About five years ago, an American electrical engineer named Scott Brusaw and his wife Julie came up with the idea of putting solar panels (控制板) on the ground rather than the roof. Then they began to develop the Solar Roadway. The Solar Roadway is an intelligent road that provides clean renewable energy using power from the sun while providing safer driving conditions, along with power and data delivery. They predict that the Solar Roadway will pay for itself through the generation of electricity along with other forms of income and that the same money that is being used to build and resurface current roads can be used to build the Solar Roadways.
Each Solar Road Panel measures roughly 4 meters by 4 meters and contains a microprocessor (微處理器) that monitors and controls the panel, while communicating with neighboring panels and the vehicles traveling overhead. The inventors suggest that this provides a communications device every 4 meters on every road which could be used for example to warn drivers of cars which are moving across a centre line and various other speed control problems. The top of the Solar Road panels is made of super-strong glass that would offer vehicles the tractions (抓地力) they need.
According to the inventors, the Solar Roadway creates and carries clean renewable electricity and therefore electric vehicles can be recharged at any conveniently located rest stop, or at any business that has paved Solar Road Panels in their parking lots.
The inventors say their Solar Roadway has many functions and advantages from main roads to driveways, parking lots, bike paths, sidewalks and runways. The Federal Highway Administration has given Brusaw $100,000 to develop the invention and Brusaw hopes to build a smart-road parking lot in the coming spring .
1.In the inventors’ opinion, the Solar Roadway ___________________________ .
A. is too expensive to build at present
B. costs no more money than current roads
C. can provide as many data as present computers
D. will bring them a large sum of money
2.The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refers to .
A. the panels B. the inventors
C. the researchers D. the vehicles
3.It can be inferred from the text that ____________________________.
A. the Solar Roadway has already been put into use
B. $100,000 is only enough to build a smart-road parking lot
C. the Solar Roadway is not available for gas-powered cars
D. future electric vehicles can be charged anytime and anywhere
4.What can be the best title for the text?
A. Solar-powered smart road of the future
B. The great changes on the roadway
C. The influence the Solar Roadway has on people
D. The Solar Road—a much faster road

C
If asked if space exploration should continue,most Americans would give an immediate response either in favor of continuing or in favor of ending space exploration.A common response would be that space exploration is a waste of money.An average American,uneducated on the subject,might believe that the government is wasting billions of dollars on the research that has no merit.Someone strange to the subject might say that a space shuttle goes up once in a while and that is about all that happens.Research is ongoing and continues when there are no shuttles being launched.This also costs the government money.Does the extreme cost of space exploration make sense?
One argument is that the government is wasting money on the research not being used on Earth.Actually,the money goes to workers and scientists that support National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) missions (任務),and goes to major companies that play important roles in major sectors of the US economy.Boeing is a partner of NASA for aircraft,the same company that makes commercial aircraft for the airline industry.
Another benefit to continuing space exploration is the many spinoff (衍生的) technologies it provides.The artificial heart resulted from experiments on the space shuttle.The handheld Jaws of Life used to save victims from car accidents originated from the system used to separate the space shuttle from its booster rockets.Insulation in homes that keeps them warm and energy efficient is based on the technology used to insulate the space shuttle.
There are direct benefits to the economy provided by NASA missions as well as spinoff technologies.These advances are found in food,building materials,medical procedures and the vehicles we drive.While it can be proven that billions of dollars that could be used elsewhere is being spent on space exploration,the benefits it provides outweigh the terrible aspects.As a matter of fact,the money spent helps to improve the quality of our lives.
1.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?
A.By offering analyses.
B.By making comparisons.
C.By giving some examples.
D.By presenting research findings.
2.The function of Jaws of Life is to _____.
A.save people from traffic accidents
B.do experiments on the space shuttle
C.keep houses warm and energy efficient
D.separate the space shuttle from its booster rockets
3.In the author’s opinion,space exploration _____.
A.has changed our life completely
B.costs too much of our time
C.benefits us in many ways
D.has nothing to do with us
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Benefits of space exploration
B.Is space exploration worth the cost?
C.How to make space exploration affordable
D.Missions of the NASA space shuttle program
