?、?閱讀理解
A
The sky is a huge chessboard for air traffic controllers. In 314 control towers and navigation(導(dǎo)航) centers across the country, the air traffic controllers comfortably sit down in windowless rooms, staring at radar screens that show aircraft moving through
thousands of square miles. Radio headsets make nonstop noises with pilots requesting course changes, asking for greater or smaller heights, and, on a bad day, declaring emergencies. Each controller communicates with as many as 30 aircraft at a time, giving commands that direct each plane's movement.
A half century ago, flying was a much simpler affair. Pilots navigated by pointing their planes where they wanted to go, and it was up to the captain to avoid running into other aircraft in the sky. But with the increase in air travel following World War Ⅱ, the government stepped into regulate-control with rules-flight paths around major airports, and the responsibility for navigation changed from pilots to air traffic controllers.
Remarkably,navigation technology has changed very little in the 50 years since its first show.Although modern planes are equipped with computers, pilots lack the ability to“see”the traffic around them and must rely on ground-based controllers for directions. The controllers,in turn, use ground-based radars and radio transmitters to keep planes away from one another.The truth is,your car's global positioning system(GPS) has more precision than the air traffic control technology in use today.
語篇解讀:科技日新月異,可是導(dǎo)航技術(shù)幾十年來幾乎停滯不前,飛行員仍然依靠地面控制系統(tǒng)的雷達(dá)和無線電傳輸器為其導(dǎo)航,其精確度甚至比不上車輛上的全球定位系統(tǒng)。
1.The author's attitude towards the present air traffic control technology is ________.
A.positive
B.indifferent
C.negative
D.uncertain
解析:作者態(tài)度題。最后一段提到導(dǎo)航技術(shù)從誕生之日起到現(xiàn)在幾乎沒有任何變化,現(xiàn)代化飛機(jī)仍然依靠地面控制,而地面控制系統(tǒng)還在借助地面雷達(dá)和無線電傳輸器的幫助為飛機(jī)導(dǎo)航,并且當(dāng)今車輛上的全球定位系統(tǒng)比航空運(yùn)輸控制技術(shù)更為準(zhǔn)確,由此可判斷作者對其持“否定”態(tài)度。B項(xiàng)表示“漠不關(guān)心的,中立的”,顯然不正確。
答案:C
2.In the text,________ about the air traffic control is not mentioned.
A.the present situation
B.the history
C.the author's concern
D.the future development
解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。文章中沒有提到航空運(yùn)輸控制技術(shù)的未來發(fā)展趨勢。
答案:D
3.The underlined word“ precision” means ________.
A.popularity
B.influence
C.exactness
D.function
解析:詞義猜測題。如今的飛行員仍然依靠地面控制系統(tǒng)為他們導(dǎo)航,因?yàn)樗麄儫o法看到周圍的飛行情況,而此處又把車輛全球定位系統(tǒng)與之進(jìn)行對比,由此可推測此詞的含義是“精確性”。
答案:C
4.Following the last paragraph,________ is likely to be discussed.
A.the disadvantages of the present air traffic control technology
B.the future progress in the car industry
C.the experiment to use cars' global positioning system in aircraft
D.the history of air traffic control techniques
解析:推理判斷題。最后一段的后半部分提到如今的航空運(yùn)輸控制技術(shù)還比不上車輛上的全球定位系統(tǒng),由此可推斷下文作者將要敘述的是目前航空運(yùn)輸控制技術(shù)存在的弊端。
