【原文】M: Welcome to Daily Talk. Today we’re joined by Kate Smith, an archeologist from Germany. Kate, what did you discover in your latest research?
W: We uncovered several antiques. The most valuable find was a small bronze container decorated with cloud patterns. It was probably used to hold water. We also discovered a shell necklace, which we believe belonged to children, as well as some stone tools like a knife for cutting plants.
M: Those sound fascinating, but I am imagining the work wasn’t easy. What challenges did your team face?
W: The wind was our biggest challenge. For two weeks, strong winds blew heavily. Also the bronze container was buried very deep and it took us three days to remove it safely.
M: A painstaking process but a satisfying result, right? Will these items be on display in a museum?
W: Maybe, but not right away, because we’ll give the items a good clean first. Then we’ll recheck their age and take detailed records in the lab. So far, we haven’t found a safe way to display them yet. More visitors could also mean a higher risk of damage, but we will consider it once everything is ready.

In the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, Jingxi embroidered balls (绣球) — once symbols of love and good fortune — are now telling a new tale of cultural revival (复兴) and economic benefits. With their delicate patterns and brilliant colors, these handcrafted treasures were once at risk of disappearance.
Wang Xiufen, captured by their beauty, saw an opportunity to preserve tradition while transforming lives. Despite being unfamiliar with the craft, she refined her techniques through painstaking self-study and hands-on practice. At China’s “Golden Phoenix” innovative product design competition, her embroidered balls won two gold and two silver awards, earning her national recognition.
Recognizing their cultural significance of Jingxi embroidered balls, China entitled them as national intangible cultural heritage in 2006. “Yet, despite the remarkable craftsmanship of local craftsmen, many struggled to find a market for their work,” Wang said. Determined to bridge this gap, Wang launched an online store in 2010, introducing Jingxi embroidered balls to a wider audience.
As demand grew, she founded China’s first company dedicated exclusively to Jingxi embroidery in 2013, focusing on innovation, production, and scales. To boost efficiency, she introduced modern machinery, automating six production steps while preserving the delicate embroidery and assembly (组装) work for skilled craftsmen. To expand the craft’s reach, Wang has organized over 2,000 free training sessions, forming a core team of 20 expert craftsmen who now support more than 700 women in embroidered ball production. By incorporating elements favored by young people and customizing designs to suit diverse preferences, the craft has gained worldwide recognition. According to Wang, her company exported embroidered balls to the United States, Japan, Australia, Singapore, Thailand, and the Republic of Korea in 2023, generating over 10 million yuan in sales and securing 70 percent of Guangxi’s market share.
Looking ahead, Wang remains resolute in her mission. “I hope the embroidered ball industry continues to grow. That has always been my ultimate goal.”
24. How did Wang Xiufen initially gain recognition for her work?
A. By selling her products online. B. By opening a large-scale exhibition.
C. Through winning a national competition. D. Through her participation in trade shows.
25. What is the correct time order of the following events involving Wang Xiufen?

26. Which words can best describe Wang Xiufen?
A. Humorous and generous. B. Strict and conventional.
C. Cautious and modest. D. Determined and innovative.
27. What is Wang’s attitude towards the future of her business?

Travellers have long feared being swallowed into the peatlands (泥炭地): “If his foot slips ... it is possible he may never more be heard of,” described William Gilpin in 1772.
But now the image of this ecosystem finally turns a corner. UNESCO has recognized the Flow Country as a world heritage (遗产) site-the first peatland to make the list-due to its natural characteristics: the remarkable variety of plants and animals that live there. It’s also recognized that these peatlands are not humankind’s enemy but an important partner in the fight against climate crisis. Peat has formed in the Flow Country for 8,000 years, trapping carbon. It’s vital this carbon stays to avoid further global heating.
The Flow Country was chosen for its natural heritage not cultural significance, which comes as a welcome contrast to the vast majority of the UK’s other world heritage sites. Prioritising culture might make sense for places like Stonehenge or Durham Cathedral, but the Lake District? Not so much. The Lake District National Park is remarkable for its natural geography: deep valleys, uneven peaks and icy lakes. People have long shaped the area, but their impact is just a thin layer on a remarkably splendid landscape. Yet, when the park gained world heritage status in 2017, it was largely upon the basis of its relatively recent tradition of sheep farming. The decision reflected how the English perceive the natural world.
