【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 l aware the industry is changing quickly due to the rise of selfdriving vehicles and electric batteries, and says in the next 20 years driving as we know it may exist mainly as a hobby. I really believe that humanity goes for things that make sense. he told Newsweek. If you look at million people dying every year on the roads, if you look at the impact it has on economies based on traffic jams and time lost, it39。s so much of a negative impact to society that I think such a huge benefit can be gained if people stop driving. Let39。s look into the future. You are standing in front of the choice of either investing a huge amount of your money in buying a hunk of metal and plastic for 30, 40, 50 thousand dollars, or you have the convenient option of paying as you go, the car picks you up in a few minutes, it39。s a nice environment and you spend a few dollars per day on your transport. When you take the driver out of the car, transport can be much cheaper and you can use the time to do other things, instead of sitting behind a steering(轉(zhuǎn)向)wheel and not doing anything else. So I think the choice for the vast majority of people will be the obvious one.（1）What can we learn from paragraph 2? majority of people will purchase cars. changes will take place in car industry. cars will enjoy more popularity. car business is gradually disappearing.（2）What is a major cause of the fast change in the car industry? rapid growth of selfdriving cars. rise of shared vehicles. increasing demand of customers. advanced production line.（3）How does Rima feel about the future of selfdriving cars? ....（4）What can be a suitable title for the text? cars meet new challenges. cars avoid human errors. or driving cars won39。t be a must. cars will be pletely replaced.【答案】 （1）B（2）A（3）C（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇議論文，講述了由于自動駕駛車輛和電池的興起，在不遠的將來人們不用再買車和駕車，此外自動駕駛車輛將給社會和環(huán)境帶來巨大好。 （1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“Long term, I think 20 years down the road, it will be totally changed and people will not own or drive their cars anymore.”可知，20年后交通會有巨大的變化，人們將不會擁有或者駕駛車輛，由此可推測將來汽車產(chǎn)業(yè)將會發(fā)生巨大變大。故選B。 （2）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“Rimac is well aware the industry is changing quickly due to the rise of selfdriving vehicles and electric batteries,“可知汽車產(chǎn)業(yè)的巨大變化是由自動駕駛車輛和電池的興起導(dǎo)致。故選A。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第五段中的”So I think the choice for the vast majority of people will be the obvious one.”可知Rimac認為很多人都會選擇自動駕駛車輛，故推測Rimac對自動駕駛車輛的未來非常樂觀。選C。 （4）考查主旨大意。根據(jù)第一段中的“The founder of electric supercar maker Rimac has said it won39。t make sense for people to own or drive their own cars in the ing decades.“和下文所講述的內(nèi)容可知，本文主要圍繞將來人們不用再擁有和駕駛車輛展開。故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇科技類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。5．閱讀理解 It was just before 8 . on October 17, 39。d checked the higher summits forecast posted by the Mount Washington Observatory before she left. Based on her experience, Bales knew that her hike was realistic. Besides, she had two plans and extra layers of clothing to better regulate her temperature as conditions changed. At 10:30 ., the weather was showing its teeth. Bales added even more layers, including a jacket to protect herself from the cold winds and heavy fog. She made her way across the snow—covered ridge toward Mount Washington and began to think about calling it a day. Then she noticed something: a single set of footprints in the snow ahead of her. She39。d been following faint tracks all day and hadn39。t given them much thought, because so many people climbed Jewell Trail. But these, she realized, had been made by a pair of sneakers. She silently scolded the absent hiker for breaking normal safety rules and walked on. Now she felt genuinely alarmed. She was sure the hiker could not navigate(找到方向)in the low visibility and was heading straight toward the challenging trails of the Great Gulf Wilderness. Bales stood there, shocked. The temperature and clouds were in a race to find their lowest point, and darkness was mere hours away. If Bales continued to follow the tracks, she39。d add risk and time to the route she39。d already adjusted to manage both. But she could not let this go. She turned to the left and called out, Hello! into the frozen fog. Bales wouldn39。t get an answer until a week later, when the president of her rescue group received a letter in the mail. It read: I hope this reaches the right group of rescuers. I want to remain anonymous(匿名的), but I was called John. On Sunday, October 17, I went up my favorite trail, Jewell, to end my life. Weather was to be bad. Thought no one else would be there. I was dressed to go quickly. Next thing I knew this lady was talking to me, changing my clothes, giving me food, making me warmer.（1）What does the underlined sentence mean? weather began to get worse. controlled the weather. could never be predicted. was generally changeable.（2）Why did Bales feel really frightened? she lost her way pletely. the terrible weather was on the way. she was blinded by the frozen fog. she was convinced that someone was in trouble.（3）What is the purpose of John39。s hiking? challenge his limit. go up his favorite trail. donate some money to rescue group. kill himself without being discovered.【答案】 （1）A（2）D（3）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇記敘文，貝爾斯在天氣惡劣時去登山，無意發(fā)現(xiàn)一串往危險區(qū)域行進的腳印，她知道有人陷入了困境。盡管很害怕，盡管天氣情況很糟糕，她還是跟著腳印繼續(xù)前進，最終救了那個人。一周后才知道那人名叫約翰，當時準備自殺。 （1）考查句義猜測。根據(jù)第二段中的“Bales added even more layers, including a jacket to protect herself from the cold winds and heavy ，由此推斷劃線部分的意思是“天氣正在變得更糟”。故選A。 （2）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“Now she felt genuinely alarmed. She was sure the hiker could not navigate(找到方向)in the low visibility and was heading straight toward the challenging trails of the Great Gulf Wilderness.“可知貝爾斯看到腳印后非常害怕，因為她知道有人無法導(dǎo)航，這個人正在向海灣區(qū)域前進，那是最具挑戰(zhàn)性的線路，即貝爾斯確信有人遇上麻煩了，所以她感到害怕。故選D。 （3）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的”O(jiān)n Sunday, October 17, I went up my favorite trail, Jewell, to end my life. Weather was to be bad. Thought no one else would be there. I was dressed to go quickly.”可知，約翰這天選擇這條線路去登山的目的是在沒人看見的情況下結(jié)束自己的生命，所以他穿的很少，以便快速行走。故選D。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和句義猜測兩個題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，考生需要準確捕捉細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行推理，歸納，從而選出正確答案。6．閱讀理解 Jane Austen is loved mainly as a charming guide to fashionable life in the Regency period (英國攝政時期).
