GIRLS AND TECHNOLOGY
If you want your daughter to succeed, buy her a toy construction set That is the advice from Britain’s (51) _ female engineers and scientists Marie-Noelle Barton, who heads an Engineering Council campaign to encourage girls into science and engineering, maintains that some of Britain’s most successful women have had their careers (52) _ by the toys they played with as children Even girls who end (53) _ nowhere near a microchip or microscope could benefit from a better (54) _ of science and technology
‘It’s a (55) _ of giving them experience and confidence with technology so that when they are (56) _ with a situation requiring some technical known-how, they feel they can handle it and don’t just (57) _ defeat immediately’, says Mrs Barton ‘I believe that lost of girls feel unsure of themselves when it comes (58) _ technology and therefore they might be losing out on jobs because they are reluctant even to apply for them.’
Research recently carried out suggests that scientific and constructional toys should be (59) _ to girls from an early age, otherwise the result is ‘socialization’ into stereotypical female (60) _, which may explain why relatively few girls study science and engineering at university in Britain Only 14% of those who have gone for engineering options at university this year are women, although this figure does represent an improvement of the 7% recorded some years ago

Today’s cars are smaller, safer, cleaner, and more economical than their predecessors, but the car of the future will be far more pollution-free than those on the road today Several new types of automobile engines have already been developed than run on alternative sources of power, such
as electricity, compressed natural gas, methanol, steam, hydrogen, and propane Electricity, however, is the only zero-emission option presently available
Although electric vehicles will not be truly practical until a powerful, compact battery or other dependable source of current is available, transport experts foresee a new assortment of electric
vehicles entering everyday life: shorter-range commuter electric cars, three-wheeled neighborhood cars, electric delivery vans, bikes and trolleys
As automakers work to develop practical electrical vehicles, urban planners and utility engineers are focusing on infrastructure systems to support and make the best use of the new
cars Public charging facilities will need to be as common as today’s gas stations Public parking
spots on the street or in commercial lots will need to be equipped with devices that allow drivers
to charge their batteries while they stop, dine, or attend a concert To encourage the use of electric vehicles, the most convenient parking in transportation centers might be reserved for electric cars
Planners foresee electric shuttle buses, trains, buses and neighborhood vehicles all meeting at transit centers that would have facilities for charging and renting Commuters will be able to rent
a variety of electric cars to suit their needs: light trucks, one-person three-wheelers, small cars, or
electric/gasoline hybrid cars for longer trips, which will no doubt take place on automated
freeways capable of handling five times the number of vehicles that can be carried by freeway today
61 The following electrical vehicles are all mentioned in the passage EXCEPT _
62 The author’s purpose in the passage is to _
A criticize conventional vehicles
B support the invention of electric cars

A automated freeways B pollution restrictions in the future

A long-range B inexpensive C concentrated D squared
65 In the second paragraph, the author implies that _
A a dependable source of electric energy will eventually be developed
B everyday life will stay much the same in the future
C a single electric vehicle will eventually replace several modes of transportation
D electric vehicles are not practical for the future
66 According to the passage, public parking lots of the future will be _
A more convenient than they are today B equipped with charging devices
C much larger than they are today D as common as today’s gas stations
67 The word “charging” in this passage refers to _.

Trang 468 The word “foresee” in this passage could best be replaced with _.

A daily travelers B visitors C cab drivers D shoppers

A combination B hazardous C futuristic D automated