But the recognition of the Flow Country looks even more profound. It represents a change not only in our perception of peatlands but of nature itself. Unlike the Lake District, it prioritises not sheep, but moss (苔藓). This approach aligns with the growing movement to recognise the rights of nature: to reframe the natural world as something more than a collection of raw materials.
None of that is to ignore humans’ role in the Flow Country but we should recognize that no landscape in the UK can be considered in isolation from its culture, while also remembering that the human story never unfolds alone.
28. Why does the author quote William Gilpin in paragraph 1?
A. To illustrate the author’s point.
B. To give a scientific explanation.
C. To provide historical background.
D. To present a common partial view.
29. For what was the Flow Country recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site?
A. Climate benefit and natural value.
B. Beautiful scenery and conservation efforts.
C. Geographical uniqueness and rare species.
D. Educational significance and cultural value.
30. What does the underlined phrase “aligns with” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. addresses. B. matches. C. Challenges. D. Outweighs.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. The formation of the Flow Country.
B. The recognition of the Lake District.
C. The long-overdue respect for peatlands.
D. The conservation difficulties of peatlands.
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了泥炭地从过去被旅行者视为威胁的存在,到Flow Country成为首个入选世界遗产的泥炭地,其认知发生的转变;通过对比英国湖区的入选依据,阐述了Flow Country的入选不仅源于其自然价值与气候益处,更体现了人类对泥炭地乃至自然本身认知的深刻变化。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。文章第一段开篇提到“Travellers have long feared being swallowed into the peatlands (长期以来,旅行者们一直害怕被泥炭地吞没。)”,随后引用William Gilpin 1772 年的描述“If his foot slips ... it is possible he may never more be heard of (要是他脚一滑……可能就再也没人听说过他了。)”,是为了具体呈现过去人们对泥炭地普遍存在的恐惧和负面印象,旨在生动呈现历史上人们对泥炭地广泛存在的恐惧与负面印象 —— 这种视泥炭地为“威胁”的认知实属片面。第二段紧随其后以but进行转折,指出“now the image of this ecosystem finally turns a corner (如今该生态系统的形象终于迎来转变)”,形成强烈对比。因此,该处引用的主要目的在于呈现一种曾经普遍存在的片面观念。故选D。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“UNESCO has recognized the Flow Country as a world heritage (遗产) site-the first peatland to make the list-due to its natural characteristics: the remarkable variety of plants and animals that live there. It’s also recognized that these peatlands are not humankind’s enemy but an important partner in the fight against climate crisis. Peat has formed in the Flow Country for 8,000 years, trapping carbon. (联合国教科文组织已将福洛地区认定为世界遗产地 —— 这是首个入选该名录的泥炭地 —— 因其具备独特的自然特征:这里栖息着种类极为丰富的动植物。人们还认识到,这些泥炭地并非人类的敌人,而是应对气候危机的重要伙伴。福洛地区的泥炭已形成 8000 年之久,期间一直在固存碳。)”可知,Flow Country入选世界遗产的原因有两点:一是其显著的自然价值,二是其气候益处。故选A。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第四段“Unlike the Lake District, it prioritises not sheep, but moss ( 苔藓). This approach aligns with the growing movement to recognise the rights of nature: to reframe the natural world as something more than a collection of raw materials. (与湖区不同,福洛地区优先关注的并非绵羊,而是苔藓。这种理念契合了日益兴起的“承认自然权利”运动:该运动主张将自然界重新定义为不仅仅是原材料的集合体。)” 可知,Flow Country优先关注苔藓,即自然本身的理念,与“承认自然权利、不将自然仅视为原材料集合”的运动方向是一致的。“aligns with” 在此处意为“符合、匹配”,与“matches”含义相近。故选B。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。文章开篇以过去人们对泥炭地的恐惧引出话题,核心围 Flow Country成为首个泥炭地世界遗产展开,通过对比湖区的文化导向入选依据,强调Flow Country的入选源于自然价值与气候意义,更体现了人类对泥炭地从“敌人”到“伙伴”的认知转变 —— 这意味着泥炭地终于获得了应有的重视。选项C “The long-overdue respect for peatlands (泥炭地迟来的尊重)”概括了文章核心。故选C。
D
Do you usually spot the touchscreen first when checking out a new car? For years, almost every new car sold has a high-tech screen that controls everything. Even safety features like automatic lane-keeping are sometimes screen-controlled. But is it really safe?
