语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文,介绍了华盛顿贝尔维尤的法克托利亚大道采用了可以根据交通状况实时调整信号灯时间的自适应信号灯,大大缓解了交通压力。
1.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“that”inParagraph2referto?
A.Increasedlengthofgreenlights.
B.Shortenedtrafficsignalcycle.
C.Flexibletimingoftrafficsignals.
D.Smoothtrafficflowontheroad.
答案 C
解析 代词指代题。
代词that多指代上文内容。
根据文章第一段最后一句,即本段主题句“Justlikethetrafficitself,thetimingofthesignalschanges.”可知,that指代信号灯时间随交通状况而变化这一情况,也就是C项“交通信号灯时间的灵活控制”。
2.WhatdoesKevinBalkesayaboutadaptivesignals?
A.Theyworkbetteronbroadroads.
B.Theyshouldbeusedinothercities.
C.Theyhavegreatlyreducedtrafficontheroad.

答案 D
解析 推理判断题。
根据第四段中的“adaptivesignalsarenotacure-allforjammedroadways”以及“othersaresojammedthatonlyasharpreductioninthenumberofcarsontheroadwillmakeameaningfuldifference”可知,自适应信号灯不是解决交通拥堵问题的万灵药,在一些拥挤不堪的城市,只有大幅减少道路上的汽车数量才会产生有意义的影响。
由此可推知,凯文·
巴尔克认为自适应信号灯在交通拥堵严重的城市没那么有用。
3.WhatcanwelearnfromBellevue’ssuccess?
A.Itisrewardingtotrynewthings.
B.Theoldmethodsstillworktoday.

由此可推知从贝尔维尤的成功中我们可以学到:
尝试新事物是值得的。
