阅读理解。 As a computer exhibition Bill gates reportedly compared the computer industry with the auto industry and stated: 'If GM had kept up with technology like computer industry has, we would all be driving twenty-five dollar cars that got 1000 miles to the gallon.' In response to Bill's comments, General Motors announced a news release stating: if GM had developed technology like Microsoft, we would be driving cars with the following characteristics: For no reason your car would crash twice a day. Every time they repaired the lines on the road you would have to buy a new car. Sometimes your car would die on the free way for no reason and you would just accept this, restart and drive on. Only one person at a time could use the car, unless you bought 'Car95' or Car NT'. But then you would have to buy more seats. If you try to get your car to a mechanic, you'd make a long distance call, be put on hold for three or four hours, when you finally got the mechanic, you'd be told how to fix it yourself, and mechanic would hang up before you even tried his or her suggestions. People would get excited about the ' new' features in Microsoft cars, forgetting completely they had been available in other cars for many years. The airbag system would say: 'Are you sure?' before going off. Every time GM introduced a new model car, buyers would have to learn how to drive all over again because none of the controls would operate in the same manner as the old car. Microsoft cars would have a special radio/cassette player which would only be able to listen to Microsoft FM, and play Microsoft Cassettes. If you couldn't afford to buy a new car, then you could just borrow your friends and then copy it. You'd press the 'start' button to shut off the engine. 1. The purpose of writing this article is ______. A. to state the advantages of Microsoft in making cars B  to inform that Microsoft will make cars in the future. C. To compare cars made by GM with those made by Microsoft D. To make fun of the disadvantages of Microsoft's products 2. It can be inferred from the passage that the airbag system of the new car _____. A. would be safer than the old one B. would become useless in case of an accident C. would not surprise the driver by going off suddenly D. would remind the driver of the danger ahead of time 3. What does the writer really mean by saying 'You'd press the 'start' button to shut off the engine'? A. The design of Microsoft is very funny and strange. B. It is better to control the engine like a computer. C. The engine control system requires to be improved. D. It is impossible to shut off the engine by pre ssing the 'start' button.[ 4. The best title of this passage would be ______. A. Characteristics of the New Cars B. GM Should Learn from Microsoft C. If Microsoft Built Cars D. New Cars to be Made in the future
