【解析】

【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】這是一篇記敘文。文章主要介紹作者在海岸警衛(wèi)隊(duì)使用氣墊船的體驗(yàn)。

【24題詳解】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由文章第一段"They'vebeendiscontinuedinmostcommercialoperation,becausetheyareso

expensivetomake,butwhenitcomestosearchandrescue,they'repriceless.（它們?cè)诖蠖鄶?shù)商業(yè)運(yùn)營(yíng)中都已停

產(chǎn)，因?yàn)樗鼈兊闹圃斐杀咎?，但在搜救方面，它們是無(wú)價(jià)的。）”可知，氣墊船的生產(chǎn)成本使氣墊船不適

合商業(yè)使用。故選D項(xiàng)。

[25題詳解】

主旨大意題。由文章第二段“Fromfaraway,ahovercraftlookslikeanormalboat.Butifyoulookunderits

skirt,thecraftisnottouchingthewater-itfloatsonacushionofair.Thatcushionallowsustotravelover

everythingfromwatertomuddyland-andevenbreakthroughice.Wedoallofthatasa70-tonnemachine,

goingamaximumofnearly120kilometersperhour.（從遠(yuǎn)處看，氣墊船就像一艘普通的船。但如果你從它的

裙子下面看，這艘船并沒(méi)有碰到水——它漂浮在氣墊上。這種緩沖墊可以讓我們穿越從水到泥濘的土地的

一切，甚至可以破冰。我們完成所有這些工作正如一臺(tái)70噸重的機(jī)器那樣，最高時(shí)速接近120公里。）”

以及后文可知，本段主要介紹氣墊船的與眾不同之處。故選C項(xiàng)。

[26題詳解】

推理判斷題。由文章第三段uDuringassignmentsonothercoastguardships,Ihad20minutestomake

alterationstoavoidacrash.Inahovercraft,Ihave10seconds.Youhavetohaveenoughsituationalawarenessto

maketherightdecisioneverytime.（在其它海岸警衛(wèi)隊(duì)船只上執(zhí)行任務(wù)時(shí)，我有20分鐘的時(shí)間進(jìn)行改變航

線，以避免發(fā)生撞擊事故。在氣墊船上，我有10秒的時(shí)間。你必須有足夠的情境意識(shí)，才能每次都做出

正確的決定。）”可知，氣墊船駕駛員必須做出更快的反應(yīng)。故選A項(xiàng)。

[27題詳解】

推理判斷題。由文章最后一段“Anythingcanthrowthehovercraftoff一maybeyourliftsettingsareoffalittle,

orthewindblowswithabitofextraweight.Afterseveralyearsoperatingahovercraft,I'mstilllearning.Everyone

ofthecaptainshereagrees:youcandrivethisthingfor20yearsandstillbesurprised.（任何事情都可能使氣墊船

偏離——也許你的升力設(shè)置有點(diǎn)偏離，或者風(fēng)吹得有點(diǎn)重。在操作氣墊船幾年后，我仍在學(xué)習(xí)。這里的每

一位隊(duì)長(zhǎng)都同意：你可以駕駛這輛車20年，但仍然會(huì)感到驚訝。）”可知，作者認(rèn)為操作氣墊船是要求很

高的。故選B項(xiàng)。
