Maybe not,and thats why automotive firms have included driver-assist functions in their driverless cars.This allows the human driver to take over if there is a problem.Google is one producer that has prototype driverless cars.These cars have been newly equipped with auto-steering wheels and conventional controls to allow normal driving.But this is just a stagethe vision is to have fully automated cars very soon.The director of Googles self-drive project,Chris Urmson,hopes his 11-year-old son will never have to take a driving test.To achieve that,the cars need to be on the roads in five years.He says driverless cars will greatly reduce accidents and traffic jams.According to Chris,about 1.2 million people are killed on the roads around the world each year.That number is equivalent to a jet falling out of the sky every day.He thinks gradual changes to existing car designs are not enough to deal with the problems.“If we are really going to make changes to our cities,get rid of parking lots,we need self-drive cars,”he says.Googles prototypes have covered over a million kilometers on the road.They have also had to deal with unexpected situations,such as a child driving a toy car in the road,and a woman in an electric wheelchair chasing a duck.In each case,the car reacted safely.Some are not convinced.Sven Beiker of Stanford University thinks driverless cars will still need human input in extreme circumstances.1.According to Paragraph 1,what is the authors chief concern about driverless cars?A.Functions.B.Safety.C.Price.D.Appearance.2.Chris Urmson mentioned his 11-year-old son in order to show that .A.traditional cars are harmful for kidsB.his son is not good at drivingC.his son is a slow learner in drivingD.driverless cars will come soon3.What is Chris Urmsons comment on self-drive cars?A.They can solve many existing problems.B.They are safer than a jet plane.C.They can completely change our cities.D.They should change gradually.4.What can we learn from the text?A.Googles prototypes will be tested on the roads soon.B.Self-drive cars are not designed for children or women.C.Concerns remain about the reliability of self-drive cars.D.Driving tests will be easier to pass in the near future.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。无人驾驶汽车尽管能够减少交通事故和交通堵塞,但是,它的安全性还有待验证。答案及剖析:1.B细节理解题。根据第一段第三、四句“But would you feel.in their driverless cars.”可知,作者主要关心的是无人驾驶汽车的安全问题。2.D推理判断题。根据第二段倒数第二、三句可知,Chris Urmson希望他11岁的儿子将来不用参加驾照考试。为了实现这个愿望,无人驾驶汽车须在5年之内上市,即在他的儿子16岁之前。由此可知,Chris Urmson提到他儿子是为了说明无人驾驶汽车很快就能被生产出来。3.A细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“He says driverless cars will greatly.jams.”和第三段最后一句“If we are really. he says.”可知,无人驾驶汽车可以减少交通事故、交通堵塞和停车场拥挤等许多现存的问题。4.C推理判断题。根据最后一段“Some are not convinced.in extreme circumstances.”可知,Sven Beiker认为在极端环境下,无人驾驶汽车还是需要人工来操作。由此可推知,有些人还是担心无人驾驶汽车的安全问题。B(2018安徽皖南八校联考)She sat at the picnic table alone.Recess (休息) was in full swing.She remained awkward around her classmates.She seemed unsure of what to do or say,yet I could see her eyes longing for acceptance.Many students had already decided that her friendship would not be worth the energy required to overcome the awkwardness.Others teased her.Most ignored herexcept for one.Brianna,the class clown,was making the other students laugh,as usual.“Brianna,do you see Molly down there? Would you mind walking down there and inviting her to come up here with the rest of us?”Brianna sighed.I could tell she didnt want to sacrifice precious minutes of her own recess to do what I was asking of her,but I also knew her heart.She often thought of others before herself - a rare character for anyone,much less a kid.Knowing this choice was hard for her,I pulled out a D-buck,our class currency.Though bribery (行贿) was not the ideal way to handle this situation,I needed her cooperation.“Here,Ill pay you for your time.”She offered an insincere smile,grasped the green paper,and headed down the hill.As the rest of the children screamed and laughed,my eyes locked on Brianna as she neared the picnic table.Molly could be difficult,and I wouldnt have been surprised if she sent Brianna back alone,refusing her invitation.When she encouraged herself to a standing position,I sighed with relief.A minute later,I felt a tap on my shoulder.“Here,Mrs.D.” She handed me the D-buck.“Why?” I asked.“I shouldnt keep this.” Her eyes fell to her feet,guilt radiating from her quiet voice.“I dont want Molly to think I only went to get her so I could earn a D-buck.Shes my friend.”A moment later,they were all laughing again,and who should I see among them,laughing for the first time that week? Molly.5.How was Molly in the authors eyes?A.She often made fun of others.B.She got on well with other kids.C.She was eager to be accepted.D.She refused to make friends with others.6.On what aspect was Brianna different from other kids?A.Clown talent.B.Cooperation.C.Honesty.D.Kindness.7.How was the author feeling when Brianna walked to Molly?A.Worried.B.Regretful.C.Grateful.
