39、d. indeed, deciding what action to take in an emergency is difficult for humans , but drivers will sacrifice themselves for the greater good of others. an automated systems limited understanding of the world means it will almost never evaluate(評估）a situation in the same way as a human would do. and

41、 often an increase in the rate of disasters.therefore comparisons between humans and automated vehicles have to be performed carefully. to fairly evaluate how well driverless cars fulfill their promise of improved safety, its important to ensure the data presented actually provide a true comparison.

43、aster.d.self-driving cars know the world better.【答案】b【解析】細節理解題。根據第二段內容可知，由人類駕駛的汽車的事故數據來自各種路況和駕駛情況，而無人駕駛汽車的事故數據是在公路上和良好的天氣情況下收集而來的，所以收集數據方式的不同導致了兩者之間的不公平比較。故選b項。13 . what does the underlined word perils in paragraph 3 most probably mean?a.dangers. b.self-driving cars.c.pedestrians. d.human-driven car

44、s.【答案】a【解析】詞義猜測題。根據畫線詞后一句中的rather than think ahead to possible events literally down the road 可知，無人駕駛汽車沒有前瞻性去避免潛在的危險。故畫線詞應表示“危險”。故選a項。pedestrian意為“行人。14.in which aspect can self-driving cars beat human drivers?a. driving steadily. b. climbing steep slopes.c.evaluating the cost of loss. d.making comp

45、lex decisions.【答案】a【解析】細節理解題。根據第三段第一句“it is true that self-driving cars dont get tired, angry, frustrated or drunk.可知，無人駕駛汽車不會有疲憊、生氣、沮喪或醉酒的狀況，因此在駕駛的穩定性上優于由人類駕駛的汽車。故選a項。15. why does the author write this text?a.to support human-driven cars.b.to show his doubts about self-driving cars.c. to call for e

46、xact evaluation of self-driving cars.d.to stress the importance of reducing car accidents.【答案】c【解析】推理判斷題。根據最后一段中的“to fairly evaluate how well driverless cars fulfill their promise of improved safety, its important to ensure the data presented actually provide a true comparison.可知，為了公平地評估無人駕駛汽車在多大程度上

47、實現了其提高安全性的承諾，確保呈現的數據能夠提供真實的比較是非常重要的。故可推斷出，作者寫此文的目的是呼吁人們對無人駕駛汽車進行準確的評價。故選c項。第二節 (共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分) 根據短文內容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。building trust in a relationship againimagine a child standing on a diving board four feet high and asking himself the question: should i jump? this is what moti

51、 measurable. you must keep these points in mind while setting your goals.your personal circumstances are equally important. for example, you may want to be a pilot but cant become one because your eyesight is not good enough. 20 you should reassess your goals, and motivate yourself to set a fresh go

53、, this should not discourage you.d. so why should we try to set specific goals?e. they can change according to circumstances.f. motivation is what you need most to do a good job.g. without motivation, you can neither set a goal nor reach it.16.【答案】.g【解析】過渡句。句意：若沒有動機，你既不能設定目標，也不能達成目標。由設空處上句話motivatio

54、n and goal setting are the two sides of the same coin.(動機和目標的設定是一件事情的兩個方面。）可知，動機是很重要的。根據設空處下句like the child on the diving board,you will stay un-decided.可知，中間需要加一個表示轉折的句子：若沒有動機。故選g。17.【答案】.b 【解析】主旨句。句意：那么，你應該如何激勵自己呢？該題中，設空處位于文章第二段開頭，可能會是該段的主旨句。設空處后面的how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal

55、也是引出該段話題或是對主旨句的進一步說明。另根據句子結構一致的原則，可找到與此問句結構一致的選項b:so how should you motivate yourself?故選b18.【答案】.a 【解析】過渡句。句意：這可能會影響你的工作。根據設空處前面的句子there are times when your heart is not in your work.(有時你的心會不在你的工作上。）可知，接下來會說這樣做的后果（影響你的工作）。設空處后面介紹正確的做法。故選a。19.【答案】.e【解析】細節句。句意：它們可以根據情況來改變。設空處前面的句子提到 remember that goal

56、s are flexible.(要記得目標是靈活的。）,接下來可能會接著解釋它們會改變。選項e中的they與上句話中的goals指代一致。故選e。20.【答案】.c【解析】過渡句。句意：然而，這不應該使你泄氣。由設空處上句話中的you may want to be a pilot but cant become one because your eyesight is not good enough(你可能想成為一名飛行員，但因為你的視力不夠好而不能成為一名飛行員）可知，接下來會告訴我們解決這個問題的辦法。根據設空處下句話中的you should reassess your goals(你應該重新評估你的目標）可知，選c項。第三部分 語言知識運用（共兩節，滿分45分）第一節 完形填空(共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分)閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的a、b、c和d四個選項中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。two weeks earlier, my son, ben, had got in touch. hed moved to england with his mum when he was three and it had been 13 years since id- 21 seen him. s
