第8题，共35题
Why should you not pump air brakes during a normal stop?
- Pumping wastes air and lowers system pressure
- It is the only way to stop
- It locks the steering
- It makes the brakes too hot to touch
显示答案
答案: A. Pumping wastes air and lowers system pressure
Apply steady pressure and ease off as you slow. Pumping uses up air.
第9题，共35题
You are about to descend a hill and the air pressure is dropping abnormally. What should you do?
- Do not go down the hill until the problem is fixed
- Go down quickly before the pressure is gone
- Shift to neutral and coast down slowly
- Use only the trailer hand valve on the way down
显示答案
答案: A. Do not go down the hill until the problem is fixed
Test your brakes before descending, and do not proceed if air pressure drops abnormally.
第10题，共35题
Why should you not hold a combination on a hill with only the trailer hand valve?
- It drains the fuel tank and stalls the engine
- It is the safest way to hold a combination
- It turns off the trailer lights and the horn
- The trailer brakes can leak off, and using them alone risks a jackknife
显示答案
答案: D. The trailer brakes can leak off, and using them alone risks a jackknife
Do not rely on the trailer hand valve alone. Use the spring brakes to park.
第11题，共35题
This diagram shows an air brake system. What drives the air compressor?
- The engine
- The brake pedal
- The trailer wheels
- A hand pump
显示答案
答案: A. The engine
The compressor is driven by the engine and pumps air into the storage tanks.
第12题，共35题
Which part tells the compressor when to start and stop pumping air?
- The foot valve
- The governor
- The slack adjuster
- The brake drum
显示答案
答案: B. The governor
The governor senses tank pressure and controls the compressor's cut-in and cut-out.
第13题，共35题
Why do air tanks have drain valves?
- To check the tire pressure at each wheel
- To release the parking brakes by hand
- To let fresh air into the tanks
- To remove water and oil that collect in the tanks
显示答案
答案: D. To remove water and oil that collect in the tanks
Compressed air leaves water and oil in the tanks. Drain them so they do not freeze or damage valves.
第14题，共35题
What happens when you press the brake pedal (foot valve) in an air brake system?
- Air is sent to the brake chambers, which apply the brakes
- The spring brakes release so the wheels can turn
- The compressor stops and the tanks are sealed
- Air is released from the tires to slow the wheels
显示答案
答案: A. Air is sent to the brake chambers, which apply the brakes
The foot valve sends air from the tanks to the brake chambers, which push the rods that apply the brakes.
第15题，共35题
What does the slack adjuster do?
- It dries the air before it reaches the tanks
- It turns the brake camshaft when the push rod moves
- It measures the air pressure in the tanks
- It holds the trailer to the tractor
显示答案
答案: B. It turns the brake camshaft when the push rod moves
The push rod moves the slack adjuster, which turns the camshaft and forces the shoes against the drum.
第16题，共35题
In an S-cam brake, what forces the brake shoes against the drum?
- A hydraulic cylinder
- Magnets
- The driver's leg strength
- The S-shaped cam turning
显示答案
答案: D. The S-shaped cam turning
When the camshaft turns, the S-cam spreads the shoes against the drum.
第17题，共35题
What does the safety valve do?
- Applies the brakes when you go too fast
- Releases air if tank pressure gets too high
- Removes water and oil from the tanks
- Stops the engine if the air gets too hot
显示答案
答案: B. Releases air if tank pressure gets too high
The safety valve protects the tanks from too much pressure by letting air out.
第18题，共35题
What is the main safety feature of spring brakes?
- They only work at high speed on highways
- They apply automatically if air pressure is lost
- They replace the service brakes when driving
- They need extra air pressure to apply
显示答案
答案: B. They apply automatically if air pressure is lost
Air holds spring brakes off. If pressure is lost, the springs apply the brakes.
第19题，共35题
How should you park an air-brake vehicle?
- Apply the spring (parking) brakes
- Put a brick on the brake pedal
- Hold the service brakes with the trailer hand valve
- Leave it in gear only
显示答案
答案: A. Apply the spring (parking) brakes
Use the spring brakes to park. Service brakes rely on air, which can leak away.
第20题，共35题
What is the advantage of a dual air brake system?
- If one circuit fails, the other can still stop you
- It never needs a pre-trip inspection
- It lets you drive at a higher top speed
- It does not need an air compressor
显示答案
答案: A. If one circuit fails, the other can still stop you
A dual system has two separate circuits, so a failure in one still leaves braking from the other.
第21题，共35题
Which colour is usually used for the emergency (supply) air line between tractor and trailer?
- Red
- Yellow
- Blue
- Green
显示答案
答案: A. Red
The emergency or supply line is usually red and the service line is blue.
第22题，共35题
What does the tractor protection valve do?
- Controls the headlights and trailer lights
- Protects the tractor's air if the trailer lines break
- Locks the fifth wheel jaws around the kingpin
- Measures the trailer's weight on each axle
显示答案
答案: B. Protects the tractor's air if the trailer lines break
It closes off the trailer lines so the tractor keeps its air if the trailer breaks away.
第23题，共35题
What does a low air pressure warning tell you?
- The compressor is working normally
- The air tanks are completely full
- Pressure is dropping and you are losing braking ability
- The tires need more air in them
显示答案
答案: C. Pressure is dropping and you are losing braking ability
The warning means pressure is low. Stop safely and find the cause before the spring brakes apply.
第24题，共35题
What happens to stopping distance when you double your speed?
- It becomes about half as long
- It about doubles
- It stays about the same
- It becomes about four times as long
显示答案
答案: D. It becomes about four times as long
Stopping distance grows with the square of speed, so doubling speed makes it about four times as long.
第25题，共35题
Your brakes get very hot on a long hill and stop working as well. What is this called?
- Brake creep
- Brake fade
- Brake lock
- Brake lag
显示答案
答案: B. Brake fade
Overheated brakes lose effectiveness. Use a low gear and engine braking on long grades.
第26题，共35题
What is the best way to check whether a brake is out of adjustment?
- Feel the tire temperature after a trip
- Look at the paint on the brake drum
- Listen to the brake while driving slowly
- Measure the push rod stroke with the brakes applied
显示答案
答案: D. Measure the push rod stroke with the brakes applied
Brake adjustment is checked by measuring push rod stroke with a full brake application.
第27题，共35题
Why is moisture in the air system a problem?
- It makes the brakes grab too strongly
- It cools the compressor too much in summer
- It can freeze and block lines and valves
- It is not a problem in a modern system
显示答案
答案: C. It can freeze and block lines and valves
Water can freeze and stop valves or lines from working. Drain tanks and use the air dryer.
第28题，共35题
Brake lag means the brakes on an air-brake vehicle take time to apply. What does this mean for following distance?
- You can follow more closely
- Following distance does not matter
- You should brake later
- You need more space ahead than a car does
显示答案
答案: D. You need more space ahead than a car does
Air brake lag adds to your stopping distance, so leave a bigger gap.
第29题，共35题
Your spring brakes apply suddenly while you are driving. What is the most likely cause?
- A serious loss of air pressure
- The trailer is empty and light
- The engine is still too cold
- The governor has cut out normally
显示答案
答案: A. A serious loss of air pressure
Spring brakes come on when system pressure drops too low.
第30题，共35题
Before starting the air brake test, how should the vehicle be secured?
- Release all brakes
- Leave it in neutral without chocks
- Park on a hill facing down
- Park on level ground and chock the wheels
显示答案
答案: D. Park on level ground and chock the wheels
Secure the vehicle with wheel chocks on level ground before testing the brakes.
