17、ar 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 which involves computer control of these two problems.
18、 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 is fed to the computer, which adjusts its speed control
19、 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, but also the steering(方向盘操纵). Using this system, a dr
20、iver 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 will (任意).41 What is the main subject of the passage?（A
21、）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 after using a computer control system?（A）A car would
22、be like a train.（B） A car could be driven automatically.（C） A car would not run into another car.（D）The speed of a car could be kept steady.44 The word “This information“(Line 8, Para. 1.)refers to_.（A）the beam（B） the car in front（C） the distance（D）the rear reflectors45 The lines of cars would seem
23、like a train because_.（A）the drivers could read newspaper in cars（B） the cars join（C） the drivers switch over to Minigap（D）the car could leave at will45 Over the past decade, the environmental movement has exploded onto the mind of mainstream consumers, a fact not lost on marketers and advertisers.
24、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. Not surprisingly, this first wave suffered from rough
25、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 friendly“ and “green“.Consumers grew wary of environmenta
26、l 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 Trade Commission established guidelines for green mar
27、keting, 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 potentially specious; claims or ecological puffery(吹捧)ab
28、out 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, although some feel that environmental claims have alrea
29、dy peaked and are on their way out. Some believe that weve now entered green advertisings third wave, where environmental concern is now part of the mainstream.46 What were some early problems with Green advertisements?（A）They were expensive.（B） No one believed them.（C） They were unsuccessful.（D）The
30、y were often deceptive.47 What was the response by consumers?（A）Consumers were responsible.（B） Consumers were hostile.（C） Consumers didnt care all the time.（D）Consumers got tired of it.48 How did Green advertisements change after the first wave?（A）They became more popular.（B） They were more regulate
31、d.（C） They became better produced.（D）They became less honest.49 When did the green third wave come?（A）When environmental concern rise.（B） When advertisers are self-regulating themselves.（C） When advertisements become very regulated.（D）When the mainstream also becomes concerned about it.50 Which of t
32、he 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 order to graduate, and each course which he attends giv
33、es 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; while attending a university a student will probably att
34、end 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 student to move between one university and another during hi
35、s 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 a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite o
36、f 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 academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have br
37、oken 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 authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him l
38、ater 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 different university（C） to live at home and drive to c

41、 are usually well paid55 The student organizations seem to be effective in_.（A）dealing with the academic affairs of the university（B） ensuring that the students observe university regulations（C） evaluating students performance by bringing them before a court（D）keeping up the students enthusiasm for
42、social activities55 Nearly 54 million cars and trucks in the United States are equipped with driver side air bags located in the center of the steering wheel. 24 million also have a passenger-side device located in the dashboard. Air bags are designed to protect against sudden, fierce frontal highwa
43、y 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 National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA)ad
44、vised 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 12 and under were more susceptible to injury and deat
45、h 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, after nearly 60 deaths and thousands of injuries were at
46、tributed 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 are responsible for an 11 percent reduction in driver fa
47、talities, “ 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 far back as possib
48、le, remaining just close enough to control the pedals. Your face and torso should be at least 10 to 12 inches from the steering column. “Its not a bad idea actually to measure the distance with a ruler to be sure. “ adds ONeill.Adjustable steering wheels should be pointed toward the chest rather tha
49、n the head to prevent inflating bag from damaging the face or neck. Also, position hands at nine oclock and three oclock on the wheel to keep your arms away from an opening air bag. Pregnant women in particular should keep their abdomen as distant from the air bag as possible. In the final trimester, women should point
