What would it be like to be a pedestrian? Actually, pretty good. In fact, pedestrians might end up with the run of

24、the place. In a new study published in theJournal of Planning Education and Research, Millard-Ball looks at the _31_of urban areas where a majority of vehicles are “autonomous or self-driving. Itnot as far off as one might think. “Autonomous vehicles have the potential to _32_ travel behavior,”Milla

25、rd-Ball says. He uses game theory to _33_ the interactions between pedestrians and self-driving vehicles, with a focus on yielding at crosswalks. Because autonomous vehicles are by design risk-averse, Millard-Balls model suggests that pedestrians will be able to act with impunity, and he thinks auto

26、nomous vehicles may facilitate a shift towards pedestrian-oriented urban neighborhoods. However, Millard-Ball also finds that the _34_ of autonomous vehicles may be hampered by their strategic disadvantage that slows them down in urban traffic. “Pedestrians routinely play the game of chicken,”Millar

27、d-Ball writes. Crossing the street, even at a marked crosswalk without a traffic signal, requires a probability calculation: what are the odds of survival? The benefit of crossing the street_35_, instead of waiting for a gap in traffic, is traded off against the probability of injury or even death.

28、Pedestrians know that drivers are not interested in running them down - usually. But there is the chance a driver may be _36_, ordrunk. Self-driving cars are_37_ to obey the rules of the road, including waiting for pedestrians to cross. They could provide the most _38_ transformation in urban transp

29、ortation systems. Parking, street design, and transportation service networks are likely to be revolutionized.In his latest study, Millard-Ball suggests that the potential benefits of self-driving cars - avoiding _39_ of traffic and traffic accidents - may be outweighed by the drawbacks of an always

30、 play-it-safe vehicle that slows traffic for everybody. “From the point of view of a passenger in an automated car, it would be like driving down a street filled with _40_ five-year-old children, Millard-Ball writes. Alternatively, planners could seize the opportunity to create more pedestrian-orien

32、ological Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B ，C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Everybody loves to hate invasive species. The international list of invasive specieswere introduced by h

33、umans to new places, and then_41_ runs to over 4,000. In Australia and New Zealand hot war is fought against introduced creatures like cane toad (蔗蟾蜍 ) and rats. Some things that are uncontroversial (無(wú)爭(zhēng)議的 ) are nonetheless foolish. With a few important exceptions, campaigns to _42_ invasive species

34、are merely a waste of money and effortfor reasons that are partly practical and partly philosophical. Start with the practical arguments. Most invasive species are neither terribly successful nor very_43_. Britons think themselves surrounded by foreign plants. _44_, Britainnot spreading especially q

35、uickly, and often less of a(n) _45_ than vigorous native plants. The arrival of new species almost always _46_biological diversity(多樣性) in a region; in many cases, a flood of newcomers drives no native species to extinction. One reason is that invaders tend to colonise _47_ habitats like polluted la

36、kes and post-industrial wasteland, where little else lives. They a re natureThe philosophical reason for starting war on the invaders is also _48_. Elimination campaigns tend to be _49_ by the belief that it is possible to restore balance to natureto return woods and lakes to the state before human

37、_50_. That is misguided. Nature is an everlasting mess, with species constantly emerging, withdrawing and hybridizing (雜交). Humans have only quickened these processes. Going back to ancient habitats is becoming _51_ in any case, because of man-made climate change. Taking on the invaders is a(n) _52_

38、 gesture, not a means to an achievable end. A reasonable attitude to invaders need not imply passivity. A few foreign species are truly _53_ and should be fought: the Nile perch a fish, has helped drive many species of fish to extinction in Lake Victoria. It makes sense to _54_ pathogen (病菌), especi

46、Jeremy Baras remembers the first time he ever saw a pop-up a restaurant. The 26-year-old entrepreneur（企業(yè)家）was on vacation in England four years ago and had to look up at the London Eye Ferries wheel to see it. Hanging above him was a capsule full of diners who were served a new course each time a re

47、volution was made. “I thought that was the coolest thing ever ”, he says. Baras, who founded PopUpRepublic promote the idea of pop-up restaurants in USA, has been studying them ever since.

Chefs in Dinner Lab cook in the middle of space, give

51、a brief introduction about the menu and themselves and then bravely listen to diner feedback afterward. Pop- ups temporary nature also allows restaurateurs to charge a deposit to make sure the diners will show up. Of course, trends in the food industry come and go quickly, and there is no guarantee

52、that diners won t tire of the concept. Some entrepreneurs have resorted to even a weirder locations in a former limestone mine, say, or at the top of a craneto keep customers interested.
