As automakers work to develop practical electric vehicles, urban planners and utility engineers
are focusing on infrastructure systems to support and make the best use of the new cars. Public
charging facilities will need to be as common as today’s gas stations. Public parking spots on the
street or in commercial lots will need to be equipped with devices that allow drivers to charge their
batteries while they stop, dine, or attend a concert. To encourage the use of electric vehicles, the
most convenient parking in transportation centres might be reserved for electric cars.
Planners foresee electric shuttle buses, trains and neighbourhood vehicles all meeting at transit
centres that would have facilities for charging and renting. Commuters will be able to rent a
variety of electric cars to suit their needs: light trucks, one-person three wheelers, small cars, or
electric/gasoline hybrid cars for longer trips, which is no doubt take place on automated freeways
capable of handling five times number of vehicles that can be carried by a freeway today.

Câu 32: According to the passage, public parking lots in the future will be......
A. more convenient than they are today.

It is sure one of the most beautiful bridges in the world, and also one of the tallest (the height of a
bridge is the height of the towers ). The bridge as it is today was designed by architects Irving and
Gertrude Morrow. However thier art deco project was not the first Golden Gate Bridge. The original
plans for the bridge were drawn in 1961, but they were of a very complicated and ugly structure, certainly
not something could be ever proud of.
The bridge was a true experiment in its time, such a long suspension bridge had never been tried
before. It had the hightest towers, the thickest cables and the largest underwater foundations ever built.
The foundations were a real problem, because they had to be cast in a depth of more than 100 feet.
Extreme depth wasn't the sole problem. The real challenge lay in the sinking of the piers in the violent
waves of the open sea, which was thought to be almost impossible the construction began in 1933 and
was finished in 1937,when the bridge opened to pedestrians. ( It was opened to cars one years later ). The
bridge was finished ahead of schedule and cost much less than was estimated.Today the Golden Gate
Bridge has a main span of 4,200 feet ( almost a mile ) and a total length of 8,981 feet. The towers
supporting the huge cables rise 746 feet above the water. Each steel cable is 7,650 long and has a
diameter of 36 inches.
''International orange '' is the color the bridge has always been painted. The architects chose it
because it blends well with the span's natural setting. However, if the Navy had had its way, the bridge
would have been painted black with yellow stripes-in favor of greater visibility for passing ships. There
are fog horns to let passing ships know where the bridge is, and aircraf beacon on the tops of the towers
to prevent planes from crashing into them.
