11、r manufacturers to safely test their autonomous cars.While Mcity can be used to simulate（模拟）many real-life road conditions，it cant help test gestures drivers use to communicate their intention（意图）to other drivers，pedestrians or cyclists. To find a solution，US car manufacturer Ford，with researchers f

12、rom Virginia Tech，at the beginning considered using text as a way to communicate the cars intention，but decided it would probably not work universally. The option of using symbols was also rejected，because research shows that a majority of people do not have a good understanding of what they mean.Fi

13、nally, the researchers settled on light signals. A white light warned that there were no humans in the car. A slow blinking one indicated that the car was coming to a stop, while a rapidly flashing light cautioned passersby that the car was about to speed up.Then came the big challengetesting the si

14、gnals on real roads. We needed to try out this new lighting to communicate the intention of the vehicle, but if youve got a driver behind the seat, you still have natural communication between humans, said Andy Shaudt, who led the research team. So we needed to make it look like a driverless car.The

15、 team designed a car seat costume（戏装）that the driver would wear to cover his or her face and upper body. Of course，the drivers could see very clearly. The researchers then equipped the car with cameras to capture human reactions to a light bar，which flashed one of the three signals when appropriate.

16、 Six drivers，all keeping their hands low on the wheel so as not to be noticed，took turns to test driving the car through the busy streets.The overall reaction to the flashing lights was very encouraging. Who knew costumes could be useful for more than Halloween？1、What did the team first consider usi

However, shopp

19、ers are still laying stress on environmental concerns.Two thirds of customers say that environmental considerations inform their purchases to the same degree as they did a year ago, while more than a quarter say that they are now even better aware of the environmental effect on what they buy.This ma

20、y help to influence how shops store goods on their shelves. And the companies should still make efforts to become more environmentally friendly. Two out of three people think it is important to buy from environmentally responsible companies, with about one in seven saying that they had even decided

21、to take their custom elsewhere if they felt a companys environmental reputation was not good enough.Harry Morrison, chief executive (主管) of the Carbon Trust, sympathizes: “I understand this situation where survival is very important now. But from environmental considerations, the clock is tickingwe

22、dont have much time. In addition, cutting carbon has an immediate effect as costs drop and a medium-term benefit for the brand.”Larger companies have an extra motivation to look at reducing their carbon footprint, as new rules next year will require businesses to buy carbon allowances to make up for

23、 their emissions (排放). Those that have taken early action will have a head start. More than two thirds of consumers are not clear about which companies are environmentally responsible. This suggests that firms that are able to relay clearly their message to the public will be in a pole position to a

24、ttract shoppers.The Carbon Trust believes that it can help by informing customers about the good work companies are doing. “When companies are granted (授予) the standard, they can use a logo (标识) in all their marketing which makes it clear that they are working towards cutting emissions,” Mr. Morriso

28、ecial areas that offer shoppers their first chance to experience “VR technology”. You may have entered one out of curiosity, or you may think it is just another piece of useless technology. Whatever your opinion, VR, or virtual(虚拟的)reality, is going to become a big part of our lives very soon.2016 s

29、aw the introduction of many fancy products in the world of VR, including Microsofts HoloLens and Samsungs Gear VR. All of them offer an exciting look at the new realities” and opportunities that VR brings.These, however, are the early days of a technology that is expected to go from strength to stre

30、ngth. And 2017 looks like it is going to be the year in which VR technology really takes off.For a start, using VR will become more normal in 2017. Microsoft and Intel have already discussed their plans for simpler and less expensive VR headsets.The idea of VR will stop being a sci-fi (science-ficti

31、on) idea, and instead it will turn into an industry of real products used as ways to show off imagination.” said Andrew, a designer at US VR Company, Survios.It is also expected that VR products will play a part in more common and real-life fields like fashion and film. For example, to enjoy the atm

32、osphere and energy of the front row experience at a fashion show, fans will no longer have to go along in the flesh. Instead people will be able to enjoy the experience by just wearing a VR headset at home.You can also expect VR mirrors and fitting-rooms sooner rather than later. This is an especial

33、ly good opportunity for brands looking to offer very personalized experiences. said Roy DeYoung from US-based marketing agency, PMX.As time goes on, there will be less discussion about whether people will accept VR technology. It will simply be a discussion of when.1、Why do many shopping malls have

36、eets our Life Goal24（8分）For the kids who have just started to read, choosing the right books is essential and their parents should be there to help them.A proper book classification system would be of great help in this regard, since most parents do not know which books suit their childrens reading

37、levels the most. An effective classification system for childrens books would help overcome this problem.Chinese bookstores, online or offline, still prefer to use age rather than reading ability to categorize what they sell. In fact, reading ability and interests vary from child to child even when

38、they are at the same age. This early form of classification is accepted by most bookstores and publishers, yet many young readers get books that are nowhere near their targeted reading levels.China has at least 200 million children under the age of 14, and their enthusiasm for reading has increased

39、over the years. The publishers of childrens books should try to introduce a juvenile-centered classification system to help their readers choose books that are suitable for their reading abilities.Some dont trust the call for more effective book classification, mentioning the need for youngsters to

40、read extensively and avoid restricting themselves to one or two categories. There is a strong case for resisting selective reading, but not book classification, which is designed to help young children develop good reading habits and hold onto them in the long run.Studies have found that kids are le

41、ss likely to be into reading if they have not developed such a habit before the age of 10. That said, it is in their best interests to adopt targeted reading during childhood, as this can greatly improve their comprehension abilities. So greater efforts should be put into designing a book classifica

42、tion system that meets the needs of young readers.1、A proper book classification system should _.Abe on an age basisBlimit readers to one or two categoriesChelp readers get books suitable for their reading levelsDbenefit all the bookstores and publishers2、What does the underlined word “them” in Para

DReading habits.3、What do we know from Paragraph 5?AThere is a strong case for resisting book classification.BEveryone doesnt support a more effective book classification.CYoungsters should be restricted to a few categories of books.DYou

44、ngsters dont need to read extensively.4、Whats the authors attitude towards the current book classification system?ADissatisfied. BAmbiguous.CSupportive. DUnconcerned.25（10分）As a manager,you want to help your employees.And thats great.When an employee comes to you with a problem,you may tend to jump

45、in and offer advice.While your intentions are noble,you may end up helping where it isnt actually needed or taking over the conversation altogether.You go into rescuer mode,and its understandable.Youre trying to help out wherever you can.But at the end of the day,youre very;tired because youve taken

46、 on more than you should have,and your team member is depressed because responsibilities were taken away from them.You thought you were helping as much as you could,but instead you undermined their morale as they had no chance to achieve something independently.The easiest way to avoid this situatio

47、n is to be lazy.You just ask questions,especially,ask the laziest coaching question:How can I help?This is the laziest way to find out what your employee needs from you.By asking something like this,you force the person to decide what they need exactlythey might not even know yet themselves.Or they

48、know what they need and will tell you,in the hope that youll agree with whatever it is.Either way,asking the lazy question creates a win-win situation,as it results in a clear and direct request that will lead to the solution your employee is looking for.By asking this lazy question,you avoid jumpin

49、g in to help in the way which you first think is neededno more rescuer mode!Asking questions is a self-management tool because it keeps you lazy and yet shows your curiosity.Be lazy and also be outspoken.Ask your employee,“What do you want from me?”Of course,be careful of how you say this,because no

50、t everyone will like this.Ask your employee,really,truly,“What can I do to help?”It sounds easy,but it can be hard to resist the temptation to jump in and help someone,or to offer advice. However,in the end,youll find that asking the lazy question makes you more useful to those you manage,and it wil
