A symphony of roaring engines fills the air as the red lights vanish, propelling the Formula 1 cars into a furious rush. The competition on the track is fierce, but the battle for a seat on the grid begins long before the first race. Below Formula 1 are several series designed to nurture talent and prepare drivers for the ultimate challenge.
Formula 1 (F1)
Formula 1, often abbreviated as F1, is the most historic and prestigious form of motorsport, with its origins dating back to the first Grand Prix in 1946. Each team in F1 is responsible for designing its own chassis, which forms the car’s structural base. Although teams do not manufacture their own engines, they can select from four suppliers. Notably, all teams must use tires from a single, exclusive manufacturer, but they can opt for different compounds depending on their needs.
Formula 2 (F2) & Formula 3 (F3)
F2 and F3, serving as vital stepping stones to F1, focus on drivers’ talent by ensuring all teams use identical chassis, engines, and tires. This standardization offers a platform for drivers to exhibit their skills.
F2 features longer races and more complex circuits, which push drivers to the limit of their physical and mental capabilities. In contrast, F3’s less demanding entry into single-seater racing enables young drivers to refine their abilities before advancing.
Formula 4 (F4)
F4, the entry-level series in single-seater racing, is cost-effective and accessible for newcomers. Launched in 2014, F4 established itself as the newest stage in Formula Racing. Unlike the other levels, it doesn’t have a global championship. Instead, individual countries host their own series. With several chassis and engine options available, F4 has an environment conducive to engineering innovation.
The climb to F1 is steep, but these foundational series provide the essential training ground for future champions.
1. Check (ü) what Formula teams can do to their vehicles.（勾选题）

(C) The length of its races is shorter than that of F2’s.
(D) Its vehicles are distinct from F2 cars in appearance.
(E) It aims to challenge drivers to their maximum potential.
(F) There are various tire options for drivers to choose from.
3. Which phrase in the passage means “supportive of” or “providing the right conditions for something good to happen”?（简答）

介绍地方副词倒装句
※ 地方副词（here、there 等）或地方副词片语（in the room、at the station、by the window 等）置于句首时，形成倒装句。
此类倒装句全部依动词的性质做变化，句型有三种：
a. 主词 + be 动词∕不及物动词 + 地方副词（片语）
→ 地方副词（片语）+ be 动词∕不及物动词 + 主词（本文即属此类）
• The book you’re looking for is on the table.
= On the table is the book you’re looking for.
你在找的那本书就在桌上。
b. 主词 + be 动词 + 过去分词 + 地方副词（片语）
→ 地方副词（片语）+ be 动词 + 过去分词 + 主词
= 过去分词 + 地方副词（片语）+ be 动词 + 主词
• A sports car was parked in front of my house.
= In front of my house was parked a sports car.
= Parked in front of my house was a sports car.
一辆跑车停在我家前面。
c. 主词 + be 动词 + 现在分词 + 地方副词（片语）
→ 地方副词（片语）+ be 动词 + 现在分词 + 主词
= 现在分词 + 地方副词（片语）+ be 动词 + 主词
• A lonely old man was sitting on the chair.
= On the chair was sitting a lonely old man.
= Sitting on the chair was a lonely old man.
一个孤独的老人坐在椅子上。
※ 此类倒装句中的主词一定是普通名词（如 a bird、my bike 等）或专有名词（如人名、国家名等）。若主词为代名词（如 it、he、they 等）则不可采倒装句；亦即地方副词仍可放在句首，但句子不倒装。至于地方副词片语则不宜放在句首。
• She sits there.
→ There sits she. (X)
→ There she sits. (O)
她就坐在那儿。
• It stands at the end of the street.
→ At the end of the street stands it. (X)
→ At the end of the street it stands. (劣)
其矗立于街道尽头。

从 F4 到 F1 赛场角逐多激昂
红灯熄灭时，空气中充满着轰隆隆的引擎交响乐，驱使一级方程式赛车疾速奔驰。赛道上的竞争激烈，但起跑线上一席之地的争夺战早在第一场比赛前就开始了。一级方程式赛车下面有几个系列赛，旨在培育人才并为车手做好准备，迎接终极挑战。
一级方程式（F1）
一级方程式赛车 ── 通常简称 F1 ── 是历史最悠久、最负盛名的赛车运动形式，起源可追溯至 1946 年第一届大奖赛。每个 F1 的团队负责设计自己车队的车身底盘（其形成了车辆结构的底座）。虽然车队不自制引擎，但可从四个供应商中进行选择。值得注意的是，所有车队都必须使用单一独家制造商的轮胎，但他们可以视自己的需求选择不同的配方（编按：指制造轮胎时所使用的各种化学材料和橡胶的混合比例，这些配方决定了轮胎的性能特征）。
二级方程式（F2）与三级方程式（F3）
作为通往 F1 的重要垫脚石，F2 和 F3 确保所有车队皆使用相同的底盘、引擎和轮胎来聚焦于车手的才华。这种统一的规格为车手提供了一个展示技能的平台。
F2 的特色为比赛时间较长，环形赛道也较为复杂，这将车手的体力和心理能力推向极限。相比之下，F3 进入单人座赛车比赛的门槛较低，可以让年轻车手在晋级之前磨练自己的能力。
四级方程式（F4）
F4 是单人座赛车比赛的入门系列赛，成本效益高、适合新手参加。F4 于 2014 年推行，确立其为方程式赛车中最新的阶段。与其他级别不同，F4 没有全球锦标赛。而是各国会举办自己的系列赛。F4 有几种底盘和引擎可供选择，有着有益于工程创新的环境。
攀登至 F1 殿堂的道路十分艰辛，但这些基础系列赛为未来冠军提供了必要的训练场地。
1. 勾选方程式车队可对自己车辆做的事。
自行设计车辆底盘 自制轮胎 必须使用相同引擎
F1 车队 ü
F2 车队 ü
2. 选出正确描述 F3 的叙述。（多选题）
(A) 其有国际锦标赛。 (B) 其为方程式赛车中最新增加的赛事。 (C) 其比赛长度比 F2 短。
(D) 其车辆外观上与 F2 截然不同。 (E) 其旨在挑战车手，使其发挥最大的潜力。 (F) 其有多种轮胎供车手选择。
答案: A、C
3. 本文中哪个片语的意思是「支持」或「为好事的发生提供适当的条件」？
答案: conducive to
