【答案】I.B2.A3.D4.C5.C

【解析】本文主要介紹了電動(dòng)汽車的優(yōu)點(diǎn)和缺點(diǎn)。

1.主旨大意題。閱讀第一段可知，本段主要講述了電動(dòng)汽車越夾越受到人們的歡迎，故選B。

2.推理判斷題。由文中圖片可知，圖片主要展示了電動(dòng)汽車的總成，故選A。

3.推理判斷題。閱讀最后一段可知，文中談到了電動(dòng)汽車的缺點(diǎn)，即行程有限和充電的問(wèn)題，故選D。

4.同義猜測(cè)題。文中“batteries”的意思是電池，由句中“howfar”和“need”可知，charge的意思是充電，故選

Co

5.推理判斷題。由最后一段句子"Chinanowhasthousandsmorechargingstationsthanitdidtenyearsago.“可

知，中國(guó)是通過(guò)建造更多的充電站來(lái)改善電動(dòng)汽車的缺點(diǎn)的，故選C。
