BJohn Ruskin once said, “A little thought and a little kindness are often worth more than a great deal of money.” This quote quite appropriately sums up a beautiful moment I witnessed recently. I was on m

9、y way home after a busy day, and because my phone had died, I happened to be people-watching instead of checking my phone while waiting at the bus stop near the railway station.An old man selling unbranded soaps was sitting on the crowded pavement across the road. He looked poor and weak and I was m

10、oved by his conditionperhaps he was the only one supporting his family? But I soon shook off the sadnessTheres nothing I can really do for him. Its up to the authorities to ensure that such senior citizens do not have to work like this, I thought.A few passers-by bought soaps from him while others o

11、nly made small talk. Just then, a lady walked up to the old man and bought every bar of soap he was carrying. She paid him the full amount and walked away. Delighted that he had sold all his goods, the old mans eyes shone brightly and he smiled ear to ear. The woman, on the other hand, crossed the r

12、oad, placed the bag full of soap on the street and then joined the queue to board the bus, which had just pulled up. The curious incident puzzled me.The woman happened to get on the same bus as I did and took the seat next to mine. I couldnt help but ask her about the strange act.“Hello, if you dont

13、 mind, can I ask you a question?” I said.She looked at me and nodded. “Why did you leave all the soap bars near the bus stop?”“Oh, I felt bad at his difficult situation and offered him some money but he refused. He said he couldnt accept money for nothing in return. He wanted to earn it through hard

14、 work and not pity. So I bought all his soap bars to help him in a way that preserves his dignity. I left them on the road so he can sell them again, but I know he wouldnt do that.” I reached home feeling a lightness and hope that humanity is not lost after all.24.

Autonomous car technology is already being developed by the likes of Lexus, BMW and Mercedes, and weve even

18、 tested Teslas driverless Autopilot system on UK roads. Across the Atlantic, Google is developing its automated technology in the wild, and Apple is rumored to be working with BMW on its own-probably automated-car.Fully-driverless tech is still at an advanced testing stage, but partially automated t

19、echnology has been around for the last few years. Executive saloons like the BMW 7 Series feature automated parking, and can even be controlled remotely.With so much investment and interest in driverless technology, its easy to assume that self-operating cars are likely to happen soon, but theyre mu

20、ch further away than we might think. Before driverless vehicles go to market widely, manufacturers must deal with a range of technical and ethical challenges, and prevent the biggest threat to autonomous technology: humans.The human problemHumans present problems for autonomous cars as both drivers

21、and pedestrians, and dealing with our unpredictable behaviour represents a significant challenge for the technology.The Google Car is one of the most experienced autonomous vehicles. Even so, its interaction with human drivers has given rise to the exposure of one of driverless cars main weaknesses.

22、 The first injury involving the Google Car wasnt due to a fault in its system, but human-error. While correctly waiting at traffic lights, Googles self-driving car was hit by an inattentive driver and, in spite of its sophisticated array (一系列精密复杂的) of sensors, there was little it could do to avoid t

23、he incident. Dealing with pedestriansAutonomous cars need to understand the way pedestrians behave, while also imitating the behaviour theyd expect from a human driver. “Everyone has an appreciation of how a human being is going to react, because we are all human beings,” says computer ethics commen

24、tator（伦理学评论员） Ben Byford. “So if you walk out in front of a car, and probably the car driver knows youre there, theyre going to react in a certain way.”“If I walked out in front of a Google car travelling at 60mph, I have no real appreciation of how the vehicle will behave, so Im effectively putting

25、 myself at a disadvantage.”28. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs about autonomous car development?A. Driverless cars have become a reality.B. Fully-driverless cars have been around.C. Driverless technology attracts interest of car makers.D. Driverless cars can be remotely controlled.29

26、. What is the biggest threat to autonomous technology?A. Driverless vehicles. B. Humans. C. Human drivers. D. Autonomous cars. 30.

27、To show human drivers were careless.D. To show human road users might put driverless vehicles in danger.31. How should autonomous cars interact with pedestrians?A. They should get away from pedestrians.B. They should understand human beings.C. They should understand the behavior of pedestrians and h

28、uman drivers.D. They should travel at 60 mph and adjust their behavior quickly.DOccasional human breaking in wilderness areas causes far greater changes in animal behaviour than previously thought, a study has found. So-called “episodic（不定期的）” activity, such as driving off-road, hunting or military

29、operation but also aircraft noise, led to average increases in animal movement of up to 70 per cent, according to research published in Nature Ecology and Evolution. The study said that a “global restructuring” of wildlife was under way as a result, with effects for ecosystems that were potentially

30、far-reaching. It concluded that the occasional presence of humans has a greater immediate impact on animal behavior than permanent habitat loss, as animals sought to flee or avoid humans, or travelled further to find food or mates.The activity of species which tend to react to increased human activi

31、ty by hiding or decreasing their movement declined on average by 37 per cent.To measure the effect of episodic human activity on wildlife, the researchers analyzed more than 200 studies on 167 animal species, ranging from butterflies to great white sharks, spending nearly 40 years. In more than one

32、third of them, animals were forced into changes that increased their movement by more than half. “What this is telling us, is that across the globe, theres huge potential for the things that humans do to change animal movements, whether thats animals moving more, or moving less,” Dr Tim Doherty, a University of Sydney wildlife ecologist who led the study, told The Times.Researche
