To improve the environment, many countries are d_________(81) electric vehicles（EVs, 电动车）. Among them, China is taking a leading role and has created the world’s largest EV m_________(82), according to the Wall Street Journal.
Last year, over 40 percent of the 753,000 EVs sold worldwide were sold in China, more than twice as many as the number sold in the United States, according to the International Energy Agency.
Chinese drivers are already big fans of ECs. Chinese auto companies（汽车公司）i_________(83) BYD and BAIC（北汽集团）were among the top in the world in EV sales.
“Charging an electric car is cheaper than filling up a fossil fuel car with gas,”said a customer, who bought an electric car from BAIC this year.

Chinese boys are failing to become men according to a new book CALLED Save the Boys. The book says today’s Chinese boys are both physically and emotionally（情感地）weak. It claims, in effect, that boys are becoming more girly!
The writers of the book say modern culture and education system have an effect on this situation. They also say boys’ learning is constricted（受限制的）by having to sit still in class all day. They don’t have good role models in school because most of their teachers are women. On top of that, most men role models in pop-culture, the authors say, are effeminate（女子气的）.
Now, if you are a boy reading this, you shouldn’t get too nervous（you may already be laughing!）, because the book is just talking about social changes that have been happening all over the world, not just in China. When the world was becoming richer, the traditional roles of men and women changed a lot. Now we no longer live in old times when men had to defend their families from man-eating tigers. And women are no longer financially（经济地）dependent on men because they have their own jobs and careers.
Becoming a man is a difficult and long process. Your best role model is probably your father. From our fathers we learn that a man is honest and kind. He is responsible and hardworking. He always faces difficulties and doesn’t complain or make excuses. He may not have big muscles, but he does have a big heart. As long as there are good fathers, there is no need to worry about“saving”the boys. 88.
