11、二段最后the Hoverbike is able to get in and out ofsmall spaces very quickly. It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed, 可知， Hoverbike 能够很快地进出小空间。它可快速地在大陆上移动，因为它可以折叠和包装。分析选项可知，A 说不能快速进入小空间，故错误。D 项说在折叠和包装后可以快速运输。即D 正确。故选D。（2）推理判断题。第六段 Peter Coker说Jetpack从一开始就围绕安全进行

12、的。安全可靠性是最重要的因素。我们在车的现行结构中植入了了安全性，非常类似于Formula One 赛车。分析选可知A 项（ Jetpack 安全可靠）符合题意，故答案选A。（ 3）猜测词义题。根据最后一段Mr. Coker says it also has a parachute （ 降落伞 ） that can beused should there be an emergency. " IStarts to work at very low altitude .,Coker 先生说 Jetpack上也有降落伞，可以在紧急情况下使用。在海拔非常低的情况下开始用它”。由此可知，Je
