22、Self-driving cars are believed to be the future of driving. Companies including Toyota, Uber and Google are all competing to be the first to bring them to market.

However, car makers need to solve one problem first: How driverless cars communicate with passers-by, bikers and other drivers. Most drivers today use gestures to show their purposes. They wave a car into a lane(车道), or nod at passers-by and cyclists, to let them cross the street. But self-driving cars don’t have this ability. What can they do? US carmaker Ford and its partner Virginia Tech think they have the answer, reported Business Insider. The team is testing a method that uses light signals to show what self-driving cars are doing. For example, if a driverless car is yielding, it could flash two white lights side to side. A solid white light tells there are no humans in the car. A slow blinking light shows the car is coming to a stop. A rapidly flashing light tells passers-by that the car is about to speed up. To test the method on real roads, the team designed a special suit that looks exactly like a car seat. When a driver wears it, it appears to people that the car is really driverless. The team then successfully got more than 1,500 hours of data after about 2,900 kilometres of “self-driving” through busy cities. The data recorded how people interacted with a driverless vehicle. Ford says they plan to share the data with 11 other companies, reported dogonews. com. The company wants to work with other carmakers to design a signaling system that would be understood by all.

【1】What are considered to be the future of driving?

A．Flying cars.

B．Driverless cars.

C．Energy-saving cars.

D．Electric cars.

【2】What’s the problem of driverless cars?

A．Communicating with people.

B．Not having enough seatbelts.

C．Driving into a lane.

D．Crossing a street.

【3】What does the underlined word “yielding” refer to?

A．加速

B．减速

C．让路

D．超车

【4】According to Ford and Virginia Tech, how might the problem be solved?

A．Flashing light signals.

B．Sending information to smartphones.

C．Designing special suits for drivers.

D．Only driving in small cities.

【5】Which of the following shows the car will speed up?

A．A solid white light.

B．A slow blinking light.

C．A fast flashing light.

D．No lights.

23、   From deserts and beaches to playgrounds, sand is a common sight. But you might not know that sand is also a useful resources（资源）.

Sand is the second most –used resource in the world after water, the BBC reported. However, the UN said that sand is not limitless and that we might be running out of it.

Sand is made up of very small pieces of rock, soil and minerals（矿物质）. It can take tens of thousands of years to form（形成）. But now we are using sand more quickly than it is being formed. According to the BBC, we use about 15 million tons of sand every year to build houses, roads and other things. That’s enough to build a 20-meter-high by 20-meter-wide wall around the equator（赤道）every year.

People also put sand in the sea to make new islands. Singapore, for example, is now 20 percent bigger than it was in 1965. Palm islands are three large man-made islands in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. They took 94 million cubic meters of sand to build.

If people keep using this much sand, it will run out in many places. For example, Vietnam may run out of construction（建造）sand by 2020, Live Science noted.

Since people need so much sand, they are trying to mine（开采）more of it. But this is bad for the environment. Mining sand may cause beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea. Also, this may affect the habitats（栖息地）of many plants and animals.

【1】Sand is ____________ most used resource in the world.

A.the first B.the second C.the twentieth D.the ninety-fourth

A.America B.Vietnam C.United Arab Emirates D.Singapore

【3】Mining sand can cause ____________.

C.environment to be better D.more floods to happen

【4】Why do people mine much construction sand? Because ____________.

A.they want to build buildings B.they can find more of them

C.sand is limitless D.sand can form quickly

【5】The writer of the passage mainly tells us _____________.

A.people use sand to make islands B.many places will disappear

C.the world is running out of sand D.there is much sand around the world
