Then decide whether the following statements are True or False.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog.Time limitation: 4 minutes and 12 secondsWhat kind of car will we be driving in 2023《 They would be rather different from the type we know today, with the next twenty years bringing greater change than the past fifty. The people who will be designing the models of tomorrow believe that environmental problems may well accelerate (加速) the pace of automotive design. Today they are students on the transport design course at London's Royal college of Art. Their vision (相象中的画面) is of a machine with three wheels instead of four, electrically powered, environmentally clean, and able to drive itself along \built-in power supplies. Future cars will pick up their fuel during long journeys from a power source built into the road, or store it in small quantities for travel in the city.Instead of today's seating arrangements-two in front, two or three behind, all facing forward-the 2023 car will have a versatile (有许多用途的) interior with adults and children in a family circle.This view of the future car is based on a much more sophisticated (复杂的) road system, with strips built into motorways to supply power to vehicles passing along them. Cars will not need drivers, because computers will provide safe driving control and route finding. All the driver will have to do is say where to go and the computer will do the rest. It will become impossible for cars to crash (撞) into one another. The technology already exists for the car to become a true automobile.1.
