However, theflying car has always remained the 27 symbol of personal transport freedom.Several companies around the world have produced 28 that can drive on roads and fly.Airbus has a futuristic modular (组件

25、式的) concept involving a passenger capsule that can be29from the road-going chassis (底盘) and picked up by a helicopter-type machine.But all these concepts are massively expensive, require safety certification standards for roadand air, need 30 controls, involve complex folding wings and propellers, a

So they are likely to remain rich peoples playthings rather than practical transportsolutions for the masses.“A car that takes off from some London street and lands in another 31 street is unlikely tohappen,” says Prof. Gray, a leading aeronautical engineer. “Sky

27、taxis are much more likely.” Butthat wont stop inventors from dreaming up new ways to fly and trying to persuade investors toback their sometimes 32 schemes.Civilian aviation is being disrupted, not by the age-old desires for speed, romanticism and33, but by the pressing need to respond to a changin

31、 Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on AnswerSheet 2.Companies Are Working with Consumers to Reduce WasteA As consumers, we are very wasteful. Annually, the world generates 1.3 billion tons ofsolid waste. This is expected to go up to 2.2 billion by 2025. The developed countries

32、 areresponsible for 44% of waste, and in the U.S. alone, the average person throws away their bodyweight in rubbish every month.B Conventional wisdom would seem to suggest that companies have no incentive tolengthen the life cycle of their products and reduce the revenue they would get from selling

33、newgoods. Yet, more and more businesses are thinking about how to reduce consumer waste. This ispartly driven by the rising price of raw materials and metals. It is also partly due to bothconsumers and companies becoming more aware of the need to protect our environment.C When choosing what products

34、 to buy and which brands to buy from, more and moreconsumers are looking into sustainability. This is opposed to just price and performance they wereconcerned about in the past. In a survey of 54 of the worlds leading brands, almost all of themreported that consumers are showing increasing care abou

35、t sustainable lifestyles. At the same time,surveys on consumers in the U.S. and the U.K. show that they also care about minimizing energyuse and reducing waste.D For the most part, consumers control what happens to a product. But some companies arerealizing that placing the burden of recycling entir

36、ely on the consumer is not an effective strategy,especially when tossing something away seems like the easiest and most convenient option.E Some retailers and manufacturers in the clothing, footwear, and electronics industrieshave launched environmental programs. They want to make their customers in

37、terested inpreserving their products and preventing things that still have value from going to the garbagedump. By offering services to help expand the longevity of their products, theyre promisingquality and durability to consumers, and receiving the reputational gains for beingenvironmentally frie

38、ndly.F For example, the Swedish jeans company Nudie Jeans offers free repair at twenty of theirshops. Instead of discarding their old worn-out jeans, customers bring them in to be renewed. Thecompany even provides mail-order repair kits and online videos, so that customers can learn howto fix a pair

39、 of jeans at home. Their philosophy is that extending the life of a pair of jeans is notonly great for the environment, but allows the consumer to get more value out of their product.When customers do want to toss their pair, they can give them back to the store, which willrepurpose and resell them.

40、 Another clothing company, Patagonia, a high-end outdoor clothingstore, follows the same principle. It has partnered with DIY website iFixit to teach consumers howto repair their clothing, such as waterproof outerwear, at home. The company also offers a repairprogram for their customers for a modest

41、 fee. Currently, Patagonia repairs about 40,000 garmentsa year in their Reno, Nevada, service center. According to the companys CEO, Rose Marcario,this is about building a company that cares about the environment. At the same time, offering-5 - repair supports the perceived quality of its products.G

42、 In Brazil, the multinational corporation Adidas has been running a shoe-recyclingprogram called “Sustainable Footprint” since 2012. Customers can bring shoes of any brand intoan Adidas store to be shredded and turned into alternative fuels for energy creation instead ofbeing burned as trash. They a

43、re used to fuel cement ovens. To motivate visitors to bring in moreold shoes, Adidas Brazil promotes the program in stores by showing videos to educate customers,and it even offers a discount each time a customer brings in an old pair of shoes. This boosts thereputation and image of Adidas by making

44、 people more aware of the companys values.H Enormous opportunities also lie with e-waste. It is estimated that in 2014 the worldproduced some 42 million metric tons of e-waste (discarded electrical and electronic equipmentand its parts) with North America and Europe accounting for 8 and 12 million m

45、etric tonsrespectively. The materials from e-waste include iron, copper, gold, silver, and aluminummaterials that could be reused, resold, salvaged, or recycled. Together, the value of these metals isestimated to be about $52 billion. Electronics giants like Best Buy and Samsung have providede-waste

46、 take-back programs over the past few years, which aim to refurbish (翻新) old electroniccomponents and parts into new products.I For other companies interested in reducing waste, helping the environment, and providingthe sustainable lifestyles that consumers seek, here are some first steps for buildi

47、ng a relationshipwith customers that focuses on recycling and restoring value to products:J Find partners. If you are a manufacturer who relies on outside distributors, then retailersare the ideal partner for collecting old products. Power tool maker DeWalt partners withcompanies, such as Lowes and Napa Auto Parts, to collect old tools at their stores for recycling.The partnership benefits both sides by allowing unconventional partners (for example, twocompanies from two different industries) to work together on a specific aspect of the value ch
