The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer (蜂鸣器) that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway.
有pessimistic experts认为将来汽车会被废止(悲观观点),而other authorities则认为将会继续保持交通主导工具地位不变(过于乐观)。而二段开头作者认为未来30年汽车将会有巨大改变这一观点才是真正主题所在(客观中含有乐观,变化地看待事物)。所以在做这篇文章主题题的变体态度题时,只要把第二段开头作者的态度读出来,答案也就很好选了。说白了,对于对抗型观点,读者只需了解作者的观点就行。
25. What is the authors attitude toward the future of autos?
A) Enthusiastic. B) Pessimistic. C) Optimistic. D) Cautious.
四、还有这么一些文章,主题并不是在文章开头几段出现而是在文章末尾,这种文章比较难。不过还是可以通过重点阅读文章末尾加以解决,姑且称其为曲径通幽型文章。
