20、. When wewere given something, and forgot to say “thank you”, elders would seriously remind us, “arent youforgetting to say something”, which was immediately followed by a “thank you”.Maybe technology has affected our brains so much that we can never go back to those golden dayswe like.

29、r300 miles. This is twice the output of gas cars.In a hydrogen fuel battery, the one proton （ 质 子 ） and one electron in a hydrogen atom（ 原 子 ） arebroken up. While the electrons power the car, the hydrogen protons work with the oxygen atom to producewater. At the same time, it also produces a lot of
30、heat which turns this water into water vapor.

36、 studies suggested that providing people with too much information about nutrition(营 养 )and physical activity at once tends to be discouraging.
