g columns. Improvements are made constantly in the parts of a vehicle which are obvious to the driver. These parts include windshield wipers, headlamps, brakes, steering suspension, and the exhaust system. The introduction of front and rear directional signals contributes greatly to motor vehicle safety. Stop lights, backup lights, and fourway emergency flashers also aid in vehicle safety. Fourway emergency flashers have bee standard equipment for vehicles. to the passage, which is NOT mentioned? a. safety belts b. safer door latches c. brake pedal to the passage, which bee standard equipment for vehicles? a. fourway emergency flashers b. guard rail c. ventilating system of the following is true? a. Vehicular safety design usually centers on protecting the passengers and the vehicles b. Vehicular safety design usually centers on protecting the passengers and the persons who drives the vehicles c. Vehicular safety design usually centers on protecting the passengers and the pedestrians to the passage, which design is described? a. vehicular safety b. vehicular structure c. vehicular power Passage Five In the 1930s engineers found that superior embankments could be constructed by spreading the material in relatively thin layers and pacting it at moisture content close to optimum. The improvement resulted largely because greater density was obtained, which resulted in higher “strength” in the soil mass and in decreased settlement and rutting. Layered construction also produced greater uniformity in the material itself and in its density and moisture content. This was beneficial since any subsequent consolidation or swelling would be relatively uniform. the 1930s engineers found embankments could be constructed by___________. a. pacting it at density and spreading the material in relatively thick layers b. pacting it at a moisture content and spreading the material in relatively thin layers c. pacting it at borrow area to the passage, which cause higher “strength”? a. greater density was obtained b. moisture content close to minimum c. more material was used of the following is true? a. layered construction produced greater difference in the material and etc. b. layered construction produced greater disagreement in its density c. layered construction produced greater unanimity in its density and moisture content of the following words is the closest meaning of ?optimum?? a. worst b. best c. different Part IV Translate the Sentences into Chinese (15’) structural design of any structure first involves the establishment of the load and other design conditions that must be resisted by the structure and therefore must be considered in its ,這些因素由結(jié)構(gòu)來(lái)抵抗,因此在設(shè)計(jì)中必需考慮 preliminary reconnaissance will have established primary and secondary controls for one or more feasible routes and will have fixed each location within a band of limited width, possibly within a few hundred 點(diǎn)和次要控制點(diǎn),并且在有限寬度地帶內(nèi),可能在幾百英尺范圍內(nèi),確定每條路線的位置。 plans and specifications stipulate many requirements that are to be met by materials or construction 。 car occupancy in most cities is less than persons per 小車平均載人少于一點(diǎn)五人。 many structure sites the field investigations indicate that channel relocations and improvements above and below the structure may provide a better situation from the hydraulic ,現(xiàn)場(chǎng)調(diào)查指出改渠和改善結(jié)構(gòu)物的上下游,從水力學(xué)的觀點(diǎn)看,可能提供一種更好的情況、 Part V Translate the Sentences into English (15’) 。 Drainage structures may be divided into major and ninor structure 、路線踏勘測(cè)量、初步定線和最終定線。 The high location involves four phases 。office study of existing information, reconnaissence of survey of routes , preliminary location, and final location 。 The shipper and travelers choose transportation modes in terms of level of service provided 。 Steel and concrete have almost the same rate of contraction and expension 。 The selection of earth working equipments is primarily depended on the nature of the materials and the haul distances Professional English Test C Part I Vocabulary and Structure (20’) 1.
