Unmanned planes, r drnes, have a great pssibility t transprt emergency necessities t distant r disaster-attacked places. Hwever, they are expensive t mass prduce and ften require special launch pads （发射台）t launch and land safely. In additin, the need fr the aircraft t have enugh battery life t return cuts the flying distance t half. But these prblems may be histry, thanks t an affrdable drne that is designed fr a ne-way jurney.
The APSARA drne is the prductin f San Francisc-based Otherlab. The drnes, which measure abut a meter in size, are made almst entirely f cardbard tgether with packing tapes.When drpped frm a plane, APSARA drnes can travel up t 150 kilmeters and land within 10meters f the aim. The develpers say t get t the farthest distance, the drnes shuld be drpped frm a height f 35,000 feet r higher in the air. Despite the fact that the aircraft can carry things f nly 2. 2 punds nw, Otherlab researchers are cnfident they will be able t increase the number t 22 punds in future mdels. Since the drnes are designed fr single-use, a crash landing is nt just acceptable, but preferred, given that it speeds up t break dwn the cardbard as lng as it desn't affect the precius gds, f curse! The best thing is APSARA’s easy assemblage（装配）that takes nly 30 minutes.
Hwever, thugh the cardbard meets DARPA's requirement t "break dwn", the small electrnic parts n the aircraft dn't. T change that, Otherlab hpes t brrw sme f the technlgy develped fr DARPA's Vanishing Prgrammable Resurces (VAPR) prject. VAPR prvided mney fr research t build self-destrying accessries t prevent high-tech military equipment frm falling int enemies hands.
The cst f these single-use aircraft has nt been revealed, but the prducer prmises they will be"very cheap". If that's the case the amazing drnes will make transprtatin f medicines, bld, cmmunicatin equipment, and ther emergency necessities t unreachable areas an easy jb!
32. Accrding t the first paragraph, which f the fllwing is the disadvantage f traditinal drnes?
A. Their price is t high. B. They can't carry t many gds.
C.Special pads are needed t launch. D. The battery life is nt lng enugh t return.
33. Hw is the APSARA drne launched?
A. It is drpped frm a flying plane. B. It is sent up frm a sailing ship.
C. It is launched frm a land pad. D. It is released frm a satellite.
34.What's the mst utstanding part f the APSARA drnes?
A.They're able t land in the aim place exactly. B.They can travel up t 150 kilmeters.
C.They can hld 22 punds f things. D.They need nly half an hur t be assembled.
35.We can infer that Otherlab is trying t make the APSARA drne___________.
A. as light as pssible B. as strng as pssible C. as small as pssible D. as green as pssible
