4、iesel(生质柴油) engine.The car resulted from the efforts of the University of Warwicks Manufacturing Group and the Warwick Innovative Manufacturing Research Center. They developed the car because of criticism of the racing industry.Automobile racing is one of the most widely watched sports in the world.

5、 But it also is considered one of the least friendly to the environment. Race cars burn a lot of fuel, and create a lot of air pollution.In recent years, the racing industry has taken steps to protect the environment. More racing companies are now producing cars that use less energy. These cars prod

6、uce less pollution than vehicles that depend on traditional fuels, like gasoline.Last year, two American government agencies and an international organization announced a number of policies for environmentallyfriendly racing. They are known as the Green Racing Protocols(协议)The two agencies are the U

7、nited States Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency. The organization SAE International represents engineers and technical experts in the transportation industry. Officials from the American Le Mans Series also were involved in the effort.The American Le Mans Series became the

8、first racing event to use the protocols in its Green Challenge competition. The race was held in October of last year.Last month, the World First Formula Three racing car was set to run in its first competitive race at the Formula Three Championship Final at Brands Hatch. It would have been the firs

9、t biodieselpowered car to race at Formula Three.Current Formula Three rules let only gasolinepowered cars compete.

DThe new racing car was the first biodieselpowered car to race at Formula Three.BBCBWhy should

13、mankind explore space? Why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits? Why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth? These are questions that, understandably, are very often asked. Perhaps the best

14、answer lies in our genetic makeup(基因构成)as human beings. What drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? The wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival. Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic

15、tendency to expand wherever possible. Nearly every successful civilization has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding areas can be identified and prepared for. Without knowledge, we may be completely destroyed by the danger. With knowledge, we can lessen its effects. Exploration a

16、lso allows minerals and other potential(潜在的)resources to be found. Even if we have no immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful later. Resources may be more than physical possessions. Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. The techniques may have medical applicatio

17、ns which can improve the length or quality of our lives. We have already benefited from other spinoffs including improvements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems. Even nonstick pans and mirrored sunglasses are byproducts(副产品)of technological

18、developments in the space industry! While many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative, brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us. While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was fo

19、rmed or how it works, it also holds dangers. The danger exists, but knowledge can help human being to survive. Without the ability to reach out across space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist. While Earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans woul

20、d allow us to live on other planets. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future. 24Why does the author mention the questions in Paragraph 1? ATo express his doubts. BTo compare different ideas. CTo introduce p

21、oints for discussion. DTo describe the conditions on Earth. 25What is the reason for exploring space based on Paragraph 2? AHumans are natureborn to do so. BHumans have the tendency to fight. CHumans may find new sources of food. DHumans dont like to stay in the same place. 26. The underlined word “

22、spinoffs” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to_. Asurvival chances Bpotential resources Cunexpected benefits Dphysical possessionsCACCOne evening in February 2007, a student named Paula Ceely brought her car to a stop on a remote road in Wales. She got out to open a metal gate that blocked her path. Th

23、ats when she heard the whistle sounded by the driver of a train. Her Renault Clio was parked across a railway line. Seconds later, she watched the train drag her car almost a kilometre down the railway tracks. Ceelys near miss made the news because she blamed it on the GPS (导航仪). She had never drive

24、n the route before. It was dark and raining heavily. Ceely was relying on her GPS, but it made no mention of the crossing. “I put my complete trust in the device and it led me right into the path of a speeding train，” she told the BBC.Who is to blame here? Rick Stevenson, who tells Ceelys story in h

25、is book When Machines Fail Us, points the finger at the limitations of technology. We put our faith in digital devices, he says, but our digital helpers are too often not up to the job. They are filled with small problems. And its not just GPS devices: Stevenson takes us on a tour of digital disaste

26、rs involving everything from mobile phones to wireless keyboards.来源:Zxxk.Com The problem with his argument in the book is that its not clear why he only focuses on digital technology, while there may be a number of other possible causes. A mapmaker might have left the crossing off a paper map. Maybe

27、 we should blame Ceely for not paying attention. Perhaps the railway authorities are at fault for poor singalling system. Or maybe someone has studied the relative dangers and worked out that there really is something specific wrong with the GPS equipment. But Stevenson doesnt say.Its a problem that

28、 runs through the book. In a section on cars, Stevenson gives an account of the advanced techniques that criminals use to defeat computerbased locking systems for cars. He offers two independent sets of figures on car theft; both show a small rise in some parts of the country. He says that once agai

29、n not all new locks have proved reliable. Perhaps, but maybe its also due to the shortage of policemen on the streets. Or changing social circumstances. Or some combination of these factors. The game between humans and their smart devices is amusing and complex. It is shaped by economics and psychol

30、ogy and the cultures we live in. Somewhere in the mix of those forces there may be a way for a wiser use of technology. If there is such a way, it should involve more than just an awareness of the shortcomings of our machines. After all, we have lived with them for thousands of years. They have prob

31、ably been fooling us for just as long. 27What did Paula Ceely think was the cause of her accident? AShe was not familiar with the road. BIt was dark and raining heavily then.来源:学,科,网 CThe railway workers failed to give the signal. DHer GPS device didnt tell her about the crossing.28. The phrase “nea
