They see a day i

23、n the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of travel in the foreseeable future.The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 ye

24、ars. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types.Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion (拥

25、挤). One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system.When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable (可伸缩的) arm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will bec

26、ome electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the cars movements.The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and r

27、eserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer (蜂鸣器) that will warn of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to carry 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,400 to 2,000

28、 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway.（分数：6.00）(1).One significant improvement in the future car will probably be_.（分数：1.00）A.its power sourceB.its driving systemC.its monitoring systemD.its seating capacity(2).What is the authors main concern?（分数：1.00）A.How to render automobiles po

29、llution-free.B.How to make smaller and safer automobiles.C.How to solve the problem of traffic jams.D.How to develop an automated subway system.(3).What provides autos with electric power in an automated highway system?（分数：1.00）A.A rail.B.An engine.C.A retractable arm.D.A computer controller.(4).In

31、siastic.B.Pessimistic.C.Optimistic.D.Cautious.(6).In the second paragraph, the word “powered“ can be best replaced by_.（分数：1.00）A.drivenB.forcedC.pushedD.carried十、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：6.00)Do you know that all human beings have a “comfortable zone“ regulating the distance they stand from someone whe

32、n they talk? This distance varies in interesting ways among people of different cultures.Greeks, others of the Eastern Mediterranean, and many of those from South America normally stand close together when they talk, often moving their faces even closer as they warm up in a conversation. North Ameri

33、cans find this awkward and often back away a few inches. Studies have found that they tend to feel most comfortable at about 21 inches apart. In much of Asia and Africa, there is even more space between two speakers in conversation. This greater space subtly lends an air of dignity and respect. This

34、 matter of space is nearly always unconscious, but it is interesting to observe.This difference applies also to the closeness with which people sit together, the extent which they lean over one another in conversation, how they move as they argue, or make an emphatic point. In the United States, for

35、 example, people try to keep their bodies apart even in a crowded elevator; in Paris they take it as it comes!Although North Americans have a relatively wide “comfortable zone“ for talking, they communicate, a great deal with their hands-not only with gestures but also with touch. They put a sympath

36、etic hand on a persons shoulder to demonstrate warmth of feeling or an arm around him in sympathy they nudge a man in the ribs to emphasize a funny story; they pat an arm in reassurance or stroke a childs head in affection, they readily take someones arm to help him across a street or direct him alo

37、ng an unfamiliar route. To many peopleespecially those from Asia or the Muslim countriessuch bodily contact is unwelcome, especially if inadvertently done with the left-hand. (The left hand carries no special significance in the U. S. Many Americans are simply left-handed and use that hand more. )（分

42、0)For an increasing number of students at American universities, Old is suddenly in. The reason is obvious: the graying of America means jobs. Coupled with the aging of the baby-boom (生育高峰) generation, a longer life span means that the nations elderly population is bound to expand significantly over

43、 the next 40 years. By 2040, 25 percent of all Americans will be older than 65, up from 14 percent in 1995. The change poses profound questions for government and society, of course. But it also creates career opportunities in medicine and health professions, and in law and business as well. “In add

44、ition to the doctors, were going to need more sociologists, biologists, urban planners and specialized lawyers,“ says Professor Edward Schneider of the University of Southern Californias (USC) School of Gerontology (老年学).Lawyers can specialize in “elder law“; which covers everything from trusts and

45、estates to nursing-home abuse and age discrimination (歧视). Businessmen see huge opportunities in the elder market because the baby boomers, 74 million strong, are likely to be the wealthiest group of retirees in human history. “Any student who combines an expert knowledge in gerontology with, say, a

46、n MBA or law degree will have a license to print money,“ one professor says.Margarine Santos is a 21-year-old senior at USC. She began college as a biology major but found she was “really bored with bacteria“. So she took a class in gerontology and discovered that she liked it. She says, “I did volu

47、nteer work in retirement homes and it was very satisfying. /（分数：6.00）(1).“.Old is suddenly in“ (Lines 12, Par（分数：1.00）A.1) most probably means_.A.
