同学们好，欢迎来到今天的雅培PTE得分点系列，我们今天来看一篇Summarize Written Text的高频文章《plug-in vehicle》.

这篇文章是一篇典型的说明文，主要介绍了plug-in vehicle-即电能车-的优点和功能，所以同学们在概括的时候也需要紧扣这个原则来概括。

好了，那让我们先看看这篇文章吧：（看过文章的同学们可以直接跳到后面解析部分）

Here’s a term you’re going to hear much more often: plug-in vehicle, and the acronym PEV. It’s what you and many other people will drive to work in, ten years and more from now. At that time, before you drive off in the morning you will first unplug your car – your plugin vehicle. Its big on board batteries will have been fully charged overnight, with enough power for you to drive 50-100 kilometers through city traffic.

When you arrive at work you’ll plug in your car once again, this time into a socket that allows power to flow from your car’s batteries to the electricity grid. One of the things you did when you bought your car was to sign a contract with your favorite electricity supplier, allowing them to draw a limited amount of power from your car’s batteries should they need to, perhaps because of a blackout, or very high wholesale spot power prices. The price you get for the power the distributor buys from your car would not only be most attractive to you, it would be a good deal for them too, their alternative being very expensive power form peaking stations. If, driving home or for some other reason your batteries looked like running flat, a relatively small, but quiet and efficient engine running on petrol, diesel or compressed natural gas, even bio-fuel, would automatically cut in, driving a generator that supplied the batteries so you could complete your journey.

Concerns over ‘peak oil’, increasing greenhouse gas emissions, and the likelihood that by the middle of this century there could be five times as many motor vehicles registered worldwide as there are now, mean that the world’s almost total dependence on petroleum-based fuels for transport is, in every sense of the word, unsustainable.

那么，按照我们刚才说的说明文题材，我们主要需要找的为plug-in vehicle的说明信息（i.e. 功能，优缺点等），所以需要概括的点如下：

* 红色为重要信息

说明1：功能 - 充满电可以跑50-100km

Its big on board batteries will have been fully charged overnight, with enough power for you to drive 50-100 kilometers through city traffic.

说明2：功能 - 可以反哺供应商电

allowing them（注意代词哦：your favorite electricity supplier） to draw a limited amount of power from your car’s batteries

说明3：功能 - 没电的时候有备用引擎

If, driving home or for some other reason your batteries looked like running flat, a relatively small, but quiet and efficient engine running on petrol, diesel or compressed natural gas, even bio-fuel, would automatically cut in, driving a generator that supplied the batteries so you could complete your journey.

说明4：优点 -（这个比较隐晦）更加sustainable

the world’s almost total dependence on petroleum-based fuels for transport is, in every sense of the word, unsustainable.

因为这4个点都为对plug-in vehicle的修饰与限定，而均为并列关系。所以我们可以考虑使用定语从句【which that who】来进行合并作答

参考答案：

In a world in which total dependence on petroleum-based fuels for transport is unsustainable, plugin vehicle, which have enough power to drive 50-100 kilometers through city traffic with full charge, allow electricity supplier to draw a limited amount of power from your car’s batteries, and plugin vehicle has a backup engine to complete journey when batteries are running flat.

最后留个小问题：有同学会在plugin vehicle has a backup engine to complete journey when batteries are running flat.这句话后继续添加while从句合并点，但是在这里是不能这样写的，同学们知道为什么吗？
