问题 共用题干Car Thieves Could Be Stopped Remotely
Speeding off in a stolen car,the thief thinks he has got a great catch.But he is in a nasty surprise .The car is fitted with a remote immobilizer,and a radio signal from a control center miles away will ensure that once the thief switches the engine______(51),he will not be able to start it again.
For now,such devices______(52)only available for fleets of trucks and specialist vehi- dles used on construction sites. But remote immobilization technology could soon start to trickle down to ordinary cars,and ______(53)be available to ordinary cars in the UK______(54)two months.
The idea goes like this.A control box fitted to the car incorporates______(55)miniature cellphone, a microprocessor and memory, and a GPS satellite positioning receiver.______(56)the car is stolen,a coded cellphone signal will tell the unit to block the vehicle's engine management system and prevent the engine______(57)restarted.
There are even plans for immobilizers______(58)shut down vehicles on the move, though there are fears over the safety implications of such a system.
In the UK,an array of technical fixes is already making______(59)harder for car thieves."The pattern of vehicles crime has changed,"says Martyn Randall of Thatcham,a secur- ity research organization based in Berkshire that is funded in part______(60)the motor insur-ance industry.
He says it would only take him a few minutes to______(61)a novice how to steal a car, using a bare minimum of tools.But only if the car is more than 10 years old.
Modern cars are a far tougher proposition,as their engine management computer will not______(62)them to start unless they receive a unique ID code beamed out by the ignition key .In the UK,technologies like this______(63)achieve a 3 1 percent drop in vehicle-related crime since 1997.
But determined criminals are still managing to find other ways to steal cars. Often by getting hold of the owner's keys in a burglary. In 2000,12 percent of vehicles stolen in the UK were taken by using the owner's keys,which doubles the previous year's figure.
Remote-controlled immobilization system would______(64)a major new obstacle in the criminal's way by making such thefts pointless.A group that includes Thatcham,the police,insur-ance companies and security technology firms have developed standards for a system that could go on the market sooner than the______(65)expects.52._________A:. isB: wasC: wereD: are
选项 52._________
A:. is
B: was
C: were
D: are
答案 D
解析 该段主要是说，如果车被盗，只要发出无线电信号，remote immobilizer就能使被盗车一旦停下就无法再启动。因此，应选择A，如选择B , switches the engine on（发动引擎）句子意思便不符合文章内容。C和D与switch不搭配。


devices是复数形式，描述的也是目前的事情，所以应使用be的现在时复数形式are。


该句说，这种遥控技术很快就会开始一点一点地用于普通汽车。然后作者推断，在两个月后这种技术就能用于英国的汽车。A是错误选项，因为该句前面用了could表示委婉的推断，在此不会用can;B和C与意思不符；should也是表示推断。


从搭配上来看，可以选择B和C，但是从意思上来看，必须选择C。 for two months:已经有两个月了；in two months：两个月后。不能选择A，因为不符合英语表达习惯。又如：They will graduate in one year．他们一年后毕业。


这里应该使用不定冠词，而且miniature cellphone后面的并列定语都使用不定冠词。不能选择an，因为它后面的名词由辅音开头。


从语法结构来看，这里应选择引导状语从句的连词，其他选项都会造成结构错误。而且，If正符合句子的意思。


prevent sth. ( from) doing是固定用法，restart这里要用被动语态being restarted，所以应选择B。


从句子的结构来看，这里需要一个关系代词引导定语从句。关系代词的先行词immobilizers是物不是人，所以只能用that，不能用who。


在四个选项中，B、C和D显然不符合文章的意思。这里作者要表达的意思是“使……日子难过”，所以应选择A。


be funded是被动语态，空格后面是名词短语，从句子的意思来判断，这个名词短语是动作fund的执行者，是谓语动词动作逻辑上的主语，所以必须使用by来引导这个名词短语。


这个句子结构是to take sb. time to do sth.。从意思上判断，句子的意思应该是“他说只要花几分钟就能教会一个新手如何偷盗汽车”。所以，D是答案。use, inform和ask都不能与how to结构搭配。


them后跟着to,所以首先排除A和C ( let sb. do sth./make sb. do sth. )。句子的意思不允许选D。...will not allow them to start...意为“……不允许它们启动”。


句子后面的时间状语由since引导，所以句子应该使用现在完成时。


从obstacle in the criminal's way这个名词短语看出，应选择D，构成put obstacle in sb. 's way（给某人设置障碍）这种固定用法。


前面有go on the market，预期的人应该是customer。当然，specialist , doctor或lawyei 也可以预期，但总不及customer那么自然。
