第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Lots of people buy books and products from Amazon, an online ller. They order and pay over the Internet and the books are shipped through the mail or a delivery rvice like FedEx.
One day, people could get their Amazon deliveries from an “unmanned aerial vehicle” — a tiny flying vehicle that looks like a toy helicopter. And instead of waiting days to get the parcel, it could be at the buyers home in half an hour or less. The company is workin白殿治疗
g on a fleet of tiny vehicles they call “Prime Air”. The vehicles are also known as “octocopters”. On their website, Amazon says, “one day, Prime Air vehicles will be as normal as eing mail trucks on the road today.”
The U.S.s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is working on safety regulations for unmanned flying vehicles like the Prime Air copters(飞机). Tho regulations will make sure the copters are able to fly safely where they need to go. Once the FAA has put its rules in place, which could be as early as 2015, Amazon will be ready with its fleet of tiny flyers. The process could take as many as five years.
The new delivery rvice would likely be available only in the United States at first. The copters the company is testing now can handle packages up 马蓝
to five pounds (2.3 kg) and they have a range of 10 miles (16 kilometres).
Other companies are also looking at using unmanned flying vehicles to deliver their products. For instance, Dominos Pizza in the UK relead a video showing a “DomiCopter,” delivering a pizza. That video may ha报纸用英语怎么读
ve been a publicity stunt(噱头). In any ca, just like Prime Airs octocopters, the DomiCopters dont have clearance to take off just yet.
