It's nthing unusual fr peple t multitask nwadays. But the ability t d a number f things at the same time culd be different between the tw sexes.
A team f UK researchers recently cmpared the perfrmances f 120 wmen and 120 men in a cmputer test abut switching(转换) between tasks f cunting and shape recgnitin.
Men equalled wmen when tasks were dne ne at a time. But when the tasks were mixed up, there was a clear difference. Accrding t the paper published in the jurnal BMC Psychlgy, bth wmen and men slwed dwn and made mre mistakes as the switching became mre rapid. But men were slwer, taking 77 percent lnger t answer, while wmen tk 69 percent lnger.
T make the experiment mre cnnected t daytday life, researchers tried a secnd test. A grup f wmen and men were given eight minutes t cmplete a series f everyday tasks, such as finding restaurants n a map, ding simple math prblems, answering a phne call, r deciding hw they wuld search fr a lst key in a field.
Once again, wmen perfrmed better than men in the test, especially in the keysearching task.
Where d wmen get the ability t keep rganized under pressure better than men? Researchers believe that it has its rigins in evlutin(进化). In ancient times, wmen had t keep an eye n children while cking meals. Meanwhile, men nly needed t fcus n hunting.
Hwever, as with all studies, the results dn't necessarily apply t every single persn in the wrld. “We dn't mean that men can't multitask, r that nly wmen can，” researcher Keith Laws f the University f Hertfrdshire, UK, tld BBC News. “We are saying that the average wman is better able t rganize her time and switch between tasks than the average man.”

B．wmen made mre mistakes than men when multitasking

D．men cmpleted a series f daily tasks mre quickly than wmen

Getting stuck in a traffic jam is ne f the mst bring prblems fr peple living in big cities. The fact that yu're mving s slwly leads t stress, anger and the wish that yur car culd just fly ver the traffic like an airplane.
Sn, hwever, that wish culd cme true. On May 8, US carrenting cmpany Uber shwed ff what it described as “the transprtatin mde f the future: ndemand air transprt，” reprted ABC News.
Accrding t Nikhill Gel, head f prducts fr Uber Air, the cmpany's air taxi service may start test flights in the US cities f Dallas and Ls Angeles, as well as Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, as early as 2020. If everything ges accrding t the plan, passengers will be able t fly t wrk by 2023.
When the Olympics cmes t Ls Angeles in 2028, Uber “expects t have hundreds, if nt thusands, f its airplanes in the skies，” Gel tld Newsweek.
S what wuld Uber's flying vehicles be like? They are small, electric airplanes that take ff and land up and dwn, they give ff zer emissins(排放) and are quiet enugh t perate in cities.
Just like an airplane, the vehicles will have fixed wings t help them glide. But while a helicpter has just ne big fixed rtr(螺旋桨), Uber's vehicles will have many rtrs, which will help increase fuel efficiency(效率) while reducing emissins and nise.
Because f these fixed wings and many rtrs, Uber's flying taxis “shuld be quieter and safer than a helicpter，” reprted ABC News.
Hwever, the service still has a lng way t g befre it's ready t accept passengers, fr example, t avid any pssible accidents. Uber is wrking with NASA t study air traffic cntrl prblems cnnected with lwflying aircraft. But just as Dubai's Mayr Betty Price said, “This prgramme is revlutinary and futureriented(面向未来的)．”
4．Uber's flying taxis are expected t start t take passengers in .
A．2020 B．2023
C．2028 D．2030
答案与解析 B 根据第三段中的“If everything ges accrding t the plan, passengers will be able t fly t wrk by 2023.”可知，优步飞行出租车预计将于2023年开始载客。B项正确。
5．Hw are Uber's flying taxis different frm helicpters?
A．They have ne big rtr.
B．They need mre fuel t fly.
C．They have fewer fixed wings.
D．They shuld be quieter and safer.
答案与解析 D 根据倒数第二段中的“Uber's flying taxis ‘shuld be quieter and safer than a helicpter，’”可知，优步飞行出租车比直升飞机噪音更小、更安全。D项正确。
6．Which is TRUE abut the flying cars accrding t the passage?
A．They nearly d n harm t the envirnment.
B．They must be in larger number a few years later.
C．They will surely help passengers avid accidents.
D．They can be as efficient as airplanes and helicpters.
答案与解析 A 根据第五段中的“they give ff zer emissins(排放) and are quiet enugh t perate in cities.”可知，优步飞行出租车可以做到零排放，几乎是无污染。A项正确。
7．What is the passage mainly abut?
A．The advantages f Uber's flying taxis.
B．Uber's plan t start the business f flying taxis.
C．Different pinins abut Uber's flying taxis.
D．The difficulties Uber is facing in testing flying vehicles.
答案与解析 B 本文主要介绍了美国优步公司最新研制的飞行出租车。B项正确。
