题目内容
9.The (61)Indian(India) government may use 3D paintings as virtual(虚拟的)speed-breakers (helping to reduce speed) on major highways and roads,in order to check speeding and make(62)its(it)dangerous roads a little safer."We are trying out 3D paintings(63)used(use) as virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary (64)requirements(require) of speed breakers,"India's transport minister Nitin Gadkari said.
The optical illusions(错觉)are supposed(65)to encourage(encourage) drivers to slow down automatically.(66)Earlier(early) this month,India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways,(67)which is considered to be a safety risk for high-speed transport.In India,cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai(68)have experimented(experiment) with 3D zebra crossings in the last one year.(69)However,critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions,they may ignore them.Others also point(70)outthat India's decision does not consider the safety of a large number of pedestrians.
分析 为了抑制超速提高危险路段的安全性,印度政府在主要道路和街道设置3D斑马线.印度交通部长 Nitin Gadkari 说:"我们尝试用3D图案作为虚拟斑马线,以降低对不必要的减速带的使用".这种视觉幻想方式有望让司机减速,本月早期,印度下令拆除减速带,此举被认为对高速公路交通造成了安全隐患.在印度城市Ahmedabad 和 Chennai去年就已经建成了3D斑马线,不过批评家认为,一旦司机知道了这只是眼睛上的错觉,他们会忽视这些装置;还有人指出,印度政府忽视了广大行人的安全.
解答 61.Indian;考查形容词,India 意为"印度",指国家,Indian意为"印度的",是形容词,所以这里用 Indian作定语修饰 government.
62.its;考查 物主代词,结合上下文分析,此处指的是"使印度的危险路段更安全些",所以用its指的"印度国家的".
63.used;考查分词作状语,分析句子结构可知,这里用在句中作状语,意为"被用来作为虚拟斑马线",3D paintings与动词use存在逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词作状语.
64.requirements;考查名词,分析句子结构可知,此处应用名词形式坐动词avoid的宾语,requiremens意为"需要",是可数名词,根据句意此处要用复数形式.
65.to encourage;考查动词不定式,be supposed to do是固定搭配,意为"应该,被期望做某事".
66.Earlier;考查比较级,分析句意为"这个月早些时候",所以用比较级形式与"现在"这个时间作比较.
67.which;考查关系代词,分析句子结构可知这是定语从句,关系代词指代上文讲到的 India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways这件事,故用关系代词which.
68.have experimented;考查动词的时态,分析句意为"在印度城市Ahmedabad 和 Chennai去年就已经建成了3D斑马线",强调截止目前已经建成,故用现在完成时.
69.However;考查连词,结合上下文分析,前面讲到一些城市使用了3D斑马线,下文又讲批评者提出了3D斑马线的不足,所以这里用however表示转折,句意为"然而,批评者认为…".
70.out;考查固定搭配,point out是固定短语,意为"指出".
