18、on, there is a passage with several blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. You may not use any of t
19、he words in the bank more than once. A) dissolving B) nightbird C) boiled D) bulb E) thatch F) nightjar G) jungle H) shed I) spattered J) solitary K) coiled up L) stir M) sparkle N) solid O) absolving 21. _ F 22. _ G 23. _ D 24. _ H 25. _ I 26. _ J 27. _ K 28. _ L 29. _ E 30. _ There are several pas
20、sages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice. Passage One Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. You slip the key into the ignition an
21、d crank the engine to life. But before you put the car into gear, you tap a key on the keyboard mounted by the steering wheel, and your newest email flashes up on the windscreen. Can you imagine that? This seductive satyr is what you get when you cross a car and a computer. Dubbed the “network vehic
22、le”, or net-mobile, it may soon come to a driveway near you (probably the one belonging to your rich neighbour). In a net-mobile, a motorist could tap into a regional road system but also to map out a route around rush-hour traffic snags. Drivers and passengers will be able to send and receive e-mai
23、l, track the latest sports scores or stock quotes, surf the Web, and even play video games. Or so, at least, say a number of computer-industry firms such as Microsoft, Sun, IBM and Netscape. The modern car is already an electronic showcase on wheels. On-board microcomputers improve fuel economy and
24、reduce emissions. They operate anti-lock brake systems, and on some cars even regulate the firmness of the shock absorbers. But much of the technology needed to add extra is available now. A prototype network vehicle, produced by a consortium of Netscape, Sun, IBM and Delco (an automotive electronic
25、s firm based in Michigan), was introduced at the recent annual computer industry show in Las Vegas. It not only offered such desktop-computer-like services as e-mail, but also allowed a driver to use them without looking away from the road. It was operated by voice commands and projected its data on
26、 to the windscreen, using the same sort of head-up display system found in modern fighter jets. Members of the consortium think a real-world network vehicle could be in production in as little as four years. Car-makers have already begun rolling out some of the features found on these prototype net
27、mobiles. If the driver of a General Motors car equipped with its On-Star system locks his key in the car, for example, an emergency centre can transmit a digital signal to unlock the doors. On-star also calls automatically for help if an accident triggers the airbags. Toyota and General Motors are a
28、mong a growing list of firms offering such in-car navigation systems. And in Europe, BMW and Mercedes-Benz recently introduced navigation hardware that can not only plot out a route, but also alert a driver to traffic jams. 31. The future car can be defined as the machine which_. A) sends and receives e-mails, and surfs the Web B) taps into a regional road system to get directions C) combines car functions and computer functions D) tracks the latest sports s
