28、ssions(排放)vehicles”, but people in California seem to be clueless about where electricity comes from. Power plants mostly use fire to make it.

31、e electricity, you waste a nice part of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heatat the generator, through the transmission lines, etc.A gallon of gas may propel your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas wont get you nearly as far so electric cars burn more fuel tha

32、n gasoline-powered ones. If our electricity came mostly from nukes or geothermal, or hydro or wind or solar, then an electric car truly would be clean. But for political, technical, and economic reasons, we dont use much of those energy sources. In addition, electric cars batteries which are poisono

This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explai

40、ned by the fact that Asian-American students who began their education abroad arrived in the U.S. with a solid grounding in mathematics but little or no knowledge of English. They are also influenced by the promise of a good job after college. Asians feel there will be less unfair treatment in areas

41、 like mathematics and science because they will be judged more objectively.
