This is a world first bolt-on application for anything with wheels." Liddiard wrote in the description of a You Tube video he uploaded to show how his invention works on an old Toyota Echo. "They are stronger, faster, and more accurately controlled than previous technology. They can take a beating. The tires can have the same build characteristics (siping, grooves, rubber compounds etc.) as regular tires. Now you can drive in all directions, and tum on the spot, when needed."‎ While the "Liddiard Wheels" shown in the video are just proof of concept prototypes(原型机), they seem to work as described by the inventor. His car can be seen spinning in place and sliding from one side to the other as the tires move under the power of 24,000 pounds of torque (扭矩) applied directly to them.‎ William is now hoping that the power of social media will help him get his invention out there and eventually team up with a company willing to help him improve the wheels and eventually bring them to the market.‎ ‎" Will a set of wheels make sideward parking an easy thing? Yeah, I’m pretty sure these things will be in high demand if they ever end up on the market." the inventor said confidently.‎ ‎12. What does the underlined word "bolted" in Paragraph I mean?‎ A. Changed.‎ B. Loaded.‎ C. Designed.‎ D. Fastened.‎ ‎13. What do the newly-invented and the traditional wheels have in common?‎ A. They use the same tires.‎ B. They have the same structure.‎ C. They are made in the same way.‎ D. They are accurately controlled.‎ ‎14. Why did the inventor post the information of his invention online?‎ A. To explain its advantages.‎ B. To seek a cooperator for it.‎ C. To challenge traditional wheels.‎ D. To show off his great achievements.‎ ‎15. What did the inventor think of his wheels?‎ A. Interesting.‎ B. Convenient.‎ C. Promising.‎ D. Priceless.‎ ‎【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C ‎【解析】全方位轮往往适用于像铲车这样的多用途运载车。如今，一位伦敦发明家William Liddiard把这种轮子改造了一番，突破了特种车辆的局限性，使其在任何一辆车上都通用。无论是360度打转，亦或横向平移，均能轻松停靠任何方向。‎ ‎12. 词义猜测题。根据London-based inventor William Liddiard has created a special set of all-around wheels that can be bolted on to any car, allowing it to move in any direction, spin 360 degrees and slide into a parallel park with ease.得知一位伦敦发明家William Liddiard发明的全方位车轮可以被系在任何车辆上，使其在任何一辆车上都通用。故选D。‎ ‎13. 推理判断题。根据"Unlike other all-around capable wheels, my wheels do not require the vehicle to be built around them.

But we know it isn't a quick fix.___17___.‎ Many of us have watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11.___18___But to get there. those astronauts had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, than was used over the next several days to travel half million miles.‎ ‎___19___Getting rid of bad habits really requires great willpower and some changes in our lives. lift-off takes tremendous effort, but once we break out of the pull of gravity, we can enjoy great freedom.‎ Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go.
