17、seeing the childrens reaction to the Batmobile.Based on the number of failures he had seen in car groups,he estimated that only about one in 50 attempted constructions was actually finished and he realized what an incredible opportunity he had.Mr.Blackburn started the project at the beginning of 201
18、8 after hearing a friend in the US was doing the same thing.It started with importing an outer shell overseas,before picking brains of a friend who had a background as a worker in a car factory to gain knowledge of how to build the car.With the help of his friend,Mr.Blackburn built the Batmobile in
19、18 months with the cost reaching six figures.Mr.Blackburn hoped to add a flamethrower(喷火器)onto the back of the vehicle and said he had thought about building the more recent Batman Tumbler from the series film Dark Knight.Though Mr.Blackburn encountered plenty of difficulties to get over during the
20、construction,in September 2019,the car made its first show at the Carnival of Flowers in Toowoomba,before being used by Blackburns son for his hope.“It was great.It was so good to see the kids and adults excitement at seeing the Batmobile.”Mr.Blackburn said.As a result,the car lovers hope to make th

24、m of their language that is more correct than others.They may believe for example that British English is more correct than other varieties;or that written English is more correct than spoken English.Often this belief is supported by reference books to grammars,usage guides or dictionaries:if someth
25、ing goes against a rule in a grammar,or if the word isnt in the dictionary,it“must be wrong”.Since the reference books are most often based on observation of the standard written language,the argument is really circular:these books will naturally describe standard usage,because that is what they are
26、 for;but this does not mean that there is anything wrong with other kinds of usage that are less often described.A better way of looking at things is to say that usage is“correct in its place”.Standard American English is correct in America,and formal written grammar is employed in formal writing.So
27、 this means there is no answer to the question:“What kind of English should learners study?”It depends on their purposes.For many learners,the best model is one or other of the two main standard varieties:British or American English.Neither of these is“better”than the other,and they are both used an
28、d understood worldwide.People are also worried by language change.If younger people“break”the rules that older people have learnt,older people often feel disturbed:they are concerned that younger people no longer know their grammar,and that the language is going downhill.This is a needless worry:cha
29、nge is natural and inevitable,it cannot be stopped,and it does not generally affect a languages efficiency as a communicative tool.A great deal of modem English grammar would have been wrong three hundred years ago,and will perhaps be wrong again three hundred years from now.28.What can we infer fro
30、m paragraph 1?A.Learners are always confused by the reference books.B.Some wrong usages can be found in the reference books.C.Nobody can challenge the authority of the reference books.D.Usages not mentioned in the reference books are not necessarily wrong.29.What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A.There
31、is no“standard English”.B.American English is better than British English.C.A learner should master all the distinctions of different English.D.The differences between British English and American English.30.Which word can replace the underlined word“inevitable”in paragraph 3?A.Avoidable.B.Formal.C.

33、 nest and sources of food.The survival of their habitats depends on doing this efficiently.When humans commute,theres a point at which cars become dense(稠密)enough to slow down the flow of traffic,causing jam.researchers wanted to know if ants on the move could also get stuck.So they regulated traffi
34、c density by constructing bridges of various widths between a colony of Argentine ants and a source of food.Then they waited and watched,trying to find out at what point they are going to have a traffic jam.But it appears that that never happened.They always managed to avoid traffic jam.The flow of
35、ants did increase at the beginning as ants started to fill the bridge and then levelled off at high densities.But it never slowed down or stopped,even when the bridge was nearly filled with ants.The researchers then took a closer look at how the behaviour of individual ants impacted traffic as a who
36、le.And they found that when ants sense overcrowding,they adjust their speeds and avoid entering high-density areas,which prevents jams.These behaviors may be promoted by pheromones,chemicals that tell other ants where a trail is.The ants also manage to avoid colliding(碰撞)with each other at high dens
37、ities,which could really slow them down.Can ants help us solve our own traffic problems?Not likely.Thats because when it comes to getting from point A to point B as fast as possible,human drivers put their own goals first.Individual ants have to be more cooperative in order to feed the colony.But th
38、e research could be useful in improving traffic flow for self-driving cars,which can be designed to be less like selfish humansand more like ants.32.What does the underlined word“this”in paragraph 2 refer to?A.Surviving.B.Commuting.C.Finding food.D.Avoiding jams.33.How did the researchers control th
39、e traffic density of the commuting ants?A.Through closer observation.B.By regulating their numbers.C.By finding out the dense points.D.By controlling the widths of their path.34.How can ants avoid traffic jam according to the research?A.They follow a special route.B.They level off at high densities.
40、C.They never stop or slow down on the way.D.They depend on their natural chemicals to adjust their speeds.35.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Traffic jamsB.Survival of an ant colonyC.Unavoidable?Not for ants!D.Differences between human and ants第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面
