It is 40 meters long and 6 meters wide. This must be the biggest bus you have ever seen. It can carry 1,200 to 1,400 people.
It is China’s new Super Bus. It went for a test run in Beijing. Some other cities are also interested in running the Super Bus. They hope it can solve traffic problems.
The Super Bus runs along *fixed tracks. The bus sits on top of two2.2-meter-tall legs. The legs have wheels at one end. Small cars can drive under the bus, so the Super Bus does not take up road space.
The bus runs on *electricity and *solar power. It can travel up to 60 km every hour. Its creator, Song Youzhou, says it can reduce a lot of traffic *jams.
The Super Bus can do the work of 40 buses. In that way, it can save 860 tons of *fuel every year, according to Song.
‘ Building a Super Bus and its track costs less than building subways. Subways are nearly ten times more expensive to build. ’ Song says.
Some people worry that the Super Bus may not be safe. However, Song says there’s no need to worry about that. The Super Bus has *laser *scanners between its legs. The scanners make sure the cars keep a safe distance.

(答案→)A 解析：这篇短文讲述了北京新研发的超级公交车，它有超大的载客量，行驶时不占路面，节约能源等优点；它的激光扫描仪可以保证车辆的安全。【小题1】细节理解题。文章第一段It can carry 1,200 to 1,400 people.它可以承载1200到1400个人，故选A。【小题2】 细节理解题。文章第二段Some other cities are also interested in running the Super Bus. They hope it can solve traffic problems.一些其他城市也对这种超级公交车感兴趣，他们希望可以用它解决交通问题，故选B。【小题3】判断推理题。在文章里面，提到了很多这种公交车的优点，例如不占路面，有超大的容量，节约能源等，但没有提到它容易驾驶，故选C。【小题4】细节理解题。文章最后一段The Super Bus has *laser *scanners between its legs. The scanners make sure the cars keep a safe distance.超级公交车在它的两腿中间有激光扫描仪，它可以确保车辆在安全的距离外，故选D。
