The dream of personalised flight is still vivid in the minds of many inventors, some developing cycle-powered craft, others【C1】______money into jetpacks (喷气飞行背包). However, the flying car has always remained the【C2】______symbol of personal transport freedom.
Several companies around the world have produced【C3】______that can drive on roads and fly. Airbus has a futuristic modular (组件式的) concept involving a passenger capsule that can be【C4】______from the road-going chassis (底盘) and picked up by a helicopter-type machine.
But all these concepts are massively expensive, require safety certification standards for road and air, need【C5】______controls, involve complex folding wings and propellers, and have to be flown from air-strips. So they are likely to remain rich people’s playthings rather than practical transport solutions for the masses.
"A car that takes off from some London street and lands in another【C6】______street is unlikely to happen," says Prof. Gray, a leading aeronautical engineer. "Sky taxis are much more likely. " But that won’t stop inventors from dreaming up new ways to fly and trying to persuade investors to back their sometimes【C7】______schemes.
Civilian aviation is being disrupted, not by the age-old desires for speed, romanticism and【C8】______, but by the pressing need to respond to a changing climate. New electric engines coupled with artificial intelligence and【C9】______systems will contribute to a more efficient, integrated transport system that is less polluting and less noisy. That may sound simple, but as Prof. Gray says, "When I travel somewhere I like this notion that when I finish my journey I feel better than when I started it. That’s completely at【C10】______with how I feel today. " Now that would be progress.
A) autonomous I) pouring
B) detached J) prototypes
C) dual K) random
D) glamour L) repressing
E) imminent M) segmented
F) odds N) spectrum
G) opposites O) ultimate
H) outrageous [br] 【C1】
选项
答案
I
解析
动词辨析题。空格前面出现了代词others,后面出现了名词money,本应填动词作谓语,但是本句已经出现了系动词is,根据谓语单一原则,空格处不能再填谓语。这里的others和前面的some都是代词作主语,为并列结构,some后面用developing作非谓语,故空格处也应填动词的-ing形式作非谓语。空格后面出现了into,故填入I)pouring,意为“把……投入到……”。本句中的“some…,others…”均为非谓语结构作状语,对前面的句子进行解释说明。L)repressing意为“压抑,抑制”,放在此处意思不通,故排除。
