Question

Have you ever noticed how busy our roads are becoming? Every year more and more cars are using them. Already in such countries as America, almost every family has a car. Many accidents happen because cars are now made to travel very fast. Also, people waste time and money every day as long lines of cars move slowly into towns and cities. In most big towns it is very hard to find parking spaces.

Wide, smooth (平的), straight (直的) roads must be built now in place of the old and narrow roads. These roads must not pass through towns and cities. They must not be crossed by other roads.

Today such roads are being built（在建造中） in many countries in the world. These roads have at least two lanes（車道）, one for slow-moving traffic and the other for fast-moving traffic.

These roads do not pass through town and cities; horses and bikes are not allowed on them. Accidents do not usually happen. Cars can travel hundreds of miles without having to stop.

But these modem roads often cannot be built in towns and cities. Before a road in a town can be made wider, many buildings have to be pulled down.

Some people feel that more car-parks should be built outside a city, then the drivers should leave their cars and catch a bus or take a taxi to their offices.

【解析】

試題分析：這篇文章主要講述為了解決現(xiàn)在舊道路的擁擠問題，新的道路將會建設，并闡述了新道路的一些特點。新的道路會變得更平直；至少有兩個車道；道路不穿過城鎮(zhèn)，車速會更快；但在修建時也會遇到問題，例如不能在城鎮(zhèn)修建，人們只能將車停在城外，再打的到辦公點。

1.判斷推理題。根據(jù)文中描述得知Many accidents happen because cars are now made to travel very fast.很多事故的發(fā)生是因為車子開得太快；后文中還提到新的道路的修建in place of the old and narrow roads. 取代舊而窄的道路，They must not be crossed by other roads.它們不與其他道路交叉；從而判斷作者認為這些也是導致交通事故的原因，故選D。

2.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第三段描述These roads have at least two lanes（車道）這些道路至少需要兩條車道，故選A。

3.判斷推理題。根據(jù)文中第一段描述得知，現(xiàn)在的道路非常擁堵，每天有大量的車子在使用，造成擁堵和停車困難等問題。所以此題選D，新道路必須修建是因為舊的道路太擁擠了。

4.細節(jié)理解題。But these modem roads often cannot be built in towns and cities. Before a road in a town can be made wider, many buildings have to be pulled down.但是這些現(xiàn)代的道路經(jīng)常不能在城鎮(zhèn)和城市里建設，因為在道路擴寬前，很多建筑要被推到。故選D。

5.主旨大意題。這篇文章主要講述為了緩解現(xiàn)在舊道路的擁擠問題，新的道路將會建設，并闡述了新道路的一些特點，故選B，未來的道路。

考點：社會現(xiàn)象類短文閱讀。
