What is the main duty of the executive to be recruited? [br]
The Wall Street Journal reported recently that Uber put up a job posting for an executive position at UberExpress, the drone delivery operation within its UberEats food delivery unit, to help get the drones up and running sometime in 2019, with commercial drone delivery of food planned in multiple locations by 2021.
The need for an executive makes sense since Uber is currently a partner with the City of San Diego, which is one of 10 localities that are participating in a federal pilot program to integrate drones into local airspace. Furthermore, the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018 told the FAA to update the existing regulations, originally designed for manned aircraft, to address under 55-pound drone delivery. Regardless of these two beneficial events, there are at least two major hurdles that UberExpress will face to establish a commercial food drone delivery business: the law and the economics.
Uber is going to face issues with the federal government as well as the states that the commercial drone delivery services will be offered in. On top of that, some counties, cities, and towns have created laws that could affect the operations as well. For one given flight, you could have federal, state, county, and city laws applying to the flight, some of which could even be contradicting each other!
From the economic viewpoint, there are two important caveats about using drones for delivery. To keep in mind is that law and safety drive the economics of the aviation industry and operational possibility does not equal operational profitability.
Although painstaking efforts may be required to clear all these obstacles, I am very much willing to see drone delivery prevailing in the country. And why stop with food? I think UberExpress has the opportunity to expand and provide fast delivery of other low-weight items where availability is an issue, such as medicines or blood to patients with time-sensitive problems.
选项
A、Uber will not be able to manage the law issue for drone delivery.
B、The FAA may formulate rules for drones in areas including San Diego.
C、UberExpress has only two problems to solve for drone delivery services.
D、Regulations set before are likely to be directly applied to drones.
答案
B
解析
语义的理解与推断。原文指出了无人机送餐要面对的法律问题,但没有表示这些问题无法解决,并且从“Although painstaking efforts may be required to clear all these obstacles, I…”判断,本文认为这些问题是可以解决的,因此选项A错误。根据“there are at least two major hurdles”,选项C中“has only two problems”推断错误。根据“…told the FAA to update the existing regulations, originally designed for manned aircraft”可知,现行的条款并不会直接用于管理无人机,选项D错误,选项B正确。因此,该题答案为选项B。
