Read the passage carefully and answer the question given below:

While the world is still debating the safety of self-driving cars, the futuristic city-state of Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), is preparing to launch an autonomous aerial taxi. Starting in July, commuters will be able to summon the world’s first passenger drone, the EHang 184, to transport them to their desired destination without having to deal with Dubai’s congested freeways.

The 142-horsepower quadcopter, which debuted at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas almost a year ago, in January 2016, weighs 440 pounds and can fly at heights of up to 11,500 feet. Powered by eight propellers, the four-legged, egg-shaped vehicle has room for a single passenger weighing up to 220 pounds and a small suitcase. Though the aerial taxi can reach speeds of up to 100 mph, Dubai’s transportation officials say it will typically operate at about 62 mph.

Riders can ask for the flying taxi to pick them up from designated zones using the company’s smartphone app. When the drone arrives, he/she straps into the race-car-style seat, selects one of the pre-programmed destinations on the touch screen, and sits back and enjoys the flight. To ensure the passenger’s safety, all flights are monitored remotely by a control room on the ground.

In the unlikely event that any of the components malfunction or disconnect, the EHang 184 will make an emergency landing in the closest possible area to ensure the customer’s safety. The drone is also programmed to conduct complex calculations to ensure its route won’t collide with that of another drone. While having no control over the remotely piloted vehicle may appear scary, the manufacturer, China-based EHang, says, “It is the safest, smartest and eco-friendly low altitude autonomous aerial vehicle.” The only drawback, The EHang 184 has a battery life of 30 minutes and a flight range of just 31 miles, which means that those with longer commutes are out of luck. Also unknown, is the cost of each ride.

26) Question: Which of the following is FALSE about EHang 184?

A) It has a battery life of more than half an hour

B) It was first showcased in Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas

C) It weighs 440 pounds

D) It can fly at heights of up to 11,500 feet

27) Question: Which one of the following options is the antonym of the underlined word ‘congested’?

A) Unblocked

B) Massed

C) Crowded

D) Jam packed

28) Question: Who is most eligible to ride EHang 184?

A) Two people who are less than 220 pounds

B) A single passenger a luggage which combined weighs 220 pounds

C) There is no mention of this information

D) One person who is less than 220 pounds with a small suitcase

29) Question: The best title for the passage could be:

A) EHang 184: An Ariel Taxi

B) The futuristic city-state of Dubai

C) Dubai’s transportation system

D) A flying taxi at your doorstep

30) Question: The step-by-best procedure to ride EHang 184:

I) Sit back and enjoy the ride

II) Select one of the pre-programmed destinations on the touch screen

III) Use the company’s smartphone app and ask for the flying taxi to pick them up from designated zones

IV) Strap oneself into the race-car-style seat
