The answer t traffic jams n the highways arund airprts culd be electric air taxis. But this is nt a futuristic dream. United Airlines is helping t make it a reality.
The carrier is rdering 200 electric air taxis, als called eVOTL planes, frm Eve Air Mbility which designed vehicles fr shrt distance—like ging frm city centers t airprtsthat can seat fur passengers. The eVOTL planes take ff and land like helicpters.
These vehicles that are due t be delivered in 2026 can fly frm rftp t rftp. These types f vehicles are mre envirnmental than using grund transprtatin. That's because the air taxis use electric engines that have n carbn emissins (碳排放). This will reduce pllutin and nise levels by 90 percent, accrding t United Airlines and Eve Air Mbility.
"Our agreement with Eve shws ur cnfidence in the urban air mbility market and serves as anther imprtant step tward ur gal f net zer carbn emissins by 2050," said Michael Leskinen, president f United Airlines Ventures. "We'll get there nt with empty gestures, but by taking the harder path f actually reducing the emissins frm flying. " If the cmpany meets its gal f reducing its carbn ftprint t net zer, it will be the first US airline t d s.
This isn't United's first try fr envirnmental prtectin. The cmpany started using bi-fuel(生物燃料) in flights frm Ls Angeles in 2016. It was the first airline in the US t prmise t significantly use bi-fuel and this culd cut emissins by 60 percent. Frm baby steps t flying nes, this airline is wrking n its cmmitment t the envirnment. Hpefully this is just ne part f a glbal cmmitment t green the airline industry.
28．Hw des the authr intrduce the takeff and landing f eVOTL planes?
A. By prviding a lng list.B. By using experts' wrds.
C. By making a cmparisn.D. By referring t a news reprt.
29．What can we learn abut the eVOTL planes?
A. They make n nise when flying.
B. They each can hld eight passengers.
C. They are designed fr lng distances.
D. They are friendly t the envirnment.
30．What can be inferred abut United Airlines?
A. It prmises t use bi-fuel in 2050.
B. It has a pineering spirit.
C. It stpped carbn emissins in 2016.
D. It shws n interest in electric air taxis.
31．What might be the best title fr the text?
