devices是復(fù)數(shù)形式,描述的也是目前的事情,所以應(yīng)使用be的現(xiàn)在時(shí)復(fù)數(shù)形式are。B和C與意思不符,should也是表示推斷。不能選擇A,因?yàn)椴环嫌⒄Z表達(dá)習(xí)慣。 從語法結(jié)構(gòu)來看,這里應(yīng)選擇引導(dǎo)狀語從句的連詞,其他選項(xiàng)都會(huì)造成結(jié)構(gòu)錯(cuò)誤。關(guān)系代詞的先行詞immobilizers是物不是人,所以只能用that,不能用who。 這個(gè)句子結(jié)構(gòu)是:to take to do sth.。 them后跟著to,所以首先排除A和C(let sth.)。 從obstacle in the criminal’s way這個(gè)名詞短語看出,應(yīng)選擇D,構(gòu)成put obstacle in sb.’s way(給某人設(shè)置障礙)這種固定用法。但是他馬上就會(huì)又驚又惱。并且應(yīng)該在兩個(gè)月之內(nèi)用在英國的普通汽車上。甚至還有一些人主張計(jì)劃將制動(dòng)裝置裝在運(yùn)行著的車輛上,可是這樣一來人們就會(huì)擔(dān)心這個(gè)系統(tǒng)的安全性?,F(xiàn)代車卻遠(yuǎn)沒有這么簡單,因?yàn)樗鼈兊囊婀芾碛?jì)算機(jī)裝置只有接收到一個(gè)獨(dú)一無二的由點(diǎn)火鑰匙發(fā)送過來的身份密碼才可以啟動(dòng)汽車。在2000年,英國12%的車輛被盜案是由于主人的鑰匙被盜,這個(gè)數(shù)字比前一年增長了1倍。Basing on this information是現(xiàn)在分詞短語,用作狀語。yet意為“迄今還”,常用于否定句中。 side前面要求用介詞on。練習(xí): theseB them C thisD that withinB aboveC toD on policeB trafficC trucksD buses mechanicalB movableC automaticD electronic

第一句提到的是eyes,ears,brain等,指示代詞應(yīng)該用復(fù)數(shù)形式的these,不能選this或that。:that替代上一句的“l(fā)et him have the wheel at any time and in any place”。包括撒策姆、公安部門、保險(xiǎn)公司以及安全技術(shù)公司在內(nèi)的一個(gè)群體已經(jīng)為體系開發(fā)出了一些標(biāo)準(zhǔn),它們將比顧客所預(yù)期的更早地被推廣到市場上。但是不死心的盜賊們卻還在一直想方設(shè)法偷車?,敹√m多來自位于貝克郡的一個(gè)由汽車保險(xiǎn)工業(yè)投資成立的名為撒策姆的安全研究機(jī)構(gòu),他說,“車輛盜竊的手法已經(jīng)有所改變。把一個(gè)集合有微型無繩電話,微量處理器,存儲(chǔ)器以及全球定位系統(tǒng)的衛(wèi)星接收器的控制盒子安裝在汽車上。目前,這種裝置只用于卡車隊(duì)或者用于建筑工地的特殊車輛上。當(dāng)然,specialist,doctor或lawyer也可以預(yù)期,但總不及customer那么自然。...will not allow them to start...:……不允許它們啟動(dòng)。所以,D是答案。這里作者要表達(dá)的意思是:使……日子難過,所以應(yīng)選擇A。 prevent sth.(from)doing是固定用法,restart這里要用被動(dòng)語態(tài)being restarted,所以應(yīng)選擇B。 這里應(yīng)該使用不定冠詞,而且miniature cellphone后面的并列定語都使用不定冠詞。for two months:已經(jīng)有兩個(gè)月了。然后作者推斷,在兩個(gè)月后這種技術(shù)就能用于英國的汽車。如選擇B,switches the engine on(發(fā)動(dòng)引擎)句子意思便不符合文章內(nèi)容。a task任務(wù),要處理的事務(wù)。bare: just sufficient。煩人的 of trucks:卡車隊(duì)。15.A 本題只能選as fast as。有next,前面很可能有first之類表次序的詞。10.B 從意義上判斷,a steady supply是正確的選擇。e close意為“接近”。6.C 本句將Golden Orb Weaver蜘蛛網(wǎng)的牢度和張度與防彈衣材料Kevlar對(duì)比,說明該蜘蛛網(wǎng)堅(jiān)韌的程度。3.D 本句說蜘蛛織網(wǎng)的機(jī)制和過程,所以選weave。2.run:(編織物)抽絲 練習(xí):1.A tough B soft C large D smooth 2.A cloth B silk C nylon D wool 3.A repair