If scrolling down the screen of a smartphone while driving is distracting and then doing likewise with your car’s is probably risky too. Drivers know the location of physical controls and press buttons without taking their eyes off the road. A touchscreen offers no physical feedback, making the operation much harder. And because screens have to do so many things, it often takes a few steps through several sub-menus to find the right setting.
In 2022, Vi Bilagare, a Swedish motoring magazine, measured how long it took drivers to do things like changing the temperature while driving at 110 kilometers per hour. It compared 11 cars with touchscreens to a single older model with real buttons. In the old cars, drivers were able to do all their tasks within about 10 seconds, while the worst-performing modern car took 45 seconds. Even in the best-performing modern cars, testers still took several seconds longer than in the old car.
Another study, done in 2024 by researchers in Norway, used tracking cameras to compare how long drivers were distracted while performing different tasks on a touchscreen. Even the quickest job like changing the temperature meant three and a half seconds, on average, of not looking at the road.
New rules from Euro NCAP, an organization that provides safety ratings for cars sold in Europe, will give no car a full five-star score unless certain crucial functions are controlled by real switches. Euro NCAP’s safety guidelines have no legal force, but carmakers use its ratings as a selling point.
Traditional carmakers have begun restoring some buttons to their new models. But innovation never stops. Even as touchscreens are falling out of favour, many manufacturers are turning their attention to voice control — though that is a subject for another story.
32. What is an advantage of physical buttons over touchscreens?
A. They are cheaper to produce and replace.
B. They are easier to see in bright sunlight.
C. They can be operated without looking at them.
D. They allow control of a wider range of functions.
33. Which took the longest time in the 2022 study?
A. The model running at 110 km/h. B. The old model with real buttons.
C. The best-performing modern car. D. The worst-performing modern car.
34. How does the author prove his argument in the passage?
A. By showing different research results. B. By telling his own driving experience.
C. By comparing the actions of car drivers. D. By mentioning the rules of an organization.
35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Safety features will be smarter. B. Touchscreens will be abandoned.
C. Voice control will dominate the market. D. In-car control will innovate continually.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了汽车中触摸屏与物理按钮的对比,通过研究数据和安全指南表明物理按钮在操作安全性上的优势,并提及汽车内部控制方式将持续创新。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Drivers know the location of physical controls and press buttons without taking their eyes off the road. A touchscreen offers no physical feedback, making the operation much harder.(驾驶员熟悉物理控件的位置,无需移开注视路面的视线即可完成按键操作。而触控屏无法提供实体反馈,使得操作难度显著增加)”可知,与触摸屏相比,实体按钮的优势在于司机无需转移视线即可操作。故选C项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“In the old cars, drivers were able to do all their tasks within about 10 seconds, while the worst-performing modern car took 45 seconds.(在旧款车上,司机能在大约10秒内完成所有任务,而表现最差的现代汽车需要45秒)”可知,2022年的研究中耗时最长的是表现最差的现代汽车。故选D项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“In 2022, Vi Bilagare, a Swedish motoring magazine, measured how long it took drivers to do things like changing the temperature while driving at 110 kilometers per hour. It compared 11 cars with touchscreens to a single older model with real buttons.(2022年,瑞典汽车杂志《Vi Bilagare》测量了司机在以每小时110公里的速度行驶时,调节温度等操作所需的时间。该研究将11辆配备触摸屏的汽车与一辆配备实体按钮的旧款车型进行了比较)”和第四段中“Another study, done in 2024 by researchers in Norway, used tracking cameras to compare how long drivers were distracted while performing different tasks on a touchscreen.(2024年,挪威的研究人员进行了另一项研究,他们使用追踪摄像头来比较司机在使用触摸屏执行不同任务时的分心时间)”可知,作者通过引用瑞典和挪威的研究数据,对比触摸屏与实体按钮的操作效率,进而证明实体按钮更安全。故选A项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Traditional carmakers have begun restoring some buttons to their new models. But innovation never stops.

