Car Thieves Could Be Stopped Remotely
Speeding off1 in a stolen car, the thief thinks he has got a great catch2. But he is in a nasty surprise3. The car is fitted with a remote immobilizer, and a radio signal from a control center miles away will ensure that once the thief switches the engine 1 , he will not be able to start it again.
For now, such devices 2 only available for fleets of trucks4 and specialist vehicles used on construction sites. But remote immobilization technology could soon start to trickle down to ordinary cars5, and 3 be available to ordinary cars in the UK 4 two months.
The idea goes like this. A control box fitted to the car incorporates6 5 miniature cellphone, a microprocessor and memory, and a GPS7 satellite positioning receiver. 6 the car is stolen, a coded cellphone signal will tell the unit to block the vehicle’s engine management system and prevent the engine 7 restarted.
There are even plans for immobilizers 8 shut down vehicles on the moves8, though there are fears over the safety implications of such a system.
In the UK, an array of9 technical fixes10 is already making 9 harder for car thieves. “The pattern of vehicles crime has changed.” says Martyn Randall of Thatcham, a security research organization based in Berkshire11 that is funded in part 10 the motor insurance industry.
He says it would only take him a few minutes to 11 a novice how to steal a car, using a bare minimum of tools12. But only if the car is more than 10 years old.
Modern cars are a far tougher proposition13, as their engine management computer will not 12 them to start unless they receive a unique ID code beamed out14 by the ignition key. In the UK, technologies like this 13 achieve a 31 per cent drop in vehicle-related crime15 since 1997.
But determined criminals are still managing to find other ways to steal cars. Often by getting hold of the owner’s keys in a burglary. In 2000, 12 per cent of vehicles stolen in the UK were taken by using the owner’s keys, which doubles the previous year’s figure.
Remote-controlled immobilization system would 14 a major new obstacle in the criminal’s way by making such thefts pointless. A group that includes Thatcham, the police, insurance companies and security technology firms have developed standards for a system that could go on the market sooner than the expects.

答案与题解：
1. A 该段主要是说，如果车被盗，只要发出无线电信号， remote immobilizer就能使被盗车一旦停下就无法再启动。因此，应选择 A。如选择， B switches the engine on(发动引擎 )句子意思便不符合文章内容。 C和 D与 switch不搭配。
2. D devices是复数形式，描述的也是目前的事情，所以应使用 be的现在时复数形式 are。
3. D该句说，这种遥控技术会一点一点地，但很快地用于普通汽车。然后，作者推断，在两个月后这种技术就能用于英国的汽车。 A是错误的选项，因为该句前面用了 could表示委婉的推断，在此不会用 can;B和 C与意思不符; should也是表示推断。
4. C 从搭配上来看，可以选择 B和 C，但是从意思上来看，必须选择 C。for two months：已经有两个月了; in two months：两个月后。不能选择 A，因为不符合英语表达习惯。又如： They will graduate in one year.他们一年后毕业。
5. C 这里应该使用不定冠词，而且 miniature cell phone后面的并列定语都使用不定冠词。不能选择 an，因为它后面的`名词由辅音开头。
6. B 从语法结构来看，这里应选择引导状语从句的连词，其他选项都会造成结构错误。而且， If正符合句子的意思。
7. B prevent sth. (from) doing是固定用法， restart这里要用被动语态 being restarted，所以，应选择 B。
8. C从句子的结构来看，这里需要一个关系代词引导定语从句。关系代词的先行词 immobilizers是物不是人，所以只能用 that，不能用 who。
9. A 在四个选项中， B、C和 D显然不符合文章的意思。这里作者要表达的意思是：使……日子难过，所以，应选择 A。
10. C be funded是被动语态，空格后面是名词短语，从句子的意思来判断，这个名词短语是动作 fund的执行者，是谓语动词动作逻辑上的主语，所以必须使用 by来引导这个名词短语。
11. D 这个句子结构是： to take sb. time to do sth.。从意思上判断，句子的意思应该是：他说只要花几分钟就能教会一个新手如何偷盗汽车。所以， D是答案。 use, inform和 ask 都不与 how to结构搭配。
12. B them后跟着 to，所以首先排除 A和 C (let sb. do sth. / make sb. do sth.)。句子的意思不允许选 D。… will not allow them to start …：……不允许它们启动。
13. A 句子后面的时间状语由 since引导，所以句子应该使用现在完成时。
14. D 从 obstacle in the criminal’s way这个名词短语看出，应选择 D，构成 put obstacle in somebody’s way(给某人设置障碍)这种固定用法。
15. C前面有 go on the market，预期的人应该是 customer。当然， specialists，doctor或 lawyer也可以预期，但总及不上 customer那么自然。
