To fight a noise by making more noise sounds strange ,but that's exactly what motor engineers are doing in Germany and some other countries.
Car makers' research and development laboratories have already proved that mixing more noise with the help of loudspeakers can reduce the unwanted noisE.
Physicists have known about the technique for a long timE.Sound is made up of pressure waves in the air. If two sound waves of the same frequency(频率) mix so that the highest point of one wave happens at the same time as the lowest point of the other wave, the result is no sounD.Therefore ,by producing a perfect copy of the noise and delaying it by half a wave cycle(周期), we can kill the unwanted noisE.Using this technique many carmakers are racing to develop noise-killing systems(系统)both inside and outside the cars.
Another good thing about the use of noise-killing systems is that it saves the need for a silencer; this not only reduces the weight of a car, but also makes the motor burn less fuel and work better.
Some engineers believe that the noise-killing system will be used in most cars within a few years. But the carmakers haven't decided if they will carry it into production because it would add several hundred dollars to the cost of their cars.
Which of the following gives a general idea of how the noise-killing system works?
A.By producing pressure waves going in the opposite direction.
B.By mixing high frequency sound waves with low frequency sound waves.
C.By mixing new sound waves with the noise and sending them out together.
D.By making copies of the unwanted sound waves and letting them out a little later.

未知题型 'How far is it to the next village?' the American asks a man sitting by the side of the roaD.In some countries, because the man realizes that the traveler is tired and eager to get to his destination (目的地), he will politely say 'Just down the roaD.'He thinks this is more encouraging, gender, and therefore the wanted answer. So the American drives through the night, getting more and more angry, feeling 'tricked'. He thinks the man deliberately(故意地) cheated him, for obviously he must have known the distance quite well.Had conditions been reversed (颠倒过来), the American would have felt he was' cheating' the driver if he had said the next town was close when he knew it was really 15 miles further on. Though, he, too, would be sympathetic ( 同情的 ) to the weary driver, he would say' You have a good way to go yet; it is at least 15 miles. 'The driver might be disappointed, but he would know what to expect.Whether to be accurate (准确的)or polite leads to many misunderstandings between people of different cultures. If you are aware of the situation in advance, it is sometimes easier to recognize the problem.The man at the roadside tells the American it is close to the next village because____________.A.he is playing a trick on himB.the American expects the answerC.he doesn't know the exact distance at allD.he wants to encourage him to go further
