单项选择题 Task 2Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45.British university entrants(新学员) expect to be provided with washing machines and dryers in their rooms, and even car parking spaces, a survey has found. Students are also less prepared to tolerate poor quality living conditions than their predecessors, says the survey by British polling organization Mori. More than 1,000 full-time undergraduates and postgraduates from 21 universities across the UK were surveyed for the research. It shows that location is the key factor in choosing accommodation for students—nearly half of those interviewed said that being close to their place of study was the most important factor in their choice. Cost came second, with evidence that many parents foot the bills for their children's rent. The survey also shows that students are no longer prepared to carry bags of washing to the nearest launderette(自动洗衣店). These newcomers expect washers and dryers to be provided with their accommodation. The study also highlights those things today's students expect as standard—communal (公共的) areas to be cleaned regularly, utility bills to be included, even private car parking space to be included. Separate findings from the UK's National Union of Students published earlier this year show more than half of students in private rented accommodation are living in unsatisfactory conditions.Who are the subjects of the survey?A.Some oversea students in UK.B.Some undergraduates and postgraduates in UK universities.C.Some graduates in UK universities.D.Some British students in other countries.

单项选择题 The latest generation of Honda's solar cars, the Dream, broke the record in this year's World Solar Challenge (WSC). Starting in Darwin on Sunday, 26th October, the two-man, four-wheel vehicle completed the 3010-kin-course to Adelaide in just 33 hours and 32 minutes, taking two and a half hours off the remarkable time set three years ago by the previous Honda Dream team in a lighter, one-man, three-wheel vehicle. The latest Dream managed an average speed of 89.76 km/h, compared to 84.96 km/h for the previous one, despite stormy winds and uphill slope slowing all the competitors during the event's second day. However, during the final day's run from the South Australian desert mining town of Coober Pedy to Adelaide, the Dream cruised(以发动机效率最高的速度行驶) at 100 km/h, occasionally accelerating to 110 km/h. 'We are very tired and very happy,' the Dream team's project leader, Masashi Kitagawa, told the crowd of reporters waiting at the finish line at Adelaid's Technology Park. The School of Biel team placed second, an hour and 28 minutes behind the Dream, having averaged 86 km/h. The Swiss engineering school is Honda's perennial rival(竞争对手) in this event, having beaten Honda in 1990 to set a course record of 38.50 hours. However, they placed a distant second to the Honda Dream in the 1993 event. A full report, along with pictures, will appear in the next issue of Honda: The Magazine.The phrase 'the latest generation of Honda's solar ears, the Dream' implies that ______.A.Honda is a car makerB.the Dream is a model of solar car produced by HondaC.Honda's solar technologies are being improved over timeD.all of the above
