Question

阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In many parts of the world, cars play an important role in daily life and many societies would not exist without them.   1 But this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously, not only by government but also by car manufacturers(制造商).
The Human Science and Advanced Technology Institute at Loughborough in the UK is part of an international research program.   2 That will mean much saving, no accidents and better use of roads. The super-intelligent car of the 21st century will drive itself,   3 . Instead，we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing．
According to Dr．David Davis，who leads the research team，these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture，which had blocked up our cities，polluted our air, and caused more deaths than both world wars put together．
Davis says，cars will be fitted with some intelligent devices(装置) to regulate(调节) the distance between one car and another.   4 Computers are much safer drivers than people，so cars in a road train will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people.
By 2010，Dr．David Davis believes，car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road，whatever the weather conditions，by projecting an image（影像）of the road ahead on to the car’s windscreen．  5 Cars will be connected by an electronic bar to the car in front to form “road-trains”. “The front vehicle in such a train burns the normal amount of fuel.” says Davis. “ But all the others in the train would burn about ten percent of the normal amount，and so produce about ten percent of the pollution.”

A．The team there believes that by 2030 all cars will be computerized.

B．They believe that cars will become more important in 20 years.

C．And it will not be owned by one individual.

D．And by 2030, cars will travel in line, linked to each other electronically.

E．So the idea that in 20 years’ time, no one will own cars may be hard to believe.
F．Every driver will use less fuel in the car he owns.
G．The car will automatically speed up, or slow down, to match the speed of the car in front.

【小题1】E
【小题2】A
【小题3】C
【小题4】G
【小题5】D

解析试题分析：本文介绍了未来的汽车发展的趋势
【小题1】E 根据后句this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously说明所填是一个推测的说法，故E项符合上下文。
【小题2】A 根据后句That will mean much saving, no accidents and better use of roads.说明汽车的技术方面有很很大的革新，故A项符合上下文。孩子汽车技术计算机化了。
【小题3】C 根据下一句we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing．说明我们可以经常换车，那么车不会属于我们个人了。故C正确。
【小题4】G 根据上句cars will be fitted with some intelligent devices(装置) to regulate(调节) the distance说明这些装置可以自动调节距离等，也就是实现了自动驾驶，故G项正确。
【小题5】D 根据下一句Cars will be connected by an electronic bar to the car in front to form “road-trains”说明汽车会受到电子元件的联系实现了电子化的形式。故D项符合上下文。
