三、閱讀理解

• 6．    Each one of us shares this planet with seven billion other individuals.And we all need transportation.The majority of cars，motorcycles，boats and planes cause pollution.They are also noisy.This is a serious problem in many cities.So inventors are coming up with innovative ideas to try to reduce the pollution and noise.
      By Land
      In many cities around the world，motorcycles are becoming increasingly popular.Currently，Vietnam has around 33 million motorcycles.China has almost 120 million.The convenience of these motorcycles comes at a cost .Air pollution is a growing problem.In large cities，people often complain it is difficult to breathe.They also complain about the noise.
      To solve these problems，a U.S.company designed an environmentally friendly motorcycle.It uses electricity as fuel.You can drive it for 40 miles（64 kilometers） before recharging the battery.It is also quiet and fast-60 miles （96 kilometers） per hour.This makes it a good choice for getting around a city.
      By Water
      The Italian city of Venice is a city with only a few roads.There are no cars in the city center.Instead of cars，water taxis and buses carry people along the city's canals.The engines of these boats are simple and cheap.However，they cause pollution，particularly to the water.This causes damage to the city's buildings.
      English mechanics Dick Strawbridge and Jem Stans designed a solar-powered water taxi.The solar panels charge three electric batteries.These，in turn，provide power to the engine.The water taxi can carry six passengers.It can run for a day.In the future，solar taxis could be an alternative to Venice's current taxis.
      By Air
      Designing an environmentally friendly airplane is a real challenge.Planes use an enormous amount of jet fuel.This means they cause significant air pollution，and they are very noisy.Some major airplane manufacturers have started to address the problems.They are using cleaner fuels，for example.However，Swiss engineers have gone one step further.They developed a solar airplane——the Solar Impulse.Solar panels cover its wings.These panels provide power to four electric motors and batteries.The batteries allow the plane to fly at night.This plane holds the world record for the longest solar-powered flight——985 miles （1541 kilometers） from Arizona to Texas in the United States.
  
  （1）What do the three innovative ideas proposed have in common？

  
  A．They aim to solve traffic problems in big cities.
  B．They use cleaner energy and cause less pollution.
  C．They aim to change traditional way of transporting goods.
  D．They are good will of developed countries to help developing countries.
  （2）Which of the following statements is TRUE？

  
  A．China owns the largest number of motorcycles.
  B．There are no cars in the center of Venice city.
  C．Solar-powered water taxi can run for a day with one battery at work.
  D．The newly designed motorcycle can drive 60 miles after being charged.
  （3）According to the passage，the distinguished merit of Solar Impulse is

  .
  A．lighter wings
  B．less noise
  C．powerful batteries
  D．longest solar panels
