Google, the leading company in self-driving technology, has changed its develop plan. It had driverless cars built by car factories, but now it will start building its own cars.Google has started to build some kinds of experimental electric self- driving cars that look like a Smart car or Fiat 500. There is no steering wheel(方向盘), gas pedal or brake. The only things a human passenger controls are a red e-stop button (按钮) for fear stops and a start button. The cars only friendly face is designed to make it help people accept self-driving technology.Google workers took part in a long experiment, in which they used self-driving cars for their usual travel to work. No accident happened, but Googles heads realized that depending on a human passenger to drive in an emergency(紧急情况) wouldnt work because they may be reading, working , or sleeping. Now the self-driving car drives by itself if the driver takes his hands off the wheel for over ten seconds.Google recently announced that its cars had covered 700,000 miles of public roads, and they were now running in busy city streets. People who love self-driving cars say this will improve transport by making roads safer, cutting down accident, and making less pollution.Of course, theres no need to look for parking at a crowded shopping mall. Instead, users could let their self-driving cars drop them off to park itself. A mother who took a test ride said that having the car would allow her more time to catch up with her son. The cars could also allow people who might not be able to drive to enjoy the hand-free driving. And drunk driving? Not a problem. It is very likely that by 2020, driverless cars will be common. Do you believe so?（1）What is Googles plan about driverless cars? A . It will have driverless cars built by car factories.B . It will give up its plan to make driverless cars.C . It will start building its own driverless cars.D . It will help other companies to make cars.（2）The second paragraph mainly describes about _. A . Google self-driving carsB . Smart car or Fiat 500C . a red e-stop buttonD . gas pedal or brake（3）What advantage of self-driving cars is not mentioned? A . They can start the engine by itself and make peoples hands completely free.B . They can help to solve air pollution and reduce car accident.C . They can park by themselves and make mothers look after young kids easily.D . They can help those disabled people to enjoy the driving.（4）We can guess from the last paragraph that _. A . self-driving cars are too expensive B . there will be fewer self-driving carsC . there will be more self-driving cars D . the government will stop Googles plan19. （10分）阅读理解AWe need volunteers!Boys and girls, the school sports meeting is only a week away.Dont you feel excited?As you know, our school holds the sports meeting twice a year, in April and in October.This spring, the sports meeting will last for three days, beginning on April 10.We always have a lot of things to do during the sports meeting，so we need your help from 9：30 to 11：00 in the morning and from 2：30 to 4：30 in the afternoon.We need two boy volunteers and three girl volunteers.If you are interested, please call me at 3783892 as soon as possible.Im Jackie Green.You can also call Tony Black at 3788903.（1）How soon will the school sports meeting be?
