Imagine you are driving on a stormy night, and your car suddenly warns you of the danger of an upcoming flood or an approaching hurricane. This future, where cars predict weather disasters well in advance, is edging towards reality, says the International Drivers Association. By 2030, cars are expected to develop into “smart machines” in which reliable, personal weather forecasting units are integrated, with advanced sensor technology and machine learning algorithms (算法) delivering real-time, exact weather updates.
“Bridging the gap between vehicular technology and meteorology (气象学) holds massive potential in increasing road safety,” says Julianna Marshall, a travel expert from the International Drivers Association. “Imagine your car warning you of trouble ahead and then directing you away from a road that’s about to be flooded or a bridge at risk of falling down due to strong winds. That’s a breakthrough we’re keenly looking forward to.”
Several key factors lay the groundwork for these weather-predicting abilities in cars by the year 2030.
Modern cars have complex sensors that can measure atmospheric pressure, temperature, humidity (湿度), and wind speed. These sensors can feed data into an onboard computer, providing crucial real-time weather information. Cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies can now analyse complex weather patterns and predict future outcomes. By integrating these technologies into car systems, your car’s computer can provide forecasts along your routes.
The interconnectivity of devices, known as the Internet of Things, will play a key role. Cars could share and receive weather data from a vast network of the connected devices, improving accuracy of predictions. Such tech-integrated cars will make driving during severe conditions safer while improving the overall travel experience. “Weather prediction in cars can save hundreds of lives per year by minimizing the likelihood of weather-related accidents,” Marshall emphasizes. “Getting hands on a car built with weather prediction technology might be optional today but will become imperative by 2030.”
Undeniably, 2030 promises the arrival of a changing age in car technology, a world where your car might just be your best weather forecaster. An age where “the future is now” is not just an exciting prospect—it’s the norm.
( )1.What can the future cars probably do?
A.Stop extreme weather happening.
B.Change the path of the hurricane.
C.Detect terrible weather conditions.
D.Teach drivers how to predict weather.
( )2.What does Paragraph 4 focus on?
A.The functions of complex sensors.
B.Operational principle of future cars.
C.The concept of the Internet of Things.
D.Increasing complexity of road safety.
( )3.What does the underlined word “imperative” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A.Reliable. B.Complex.
C.Necessary. D.Unrealistic.
( )4.What is the author’s intention in the last paragraph?
A.To keep promises.
B.To make predictions.
C.To express regrets.
D.To offer suggestions.

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
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。
Derek and Shirley walked out of the airport building and into the bright sunshine. Looking up at the brilliant blue sky and then at the faraway mountains rising above the swaying palm trees, they couldn’t wait to start their holiday.
A taxi pulled up swiftly and silently. Derek dropped their suitcases into the boot and joined Shirley in the back seat. “Palm Trees Hotel, please,” Derek said excitedly. “Certainly, sir,” replied the driver, as he turned around with a flashing white smile. Derek and Shirley gave each other a puzzled look as the taxi eased smoothly into the traffic. “Excuse me, er, your face seems very familiar—in fact, you remind us of that famous film star, Rocky Overton…but of course, you can’t be.”
Derek and Shirley sat in silent disbelief as the driver explained that he was not a real person, but a robot made to look like a famous actor. “Rocky” explained that the taxi company had purchased the latest model of robot drivers since they were programmed to be safer and more reliable than human drivers. “So, here I am,” “Rocky” continued, “your first robot taxi driver!”
Derek and Shirley held each other’s hands more tightly. “Relax,” “Rocky” reassured them. “There is nothing for you to worry about. I can assure you that my driving skills are excellent. I’m equipped with perfect vision and superior reactions, and I know every street in the city. I am instantly updated with the latest traffic information so that I can avoid traffic jams and get you to your destination in the quickest and least stressful manner. Please sit back, relax and enjoy the journey.”
Derek and Shirley, feeling a little better, leaned back in their seats and closed their eyes. “And another thing,” “Rocky” added, “my line of robots represents the ultimate in computer technology. I am beautifully designed, made from only the best materials and subject to the strictest quality checks. Therefore, you are entirely safe with me. Nothing could possibly go wrong…could possibly go wrong…go wrong…go wrong…”
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
Derek and Shirley looked at each other with great fear in their eyes.
Paragraph 2:
“Don’t worry, sir,” came the calm reply on the phone, “and your taxi is also a driverless car.”

2.续写线索:险情发生—两人行为—寻求帮助—解决办法—安全到达
One possible version:
Derek and Shirley looked at each other with great fear in their eyes. The taxi was moving faster and faster, and “Rocky” seemed to be malfunctioning. “Slow down!” Derek shouted, but “Rocky” did not respond. The robot drove even faster than before and narrowly missed a car. Terrified, Derek grabbed his phone. With trembling fingers, he called the taxi company. “Hello?” Derek shouted into the phone, “Our robot driver is having a breakdown and he’s completely out of control. We need help quickly!”
“Don’t worry, sir,” came the calm reply on the phone, “and your taxi is also a driverless car.” The reply continued, “We have the authority to disable the robot driver. Let me switch your taxi to the driverless mode and get you to your destination safely.” The taxi immediately slowed down and continued as if nothing had happened, although its driver could be heard mumbling to “himself”, “…go wrong…go wrong…” . When they finally arrived at their hotel, Derek and Shirley quickly got out of the taxi, relieved and grateful to be alive. As they watched the taxi move away, they agreed that for the rest of the holiday, they would walk everywhere!
