I was backpacking there by myself, and I somehow ended up in the middle of nowhere in Botswana. I was planning to travel to Namibia, but I had no idea how to get there because there was a national park between me and the Namibian border. I spoke to the local people and they told me that there were no buses, but it was possible to hitchhike. I got one to the entrance of the national park, where I then waited for my next ride. I didn’t have to wait for long; the first car that drove past picked me up. It was a pickup truck already carrying loads of people, but I managed to squeeze in. The journey through the national park was exciting and we saw elephants and giraffes on the way. Then something un-expected happened, a hippo (河马) traffic accident. Yes, you read that right! There was an-other car driving towards us when a hippo that appeared out of nowhere ran suddenly to and hit the car heavily. Hippos are the most dangerous animals in Africa, and yes, they are often found to attack cars passing by. I had gotten terrible meetings with hippos before, but this was the first time I saw a hippo traffic accident. We stopped to check that everyone was alright. The people were fine, but the hippo was lying on the ground on its back, legs pointing straight up. People were trying to turn the hippo around so that it could walk away, but it was so heavy that they were having a hard time. They finally made it and the hippo was only slightly injured. I don’t know what happened to the hippo later but it made my hitchhiking experience so much more interesting. 24. How did the author get to the national park? A. By walking. B. By hitchhiking. C. By bus. D. By air. 25. Why are hippos considered the most dangerous animals? A. They are the largest animals. B. They always ruin crops. C. They often attack cars. D. They often eat people. 26. How did the accident happen? A. The hippo hit the car on purpose. B. The car hit the hippo accidentally. C. The truck hurt the hippo’s baby. D. The truck woke up the hippo accidentally. 27. What does the writer think of this hitchhiking in Africa? A. He feels it is moving. B. He feels it is boring. C. He thinks it is a terrible experience. D. He thinks it a fun experience. C Billionaire Sir Christopher Hohn expects the greatest “demand disruption (中断)” for oil since the 1970s shock to cause an increase in renewable energy investment. He said high oil prices are “a positive thing” for the climate as the energy crisis results in a “dramatic speed-up” in decarbonisation (碳减排). “The whole world should now be focused on seeking alternatives, whether they’re renewables or hydrogen fuels. All of these things are far more economic.” He pointed to the recent boost of EU (欧盟) for renewable energy funding, as part of a plan to r