【答案】36. B 37. D 38. G 39. F 40. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,主要就咨询医生的问题提出建议。
【36题详解】
由上文“When you go to the doctor, you’re probably the one answering most of the questions.(当你去看医生时,你可能是回答大部分问题的人。)”可知,去看医生你总是被提问,但是由后文可知你也可以问医生问题,所以这里存在转折关系,B选项“However, make sure you’re asking plenty of your own.(然而,要确保你问了很多你自己的问题。)”说明你也可以问问题,和前面存在转折关系,因此符合语境。故选B。
【37题详解】
上文提到“Screening yearly for mental-health disorders like depression is important too.(每年对抑郁症等精神疾病进行筛查也很重要。)”说明了对抑郁症等精神疾病进行筛查也很重要,如果医生没有提到心理疾病的检查,你应该主动询问医生,D选项“So if your doctor doesn’t bring it up, start the conversation.(所以,如果你的医生没有提起这件事,那就开始和他交谈。)”说明了可以向医生主动提出要进行心理疾病的检查,承接上文,符合语境。故选D。
【38题详解】
通过小标题“What vitamins and supplements might be helpful?(哪些维生素和补充剂可能有帮助?)”和上一句“But there are the ones that could actually benefit your health.(但也有一些对你的健康有益。)”可知,有一些维生素和补充剂是有益的,G选项“To know which is beneficial, ask your doctor, Edwards advises.(爱德华兹建议,要知道哪种是有益的,请咨询你的医生。)”说明可以问一下医生到底哪种维生素或补充剂有益,因此承接上文,符合语境。故选G。
【39题详解】
通过小标题“What kind of financial support is available?(有什么样的财政支持?)”可知,本段主要讨论资金支持,且根据下文中“If something isn’t covered in it, your doctor might be able to suggest some other choices.(如果有些东西没有包括在内,你的医生可能会建议你做其他选择。)”可以推断出it具体指代的内容应该与花费有关,F选项“Always ask how your insurance will affect treatment expenses.(经常询问你的保险将如何影响治疗费用。)”中的保险和花费有关,因此引起下文,符合语境。故选F。
【40题详解】
空格处是本段小标题,由空后的“Whether you’re at the doctor because you broke a bone, or are recovering from injuries, ask when you should start to feel better and what kind of warnings could signal the need for more care. Your doctor can tell you exactly when you should call her office or go to the emergency department.(无论你去看医生是因为你骨折了,还是正在从伤病中恢复,都要问一下你什么时候应该开始感觉好些,什么样的警告可能表明需要更多的护理。你的医生可以准确地告诉你什么时候应该打电话给她的办公室或去急诊室。)”可知,本段主要讲的是要问清楚如果症状恶化或没有改善该怎么办,E选项“What should I do if my symptoms worsen or don’t improve?(如果我的症状恶化或没有改善,我该怎么办?)”说明了要问如果症状恶化或没有改善该怎么办,概括了本段内容,且句式和前几段的小标题一致,因此可作为本段小标题。故选E。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The Martins adopted their pet dog Saladin ten years ago. A year later their daughter Lucie was born. Lucie grew up playing with Saladin. But as time went by, Saladin developed arthritis (关节炎). The family sent Saladi n to Dr. Adams. They paid for the best treatment. But Saladin’s arthritis was so bad that Dr. Adams failed to save him. Lucie was of course in total sadness.
Dr. Adams knew the family love animals. So when he found a homeless dog, he sent it to them. They were so delighted to have this hairy brown dog and named it Lollipop. As for this new dog, the family loved it even more than Saladin. Every day Lollipop would sit at the gate waiting for Lucie to come back from school. When Lucie opened the door, he would jump around and Lucie would pick him up and hug it happily.
After supper, the family would walk Lollipop to the grassland near their house. Mrs. Martin was always very careful to take a plastic bag to collect the waste Lollipop made. She never had Lollipop making mess to the surroundings.
Mr. Horace had just been promoted to management officer of the community. He worked so hard to make the community a better place. He made strict rules including rules about pets. Sometimes he had unpleasant arguments with awkward people. But the Martins always followed the rules very well.
Unluckily, while walking on the pavement (人行道) one day, somehow Lollipop made more waste than usual, obviously something was wrong with his health. But before the family could clean all the mess, the staff of the community showed up.
注意:

Hearing Dr. Adams’ words, Mr. Horace realized he misunderstood the Martins.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】They took Lollipop away in a cage, saying the owners didn’t follow the rules. The Martins were at a loss. Lucie was crying for losing Lollipop. But they were even more worried about Lollipop’s health. So they rushed to the community office and explained the dog’s condition to Mr. Horace, who wouldn’t believe them. Mrs. Martin called Dr. Adams. After he examined Lollipop, he found that Lollipop fell ill. Dr. Adams proved to Mr. Horace that the Martins were kind animal lovers and in fact they always follow the rules, keeping the environment clean.
