Cool Vehicles
Do you want to fly over cars or take a boat-bus? Let's meet some cool vehicles!
[Solar-Powered Floating Bus]
Solar-Powered Floating Bus(太阳能水上巴士)
This bus runs on rivers or lakes. It turns sunlight(阳光) into energy to move. And the energy can keep the bus running and the lights on at night. Cities like Hangzhou are testing small ones for short trips.

Flying Car
A flying car can drive on roads and fly in the sky. It helps people stay away from red lights and busy traffic. Some flying cars can only stay in the air for 30 minutes. So pilots use them for short trips.

[Flying Car]
Autonomous Drone
Autonomous Drone(自动驾驶无人机)
This drone can take one or two people. It doesn't need a pilot. It flies by itself. You just type in the name of the place you want to go to on a phone. Then the doors close and it flies straight up into the air.

Amazing Train
This train looks like a grey pencil through a tube. There's almost no air inside it! Without the wind slowing it down, it can reach 1,000 km/h. That's so fast that you can travel from Beijing to Shanghai in just about one hour!

[Vacuum Tube Maglev Train]
The future is almost here! Which new vehicle will you try first?

1. C 【细节理解】由短文中的 Solar-Powered Floating Bus 部分中的“It turns sunlight into energy to move.”可知，太阳能水上巴士将阳光转化为能量来移动。
2. A 【细节理解】由短文中的 Flying Car 部分中的“A flying car can drive on roads and fly in the sky.”可知，飞行汽车既能在道路上行驶，也能在空中飞行。
3. B 【词义猜测】该画线部分出现在介绍自动驾驶无人机的段落中。上文描述了这种无人机如何操作，此处“it”指代的是前面提到的“这架无人机”。
4. A 【数字计算】由短文中的 Amazing Train 部分中的“...you can travel from Beijing to Shanghai in just about one hour!”可知，乘坐真空管道磁悬浮列车从北京到上海只需要大约一小时。如果上午九点从北京出发，到达上海的时间大约为上午十点。
5. B 【主旨大意】通读全文，短文介绍了太阳能水上巴士、飞行汽车、自动驾驶无人机和真空管道磁悬浮列车这四种交通工具，它们都是未来的新型交通工具。
