissions TestsA The pitch : Volkswagen promised consumers that its diesel-engine cars were not only fuel efficient but also clean enough to meet U.S. Environmental Protection Agency air-quality standards. American consumers scrambled to get behind the wheel of Volkswagen '“sgreendiesels, w”hi

32、ch combined high fuel economy, great performance, and the cachet of driving an eco-friendly European vehicle.B The hitch: American air-quality standards are very different from those in Europe. European emissions standards are more focused on greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, primarily) and fuel eco

33、nomy, whileU.S. standards are aimed at limiting smog and adverse health effects, so they target six principal pollutants, such as particulate matter and carbon monoxide. To span this divide, Volkswagen developed a secret sauce that allowed models to pass theE PA' stest.C The fallout : The secret

34、 sauce, it was revealed last year, turned out to be good old-fashioned cheating. Every Volkswagen diesel was equipped with a“ defeatdevice ”software that detected when the car was undergoing emissions testing, says the EPAthat triggered a tightening of the car ' esmissions-control system and all

35、owed it to meet emissions standards in the lab. But as soon as the car came off the test treadmill, the engine snapped back to snazzy life, spewing up to 40 times the allowable limit of nitrogen oxide (NOX), which causes respiratory ailments, especially in fragile populations such as the elderly and

36、 young children with asthma.D The company has fessed up to the cheating, but that didn ' sttop the EPA from going after it. In June, Volkswagen agreed to pay up to $14.7 billion to settle claims with dissatisfied car owners and to answer for violations of the Clean Air Act. If the engineers who

37、designed the cheat told themselves they were hurting no one, they were wrong: Harvard and MIT scientists estimate that the added NOX emissions could cause about 60 early deaths in the United States alone. Pro Sports Teams: Paid to Be PatrioticE The pitch : Sports stadiums are among the most patrioti

38、c places in America. There you might witness a tear-jerking surprise reunion of a soldier just home from Afghanistan with his family, on field reenlistment ceremonies, Air Force flyovers, and more. It 'ens ough to put a lump in our throats and leave us thanking the individual teams for their com

39、mitment to our servicemen and women.F The hitch : In 2015, it was revealed that what sports fans had assumedw ere genuine shows of support for the armed forces by teams in the NFL, the NBA, the NHL, Major League Baseball, and Major League Soccer had actually been business deals designed for profit.

40、It wasn 'that t the sports teams had never staged sincere shows of patriotism; however,i t ' dsoubtful the fans would have respondedso emotionally to all these spectacles had they understood that many of them were lucrative recruiting advertisements, paid for by the Department of Defense.G T

41、he fallout : Arizona senators Jeff Flake and John McCain launched an investigation and published a damning report on “paid patriotism.” They foundthat the National Guard, the biggest“haadd dvreortpisperd, mil”lions on sportsteams while simultaneously appealing to Congress for funding to meet a $100

42、million budget shortfall. (A typical example blasted by the senators: a $20,000 payout to the New York Jets to recognize local Army National Guard soldiers as hometown heroes on the video boarads, well as Coaches Club access for the recognized soldiers and three guests.) The senators added that the

43、DOD, operating with a “ complet elack of internal controls c”ouldn ' prtove that paid patriotism had helped recruitment.H It 'cesr tainly easy to be angry with the Department of Defense for wasting money on potentially fruitless advertising. But neither the leagues nor the individual teams s

44、hould get a pass. After all, they were all too eager to benefit from our emotions.I In response to the report, the Department of Defense issued new guidelines that banned paid patriotism. In May, after conducting an audit, the NFL announced it identified $723,734 spent between 2012 and 2015 that “ma

45、yh ave been mistakenly applied to appreciation activities rather than recruitment efforts, ” which would be returned in full to taxpayers.Coca-Cola: Sugarcoated NewsJ The pitch : “Ther eis virtually no compelling evidence that fast food and sugary drinks cause obesity, s”aid Steven Blair of Global E

46、nergy Balance Network in a video announcing the launch of that scientific research organization. Goodhealth, claimed GEBN, is achieved when an individual balances calories consumed with calories burned.HillK The hitch : GEBN wasn' etxactly an objective source. In 2014, James Hill, PhD, of the Un

47、iversity of Colorado had e-mailed Coca-Cola executives:“It is not fair that Coca-Cola is been singled out as theN o.1 villain in the obesity world, wrote. “ I watnot help your company avoid the image of being a problem in people 's lives. ”-C oClao caontributed $1 million to support the creation

48、 of the organization. Hill and Blair gave obesity-related media interviews that put some emphasis on calories out than calories in, without any disclosure of their ties to Coke.L The fallout : After a New York Times article exposed the special relationship between Coca-Cola and GEBN, the two parted

49、ways. GEBN soon shut down and returned the $1million to the company. Coke' sC EO, Muhtar Kent, has acknowledged an “ insufficientamount of transparency a”nd flaws in Coke' s approach to public health. The company'schief science and health officer retired in the wake of the scandal, and C

50、oke has since rolled out an oversight committee and a sales strategy that focuses on smaller cans and bottles.M This may not have been the first time the company has bungled in public health sphere. According to theT imes, back in 2001, Coca-Cola sponsored a campaign called “H2No, ”in which waitstaf

51、f at some restaurants were trained to correct diners ' troublesome practice of ordering tap water insteaCdo okfe.36. People can see reunions of soldiers with their families in sports field.37. People are inclined to get mad at the Department of Defense for funding advertisements which have no us

52、e in recruitment.38. Europe diversifies from USA in the emission criteria.39. After the implementation of the guideline that forbid paid patriotism, a large amount of money are collected back to citizens.40. Not all of the shows in sports stadiums are faked to be patriotic.41. Workers in GEBN helped

53、 Coca-Cola get rid of the reputation of obesity source, since Coca-Cola donates money to help the establishment of GEBN.42. After the scandal, Coca-Cola has switched its marketing strategy to produce smaller size of cola.43. Coca-cola got stuck in their public image before, for it urged people to dr

54、ink cola rather than tap water.44. In real life, Volkswagen 'esn gine releases pollutants which surpass the emission limitation, although it can pass the EPA' stest.45. GEBN argues that it still cannot conclusively prove that sugary drinks willcontribute to overweight.Section CPassage One Qu

55、estions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Attitudes toward new technologies often along generational lines. That is, generally, younger people tend to outnumber older people on the front end of a technological shift.It is not always the case, though. When you look at attitudes toward drive

56、rless cars, there doesn't seem to be a clear generational divide. The public overall is split on whether they'd like to use a driverless car. In a study last year, of all people surveyed, 48 percent said they wanted to ride in one, while 50 percent did not.The face that attitudes toward self

57、-driving cars appear to be so steady across generations suggests how transformative the shift to driverless cars could be. Not everyone wants a driverless car now-and no one can get one yet-but among those who are open to them, every age group is similarly engaged.Actually, this isn't surprising

58、. Whereas older generations are sometime reluctant to adopt new technologies, driverless cars promise real value to these age groups in particular. Older adults, especially those with limited mobility or difficulty driving on their own, are one of the classic use eases for driverless cars.This is especially interesting when you consider that younger people are generally more interested in travel-related technologies than older ones.When it comes to driverless cars, differences in attitude are more pronounced based on factors not related to age.