Hearing Dr. Adams’ words, Mr. Horace realized he misunderstood the Martins. He apologized to them for his improper practice, asking them to bring Lollipop to Dr. Adams’ clinic for treatment. After further examination, Dr. Adams said something was wrong with Lollipop’s stomach, but not too bad. In relief, the Martins thanked Dr. Adams repeatedly and took their dear dog home with some medicine. They looked after Lollipop carefully. Soon he recovered and played joyfully with Lucie as before. They continued to live harmoniously with the community.
【解析】
【导语】文章以人物为线索展开,讲述了Martins一家与宠物狗Saladin和Lollipop之间的故事。他们收养了Saladin,后因Saladin患关节炎去世而伤心,随后Adams医生送来一只无家可归的狗Lollipop,他们非常喜爱这只狗。在养Lollipop过程中,他们遵守社区养宠规定,然而一天Lollipop健康出现问题,在人行道上排泄过多,此时社区工作人员恰好出现。
【详解】1.段落续写
①由第一段首句内容“工作人员把洛利波普(Lollipop)关进笼子里带走了,还说狗主人没有遵守规定。”可知,第一段可描写Martins一家对Lollipop的担心以及寻求帮助的过程。
②由第二段首句内容“听了Adams医生的话,Horace先生意识到自己误解了Martins一家。”可知,第二段可描写Horace先生道歉,Adams医生治疗Lollipop以及Martins一家人悉心照顾Lollipop以及与它快乐相处。
2.续写线索:担心Lollipop——寻求帮助——Adams医生为Martins一家人证明——Horace先生道歉——Adams医生治疗Lollipop——Martins一家人悉心照顾Lollipop——快乐玩耍

In the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, Jingxi embroidered balls (绣球) — once symbols of love and good fortune — are now telling a new tale of cultural revival (复兴) and economic benefits. With their delicate patterns and brilliant colors, these handcrafted treasures were once at risk of disappearance.
Wang Xiufen, captured by their beauty, saw an opportunity to preserve tradition while transforming lives. Despite being unfamiliar with the craft, she refined her techniques through painstaking self-study and hands-on practice. At China’s “Golden Phoenix” innovative product design competition, her embroidered balls won two gold and two silver awards, earning her national recognition.
Recognizing their cultural significance of Jingxi embroidered balls, China entitled them as national intangible cultural heritage in 2006. “Yet, despite the remarkable craftsmanship of local craftsmen, many struggled to find a market for their work,” Wang said. Determined to bridge this gap, Wang launched an online store in 2010, introducing Jingxi embroidered balls to a wider audience.
As demand grew, she founded China’s first company dedicated exclusively to Jingxi embroidery in 2013, focusing on innovation, production, and scales. To boost efficiency, she introduced modern machinery, automating six production steps while preserving the delicate embroidery and assembly (组装) work for skilled craftsmen. To expand the craft’s reach, Wang has organized over 2,000 free training sessions, forming a core team of 20 expert craftsmen who now support more than 700 women in embroidered ball production. By incorporating elements favored by young people and customizing designs to suit diverse preferences, the craft has gained worldwide recognition. According to Wang, her company exported embroidered balls to the United States, Japan, Australia, Singapore, Thailand, and the Republic of Korea in 2023, generating over 10 million yuan in sales and securing 70 percent of Guangxi’s market share.
Looking ahead, Wang remains resolute in her mission. “I hope the embroidered ball industry continues to grow. That has always been my ultimate goal.”
24. How did Wang Xiufen initially gain recognition for her work?
A. By selling her products online. B. By opening a large-scale exhibition.
C. Through winning a national competition. D. Through her participation in trade shows.
25. What is the correct time order of the following events involving Wang Xiufen?
a. She set up China’s first company devoted to Jingxi embroidery.
b. She opened an online store to sell Jingxi embroidered balls.
c. The balls were listed as national intangible cultural heritage.
d. Her company achieved sales figures of over 10 million yuan.
A. c→b→a→d B. b→c→a→d C. c→a→b→d D. b→a→c→d
26. Which words can best describe Wang Xiufen?
A. Humorous and generous. B. Strict and conventional.
C. Cautious and modest. D. Determined and innovative.
27. What is Wang’s attitude towards the future of her business?
A. Doubtful. B. Confident. C. Uninterested. D. Worried.
C
Travellers have long feared being swallowed into the peatlands (泥炭地): “If his foot slips ... it is possible he may never more be heard of,” described William Gilpin in 1772.
