A few years ago, I went hiking with my older sister, Mary, and her friend, Jonathan. Our 41 was to reach the tip of the mountain so we could see the beautiful view. The hike was 42 and the heat drained our energy. As we were 43 the summit, through the treetops we could see the valley below. The sight at that point was 44 impressive. Jason was satisfied with the view and suggested we turn back. Jessi and I insisted we keep going so we could make it to the top, but Jason decided not to continue. When we finally reached our destination, the whole view was 45 . The view from the summit gave us a 360 degree advantageous point of the entire area, which was much more incredible than the limited view Jason had where he stopped. It was well 46 the extra effort. What is the point of this story? Set your goals and never settle for less than what you can achieve!
As we 47 high school to go forward with our lives, we will each have our own mountains to climb. All of us will face different challenges and struggles. We all have the 48 to set new goals and to achieve them. As we continue in life, we must remember that if we succeed, we must not be proud. If we fail, we must not 49 . If we face adversity (逆境), we must trust that there is always a way through it. If we experience prosperity, we must never forget those who are not so fortunate.
As graduates, we have already proven we can achieve important goals. Let’s go forward, set new goals and never settle for less than what we can achieve.

The Department of Energy plans to invest hundreds of millions of dollars to help produce fuels from materials that are not part of the food supply. Growing corn, or maize, for fuel has raised concerns about the supply and cost of corn available for food and animal feed.
Fuel made from switchgrass or forestry waste like sawdust(锯屑) is known as cellulosic(有纤维质的) ethanol(酒精). Department officials say it contains more energy and produces fewer greenhouse gases than ethanol made from corn. Switchgrass is also easier to grow.
Last month, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences published a study of switchgrass grown on low-quality land. Government scientist Ken Vogel was the lead author. The study says the switchgrass produced five times more energy than was needed to grow it. Also, it says switchgrass, over its lifetime from crop to fuel, produces much less carbon compared to gasoline.
Fossil fuels like oil take carbon from the ground and release it as waste gas when the fuel is burned. Biofuels(生物燃料) like corn and cellulosic ethanol also produce greenhouse gases, through growing crops and making the fuel. The difference is that biofuels remove carbon from the atmosphere through the growth of the feedstock, the material for the fuel.
Science magazine just published two studies of biofuels and the heat-trapping gases that scientists link to climate change. One of the reports notes that most studies have found that substituting biofuels for gasoline will reduce greenhouse gases.
But it says the earlier studies failed to count the carbon released into the atmosphere as farmers worldwide react to higher prices. They are clearing forests and grasslands to make way for new cropland to replace the grain used for biofuels. Doing so can release much of the carbon stored in the plants and soil, and sacrifice future storage.
The study found that corn-based ethanol could increase greenhouse gases for years from land use change. And it found that biofuels from switchgrass, if grown on American corn land, could also increase emissions, though by less.
The study team, led by Timothy Searchinger at

A．an increasing number of people worry about the use of corn as fuel
B．there will be an increase in price of corn for food if it is used as fuel
C．there will be an decrease in quantity of corn for food if it is used as fuel

78．Biofuels produces much less carbon compared to Fossil fuels in that .
A．biofuels produce less greenhouse gases than fossil fuels
B．fossil fuels release carbon while biofuels not when burning
C．biofuels take in carbon from the air when they are growing
D．biofuels produce greenhouse gases only when they are burning
79．The passage indicates that .
A．we’d better make full use of biofuels to protect the environment
B．the value of using biofuels remains to be further studied
C．it’s costless to grow biofeuls
D．biofuels are just switchgrass and corn
