Self-driving cars are believed to be the future of panies including Toyota, Uber and Google are all competing to be the first to bring them to market.
However, car makers need to solve one problem first: How driverless cars communicate with passers-by, bikers and other drivers. Most drivers today use gestures to show their purposes. They wave a car into a lane(车道), or nod at passers-by and cyclists, to let them cross the street. But self-driving cars don’t have this ability. What can they do US carmaker Ford and its partner Virginia Tech think they have the answer, reported Business Insider. The team is testing a method that uses light signals to show what self-driving cars are doing. For example, if a driverless car is yielding, it could flash two white lights side to side. A solid white light tells there are no humans in the car. A slow blinking light shows the car is coming to a stop. A rapidly flashing light tells passers-by that the car is about to speed up. To test the method on real roads, the team designed a special suit that looks exactly like a car seat. When a driver wears it, it appears to people that the car is really driverless. The team then successfully got more than 1,500 hours of data after about 2,900 kilometres of “self-driving” through busy cities. The data recorded how people interacted with a driverless vehicle. Ford says they plan to share the data with 11 other companies, reported . The company wants to work with other carmakers to design a signaling system that would be understood by all.
21．What are considered to be the future of driving
A．Flying cars. B．Driverless cars. C．Energy-saving cars. D．Electric cars.
22．What’s the problem of driverless cars
A．Communicating with people. B．Not having enough seatbelts.
C．Driving into a lane. D．Crossing a street.
23．What does the underlined word “yielding” refer to
A．加速 B．减速 C．让路 D．超车
24．According to Ford and Virginia Tech, how might the problem be solved
A．Flashing light signals. B．Sending information to smartphones.
C．Designing special suits for drivers. D．Only driving in small cities.
25．Which of the following shows the car will speed up
A．A solid white light. B．A slow blinking light.
C．A fast flashing light. D．No lights.

Dear Kate,
My first stop in London was Buckingham Palace. Kings and queens and their families have lived in Buckingham Palace since 1837. Queen Victoria made Buckingham Palace her home in 1837. But it was not big enough for all her guests. More importantly, it was not big enough for all the children she planned to have, so she made the palace bigger and bigger.
I saw a parade at Buckingham Palace this morning. It's called the Changing of the Guard. It’s fascinating. The guards wear interesting uniforms with red coats and tall hats. Since 1660, the kings and queens of England have had these special guards to protect them.
The ceremony(仪式) lasted about 45 minutes. The new guards marched to the palace with a band to replace the old guards. They did this in a colourful ceremony with music. It’s interesting that they played both traditional music and popular songs. The Changing of Guard takes place in front of Buckingham Palace every day in spring and summer, and every two days in autumn and winter.
I went to the Houses of Parliament after I saw the Changing of the Guard. What are the Houses of Parliament Well, I guess the country’s leaders meet there to discuss important decisions.
Next to the Houses of Parliament stands a tall clock tower. Most people call it Big Ben. You know what The name Big Ben does not refer to the clock tower. Big Ben is actually the 13-ton bell inside it!
Take care!
Judy

43．推理判断题。根据“The Changing of Guard takes place in front of Buckingham Palace every day in spring and summer, and every two days in autumn and winter.”可知，白金汉宫前的换岗仪式在春天和夏天每天都举行，在秋天和冬天每两天举行一次，所以周三错过后要等到周五再看。故选B。
44．词义猜测题。根据“The ceremony(仪式) lasted about 45 minutes. The new guards marched to the palace with a band to replace the old guards.”可知，仪式持续大约45分钟。新守卫与一个乐队走到宫殿来取代旧的警卫，所以replace意为“替代”。故选A。
45．推理判断题。通过“My first stop in London was Buckingham Palace。I went to the Houses of Parliament after I saw the Changing of the Guard. Next to the Houses of Parliament stands a tall clock tower”可知，我在伦敦的第一站是白金汉宫，我看到了守卫换岗后，去了国会大厦。议会大厦旁边是一个高大的钟楼。所以共谈到了3个地点。故选C。
