"Extra? ExtraGasoline hits four dollars a gallon!”

??? No one will really be shockedexcept, perhaps, the old-timers who tell about the good old days when gas was three gallons for a dollar, and people drove around "just for the fun of it".

As a matter of fact; the price of gas has been rising fast and steadily for several years, and many adjustments have already been made.

??? There was, for a time, considerable unemployment in the auto industry, and three quarters of the garages and service stations have gone out of business. However; the bicycle and motor-scooter business has flourished(兴旺); and many people have found employment there: Now that Federal Motors has brought out its new Lilliput, which travels forty miles on a gallon, the auto business is picking up again. The factories that haven't switched over to two-wheel transportation are working on their new smaller models. There is talk, too, about bringing out new steam and electric automobiles that will be just as economical as the old cars.

??? In the meantime, streetcars are gradually replacing buses all over the country because of the greater economy of electric power. And many people who have seldom used public transportation are now riding the streetcars while their automobiles rust(生锈)in their garages. There's no market at all for their big, luxurious cars, for only the wealthy can now afford to operate them. Many people are now shopping in their own neighborhood, and small businesses are thriving.

??? Ministers, educators, and editorial writers are pointing out that there has been a great improvement in family life. Families now stay at home more for their fun, and children and parents are becoming better acquainted. The stores report a booming business in parlor games, hobby materials, books, musical instruments and albums.

??? People have lost their pale indoor look. The revival of the lost art of walking has brought a healthy pink back to many a cheek. This return to the heels has revolutionized the clothing styles; people now need to be ready for all kinds of weather:

??? These conditions, however, may not last. Already our clever chemists are at work on new synthetic fuels which, they say, will put us right back where we wereon wheels. Shall w e wish them success or not?

1.Which of the following is NOT a result of the gas price rising?

A. More people prefer to travel on public transportation which costs less than driving cars.

B. People return to the traditional exercise of walking, which helps them to look healthier.

C. People shop in nearby stores without having to drive, so small businesses are declining.

D. The auto industry has been forced to develop new models which are more economical.

2.The purpose of writing this passage is_.

A. to show the chain reaction of the rising gas price

B. to discuss whether it's necessary to work on new fuels

C. to warn people not to use too much gasoline

D. to picture what life will be like if gas runs out

3.What is the best title for this passage?

A. New fuels on the way

B. Cars or bicycles, that is a question

C. End of the good old days

D. From wheels to heels

阅读下面短文,从每题所给四个选项中选出最佳答案。

A Battery's Worst Nightmare(噩梦)

  Portable electronics that can be carried about easily are only as good as their batteries and, let's face it, batteries aren't very good, especially when compared with, say, petrol, which packs 100 times a battery's energy into an equal space. That's why a large group of mechanical engineers(centered at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, but with partners at other universities and companies) are hard at work in an effort to replace batteries with a tiny engine that runs on fuel. Imagine a battery-free life! W hen the fuel runs out in your laptop or mobilephone, you just fill up and go.

  The engine, about the size of a ten-cent coin, starts with a combustion chamber(燃烧室)that burns hydrogen(氢). Its tiny parts are etched onto silicon wafers(硅片) in the same manner that computer parts are imprinted onto integrated circuits(集成电路). The first engine is made up of five wafers. And since these wafers could be produced in much the same way as computer chips, they could probably be produced quite cheaply.

  But the devil in all this nice detail is efficiency(效率). Tiny engine parts don't always behave like their scaled-up parts of the first engine. Something between the parts can slow down the works, according to Columbia University professor Luc Frechette, one of the engine's designers. Extreme heat from the combustion chamber is also a problem, often leaking to other parts of the engine.

  The scientists' goal is to create an engine that will operate at 10 percent efficiency-that is, 10 times better than batteries operate. Frechette says that a complete system, with all parts of place and working, will be set up in the next couple of years, but commercial models aren't like until at least the end of the next ten years.

1.According to the passage, the title suggests that ________.

[  ]

A.batteries should be greatly improved

B.petrol will be used instead of batteries

C.the time of batteries will be gone forever

D.pollution caused by batteries must be solved

2.What's the meaning of the underlined word “devil” in paragraph 3?

[  ]

A.problem
B.advantage
C.invention
D.technique

3.What can we infer from the passage?

[  ]

A.The new invention doesn't need any fuel.

B.The new engine has been produced in quantity.

C.The new invention is much cheaper than the battery.

D.The new engine needs to be improved before it's on sale.

4.What is the main purpose of this passage?

[  ]

A.To introduce a new invention to readers.

B.To persuade readers not to use batteries.

C.To show us how the new invention works.

D.To declare when the engine will be on sale. 查看习题详情和答案>>
