We were disappointed to learn about Chrysler Dodge’s new car, the Viper. It must be the most ungreen car of recent years. It can carry only two people but it is extremely powerful, with a top speed of 165 mph. It will go from 0-60 mph in just four seconds. From our point of view, the worst feature is the petrol consumption: just 15miles per gallon. This is a car from the past, a gas-guzzler for people who want to show off and who don’t care about polluting the air.
.
                 ASTON MARTIN DB2/4(1975)
This car is a fine example of the power and elegance of the Aston Martin sports cars of the 1950s. It was developed from the earlier DB2, but this model was intended to give more room: if you look in the back window, you will see two small seats. But the main attraction of Aston Martins was their power: almost 200kph. 765 of these cars were manufactured between 1953 and 1959. This model was donated to the museum in 1986.
 
In the future, lorry drivers could be free to doze or read a newspaper as their vehicles travel along the motorways of the world, according to Mercedes-Benz. They say that lorries could travel on special lorry-only lanes, and that electronic safety systems would ‘read’ the road ahead, keep a safe distance between vehicles and set the speed. The driver would only take over when the lorry left the motorway and returned to normal roads. This vision of the future was explained at he Hanover Commercial Vehicle Show recently, at which Mercedes showed their EXT-92 experimental lorry of the future. Among the many features, the lorry would include a luxurious living area for the driver, complete with bunk bed, microwave cooker, television, telephone and fax machine.
小題1:The writer of passage 1 criticizes (批評(píng)) the Viper because______.
A.he/she dislikes the colourB.it is too small for most families
C.it uses too much petrol and pollutes the air.
D.it is very fast and will break the speed limit
小題2:The main purpose of Passage 2 is to______.
A.try to sell a second-hand carB.explain why this car has four seats
C. give interesting informationD.describe a new car planned for the future
小題3:In Passage 3, the writer’s main purpose is to ______.
A.warn readers about a dangerous development
B.try to sell a new commercial vehicle
C.inform readers about future transport ideasD.tell a silly story
小題4:Which of the following would be the best title for Passage 3?
