Question

Some experts feel that the automobile is to “die”. They see a day in the not­too­distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to become rotten iron and steel rubbish. __小題1:__ They think that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the near future.
_小題2:_ It should become smaller, safer, and more money­saving, and should not be powered by the petrol engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution­free than present types.
Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic jam. _小題3:_
When the auto enters the freeway system, a retractable arm, which can be moved inwards or backwards, will drop from the auto and touch a rail that is similar to the subway trains electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. 小題4:_
The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the freeway. _小題5:_ It is guessed that an automated freeway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present­day freeway.

A．Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay.

B．The computer will then monitor all of the car's movements.

C．One proposed solution to this problem is the automated freeway system.

D．Experts have different views on what role autos will play in the near future.

E．The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years.
F．Drivers in the freeway system can sit back and do nothing but control the direction.
G．The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the sound speaker that will warn him of his coming exit.
1．______　2.______　3.______　4.______　5.______

Answer 1

小題1:A
小題2:E
小題3:C
小題4:B
小題5:G

本文屬于科普知識(shí)類，為大家預(yù)測(cè)了將來(lái)的汽車是什么樣子，以及怎樣操控它。
小題1:A　首先根據(jù)文章開(kāi)頭的“Some experts...”可知與A項(xiàng)的“Other authorities”構(gòu)成some...others的結(jié)構(gòu)；其次，根據(jù)后文說(shuō)到“...remain a leading means of urban travel”可知，本句和前面說(shuō)的“汽車消失”形成對(duì)比。故選A項(xiàng)。
小題2:E　根據(jù)空后的“It should become smaller，safer，and more money­saving，and should not be powered by the petrol engine.”可知選E項(xiàng)。
小題3:C　根據(jù)空前的“the main problem”及后文的“the freeway system”可知C項(xiàng)起到了承上啟下的作用。
小題4:B　根據(jù)空前的“control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer”可知選B項(xiàng)。
小題5:G　本段都是講述電腦控制汽車是如何運(yùn)行的，故選G項(xiàng)。
