B In February, before the outbreak of Covid-19, I sold my old-style car. I thought it wouldn't be a big deal: I live in London within walking distance of three subway stations and countless bus stops. I own a bike；there are taxis and supermarket delivery services, and I joined a car-share program, all of which can save me a big sum of money to fund my future green transport. Then the lockdown (封锁) happened and being car-free suddenly felt like a big deal. I couldn't get a supermarket delivery. I couldn't take my broken garden chairs to the recycling center. And a few days into lockdown, somebody stole my bike! When the lockdown stopped, it just got worse. I was eager to go to the countryside or beach, but taking public transport or a taxi felt like too much of a risk. The car-share program turned out to be unbelievably difficult to deal with—every area has its own rules about where you can and can't park, and taking a car-share vehicle beyond the city is impossible. And renting a car is clearly expensive and time- consuming. So last month I did a U-turn. I felt guilty but also a sense of satisfaction: I had tried, but the pandemic (疫情) beat me. Most of all, I got freedom, sitting behind the wheel (方向盘) and getting to wherever I want. Don't get me wrong. I still expect to travel without creating greenhouse gases and pollution.

Why did the author sell his car in the first paragraph？ A. His car was too old to drive. B. He tried to lead a greener life. C. He felt a car was no longer useful. D.

I chose another path to life. 26. What's the author's attitude toward driving a car in the last paragraph？ A. doubtful B. concerned C. positive D. uncertain 27. Which of the following is the best title for the text？ A. A greener choice in life B. Back behind the wheel C. How to survive the lockdown D. The disadvantages of public transport C An early morning winter storm had brought several inches of snow to my small town in the mountains. Schools were canceled, roads were dangerous and all I wanted to do was to stay in bed. Still, I knew I had to get the day started so I put on warm clothes and walked outside. The snow got all over my shoes. The cold wind dried my lips and my eyes. My 47-year-old back ached in anticipation ( 预想 ) of the shoveling ( 铲雪 ) I would have to do if the snow didn't stop soon. Yet, when I looked out on the white blanket that covered the ground, I couldn't help but smile a bit. It was so beautiful. It softened the bare trees and hid the dead grass. In the distance I could hear the sound of the snowplow on the road, the barking of a happy dog and the laughter of c
