浙江省杭州市第十三中学2017届九年级开学考试英语试卷 (2)

阅读理解

      What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves? Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping. But none of them are worried about the road ahead.

      Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on driverless cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has gotten a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.

      These cars are now still in the testing stages. But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driven cars could be put into use very soon.

      The cars already have many features(特点)allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions.

      Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driven car might be possible.

      The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car may be able to prevent these. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example, doesn't believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies can also be mistakes.

(1)、The main purpose of the first paragraph is to _____

A、make readers wonder about self-driven cars. B、get readers to pay attention to road safety. C、tell readers to keep away from heavy traffic. D、tell readers what self-driven cars look like.
(2)、From the passage, we know that the testing self-driven cars can already ______   

A、avoid being hit by other vehicles on roads. B、control the speed in dangerous situations. C、turn around when getting near objects. D、pick up their owners.
(3)、What might make the self-driven cars run safely according to the passage?

   a. e-reading       b. wireless signals   c. cameras      d. GPS

A、a, b, c B、a, b, d C、b, c, d D、a, c, d
(4)、What is Whit Drake's attitude toward the safety of the self-driven cars?   

A、He has doubt about it. B、He believes it completely. C、He doesn't care about it. D、He thinks its technologies are convincing(使人信服的).

Many drivers are not very clear about the roads in strange places. Especially, the navigation(导航) just tells the exit number, which makes it easy for drivers to get on the wrong road. However, now you don't have to worry about these complicated(复杂的) roads anymore. Lane(车道)level navigation based on the Beidou satellite system(北斗卫星系统) will be popular in China very soon.

The socalled lanelevel navigation uses highlycorrect technology to show us the real road situation. Compared with past navigation, it can provide exact road guidance in some complicated parts to help drivers choose the best way.

In January 2023, an online map officially introduced an enhanced version(加强版) of lane­level navigation, which helped make good use of the Beidou satellite system more deeply. It greatly improved the speed of receiving information and giving answers and the accuracy of accuracy lanelevel positioning.

In the new version of the online map, lanelevel navigation can be used on all kinds of roads. The new version has a different advantage from the old one: it can guide us clearly where to go in complicated crossings.

In big cities, for drivers who come to these cities for the first time, overhead bridges make it easy to make driving mistakes in strange places. So how does lane­level navigation solve the problem? After careful study, planning and organization, lanelevel navigation uses the Beidou satellite system to improve the positioning accuracy and guide drivers.

For the driverless industry, this map is a good piece of technology, which makes it safer and more widely used.

 请阅读短文,从每小题所给的四个选项中选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。

It's reported that 800 million people around the world have experienced back pain. And many of them find that their pain keeps coming back. ____ But scientists believe that doing one simple thing could help: walking. 

Scientists invited 700 people to take part in a study. Most were women and all of them had recently experienced back pain. The people were put into two groups. One group took part in a walking program and had six meetings with a doctor. People in this group were asked to walk half an hour five days a week, while those in the other group didn't do anything. The scientists followed up the two groups for three years. 

The scientists' findings are surprising. People in the walking group had an average (平均) of  208 days before their back pain recurred, while those in the other group felt the pain again after an average of 112 days. What's more, people in the walking group also made far fewer visits to the doctor. 

Why is walking helpful to lower back pain? Scientists are not yet certain of the reasons. But they think it's probably because walking can get the muscles (肌肉) stronger and improve sleep. As for how to walk, they suggest walking on a flat (平整的) surface. People also should listen to their bodies, as walking too far or for too long could make the pain worse.
