Historically, EVs have not been widely adopted because of limited driving range before needing to be recharged，long recharging time，and a lack of commitment by automakers to produce and market electric cars that have all the comforts of gaspowered cars. Thats changing.As battery technology improves by simultaneously increasing energy storage and reducing cost，major automakers are expected to introduce a new generation of electric cars.Electric cars produce no tailpipe emissions，reduce our dependency on oil，and are cheaper to operate.Of course，the process of producing the electricity moves the emissions further upstream to the utility companys smokestack，but even dirty electricity used in electric cars usually reduce our collective carbon footprint.Another factor is convenience. In one trip to the gas station，you can pump 330 kilowatthours of energy into a 10gallon tank. It would take about 9 days to get the same amount of energy from household electric current.Fortunately，it takes hours and not days to recharge an electric car，because the process is much more efficient.Just as the major car companies were reducing their electric car programs in 2004 and 2005，the perfect storm was brewing on the horizon: a combination of growing acceptance of global warming，oil price increases and runaway sales of the Toyota Prius，a hybrid car which uses gas and electricity.The major auto companies went right back to the drawing board and emerged with big plans for electric cars.As global oil supplies are used up and oil becomes more and more expensive，electric cars are the logical and ecological alternative for the future.本文主要介绍了电动汽车的概念和工作原理、电动汽车的发展历史以及与传统燃油动力汽车比较的优势和劣势，最后还讲了电动汽车的发展前景。1Which of the following was a reason why electric cars were not popular?AElectric cars were not comfortable.BElectric cars were much more expensive.CAutomakers failed to market electric cars.DRecharging electric cars took a long time.D细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，电动汽车重新充电需要很长时间是其未能流行的原因。故选项D符合题意。2The main purpose of the text is to _Ashow readers how hybrid cars workBpersuade readers to buy electric carsCgive readers information about electric carsDprove that electric cars are superior to gasoline carsC主旨大意题。综览全文可知，文章首先介绍了电动汽车的概念和工作原理，然后讲了电动汽车的发展历史以及与传统燃油动力汽车比较的优势和劣势，最后指出了电动汽车的发展前景。由此可知，本文的主要目的是给读者提供一些关于电动汽车的信息。故选项C符合题意。3Whats the writers attitude towards the future of electric cars?ANegative.BPositive.CObjective.DDoubtful.B推理判断题。根据最后一段末句可知，作者对电动汽车的未来持积极的态度。故选项B符合题意。B(2016广州模拟)The United States of America was founded in 1776 after the 13 independent American states rose up against the ruling British，defeated them in the American Revolutionary War，and signed The Declaration of Independence，the document which declared the creation of the new country.The men who led the revolution，drafted The Declaration of Independence，and wrote the first American laws are known as“founding fathers”Benjamin Franklin，whose picture is on the US 100dollar note，was appointed to prepare The Declaration that was eventually signed by the other founding fathers.Franklin was born in 1706 in Boston to a soap maker named Josiah Franklin.His father could not afford full schooling for all his children，but Benjamin loved books and worked in his elder brothers printing business before starting a newspaper called The Pennsylvania Gazette in 1729.He wrote and drew cartoons for the newspaper.In addition，he worked to improve living conditions in the city：introducing street lights，cleaning the roads and building libraries.In the 1740s，Franklin retired from his newspaper and turned to science with great success.He was a very smart man and his work on electricity，including the“kite experiment”which confirmed the nature of lightning，made him famous throughout the world.Franklin earned the title of the“First American”for his efforts to unite the 13 American states，and to win their independence.This part of the story starts in London.He was sent to the city to persuade the British to treat the American states more fairly.It was here that he began interacting with important political thinkers and activists of the time and developing his own political ideas.Following his return to America in 1761 he became much more active in American politics and in the battle against British rule.After the United States of America was established，Franklin held several important positions such as the first United States Postmaster General，Ambassador to France and President of Pennsylvania.He is also famous today for his wise sayings，including “a penny saved is a penny earned”and “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”本文是一篇人物传记。主要讲述了美国开国元勋之一本杰明富兰克林一生中的重大事件，尤其是他对美国社会政治发展方面所做出的杰出贡献以及在其他领域取得的成绩。4What is the article mainly about?A.
