driver.inspired by statistics blaming human error for most accidents，toyota and its competitors are designing “intelligent” cars that can almost drive themselves on the highway.the systems are designed to reduce human tiredness and the mistakes that often result.this kind of support is what drivers need most in a country with some of the most crowded roads in the world.that is why it should not be surprising that japan is leading the race to make cars smarter.to provide a safer ride，japanese automakers are turning to technologies like laser radar and machine vision to replace tired eyes and wandering minds.an infrared(红外线的) radar unit fixed on the bumper is part of a new cruise(巡航) control method that toyota introduced in august 1997.its now an optional(随意的) feature on its celsior luxury car that costs 70,000 yuan($648)the “adaptive” system tracks(尾随) the car ahead，and slows down or speeds up the car automatically to keep a safer distance in highway traffic.the same technology has also been used by some cars made by toyotas competitors.subaru，a type of its legacy wagon，made its first appearance last september with active driving assist(ada)，which besides adjusting cruising speed，sounds an alarm if the car goes out of its lane(车道) or makes a turn too fast.in the latter case，it down shifts gear even before the driver starts to brake.an even smarter system is coming from honda.called honda intelligent driver support(hids)，it“sees” the road through a tiny camera on the windshield and helps steer(操纵) the car down the middle of lane.a computer picks out line on the highway surface and touched the cars steering wheel in the right direction.honda got approval in march to start testing hids on the highway and says it will arrive in showrooms in the near future.31why are japanese automakers developing cars that can almost drive themselves on the highway?abecause they want to win the car competition.bbecause many accidents resulted from the mistakes made by drivers.cbecause drivers are always tired when driving the car.dbecause people dont want to drive the cars themselves.答案b事实细节题。根据第二段.human error for most accidents.可知应选b。32what is the main purpose for the automakers to design the system of the new cars?ato make them run faster so that they can sell them at higher prices.bto make them keep to the lane without being controlled.cto help drivers make fewer mistakes so that accidents can be avoided.dto use some advanced devices like laser radar and machine vision.答案c事实细节题。根据第三段的第一句话the systems are designed to reduce human tiredness and the mistakes.可知应选c。33we can infer from the passage that _.aaccidents always occur in the crowded streetsbtraffic accidents are likely to happen when drivers are tired and carelesscaccidents happen because traffic rules are not obeyeddmany accidents occur because there are no advanced systems答案b推理判断题。第四段.to replace tired eyes and wandering minds.推理可知b项正确。34if you drive the car with hids，you will find _.ayour car is always keeping the right directionbyour car is slowed down or speeded up automaticallycyour car is controlled by an infrared radardyou are always keeping a safer distance on the highway答案a事实细节题。根据倒数第二段 a computer picks out lines and touched the cars steering wheel in the right direction.可知。.任务型读写(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。tuvalu，a tiny country in the pacific ocean，has asked for help as it fears it will be swallowed up by the sea.storms and huge waves are a constant threat and none of tuvalus nine little islands is more than five meters above sea level，salt water is already entering the countrys drinking water supply，as well as damaging plants that produce fruit and vegetable._35_._36_.venice，a historic city in italy best known for its canals，has sunk about 24 cm over the past 100 years.experts say that it will have sunk another 2050 cm by 2050.a century ago，st.marks square，the lowest point in the city，flooded about nine times a year，nowadays，it happens more than 100 times.while venice is slowly sinking into the mud on which it stands，tuvalus rising sea level is caused by global warming.the average global temperature has increased by almost 0.5 centigrade degrees over the past century; scientists expect it to rise by extra 13 degrees over the next 100 years.warmer weather makes glaciers(冰川)melt，adding more water to the ocean.the warmer temperatures also make water expand，so it takes up more space，causing the sea level to rise.the sea level has risen about 1025 cm in the last 100 years.37_.through burning coal，oil and gas，people have been increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere，such as co2.this adds to the power of the greenhouse effect，making the planet even warmer.many scientists believe that，if the warming is not stopped，there will be huge climate changes._38_.39_，the sea will swallow up millions of homes and the world will be flooded with “climate refugees” looking for somewhere to live.athe main cause of global warming is human pollutionbshould this come truecwithout urgent help，the countrys days are numbereddbut tuvalu is not the first place to face sinking into the seaethe
