12．You may have experienced the frustration（挫敗感）of being slapped with a parking fine（罰款）or finding your car held firmly in the place after leaving it parked precariously（不安全的） for a couple of minutes．But now a high-tech car sticker that's designed to be stuck to a car's windscreen，could help motorists avoid such a situation by allowing a traffic warden（管理員）to get in touch with them．
The TowStop sticker sends a text message to a driver when it is touched by a traffic warden，to allow motorists to send a reply and give them time to move their car immediately．It's designed to save drivers time and money by giving them a chance to move their car instead of having it towed（拖） away but relies on the good will of traffic wardens．Frankfurt-based IT consultant（顧問），Daniel Kalliontzis，came up with the idea and is raising funds on Indiegogo to put his?54 （£43）sticker into production．
Car owners can buy the sticker and place it inside their car's windscreen，having set it up with important information，such as their phone number．The message will ask them to move their car immediately．The driver could then type a reply for the warden using their smartphone，which will appear on the sticker's screen．They may choose to write something along the lines of back in two minutes in a bid to avoid a fine．
The smart sticker system will rely on the good will of traffic wardens and critically，a German law．The law states：An officer has to choose the most efficient and inexpensive way for the car owner to remove the vehicle．It could be cheaper for the authorities to contact the driver than to tow his car．

分析 本文屬于科普說明文，介紹了一項(xiàng)新的旨在于幫助司機(jī)避免被罰款的新技術(shù)的具體信息．
解答 4．A 推理判斷題．在本段第一句提出也許你會(huì)對(duì)被罰款而產(chǎn)生挫敗感．在第二句中提出現(xiàn)在有一種高科技的技術(shù)能夠避免這樣的情況．這樣可以讓讀者希望知道這項(xiàng)發(fā)明的具體情況，說明文中第一段的作用在于引起讀者對(duì)于這一新技術(shù)的關(guān)注．故A正確．
5．B 推理判斷題．根據(jù)第二段第二句It's designed to save drivers time and money by giving them a chance to move their car instead of having it towed（拖） away but relies on the good will of traffic wardens．說明這一技術(shù)是為了節(jié)省司機(jī)的時(shí)間和避免被罰款，也避免汽車被拖走產(chǎn)生的麻煩．故B正確．
6．D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第二段第一句The TowStop sticker sends a text message to a driver when it is touched by a traffic warden…中it is touched by…可知對(duì)方需要觸摸這一設(shè)備才可以讓這個(gè)設(shè)備向司機(jī)發(fā)送信息．故D正確．
7．A 推理判斷題．根據(jù)最后一段The law states：An officer has to choose the most efficient and inexpensive way for the car owner to remove the vehicle．可知德國(guó)的這項(xiàng)法律要求交通管理者用最經(jīng)濟(jì)的方法讓司機(jī)移車，而不僅是需要罰款．故A正確．
點(diǎn)評(píng) 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力，做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí)一定要找到文章中的原句，和題干進(jìn)行比較，再做出正確的選擇．在做推理判斷題不要以個(gè)人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí)，要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷．
