【正確答案】25、C26、D27、A

【試題解析】25、【解析】

【分析】這是一篇說明文。美國華盛頓州的Bellevue采用了能隨交通狀況而調(diào)節(jié)交通燈時(shí)間的適應(yīng)性信號燈，

大大緩解了交通壓力，也表明人們對于交通阻塞問題不再只是拓寬道路，而是能夠采用新方法。

【25題詳解】

指代猜測題。That位于第二段句首，應(yīng)是指代第一段的內(nèi)容。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容尤其是第一段最后一句"Justlike

thetrafficitself,thetimingofthesignalschanges.（就像交通本身一樣，信號燈的時(shí)間也會變化）”可知，第一段主

要講述的是信號燈的時(shí)間會靈活變化；"Thatisbydesign.”意為“那是有意為之”，由此可推知，That指代第一

段中“信號燈的靈活時(shí)間故選C項(xiàng)。

26、［26題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段第一句中“adaptivesignalsarenotacure-allforjammedroadways（但自適應(yīng)信號并不是

解決擁堵道路的萬能藥）”及第二句中“othersaresojammedthatonlyasharpreductioninthenumberofcarsonthe

roadwillmakeameaningfuldifference（其他城市交通堵塞如此嚴(yán)重，只有減少道路上的車輛才能起有意義的作

用）''可推知，KevinBalke認(rèn)為適應(yīng)性信號燈對于交通堵塞很嚴(yán)重的城市沒有太大幫助。故選D項(xiàng)。

27、［27題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段最后-?句"Theselights,knownasadaptivesignals,haveledtosignificantdeclinesinboth

thetroubleandcostoftravelsbetweenworkandhome.（這些燈，被稱為適應(yīng)性信號燈，已經(jīng)大大減少了通勤的麻

煩和花費(fèi)）”最后一段第一句"InBellevue,theswitchtoadaptivesignalshasbeenalessoninthevalueofwelcoming

?<8

newapproaches.（在Bellevue,對適應(yīng)性信號燈的轉(zhuǎn)變是?個(gè)在歡迎新方法的價(jià)值方面的榜樣）”可推知，從

Bellevue的成功中可以得出，嘗試新事物是值得的。故選A項(xiàng)。
