Attitudes tward new technlgies ften fall alng generatinal lines. That is, generally, yunger peple tend t utnumber (比……多) lder peple n the frnt end f a technlgical shift.
It is nt always the case, thugh. When yu lk at attitudes tward driverless cars, there desn't seem t be a clear generatinal divide. The public verall disagree n whether they'd like t use a driverless car. In a study last year, f all peple surveyed, 48 percent said they wanted t ride in ne, while 50 percent did nt.
The fact that attitudes tward self­driving cars appear t be s steady acrss generatins suggests hw transfrmative the shift t driverless cars culd be. Nt everyne wants a driverless car nw—and n ne can get ne yet—but amng thse wh are pen t them, every age grup is similarly engaged.
When it cmes t driverless cars, differences in attitude are bvius based n factrs nt related t age. Cllege graduates, fr example, are particularly interested in driverless cars cmpared with thse wh have less educatin: 59 percent f cllege graduates said they wuld like t use a driverless car cmpared with 38 percent f thse with a high­schl diplma r less.
Where a persn lives matters, t. Mre peple wh lived in cities and suburbs said they wanted t try driverless car than thse wh lived in rural areas.
While there's reasn t believe that interest in self­driving cars is ging up, a persn's age will have little t d with hw self­driving cars can becme mainstream. Once driverless cars are actually available fr sale, the early adpters will be the peple wh can affrd t buy them.

【主题语境】人与社会
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述Sammy Flynn放弃了事先计划好的在游乐园的生日聚会，和她的父亲Richard一起去帮助一个需要帮助的摩托车手。
【答案解析】
8. when 考查连词。sb. be ding sth. when… 意为“某人正在做某事时突然……”，是固定句型。
9. has gt 考查动词时态及主谓一致。在句型This is the first/secnd time that…中，that从句中的谓语动词用现在完成时，从句主语为Richard，故填has gt。
10. a 考查冠词。根据句意“一家位于马伦戈的摩托车修理店”可知，此处表数量“一”的概念，且mtrcycle首字母发辅音音素，故填不定冠词a。
11. really 考查副词。修饰动词用副词。
12. that 考查同位语从句。本句为同位语从句，故用that来引导。
13. his 考查代词。此处指“他的女儿的生日”，用形容词性物主代词修饰。
14. peratin 考查词形转换。作介词with的宾语，表“行动”，故用名词形式。
15. f 考查介词。think f意为“想起”，是固定短语。
16. minutes 考查名词复数。minute为可数名词，被数词修饰，故用名词复数。
17. t miss 考查非谓语动词。be willing t d意为“愿意做某事”，是固定搭配。
三、短文改错
(全国大联考2020届高三第四次考试)
The Internatinal Marathn has held three times in ur city since 2016. I felt luckily enugh t be chsen as a mini­marathn runner in last Nvember. Lacking special training, I almst wanted t quit an event. On that day, I lined up with ther 25，000 runners, mst f wh were prfessinal runners. Realize running was a battle against myself, I was ready t finish ur first marathn. At mile 1, my tw leg were still cmfrtable. At mile 3, I gt a pain in my ankle, but I kept ging. With the finishing line ahead, I seemed t run fast than befre. Finally, I get the same medal as the ne the winner had!
【答案解析】
第一处：在has后加been。考查动词语态。句意：自2016年以来“国际马拉松比赛”在我们城市举办了三次。此处主语The Internatinal Marathn与动词hld之间为被动关系，故应用被动语态。
第二处：把luckily改为lucky。考查形容词。feel是连系动词，后接形容词作表语，构成系表结构。
第三处：删除last前的in。考查介词。last Nvember可直接作时间状语，in多余。
第四处：把an改为the。考查冠词。此处特指上文提到的马拉松比赛，故用定冠词修饰event。
第五处：把wh改为whm。考查定语从句。在定语从句中，关系代词作介词f的宾语，应用宾格形式，故将wh改为whm。
第六处：把Realize改为Realizing。考查非谓语动词。句子的主语与Realize在逻辑上为主谓关系，故用动词­ing形式短语作状语。
第七处：把ur改为my。考查代词。这里指的是“我的第一次马拉松比赛”，故将ur改为my。
第八处：把leg改为legs。考查名词复数。此处指作者的两条腿，leg应用复数形式。
第九处：把fast改为faster。考查副词比较级。句意：终点就在前方，我似乎跑得比之前更快了。此处表比较含义，故应用副词比较级形式。
第十处：把get改为gt。考查动词时态。此处表示过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时。