But now the image of this ecosystem finally turns a corner. UNESCO has recognized the Flow Country as a world heritage (遗产) site-the first peatland to make the list-due to its natural characteristics: the remarkable variety of plants and animals that live there. It’s also recognized that these peatlands are not humankind’s enemy but an important partner in the fight against climate crisis. Peat has formed in the Flow Country for 8,000 years, trapping carbon. It’s vital this carbon stays to avoid further global heating.
The Flow Country was chosen for its natural heritage not cultural significance, which comes as a welcome contrast to the vast majority of the UK’s other world heritage sites. Prioritising culture might make sense for places like Stonehenge or Durham Cathedral, but the Lake District? Not so much. The Lake District National Park is remarkable for its natural geography: deep valleys, uneven peaks and icy lakes. People have long shaped the area, but their impact is just a thin layer on a remarkably splendid landscape. Yet, when the park gained world heritage status in 2017, it was largely upon the basis of its relatively recent tradition of sheep farming. The decision reflected how the English perceive the natural world.
But the recognition of the Flow Country looks even more profound. It represents a change not only in our perception of peatlands but of nature itself. Unlike the Lake District, it prioritises not sheep, but moss (苔藓). This approach aligns with the growing movement to recognise the rights of nature: to reframe the natural world as something more than a collection of raw materials.
None of that is to ignore humans’ role in the Flow Country but we should recognize that no landscape in the UK can be considered in isolation from its culture, while also remembering that the human story never unfolds alone.
28. Why does the author quote William Gilpin in paragraph 1?
A. To illustrate the author’s point.
B. To give a scientific explanation.
C. To provide historical background.
D. To present a common partial view.
29. For what was the Flow Country recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site?
A. Climate benefit and natural value.
B. Beautiful scenery and conservation efforts.
C. Geographical uniqueness and rare species.
D Educational significance and cultural value.
30. What does the underlined phrase “aligns with” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. addresses. B. matches. C. Challenges. D. Outweighs.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. The formation of the Flow Country.
B. The recognition of the Lake District.
C. The long-overdue respect for peatlands.
D. The conservation difficulties of peatlands.
D
Do you usually spot the touchscreen first when checking out a new car? For years, almost every new car sold has a high-tech screen that controls everything. Even safety features like automatic lane-keeping are sometimes screen-controlled. But is it really safe?
If scrolling down the screen of a smartphone while driving is distracting and then doing likewise with your car’s is probably risky too. Drivers know the location of physical controls and press buttons without taking their eyes off the road. A touchscreen offers no physical feedback, making the operation much harder. And because screens have to do so many things, it often takes a few steps through several sub-menus to find the right setting.
In 2022, Vi Bilagare, a Swedish motoring magazine, measured how long it took drivers to do things like changing the temperature while driving at 110 kilometers per hour. It compared 11 cars with touchscreens to a single older model with real buttons. In the old cars, drivers were able to do all their tasks within about 10 seconds, while the worst-performing modern car took 45 seconds. Even in the best-performing modern cars, testers still took several seconds longer than in the old car.
Another study, done in 2024 by researchers in Norway, used tracking cameras to compare how long drivers were distracted while performing different tasks on a touchscreen. Even the quickest job like changing the temperature meant three and a half seconds, on average, of not looking at the road.
New rules from Euro NCAP, an organization that provides safety ratings for cars sold in Europe, will give no car a full five-star score unless certain crucial functions are controlled by real switches. Euro NCAP’s safety guidelines have no legal force, but carmakers use its ratings as a selling point.
Traditional carmakers have begun restoring some buttons to their new models. But innovation never stops. Even as touchscreens are falling out of favour, many manufacturers are turning their attention to voice control — though that is a subject for another story.
32. What is an advantage of physical buttons over touchscreens?
A. They are cheaper to produce and replace.
B. They are easier to see in bright sunlight.
C. They can be operated without looking at them.
D. They allow control of a wider range of functions.
33. Which took the longest time in the 2022 study?
A. The model running at 110 km/h. B. The old model with real buttons.
C. The best-performing modern car. D. The worst-performing modern car.
34. How does the author prove his argument in the passage?
A. By showing different research results. B. By telling his own driving experience.
C. By comparing the actions of car drivers. D. By mentioning the rules of an organization.
35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Safety features will be smarter. B. Touchscreens will be abandoned.
C. Voice control will dominate the market. D. In-car control will innovate continually.
