Question

It has been a dream for 30 years but now the world’s first flying car is set to hit the roads this year.

    Ever since the “Back to the Future” movies lit up our screens in the 1980s，designers have dreamt of cars that could take to the sky at the push of a button．And now pilots can order their own “roadable” plane for just £ 127,000.

    The plane, which has fold-out wings that span(翼展)17.5ft，has a range of flying distance of 460 miles and can be up to 115 mph．Back on the land，it can also travel at“highway speeds”in car mode(模式)．

    Fueling the 19ft. long plane couldn’t be simpler----you just drive it into a petrol station and fill it up．

    A spokeswoman said, “You can keep you ‘light-sport airplane’ in your garage.But because it needs a short runway to take to the air, you will have to drive to your local airport，fly up to 460 miles, land，and drive directly to your destination．You will always be ready to drive or fly．"

    The spokeswoman added,“Never let bad weather change your trip.You call simply divert(改道)and continue on the ground until the weather clears.”   

    There is no risk to you—This is only the chance for you to be the first at your home field to unfold your wings and fly into the future．

【名师点睛】

我们在做阅读理解时的具体步骤：

（1）先精读问题，了解题后做到心中有数。

（2）用目光略读全文，捕捉有关信息。可利用标题、主题句等。例如，读记叙文时我们要问5W，即为何(Why)、什么(What)、谁(Who)、何时(When)、何地(Where)、怎样(How)。例如要找一个人名，我们可以直接找到含有这个人名的句子。（3）停下来读这个句子。如果是答案。我们这个问题就解决了，如果不是，可以继续搜寻查找。同时注意一些关键的提示词和标点符号。如本文的23小题，If you meet with a thunderstorm in your“roadable”plane in the skies，you can ________ ．根据第六段中的“You can simply divert and continue on the ground until the weather clears. ”可知如果遇到不好的天气, 你可以在陆地上开车直到天气好转。故选B项。
