Question

You’re sitting in the car, stuck(無(wú)法離開(kāi)的) in traffic. You’re going to be late for school! If only the car could lift(升起) up and fly all the way to the school gate. Well, now you can realize(實(shí)現(xiàn)) your wish .
Engineers from the UK built a flying car, called the SkyRunner. This special vehicle(車輛) can reach 185km per hour on the road as a normal(正常的) car, and then fly in the sky at 90km per hour. As the car takes off the ground, a parachute (降落傘) at the back shoots(發(fā)射) up and begins lifting the car. Now you’re ready to fly! It lets you fly as high as 4,572 meters! Worried about the planes in the sky? Don’t worry, planes usually fly between about 9,000-15,000 meters in the sky, much higher than the car.
“This vehicle will change the way people experience their world and offer fun of flight,” said Stewart Hamel, inventor of the SkyRunner.
What’s more, because the controls（操縱） are so easy, anyone with a driving license（駕照） can fly the SkyRunner, only they finish 12 hours of flying lessons. But how do you get down safely from 4,572 meters? The flying car works like a normal parachute. Once you want to get down, just release（放開(kāi)） your foot from the accelerator (加速器). Then it will safely float（漂浮） back down to earth with a smooth（平穩(wěn)的） landing.
People will finally be able to fly this car next year, at a cost of 75,000 pounds (731,000 yuan). Wouldn’t this be a cool way to meet your friends at the school gate?
