19、oad or motorway, two of his problems are to keep the car at a fairly steady speed and to make sure that he does not run into the car in front of him. Easy enough you may thinkbut it is even easier on a long motorway drive for a mans attention to wander. Some experiments have been made with a system

20、which involves computer control of these two problems. The cars computer keeps the speed steady. At the same time the distance between the car and another car in front of it is rear reflectors(后反射镜)of the car in front and is reflected back, so enabling the distance to be measured. This information i

21、s fed to the computer, which adjusts its speed control accordingly.There are also to be experiments with a system called “Minigap“. This system will he particularly useful to driver stuck in long queues of cars, as the computer would control not only the speed and the distance from the car in front,

22、 but also the steering(方向盘操纵). Using this system, a driver could switch over to Minigap, take out his newspaper and do the crossword puzzle while car drives most of the way home automatically. To the roadside observer, the line of cars would seem like a train which carriages could join or leave at w

23、ill (任意).41 What is the main subject of the passage?（A）Speed control.（B） The system “Minigap“.（C） The computer and the motorcar.（D）Two of drivers problems.42 The word “queues“(Line 2, Para. 2)probably means_.（A）trains（B） distances（C） lines（D）steering43 According to the passage what is NOT the result

26、sumers, a fact not lost on marketers and advertisers. Green advertising, started in the mid-1980s when issues of the environment muscled their way to the forefront of marketing.Advertisers saw the consumer desire for environmentally safe products and tried to meet the demand as quickly as possible.

27、Not surprisingly, this first wave suffered from rough and poorly conceived marketing efforts. Many advertisers embraced a genuine concern for the environment.But consumers realized that some companies made false claims and exploited the movement, using such nebulous(模糊的)terms as “environmentally fri

28、endly“ and “green“.Consumers grew wary of environmental appeals, and advertisers reacted by reducing its emphasis. To avoid future trouble, many companies waited for state and federal governments to define terms and provide legal guidelines, which paved the road to a second wave. In 1992 the Federal

29、 Trade Commission established guidelines for green marketing, followed shortly by-state governments, California passed particularly strict laws, setting definitions for terms like “ozone friendly, “ “biodegradable, “ and “recycled“.According to the states court, “California seeks to guard against po

30、tentially specious; claims or ecological puffery(吹捧)about products with minimal environmental attributes. “ Texas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Tennessee, Connecticut, and Washington soon followed the Golden States lead. The rigid regulations have left a number of advertisers confused and frustrated, a

31、lthough some feel that environmental claims have already peaked and are on their way out.

34、instream also becomes concerned about it.50 Which of the following state takes the lead in guarding against ecological puffery of products with minimal environmental attributes?（A）Massachusetts.（B） Texas.（C） California.（D）Connecticut.50 Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in o

35、rder to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; wh

36、ile attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a studen

37、t to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes

38、a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the acade

39、mic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authorit

40、y is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.51 Normally a student would at least attend_ classes each week.（A）36（B） 12（C） 20（D）1552 According to the first paragraph, an American student is allowed_.（A）to live in a different university（B） to take a particular course in a

Air bags are des

45、igned to protect against sudden, fierce frontal highway impacts.Five years ago evidence of serious air-bag injuries began to surface. Drivers in minor fender benders suffered severe eye and ear injuries, broken bones and third-degree burns from the force of the inflating bags. In December 1991 the N

46、ational Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA)advised parents to avoid putting rear-facing infant sets in front of air bags, acknowledging that the force of the explosive bag could harm infants, whose heads were only inches away from the devices.Last October it was determined that all children

47、 12 and under were more susceptible to injury and death than adults; their more fragile bodies were seated lower, increasing the impact of the air bag to the head area. In addition, more children were not properly restrained or were out of position when the air bag inflated. On November 22, 1996, af

48、ter nearly 60 deaths and thousands of injuries were attributed to the devices, the NHTSA mandated improved labels for all new vehicles, warning of the risk to children under 13. Despite these problems, officials stress the overall effectiveness of these devices. All in all, air bags work well and ar

49、e responsible for an 11 percent reduction in driver fatalities, “ says NHTSA Administrator Dr. Ricardo Martinez. “First and foremost, make sure youre properly buckled up before getting on the road, “ says Brain ONeill, president of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Keep in mind how close you sit to an air bag. Push seats as
