  • 第2题:

    Ten workers in China pushed their boss's car three miles home after an office party because they were all too drunk to drive. The group was enjoying a meal at a restaurant in downtown Changchun, Jilin Province (northeast China). When the party was over, Boss Zhang Fei found that he was too drunk to drive. Then suddenly they realized nobody had stayed sober enough to drive his car.

    Drink-driving was listed as a dangerous offence in China in 2014, esp. when the driver is drunk. Those who break the law will have their driving license revoked, face a heavy fine and may be put in jail. Zhang did not want to leave his car downtown and it was too late to call out another driver to drive the car for him. Someone then suggested they push the car home, and said that the exercise would do them all good. Thus, all ten quickly agreed and set off with Zhang at the wheel. All ten workers pushed their boss's car home through the city streets, laughing and singing during the 45-minute journey. Passers-by were shocked to see the group.

    Traffic officers said that as long as the car's engine was not running, it would not be classed as drink-driving under the law. However, it is still very dangerous for so many people to push the car along the road, as it may cause traffic accidents.

    1. ______ workers in China pushed their boss's car home in _______ minutes.

    A. 45, 10

    B. 3, 8

    C. 10, 45

    2. Drink-driving was listed as a dangerous offence in China in __________.

    A. 2013

    B. 2014

    C. 2015

    3. Those who break the law may _______.

    A. not have their driving license revoked

    B. not face a heavy fine

    C. be put in jail

    4. People pushing the car along the road would not be classed as drink-driving because _______.

    A. the car engine was not running

    B. those people didn't drink

    C. there were no police on the road

    5. We can infer from the passage that drink-driving _________ the law.

    A. is not against

    B. is against

    C. has nothing to do with

    Computers in Cars
    You're far from home on a lonely road.Shadowy forests stretch away on both sides.A thick mist(雾)makes it difficult to see far beyond your car's windshield(挡风玻璃).
    “Can this be route 90A?”you wonder. if it is,you should be near a town.Yet there's no hint of one .Night is closing in.And you're low on gasoline.
    This is a situation where an in-car computer that can navigate would be a big help.
    A car computer that navigates?Yes!Such computers exist.Several experimental models are being tested by General Motors,Ford,Chrysler,and several foreign car makers.These computers vary in detail .But they all contain series of maps on videodiscs or videotapes.For example,one computer system contains 13,300 maps covering the continental US.
    Before starting out on a trip,a driver can type in the code for the region he or she plans to drive through .The computer then shows a map of that region.At the same time,a tiny radio re-ceiver linked to the computer goes to work.It picks up signals from navigation satellites such as the NAVSTAR network.Using these signals,the computer shows the car's position at all times and displays this position on the map.The computer can also calculate and display the best route to follow.
    A navigation computer may also receive and use data about road construction,weather condi- tions,and traffic jams.This information would be displayed to the driver and the computer would also use the information to work out alternate(交替的)routes.
    Most cars nowadays also contain computers that help cars run more efficiently .Microproces- sors(微处理机)control certain engine functions by regulating the mixing of fuel. Data on car speed,oil pressure,revolutions per minute,engine temperature,and fuel level can be displayed as digital data(numbers)or warning lights.
    Some auto designers suggest that a central computer display be used to clearly present such timely information as car speed and fuel level.Warning lights would indicate a drop in oil pres- sure or a sudden rise in engine temperature .To get more information on these conditions,the driver could call it up on the computer display screen.When needed,the computer could be “asked”to provide navigation aid or information about the car's condition.

    Without signals from navigation satellites,the in-car computer______.
    A: would still be able to locate the car's position at all times
    B: would fail to locate the car's position
    C: could still work out the best route to follow
    D: would seek help from the radio receiver linked to it

    答案:B
    解析:
    文章第二段描述了一位司机迷路的情况,紧接着第三段讲到,当汽车上装载了计算机导航系统后,会给司机带来很大的方便。很明显,答案为选项C。
    本题属于词汇题,问“navigate”在第三段中的意思是什么?navigate的本意是“导航”,即选项C的意思,但在文中,它不是给轮船导航,而是为汽车导航,为驾驶员指路,故选项B为正确答案。
    本题是根据第四段中间这两句话出的问题:These computers vary in detail. But they all contain series of maps on videodiscs or videotapes.所有(车载)计算机导航系统都含有电子地图,即保存在视盘或录像带上的地图(series of maps on videodiscs or videotapes),所以A为正确答案。
    本题问题的是当车载计算机收不到来自导航卫星的信号时会出现什么情况。根据常识可以判断,计算机无法确定汽车的位置。此题可以通过第五段中的“Using these signals,the computer shows the car's position at all times and displays this position on the map.”推断出来:本题是此句意思的反说。
    选项中给出了计算机导航系统的几个功能,问其中哪项不是。通过阅读短文,我们发现选项B的信息文中没有提到,故此题选B。

    Passage Three

    People enjoy talking about "firsts." They like to remember their first love or their first car. But not all firsts

    are happy ones. Few people enjoy recalling the firsts that are bad.

    One of history's bad but important firsts was the first car accident. Autos were still young when it happened. The crash took place in New York City. The year was 1896. The month was May. A man from Massachusetts was visiting the city in his new car. At the time, bicycle riders were still trying to get used to the new set of wheels on the road. No one is sure who was at fault. In any case, the bike and the car collided. The man on the bike was injured. The driver of the car had to stay in jail and wait for the hospital report on the bicycle rider. Luckily, the rider was not killed.

    Three years later, another automobile first took place. The scene was again New York City, a real estate broker named Henry Bliss stepped off a streetcar. He was hit by a passing car. Once again, no one is sure just how it happened or whose fault it was. The driver of the car was put in jail. Poor Mr. Bliss became the first person to die in a car accident.

    44. In each accident the driver was ______.

    A. found guilty

    B. set free

    C. laughed at

    D. put in jail for a while
