26、, more than half of U, S, adults like gas-powered cars better. They say electric cars are expensive and charging (充电) them is a big problem. For now, most people plan to stick with gas-powered cars. We ask young readers what they think about electric cars. Henry, 12 years old, San Francisco I think

27、we should all have electric cars. This would cut down air pollution and allow us to breathe better. Cleaner air also means there will be fewer animals dying. Think of all the lives we have lost by destroying our environment. Some people think electric cars are pricey. But their prices are coming dow

28、n. Whats more, gas costs a lot more than electricity. Once you use the gas, its gone. Anyway, I think were going to run out of gas at some point. This will make electric cars a need.

Its a much better fit for me, and it has made me think about why teamwork can make our jobs harder rather than easier. Personalitie

34、s (个性) can make teamwork difficult. Theres often someone on the team that puts their needs first. The team often goes along with this person, whose ideas might not be the best, just the loudest. Just one difficult personality can make teamwork hard. Combine (结合) several challenging personality types

35、, and its even harder. Not having enough time together can also make teamwork challenging. For example, I was once on a team where we never had enough time to meet as a group.

When I have a great idea, I dont have anyone to share it with to see if it really is a great idea. Dont get me wrongI still like my team of one and enjoy making all of the important decisions m
