【题目】根据材料内容,选择正确答案。
B
One of my favourite things to do is hiking in mountains. Because nobody likes the idea of getting lost, I always prepare before every trip. But what's the best navigation tool, a Global Positioning System (GPS) or a good old map and compass? Five of my friends and I hiked through the mountains on a trail I marked. One team of three carried a GPS, and the other team used a map and compass.
It took the GPS team 3 hours and 11 minutes to get through the whole hike, however, it took the map and compass team only 2 hours and 49 minutes. The biggest problem the GPS team met was that they lost the satellite signal (卫星信号) in some places. With no map or compass, they had to walk around until they were in a place where the signal was good. The map and compass team was able to spot(认出) different landmarks, compare them to their maps and then use the compass to point them in the right direction.
When I head out on my future hikes, I'm bringing a map, a compass and a GPS to show me the way.
(1)The writer prepares before every trip because he doesn't .
A.like the old map or compass
B.know how to use the GPS
C.want to get lost in mountains
D.want to get into the mountains alone
(2)The two teams .
A.had the same navigation tool
B.went along the same trail
C.had the same problem
D.finished the whole hike at the same time
(3)In the end, the writer found out .
A.the map and the compass were too old navigation tools to use any more
B.it wasn't necessary to bring a map and a compass together with a GPS
C.the GPS had some disadvantages in hiking in mountains
D.he wouldn't use a GPS any more
【答案】
(1)C
(2)B
(3)C
【解析】1.文章第一行Because nobody likes the idea of getting lost, I always prepare before every trip. “因为没有人喜欢迷路的想法,我总会在每次旅行前做好准备”,故选C。2.文章第三行One team of three carried a GPS, and the other team used a map and compass.“一个团队用全球定位系统(GPS),另一个小组使用地图和指南针。”可看出他们没有使用相同的导航工具。故排除A。文章倒数二,三,四行 The biggest problem the GPS team met was that they lost the satellite signal (卫星信号) in some places. With no map or compass, they had to walk around until they were in a place where the signal was good. The map and compass team was able to spot(认出) different landmarks, compare them to their maps and then use the compass to point them in the right direction.“GPS团队遇到的最大问题是,他们失去了卫星信号(卫星信号)在一些地方。没有地图和指南针,他们不得不四处走动,直到他们在的地方信号很好。地图和指南针的团队能够发现(认出)不同的地标,比较他们的地图,然后使用指南针指向正确的方向。”可看出GPS团队和地图和指南针的团队他们不是都有相同的问题,故排除C。文章第四行It took the GPS team 3 hours and 11 minutes to get through the whole hike, however, it took the map and compass team only 2 hours and 49 minutes.“GPS团队花了3小时11分钟通过整个徒步旅行,然而,地图和指南针的团队只用了2小时49分钟。”可看出他们所用的时间不一样,故排除D。所以答案是B。3.A选项the map and the compass were too old navigation tools to use any more。“地图和指南针是太旧的导航工具,而不能再使用了”。B选项it wasn't necessary to bring a map and a compass together with a GPS.“ 没有必要带地图和指南针和GPS一起”。C选项the GPS had some disadvantages in hiking in mountains“GPS在山区徒步旅行有一些缺点”。D选项he wouldn't use a GPS any more.“他不会再使用GPS了”。文章最后提到When I head out on my future hikes, I'm bringing a map, a compass and a GPS to show me the way.“当我出发去我未来的远足,我带了一个地图指南针和一个GPS来给我指路。”故排除A,B,D。文章倒数二,三,四行 The biggest problem the GPS team met was that they lost the satellite signal (卫星信号) in some places. With no map or compass, they had to walk around until they were in a place where the signal was good. The map and compass team was able to spot(认出) different landmarks, compare them to their maps and then use the compass to point them in the right direction.“GPS团队遇到的最大问题是,他们失去了卫星信号(卫星信号)在一些地方。没有地图和指南针,他们不得不四处走动,直到他们在的地方信号很好。地图和指南针的团队能够发现(认出)不同的地标,比较他们的地图,然后使用指南针指向正确的方向。”可看出GPS在山区徒步旅行有一些缺点,故正确答案为C。
