If cars had wings, they could fly and that just might happen, beginning in 2011. The company Terrafugia, based in Woburn, Massachusetts, says it plans to make such a car-plane called "Transition", to customers (顾客)by the end of 2018. "It's the next 'wow' vehicle," said Terrafugia president Richard Gersh. "Anybody can buy a Ferrari, but as we say, Ferraris don't fly."
The car-plane has wings that unfold for flying―a process the company says takes one minute, and fold back up for driving. A runway is still needed to take off and land.
The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft rules, and with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety rules.
The company is to sell the Transition to private pilots as an easier and cheaper way to fly. They say it saves you the trouble from trying to and another mode of transportation to get to and from airports: You drive the car to the airport and then you're good to go. When you land, you fold up the wings and hit the road. There are no expensive parking fees because you don't have to store it at an airport―you leave it in the car park at home.
The car-plane is designed to fly under 10,000 feet. It has a maximum take-off weight of 1,430 pounds, including fuel and passengers.
The Transition's price tag: $194,000. But there may be something else you need to pay, like a radio, transponder or GPS and so on.
So far, the company has more than 70 orders. "We're working very closely with them, but there are still some remaining steps," Brown said.

Malaria (疟疾) has been a deadly problem for humans since ancient times. Usually, people get malaria when infected mosquitoes bite them. Countless people have died from it. Chinese scientist Tu Youyou found an effective drug called qinghaosu (青蒿素).
This year marks the 50th anniversary of Tu’s discovery. In 1969, Tu became the director of a national project to develop a drug against malaria. Her team took a unique approach. They went back to books about classical Chinese medicine. After reading more than 2, 000 old remedies (药方), Tu and her team collected over 600 plants and listed almost 380 possible remedies for malaria.
One remedy, which is 1, 600 years old, uses the sweet wormwood (青蒿) plant to treat malaria. Tu found it effective and tried to extract (提取) the qinghaosu from it in order to make drugs. The extraction failed at first, so Tu returned to the classical books again and finally found a way. She used a low-temperature method to extract the qinghaosu and succeeded in 1972.
After her team showed that qinghaosu could treat malaria in mice and monkeys, Tu and two of her colleagues volunteered to test the drug on themselves before testing on human patients. It turned out that qinghaosu was safe. All patients in the tests recovered. Gradually, qinghaosu became the first-line treatment for malaria recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO), saving millions of lives in China and other countries throughout the world.
In 2015, when Tu was awarded with the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine, she refused to take all of the credit (荣誉). Instead, she praised her colleagues and Chinese traditional medicine. She once proudly said, “Every scientist dreams of doing something that can help the world.”
( )6. According to the passage, to find an effective drug called qinghaosu is ________.
A. impossible B. uneasy C. unexpected D. complicated
( )7. What do we know about the “qinghaosu”
A. It is extracted from the sweet wormwood plant at room-temperature.
B. TuYouyou and her team spent three years finding it out.
C. Tu and all her teammates volunteered to test it on themselves.
D. It has saved millions of lives around the world.
( )8. The underlined word “approach” in paragraph 2 probably means ________.
A. idea B. way C. discussion D. drug
( )9. We can find that Tu Youyou ________.
A. took all the credit by herself
B. did a lot and never gave up
C. succeeded in curing malaria by accident
D. won the Nobel Prize shortly after the success
