10.From the health point of view we are living in an amazing age.We are free from many of the most dangerous diseases.A large number of once deadly illnesses can now be cured by modem medicine.It is almost certain that one clay medicines will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases,The expectation of life has increased greatly.But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before,every day we witness the unbelievable killing of men,women and children on the roads.Man vs the motor-cart It is a never-ending battle which man is losing.Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.
It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel (方向盤),his car becomes the extension of his personality.There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man's very worst qualities.People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel They say,they are ill-mannered and aggressive,willful as two-year-olds and completely selfish.All their hidden angers and disappointments seem to be brought to die surface by the act of driving.
The surprising thing is that society smiles so gently on the motorist and seems to forgive his behavior.Everything is done for his convenience.Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is ruined by road networks; and the deaths become nothing more than a number every year,to be easily forgotten.
It is high time a world rule was created to reduce this senseless waste of human life.With regard to driving,the laws of some countries are unbelievably lax (不嚴(yán)格) and even the strictest are not strict enough.A rule which was universally accepted could only have an obviously beneficial effect on the accident rate.Here are a few examples of some of the things that might be done.The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should tie put through strict tests for safety each year.Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can damage a person's driving ability.Present drinking and driving laws ( where they exist) should be nude much stricter.Speed limits should be required on all roads.Governments should lay down safety specifications for car factories,as has been done in the USA.All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned.These measures may not sound good enough.But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the number of deaths.After all,the world is for human beings,not motor-cars.

45.What is the main idea of this passage?D
A.Traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists.
B.Thousands of people the world over are killed each year.
C.The laws of some countries about driving are too lax.
D.Only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents.
46.What does the author think of society toward motorists?D
A.Society laughs at the motorists.
B.Huge car parks are built in the cities and towns.
C.Victims of accidents are nothing.
D.Society forgives their rude driving.
47.What does the author mean by saying"his car becomes the extension of his personality"in paragraph 2?A
A.Driving can show his hidden qualities.
B.Driving can show the other part of his personality.
C.Driving can bring out his character.
D.Driving can represent his manners.
48.Which of the followings is NOT mentioned as a way against traffic accidents?A
A.Build more highways.
B.Stricter driving tests.
C.Test drivers every three years.
D.Raise age limit and lay down safety specifications.
49.The author's attitude towards the traffic situation isB.
A.positive  B.unsatisfied   C.a(chǎn)ppealing   D.unclear.

分析 文章講述了交通事故對人類生命的威脅.如今很多疾病都可以被治療,當(dāng)車禍卻給人們的生命帶來了巨大的威脅.因此,制定嚴(yán)格的交通規(guī)則很重要,畢竟世界是人類的世界,不是車輛的世界.

解答 45-49DDAAB
答案:45.D 主旨大意題.文章最后一段說A rule which was universally accepted could only have an obviously beneficial effect on the accident rate制定交通規(guī)則可以有效地降低交通事故的發(fā)生率.故選D.
46.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.文章第二段說The surprising thing is that society smiles so gently on the motorist and seems to forgive his behavior讓人奇怪的是社會(huì)對駕駛者的行為采取容忍的態(tài)度.故選D.
47.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.文章第二段說There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man's very worst qualities毫無疑問機(jī)動(dòng)車可以讓人最糟糕的品質(zhì)展現(xiàn)出來.故選A.
48.A 細(xì)節(jié)判斷題.文章提到了制定更嚴(yán)格的駕駛考試,每年對司機(jī)都要進(jìn)行考核,題干駕駛者的年齡.只有A項(xiàng)文章沒有提及.故選A.
49.B 寫作態(tài)度判斷題.文章最后一段說With regard to driving,the laws of some countries are unbelievably lax (不嚴(yán)格) and even the strictest are not strict enough就駕駛而言,一些國家的制度不夠嚴(yán)格,可以知道作者對交通現(xiàn)狀是不滿意的.故選B.

點(diǎn)評 閱讀理解是考查語篇理解能力.?嫉念}型有:推理判斷題;主旨大意題;細(xì)節(jié)理解題;猜測詞意題.近幾年又出現(xiàn)了兩種新的考查方式:寫作態(tài)度判斷題和文章結(jié)構(gòu)題.解題時(shí),在讀懂文章的基礎(chǔ)上,還有特別注意掌握題型的特征,尤其是細(xì)節(jié)題和推斷題不可混淆:細(xì)節(jié)題是文章信息的再現(xiàn);推斷題是文章信息的提取.本題是廣告類文章,考查主要是以細(xì)節(jié)題為主,細(xì)節(jié)題要注意常用的出題陷阱有:夸大,縮小,張冠李戴,偷梁換柱,無中生有等,做題時(shí)要看清看準(zhǔn).
