A 新素材 自动驾驶汽车(2025·广安中考)
Have you ever imagined being in a car which is driven by a
computer, not a human? In recent years, China has made great
progress in self-driving technology. Since August, 2022, self-
driving taxis can run on the roads in Wuhan, Chongqing and
Shenzhen. Why do we develop self-driving cars?
Self-driving cars can bring us many advantages. First, they use
computers to feel the things around them and make better use of
space. This means fewer traffic jams and better parking space for
cars. Second, self-driving cars can help the disabled or
blind people to get around more easily. Third, self-driving cars
hardly make wrong decisions or lose focus, so there will be
fewer accidents and deaths on the road.
However, self-driving cars are not perfect. They also have
some problems. If something unexpected on the road
happens, self-driving cars cannot react as fast as human
drivers. Also, when the weather is bad, like heavy snow, self-
driving cars cannot see the lines on the road easily. This may cause
an accident. Besides, if the computer system of the car is broken by
someone, the car will crash.
It is clear that there is still a long way to go to make self-driving
cars more common and safer. And China is taking steps to make
this happen.

A 【文章大意】本文介绍了自动驾驶汽车的优势和存在的问题,并强调中国在自动驾驶技术方面取得的进展。
1. B [解析]细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Since August,2022, self-driving taxis can run on the roads in Wuhan,Chongqing and Shenzhen.”可知,自动驾驶出租车已在武汉、重庆和深圳运行,未提及成都。故选B。
2. A [解析]代词指代题。根据第二段中的“Self-driving carscan bring us many advantages. First, they use computers...”可知,"they"指代前文提到的"self-driving cars(自动驾驶汽车)"。故选A。
3. C [解析]细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Third, self-driving cars hardly make wrong decisions or lose focus(注意力), so there will be fewer accidents and deaths on theroad.”可知,自动驾驶汽车几乎不会犯错或分心,因此交通事故会更少。故选C。
4. C [解析]细节多选题。根据第三段中的“If somethingunexpected(预料之外) on the road happens, self-drivingcars cannot react(反应) as fast as human drivers.”(对应①)、"when the weather is bad, like heavy snow, self-driving cars cannot see the lines on the road easily"(对应③)、"if the computer system of the car is broken bysomeone, the car will crash(撞毁)"(对应④)可知,文中未提及“它们对环境有害”(②)。故选C。
5. D [解析]主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文围绕自动驾驶汽车的优势(减少交通拥堵、方便残障人士出行、降低事故率)和问题(反应速度慢、恶劣天气下性能受限、系统安全风险)展开。故选D。

【分析】
本题是中考英语阅读理解题，围绕自动驾驶汽车展开，包含细节理解题、代词指代题、细节多选题、主旨大意题。解题时，细节题需定位题干关键词回原文找对应信息；代词指代题需结合上下文逻辑，找前文出现的核心名词；细节多选题要逐一核对选项与原文内容，排除未提及项；主旨题需梳理全文各段核心内容，明确文章主题。
【解析】
1. 细节理解题：根据第一段“Since August, 2022, self-driving taxis can run on the roads in Wuhan, Chongqing and Shenzhen.”可知，自动驾驶出租车运行的城市为武汉、重庆、深圳，未提及成都，故选B。
2. 代词指代题：第二段开篇提到“Self-driving cars can bring us many advantages. First, they use computers...”，此处“they”指代前文的“self-driving cars（自动驾驶汽车）”，故选A。
3. 细节理解题：根据第二段“Third, self-driving cars hardly make wrong decisions or lose focus, so there will be fewer accidents and deaths on the road.”可知，自动驾驶汽车几乎不犯错、不分心，因此道路上的事故会更少，故选C。
4. 细节多选题：第三段提到的自动驾驶汽车的问题：①遇到意外情况时反应不如人类驾驶员快；②恶劣天气（如大雪）下难看清道路线；③系统被他人破坏时会撞毁。文中未提及“对环境有害”，故排除②，选C。
5. 主旨大意题：全文先介绍自动驾驶汽车的优势，再阐述其存在的问题，核心围绕自动驾驶汽车的优缺点展开，故选D。
