W: Mark,these days we all know that time is money. So why is your company working on a new form of transport which will go from London to New York in 37 hours,when we can already get there in seven?
M: Well,it’s true that people traditionally want to get to their destination as quickly as possible,but I think everyone would agree that there is nothing pleasant about flying in a small, crowded passenger jet. That’s why I’ve developed the Aircruise concept. It aims to carry people to their destination in comfort and style.
W: So what is an Aircruise? Is it a type of plane?
M: No,it’s not. (19) It is proposed that the Aircruise will be a huge kite-shaped airship. (20) It will fly at 12,000 feet, but it would be able to fly at just a few hundred feet above the ground if there was something interesting to see on the ground.
W: It sounds like a sort of luxurious hot air balloon.
M: Well, the plan is that it will be powered, not by hot air, but another type of air, hydrogen. With hydrogen as the fuel , you’d be able to reach speed of around ninety miles per hour. It would be pollution-free, and what’s more, it’d be completely silent!
W: Weren’t they very dangerous?
M: (21) They were rather. But technology has moved on a good deal,and scientists are looking for ways that we can create transport options that are more sustainable and kinder to the environment.
W: So,is it actually going into production?
M: Not yet, (22) but it is certainly gaining a lot of attention.
19. According to the conversation, what is an Aircruise?
20. What does the man say about an Aircruise?
21. How dangerous does the man think an Aircruise is?
22. How does the man feel about the future of this Aircruise concept?
选项
A、It is not dangerous at all due to advanced technology.
B、It is not as dangerous as before thanks to technology development.
C、It is very dangerous since technology develops slowly.
D、It is still rather dangerous because of incapability of scientists.
答案
B
解析
女士询问Aircruise是不是很危险,男士回答说这在过去是非常危险的,但科技在发展,科学家们也正在积极研究更加可持续发展、更环保的交通方式。由此可见,他的言下之意是现在已不像以前那么危险。故答案为B)。
