Everyso often, one of thosemagazi nes wouldrun an articl e on the“Car of the Future”. They featur ed unconv entio nal things like smallnuclea r reacto rs反应堆 as powersource s. Yet, frankl y, my car doesn’t do anythi ng that my brothe r’s Studeb akerdidn’t do. It goes, it stops, it burnsgas oli ne. I stillhave to steerit, and it stillruns into things if I don’t steerit carefu lly.But guesswhat? All of thesethings are likely to change in the not-so-distan t future. It may not burn gasoli ne, I may not have to steer it, and it may be a lot better at not runnin g into things.Airbag s aren’t the be-all and end-all in safety. In fact, consid eri ng the recent news aboutpeople occasi onall y beingkilled by theirairbag s in low-speedcollis ions（碰撞), they obviou sly stillneed some develo pment. But they aren’t go ingaway, and in fact, you can expect to see cars appear ing with add iti onal, side-impact airbag s, someth ing some Europe an car manufa cturers alread y offer.Better than system s to minimi ze（使减少到最低限度） injury in the eventof an accide nt ,howeve r, are system s that m inimi ze the likeli hoodof an accide nt happen ing. Future cars may be able to remove many of the majorcauses of accide nts, includ ing drun k-drivin g, and tailga ting. Cars couldbe equipp ed with sensor s that can detect alcoho l in a driver’s system and preven t the car from b eingstarte d, for exampl e. As earlyas next year, you’ll be able to buy cars with radar-equipp ed contro l system s. If the radardeterm in esyou’re closin g too quickl y with the car in front, it will ease u p on the thrott le .Will cars eventu allybe able to drivethemse lves? There’s no reason to thinkit won’t be techni cally possib le, and Merced es is workin g on a system that can brake, accele rateand steera vehicl e down a h ighwa y on its own. Nobody really expect s people to give up all control to theircars, but such system s couldbe used as failsa fe system s to keep cars on the road and bringthem safely to a stop even if the driver sudden ly became disabl ed.71.Why was the author fascin atedby cars becaus e _______.A. othersmallboys likedto own a car of theirown, too.B. he read unconv entio nal things aboutcars in his brothe r’s magazi nes.C. his oldest brothe r lovedto take him to places in his car.D. he subscr ibedto cool car magazi nes.72.By saying "my car doesn’t do anythi ng that my brothe r’s Studeb a kerdidn’t do", the authormeansthat_____.A. my car is far better than my brothe r’sB. my car is not as go od as my brothe r’sC. not much has change d in the perfor mance of cars so farD. much improv ement has been made in the design of cars recent ly73. Whichof the follow ing statem entsis true of airbag s?A. They are in need of furthe r improv ement.B. They are goingto disapp ear gradua lly.C. They kill people instea d of protec tingthem in low-speedcollis io ns.D. They are a standa rd featur e of Europe an cars.74.Accord ing to the author, what will future cars do if the sensor s det ect alcoho l in the driver's system?A. They will give a warnin g in advanc e.B. They will brakeautoma tical ly.C. They will ease up on the thrott le.D. They will not start.75.Whichof the follow ing statem entsis true accord ing to the last para gr aph?A. People will give up all contro l to theircarsB. Cars will be able to drivethemse lves.C. No cars will ever breakdown on the roads.D. Cars will all be equipp ed with failsa fe system.答案：BCADBU5 TO U8I studypoliti cal violen ce暴力for a living, yet I, too, am shaken and unsure how to react.As I sit here todayin my office, only a few milesfrom the still-burnin g Pentag on, images of the slaugh ter屠杀in my native New York domina te统治my though ts.

Thus, we -- all of us -- are the real target s of this attack. This explai ns why many of us, even thoseof us who were not near the attack s, or who knew no one affect ed by them, felt this traged y so deeply.Yet we must not succum b屈从 to fear, for if we do the terror istshave won. Surely our liveswill be differ ent now. We may be more aware, more inconv enien ced不方便,more insecu re不安全. But we must learnto deal with this traged y and to move on, to live our livesas fullyand as entire ly as before.
