【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,讲述一种个人飞行工具很快就会应用于现实,然而安全性和强度一直是个大问题,文中介绍了两家研发飞行器的公司的最新的产品,新产品把安全放在首位,并对产品进行了改进。
(1)考查细节理解。
根据第二段中的“theHoverbikeisabletogetinandoutofsmallspacesveryquickly.Itcanbemovedacrosscontinentsveryquicklybecauseitcanbefoldedandpacked.”可知,Hoverbike能够很快地进出小空间。
它可快速地在大陆上移动,因为它可以折叠和包装。
可知,选D。
(2)考查推理判断。
根据第六段PeterCoker说Jetpack从一开始就围绕安全进行的,安全可靠性是最重要的因素。
我们在车的现行结构中植入了安全性,非常类似于FormulaOne赛车。
,故选A。
(3)考查词义猜测。
根据最后一段中的“Mr.Cokersaysitalsohasaparachute(降落伞)thatcanbeusedshouldtherebeanemergency."Itstartstoworkatverylowaltitude….,”Coker先生说Jetpack上也有降落伞,可以在紧急情况下使用。
“在海拔非常低的情况下开始用它…”。
可知,Jetpack上的降落伞(它)是在海拔低时才用。
由此可知it指的是parachute(降落伞)。
故选D。
(4)考查主旨大意。
根据第一段可知,许多人一直梦想能像骑自行车一样简单的飞来飞去,科技的发展让这个梦想很快实现。
然而飞行自行车的安全性和强度一直是个大问题。
接着下面叙述了两家研发飞行器的公司的最新的产品,新产品把安全放在首位。
故选B。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,推理判断和主旨大意三个题型的考查,是一篇科研类阅读,要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,概括和归纳,从而选出正确答案。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,毕克笔的笔帽上有一个小孔是为了防止那些粗心的使用者不小心吞下而窒息死亡。
这真是粗心使用者的生命通道。
(1)考查推理判断。
毕克笔的笔帽上留一个小孔的原因,且这个问题会被偶尔问到,就像如果你用核武器攻击黄石公园会发生什么事这个问题一样,作者是在举例证明他的观点,故选B。
(2)考查词义猜测。
此处意为当使用者不慎把笔帽吞下时,笔帽上的小孔就是为了阻止笔帽完全阻塞气管而引起窒息,故选A。
(3)考查细节理解。
根据第三段中的"Infact,in2018,7,250kilometers(4,505miles)ofwritingtestsonsuchpenswerecarriedoutonballpointpens,gelpens(中性笔),androllerstomakesuretheyworkedtothehigheststandard."可知,举行书写测试的目的是为了确保笔能够达到最高的标准,故选B。
(4)考查推理判断。
根据第一段中的"Somethingsshouldjustbecommonknowledgebynow.TheEarthisn'tflat.Nope,yourhairandnailsdon'tgrowafteryoudie."和第三段中的"That'sratherlovelyofthem.Inappreciationoftheirwanttonotkillofftheirmoreclumsycustomers"等作者的行文措辞可知,作者笔调轻松幽默,故选C。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查,是一篇科普类阅读,考生需要准确捕捉细节信息,并根据上下文进行逻辑推理,从而选出正确答案。
