Chengmai next month with your parents. I went there by car last October with my cousin. We stayed there for a

New York is a very large city with 8 million people. How do so many people move about the city on their way
to work and school? So, we should know something about its transport(交通). In New York you can travel about
the city by underground, bus, taxi and car.
The underground runs on the railroad lines under the city. Traveling by underground is the fastest way to get
around the city. The second way to travel around the city is by bus. It’s a slower way to travel. This is because the
bus moves in road traffic which is often heavy.
You can also travel around the city by taxi. This is the most expensive way, but the taxi will take you to the
very place you wish to go to. If traffic is heavy, the taxi will be slow.
During the mornings and afternoons, there is the “rush hour”. This is the time when the traffic is very heavy
with people going to and from work. The last way to get around New York is using your own car. However, it’s not
easy for you to drive, especially when you are driving in the “rush hour”. The best time to travel around the city is
from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. because it isn’t “rush hour”.
51．How many ways of traveling around the city are mentioned in the passage?
A．Two B．Three C．Four
52．The most expensive way to travel in New York is ________.
A．by subway B．by taxi C．by bus
53．The phrase “rush hour” in the fourth paragraph means “________” in Chinese.
A．比赛中的冲刺时刻 B．一小时内所跑的路程 C．(上下班)交通高峰
54．If you travel around New York in your own car, which of the following is the best time?
A．From 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. B．From 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. C．From 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
55．From the passage we know that in New York ________.
A．there is no “rush hour” from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
B．the traffic is heavy at noon
C．most people have lunch at home
51．C 52．B 53．C 54．C 55．A
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了在纽约人们出行的交通方式。
51．细节理解题。根据“In New York you can travel about the city by underground, bus, taxi and car. ”可知，你
公众号：初中英语助手可以乘地铁、公共汽车、出租车和小汽车在市内旅行，文中提到了四种交通方式。故选C。
52．细节理解题。根据“You can also travel around the city by taxi. This is the most expensive way”可知，乘出租
车是最昂贵的方法，故选B。
53．词句猜测题。根据“This is the time when the traffic is very heavy with people going to and from work.”可知，
这是交通非常繁忙的时候，所以rush hour的意思是“高峰期”，故选C。
54．细节理解题。根据“The best time to travel around the city is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.”可知，游览这座城市的最
佳时间是上午9点到下午4点，故选C。
55．推理判断题。根据“The best time to travel around the city is from 9 am to 4 pm, because it isn’t the ‘rush
hour’.”可知，早上9点到下午4点不是高峰期。故选A。

Apps are becoming more and more popular nowadays. And for good reasons, they can help you out in just
about every part of your life, whether it’s keeping fit, communicating with friends, or even learning a language.
56 Here’s what you should think about before downloading (下载) an app for language learning.
• Learn from different kinds of sources (not just apps).
Any second language learner will tell you that the beauty of learning a foreign language is the world which it
opens up to you. This is a world of different sources of information from newspapers and books to TV, radio, music
and even real people. Would you limit (限制) yourself to only one source in your Chinese world? 57
• Know where you want to be and plan your habits.
58 The good apps are created to help you find the right study lessons for you and can encourage (鼓励)
habit building as well. So before using different kinds of apps, get to know what you really want and make a
timetable.
• Make it social (社交的).
I mean social for real. 59 Find a friend in real life to practice with and share everything you have
learned with him or her. And you two can even take language classes together.
Apps are everywhere, for everything. 60 If you make good use of them, also with the help of other
sources (language schools, learning partners, books, music and so on), it’s not that difficult to learn a new thing.
A．I encourage you to use apps as often as you can.
B．Probably not, so why do so in your new language?
C．I don’t mean posting your language learning online.
D．But remember that they are just a tool (工具) which should be used in a right way.
E．Do you want to be fluent (流畅的) in weeks or are you in it just for fun?
F．However, you need to know how to use them in order to really improve your language.
56．F 57．B 58．E 59．C 60．D【导语】本文主要讲述了在下载语言学习应用程序之前，要考虑的几个问题。
56．根据“And for good reasons, they can help you out in just about every part of your life, whether it’s keeping fit,
communicating with friends, or even learning a language.”以及后句“Here’s what you should think about before
downloading (下载) an app for language learning.”可知，此处要提及正确使用应用程序的话题。F选项“然而，
你需要知道如何使用它们才能真正提高你的语言。”符合语境。故选F。
57．根据“Would you limit (限制) yourself to only one source in your Chinese world?”可知，此处要作否定回答。
B选项“可能不会，那为什么要用你的新语言呢？”符合语境。故选B。
58．根据“Know where you want to be and plan your habits.”可知，要明确自己的目标。E选项“你想在几周内
变得流利，还是只是为了好玩？”符合语境。故选E。
59．根据“I mean social for real.”可知，不是指网络上的。C选项“我不是说在网上发布你的语言学习。”符合
语境。故选C。
60．根据“Apps are everywhere, for everything.”以及以后句“If you make good use of them, also with the help of
other sources”可知，此处有转折，表示应该正确使用应用程序。D选项“但请记住，它们只是一种工具，应
该以正确的方式使用。”符合语境。故选D。

What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves? Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its
way to pick up its owner or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping. But none
of them are worried about the road ahead.
Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on
driverless cars. So far, no Google self-driving cars have gotten a traffic ticket(罚单), but some of them have been in
accidents when other cars hit them.
These cars are now still in the testing stages(阶段). But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driving
cars could be put into use very soon.
The cars are so special that they can take the place of drivers during certain situations. They are able to park
themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there is danger.
Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals(无线信号), cameras and GPS, creating a
safe self-driving car might be possible. The cause of deadly(致死的) road accidents is usually careless drivers or
bad conditions. The self-driving car may be able to prevent these. However, some people don’t like the idea.
American lawyer Whit Drake does not believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies can also be mistakes.
