【解析】
本文介绍了未来的一种小汽车。这种汽车和单车一样小,但是车内可以载两个人。就像自行车一样,人人会开,甚至老人和小孩可以开着他们去学校和公园。而且这种车有助于环保、占地少、便宜、省油等优点。
【1】通过前文can 可判断,此空应填动词原形,可猜出句子的意思为“这种汽车和单车一样小,但是车内可以载两个人”。carry 有运载的意思,放入句子中符合句意,故选 carry。
【2】根据 and 前面的 schools 可知 and 的后面应该跟着一个复数名词,在单词列表中只有 parks 符合题意。这句话翻译为“甚至老人和小孩可以开着他们去学校和公园”,符合题意故选 parks。
【3】根据后面的 in the air 并结合句意可知这里指的是空气中污染,所以应用 pollution。句意为“如果将来每个人都开这样的车,空气中的污染就会变少”。
【4】此空考查 there be 句型,表示“某地有某物”,句意为“在城市中也会有更多的空间给这些车”,并且will情态动词后面接动词原形,所以此空填 be。
【5】根据句意以及上下文可知,此处是将新型的汽车和普通的汽车进行对比,句意为“普通车子的所占的车位大小能够容下三辆新型的车子”,此空应该填“普通的”,即为usual。
【6】根据前文的cost可知此处应指花钱,句意为:“未来的小车花很少的钱就能拥有一辆来开”,所以这题应填 money。
【7】根据后面 around the city,可知此处指的是在城市当中四处走动,go around 有四处走动的意思,因为for 是介词,所以go 要变成 going。句意为:未来的小车可以所以在城市当中四处走动。
【8】根据句意:在它停下来需要加汽油之前它能够行驶 450 千米。before表示“在...之前”。
【9】small 是形容词,后面接名词,所以应选 ones,并且句意为“如果大车 和小车继续一起用的话,那么将需要两条道路”。
【10】根据前面的 big 和 faster,以及后面的 small,可知此空应对应的是 faster 的反义词,即 slower。句意为:大的快的车会需要一些道路,而小的慢的车会需要另一些道路。
【题目】
In UK, Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras are everywhere. They help the police solve crimes and keep the streets safe. But that’s not all they do. They also catch people doing very stupid or smart things.
One of the videos is of a British woman Mary Bale. She clearly doesn’t like cats. In 2010 she was caught on CCTV throwing one into a dustbin. The video shows Mary walking down a quiet street. All of a sudden, she notices Lola the cat jump onto a fence. Mary stops to pick up Lola and drops her into a large dustbin. Lola was saved fifteen hours later. And Mary was arrested for causing unnecessary suffering to an animal. She was fined (罚款) £250and was not allowed to own pets for five years.
Another video shows “Britain’s drunkest man”. He’s been at a party at London’s Savoy Hotel. And he’d obviously had a few too many glasses of beer. At about 2 a.m., he was kicked out for being too drunk. So, he decided to walk home. On the way, CCTV cameras filmed him falling down stairs and crossing the roads madly… A Savoy Hotel waiter said, “It’s amazing he didn’t hurt himself badly.”
Sometimes they also record smart events. Once a British band (乐队) The Get Out Clause didn’t have any money to make a music video. So, they came up with an unbelievable idea. They set up their instruments and played a song in front of eight CCTV cameras. And then, according to the English Freedom of Information Act (信息自由法) , they asked for a copy of all the footages (视频) , which they edited. The result is that a totally new music video was made, and it didn’t cost them a penny.
