Cars are becoming more and more technologically advanced. In the past decade, we have
seen improvements in electric car technology and driverless cars. The latest advance comes from
Mercedes-Benz. The luxury carmaker has unveiled a car that lets you use your mind to control
certain things. The car giant unveiled its futuristic car at the IAA Mobility show in Munich earlier
this week. The car is called Vision AVTR. The four capitalized letters at the end of its name are to
make people think of the movie Avatar. This movie was about using the brain to connect with
nature. A Mercedes spokesperson said the car would not be available for purchase any time soon.
It is currently in the concept stage of production.
Mercedes is using a technology called brain-computer interface (BCI) in the Vision AVTR.
The car's computers "read" brain signals and translate them into actions. Mercedes says the system
needs about a minute to get to understand a new driver's thought processes. The driver will then be
able to perform certain functions in the car using just their thoughts. Mercedes spokeswoman
Britta Seeger spoke about how exciting she thought the futuristic car was. She said: "Mercedes-
Benz is setting another milestone in the merging of man and machine." The Mercedes website
says: "As soon as you get in, the car becomes an extension of your own body and a tool to
discover the environment."

一个新司机的思维过程。然后，司机将能够只用他们的想法来执行汽车中的某些功能。梅
赛德斯公司的女发言人布丽塔·西格谈到了她认为这款未来主义的汽车是多么令人兴奋。她说：“梅赛德斯-奔驰正在成为人和机器融合的又一个里程碑。”奔驰的网站上说：“一旦
你上车，该车就会成为你自己身体的延伸，也是发现环境的工具。”

【答案】18. B 19. A 20. C
【原文】W: The New York Times(NYT or NY Times) is an American daily
newspaper based in New York City with a worldwide readership. Founded in 1851, NY
Times has since won 130 Pulitzer Prizes(the most of any newspaper), and has long been
regarded within the industry as a national “newspaper of record". It is ranked 18th in the
world by circulation and 3rd in the U. S. In the 1970s, the paper introduced a number of
new lifestyle sections including Weekend and Home, with the aim of attracting more
advertisers and readers. Many criticized the move for betraying the paper's mission. On
September 7th, 1976, the paper switched from an eight-column format to a six-column
format. The overall page width stayed the same, with each column becoming wider. On
September 14th, 1987, NY Times printed the heaviest ever newspaper, at over 12
pounds(5. 4kg) and 1,612 pages. And it was one of the last newspapers to adopt color
photography, especially on the front page. The paper's motto, “All the News That's Fit to
Print”, appears in the upper left-hand corner of the front page.

challenges with the winter weather.
W: But winter just ended! It’ll be summer before you know it.M: I grew up next to the beach, so I’ll never get used to the Russian climate.
W: Then, how come you left?
M: Well, not everything back home was perfect. Life was easy, but it lacked any excitement

【答案】17. A 18. C 19. B 20. C
【原文】It sounds like a joke, but I first got the idea to invent self-driving vehicles while
watching science fiction movies. At the time, electric cars barely existed, but I already knew that
they were the future. Before I decided to invent the world-changing technologies, I was still
finishing my degree in business in my home country. Having this business background from
university did help me quite a bit, but I still needed to learn so much about engineering after
graduation. I spent every day of the following four years to learn about cars and robotics. After
moving and setting up a business in the US, my team created our first self-driving vehicle. But our
product wasn’t available to the public until four years later. Since then, our vehicles have become
the best-selling electric cars on the planet, and we never stopped improving. Partly due to dislike
for socializing, I now spend about 100 hours a week researching new creative solutions to
problems. Of course, I will still sell the inventions that I create, but I will also release the
technology to the public. I want a world where all businesses have access to the same technology,
and thus, all people can benefit from human innovation. I’ll never quit expanding my inventions.
Before I die, I’ll give my company to my business partners and my profits from the products to
foundations that help the world.

enjoy that in a teacher?

there’s a video club meeting—people tell us what they’d like in the future.M: What do people ask for?
W: American films mostly—and we have lots of those. But we also have some good British
films and also a few from Australia.
M: Right. I’d like to join.

or there’s one on the club’s website.
M: I’ll go to the shop and get one then.
W: OK. Goodbye.
(Text 10)
W: I try to do some kind of exercise or sport most days. My health club opens at 5:30 a.m., so
I usually do a 45-minute workout before I go to the office. It helps me get in shape for the week.
My health club has a 20-meter pool, which is OK for a quick swim in the morning.
I think it’s important to be healthy and fit. I probably don’t eat as well as I should. I never
have breakfast. I just drink a strong black coffee at home. And I usually phone out for lunch and
have a sandwich or a hamburger at my desk. I really enjoy eating out with my friends in the
evening. I do that at least three times a week.
At weekends and in the summer, I like to spend time at the beach with friends. We play
soccer on the beach and there’re always lots of water sports going on. I usually play tennis on
Sunday evenings. I also play soccer for my sports club team on Friday evenings. It means I have a
good excuse to get out of the office at the end of the week.

W: What about chopsticks?
M: There were no chopsticks, either. When I looked around, I found the others eating using
their hands. So I followed their example.

W: Maybe they’ll be a review for you, but not for me! I think I’m going to head back to the
bookstore and see if the book has come in since you checked.
M: Then I’m going to relax a little in front of the television set.

can always come work for me selling cars.
