Question

【題目】If you want a little extra security against thieves stealing your bicycle, designer Dennis Siegel has designed a solution. The RFID Bikealarm is attached to the seat on a bicycle and gives off an alarm when it senses movement.

“The RFID Bikealarm is meant to be a useful add-on to mechanical bicycle locks because it greatly extends the range of protection with only a few components,” Siegel explains on his website. “It is low-cost, durable and easy to use.”

The Bikealarm was designed as part of Siegel’s Bachelor’s degree thesis at the University of the Arts Bremen in Germany. The device will scare off any would-be thieves the moment they begin to steal the bicycle to which it is attached. It is able to continuously sense the environment to distinguish between specific events, for instance a passing tram / car and a serious theft.

Siegel created a working model of an alarm that would sound when it sensed movement, but wasn’t initially sure how it would be best attached to a bicycle. “I decided to mount it to the rails of the seat because it allows for comfortable interaction and the position is less obvious as it looks like a small repair kit,” he says.

Siegel chose to use RFID technology rather than Bluetooth to keep the costs down. Siegel explains that the most difficult aspect of creating the alarm was to get the electronic circuit down to a small enough size.

The device runs off a kind of battery that can be charged by USB within 2 hours and lasts for a few days with normal use. As the Bikealarm is only at development stage, Siegel hasn’t signed any agreements to put it on the market.

【1】When it senses movement, the RFID Bikealarm will _____.

A. make a warning sound

B. fasten the bicycle tightly

C. shake the bicycle quickly

D. call the police automatically

【2】Which of the following shows the right position of the RFID Bikealarm on a bicycle?

A. B.

C. D.

【3】 What do we know about the RFID Bikealarm?

A. It can’t tell between specific events.

B. It is very difficult to use.

C. It uses a kind of battery for power.

D. It depends on Bluetooth technology.

【4】 It can be inferred from the last two paragraphs that ______.

A. the electronic circuit is a little larger

B. it’s very easy to make a Bikealarm

C. it costs too much at present

D. not many Bikealarms are produced

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】A

【2】B

【3】C

【4】D

【解析】

試題分析:文章介紹了一種新型的防止自行車被盜的一種報警裝置。

【1】A細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的--- gives off an alarm when it senses movement.以及第四段中的Siegel created a working model of an alarm that would sound when it sensed movement,可知它是依靠發(fā)出報警聲音來達到防盜的目的。故選A。

【2】B細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的The RFID Bikealarm is attached to the seat on a bicycle and gives off an alarm when it senses movement.以及第四段中的I decided to mount it to the rails of the seat可知它應該安裝在座子下面的橫梁上，故選B。

【3】C細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的The device runs off a kind of battery that can be charged by USB within 2 hours可知該裝置的能量是由電池來提供的。故選C。

【4】D推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段可知Siegel還沒有把這種新的報警裝置推到市場。故選D。

【學法指導】

細節(jié)題是針對文中某個細節(jié)、某句話或某部分具體內容設置問題，正確答案的根據(jù)一定可以在原文中找到，即原文的改寫往往成為正確選項。通常細節(jié)題的正確選項有以下特征：

1、對原文句子中的關鍵詞進行替換。把原文中的一些詞換成意義相近的詞，成為正確選項。

2、詞性或者語態(tài)的變化。把原文中的一些詞變換一下詞性，或者改變原文句子的語態(tài)，給考生制造障礙。

3、語言簡化。把原文中的復雜語言現(xiàn)象進行簡化，成為正確答案。

4、正話反說。把原文中的意思反過來表達而成為正確選項（適用于尋找錯誤選項的題目）。

29小題B細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的The RFID Bikealarm is attached to the seat on a bicycle and gives off an alarm when it senses movement.以及第四段中的I decided to mount it to the rails of the seat可知它應該安裝在座子下面的橫梁上，故選B。
