5.Starting next year,F(xiàn)ord Motor Co.will allow parents to limit the speed at which their teenage children drive their car.
The company will make a new feature on many models that can limit teen drivers to 80mph(130kph),using a computer chip(芯片) in the key.
Parents in the United States,where most teens can get their driving license at 16,also have the option of programming the car key to limit the audio system volume(音量),and to sound continuous alarm if the driver doesn't wear a seat belt.
More than half of parents surveyed worry that their teenage children are driving at unsafe speeds,talking on hand-held cell phones or texting while driving,or otherwise driving without due care and attention.More than a third of parents also are concerned that their teens do not always fasten their safety belts when driving.
"Our message to parents is,hey,we are proving you some conditions to give your new drivers that may allow you to feel a little more comfortable in giving them the car more often,"said Jim Buczkowski,F(xiàn)ord's director of electronic and electrical systems engineering.
More than 5,000US teens die each year in car crashes.The rate of crashes,fatal(致命的) and nonfatal,per mile driven for 16-year-old drivers is almost 10times the rate for drivers aged 30to 59,according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The new feature,called"MyKey",will be standard on an unspecified number of Ford models when the new models come out late next summer.The feature will spread to the entire Ford,Lincoln and Mercury Lineup as models are updated,spokesman Wes Sherwood said.
The company already uses computer chips in its keys to prevent thefts.The car won't start unless it recognizes the chip in the key.
"It's making use of existing technology,and through the magic of software,we're able to build features on top of the features we already have,"Buczkowski said.

64.According to the passage,MyKey canA.
A.limit speed and prevent thefts
B.a(chǎn)djust the audio system's volume
C.remind drivers to answer the phone
D.help drivers wear a seat belt
65.According to Jim Buczkowski,MyKeyC.
A.helps parents feel more comfortable in their cars
B.provides parents more chances to get along with children
C.helps parents feel less worried when giving cars to children
D.discourages parents from giving cars to their children more often
66.From the passage,we can learn thatB.
A.teens often drive 10times faster than adults
B.many parents think their children drive too fast
C.Ford will take over Lincoln and Mercury Lineup
D.MyKey has nothing to do with existing technology
67.Ford Motor Company's new car key may be most welcomed byC.
A.teens
B.passengers
C.parents
D.policemen.

分析 本文講述了福特公司為有車的家長(zhǎng)們發(fā)明了一種能控制車速的鑰匙,能夠在孩子開車的時(shí)候控制車速減少危險(xiǎn).

解答 64、A;細(xì)節(jié)推理題.根據(jù)第二段:The company will make a new feature on many models that can limit teen drivers to 80 mph(130 kph),using a computer chip(芯片) in the key.和倒數(shù)第二段:The company already uses computer chips in its keys to prevent thefts.The car won't start unless it recognizes the chip in the key.可知MyKey既可以限制車速又可以防盜.故選A.
65、C;細(xì)節(jié)推理題.根據(jù)第五段:"Our message to parents is,hey,we are proving you some conditions to give your new drivers that may allow you to feel a little more comfortable in giving them the car more often,"said Jim Buczkowski,可知MyKey可以讓家長(zhǎng)們更放心的將自己車交給他們的孩子,減少家長(zhǎng)們對(duì)孩子開車安全的擔(dān)心和憂慮.故選C.
66、B;細(xì)節(jié)推理題.根據(jù)第四段:More than half of parents surveyed worry that their teenage children are driving at unsafe speeds,talking on hand-held cell phones or texting while driving,or otherwise driving without due care and attention.可知許多家長(zhǎng)認(rèn)為他們的孩子開車時(shí)的車速過(guò)快,很不安全.故選B.
67、C;細(xì)節(jié)推理題.文章開篇就講了:Starting next year,F(xiàn)ord Motor Co.will allow parents to limit the speed at which their teenage children drive their car.福特公司將會(huì)在下年伊始讓家長(zhǎng)來(lái)控制孩子們開車時(shí)的車速.第二段:The company will make a new feature on many models that can limit teen drivers to 80 mph(130 kph),using a computer chip(芯片) in the key.接著介紹了家長(zhǎng)們用福特公司發(fā)明的新的鑰匙來(lái)控制車速,所以這個(gè)新發(fā)明的能控制車速的鑰匙應(yīng)該受到家長(zhǎng)們的歡迎,故選C.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本篇文章都是細(xì)節(jié)推理題,答題的已給選項(xiàng)也一般不會(huì)和短文相關(guān)詞語(yǔ)完全相同,需要考生自己理解句子,延伸推理出題目答案,比一般細(xì)節(jié)理解題偏難.

The monitor in my class has suggested that we donate some books in our homes and set up a book corner in my class…Most of us are in favour of the proposal,thinking we can share learning resources and save much money in this way.Also we can greatly increase our reading amount and broaden our horizon,which in return helps develop our interest in reading.
But some students are against it.They think this will add to our learning burden.Spending too much time in reading may also have a bad effect on our study.What's worse,books are difficult to manage.Some students are not willing to take charge of books.
In my opinion,this is a good idea.Not only does it benefit our study,but also it gives us a good chance to improve our ability of practical management..
