Yet the safety and strength of a flying bike was always a big problem. Over the past 10 years, developments in technology have moved the dream of personal flying vehicles closer to reality. Now, two groups of inventors say such vehicles may be available soon. The British pany Malloy Aeronautics has developed a prototype (原型) of its flying bicycle. Grant Stapleton, marketing sales director of Malloy Aeronautics, says the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly. It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed, he adds. Mr. Stapleton says safety was the pany39。s main concern. He says the designers solved the safety issue by using overlapping rotors to power the vehicle. The pany is testing a fullsize prototype of the Hoverbike, which will most likely be used first by the police and emergency rescue teams. In New Zealand, Martin Aircraft Company is also testing a fullsize prototype of its personal flying device, called the Jetpack. It can fly for more than 30 minutes, up to 1, 000meters high and reach a speed of 74 kilometers per hour. Peter Coker is the CEO of Martin Aircraft Company. He said the Jetpack is built around safety from the start. In his words, “Reliability is the most important element of it. We have safety built into the actual structure itself, very similar to a Formula One racing car. The Jetpack uses a gasolinepowered engine that produces two powerful jet streams. Mr. Coker says it also has a parachute that would be used, if there should be an emergency. It starts to work at very low altitude and actually saves both the aircraft and the pilot, he adds. Mr. Coker says the Jetpack will be ready for sale soon.（1）We can learn from the passage that the Hoverbike . A.can hardly get in and out of small spaces quicklyB.can fly for over 30 minutes, up to l, 000 meters highC.has been used by the police and emergency rescue teamsD.can be transported quickly after being folded and packed（2）Peter Coker uses the example of Formula One racing car to show that . A.the Jetpack is very safe and reliableB.the engine of the Jetpack is powerfulC.the actual structure of the Jetpack is uniqueD.the Jetpack can reach a great speed and height（3）The underlined word It in the last paragraph refers to . A.the jet streamB.the engineC.the Jetpack.D.the parachute（4）What is the author39。s main purpose of writing the passage? A.To describe the problems of inventing flying vehicles.B.To introduce the latest development of flying vehicles.C.To show the differences between two flying vehicles.D.To advertise the two personal flying vehicles.【答案】（1）D（2）A（3）D（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，很多人夢(mèng)想可以像騎自行車(chē)一樣飛。然而會(huì)飛的自行車(chē)安全性是一個(gè)問(wèn)題。文章介紹了英國(guó)公司開(kāi)發(fā)的一種會(huì)飛的自行車(chē)，以及其特點(diǎn)，比如有一些會(huì)飛的自行車(chē)帶有降落傘的裝置。（1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly.
