19.In many parts of the world,cars play an important role in daily life and many societies would not exist without them.So the idea that in 20years'time,no one will own cars may be hard to believe.But this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously,not only by government but also by car manufacturers.
The Human Science and Advanced Technology Institute at Loughborough in the UK is part of an international research program.The team there believes that by 2020all cars will be computerized,which will mean much saving,no accidents and better use of roads.The super-intelligent car of the 21st century will drive itself,and it will not be owned by one individual.Instead,we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing.
According to Dr.David Davis,who leads the research team,these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture,which has blocked up our cities,polluted our air,and caused more deaths than both world wars put together.
Davis says,cars will be fitted with some intelligent devices to regulate the distance between one car and another.The car will automatically speed up,or slow down,to match the speed of the car in front.Computers are much safer drivers than people,so cars in a road train will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people.
By 2010,Dr.David Davis believes,car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road,whatever the weather conditions,by projecting an image of the road ahead on to the car's windscreen.And by 2020,cars will travel in convoy,linked to each other electronically.Cars will be connected by an electronic tow bar to the car in front to form"road-trains"."The front vehicle in such a train burns the normal amount."saysDavis."But all the others in the train would burn about ten percent of the normal amount,and so produce about ten percent of the pollution."

A.do not believe the prediction that no one will own cars by 2020
B.are devoted to the technological revolution in car industry

A.The car will speed up out of control.
B.We will own as many cars as we want.
C.All cars will be driven by computers.
D.Cars will produce more pollution than present ones.
63.The leader of the research team believes that the present car culture should change becauseD.
A.cars play a very important role in daily life
B.many societies would stop functioning without cars
C.cars should not be owned by one individual
D.it causes many deaths to human society

A.in line        B.sidealong     C.side by side      D.shoulder to shoulder
65.What will happen if cars are joined to each other electronically in 2020?C
A.Motorists will get a clear view of the road.
B.The weather condition will not have effect on motorists.
C.There will be less pollution caused by car.
D.All trains will burn less fuel than present.

分析 本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了政府推测的2020年的汽车,他们认为那时的车是全自动的,有电脑控制,更加方便快捷也更加的安全,并且污染更少.

解答 61.C.细节理解题.根据文章第一段"But this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously,not only by government but also by car manufacturers"但这是一支由运输人员认真进行预测,不仅由政府但也由汽车制造商;可知他们都是认真的考虑汽车的问题的;故选C.
62.C.细节理解题.根据文章第二段"The team there believes that by 2020all cars will be computerized,which will mean much saving,no accidents and better use of roads"团队认为,2020all汽车将计算机化,这将意味着节省,没有事故和更好地利用道路;可知2020年所有的汽车都将由电脑驱动;故选C.
63.D.细节理解题.根据文章第三段"these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture,which has blocked up our cities,polluted our air,and caused more deaths than both world wars put together",这些预测是基于汽车文化的成本上升,这阻碍了我们的城市,污染了我们的空气,并造成更多的死亡比世界大战放在一起;可知汽车文化急需改变是因为它会引起许多人死亡的人类社会;故选D.
64.A.词义推断题.根据文章最后一段"And by 2020,cars will travel in convoy,linked to each other electronically.Cars will be connected by an electronic tow bar to the car in front to form"road-trains"汽车行驶在车队,相互联系的电子,汽车将由一个电子牵引杆的前面的车形成"公路列车"连接,可知词义为排成队的;故选A.
65.C.细节理解题.根据文章最后一段"But all the others in the train would burn about ten percent of the normal amount,and so produce about ten percent of the pollution"在火车上所有的人都会消耗正常量的百分之十,因此生产约百分之十的污染;可知加入这样的车队会减少污染;故选C.

点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.

7.Busy as I am every day,I always open my computer and check my email.Most of the time I am simply doing finger exercises,another form of piano practice without beautiful tones.Sometimes,however,I receive a gift,reminding me of the gifts in my life.The following passage is one of those gifts.
Peter Jones is a 92-year-old,short,calm and proud man.Every morning he is fully dressed by eight o'clock,with his hair fashionably combed and face perfectly shaved even though he is unable to see anything.He would move to a nursing home today.His wife of 70 years old has recently passed away,making the move necessary.
After hours of waiting patiently in the entrance hall of the nursing home,he smiled sweetly when told his room was ready.As he moved his walking stick skillfully to the elevator,the nurse provided a visual description of his tiny room."I love it,"he stated with enthusiasm."Mr.Jones,you haven't been the room,"said the nurse.
"That doesn't have anything to do with it,"he replied."Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time.Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged…it's how I arrange my mind.I have already decided to love it. It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up.I have a choice:I can spend the day in bed complaining of the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work,or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do."
Each day is a gift,and as long as we are alive.We'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories we've stored just as Mr.Jones does.
