填空题41)__________. But traffic experts say building more roads is a quick-fix solution that will not alleviate the traffic problem in the long run. Soaring land costs, increasing concern over social and environmental disruptions caused by road building, and the likelihood that more roads can only lead to more cars and traffic are powerful factors bearing down on a 1950s-style construction program. 42) __________. Proponents of this advanced technology say electronic detection systems, closed-circuit television, radio communication, ramp metering, variable message singing, and other smart-highway technology can now be used at a reasonable cost to improve communication between drivers and the people who monitor traffic. Pathfinder, a Santa Monica, California-based smart-highway project in which a 14-mile stretch of the Santa Monica Freeway, making up what is called a "smart corridor", is being instrumented with buried loops in the pavement. Closed circuit television cameras survey the flow of traffic, while communications linked to properly equipped automobiles advise motorists of the least congested routes or detours. 43) __________. "Electronics on the highway addresses just one aspect of the Problem: how to regulate traffic more efficiently", explains Michael Rennet, senior researcher at the World watch Institute. "It doesn't deal with the central problem of too many cars for roads that can't be built fast enough. It sends people the wrong message: They start thinking 'Yes, there used to be a traffic congestion problem, but that's been solved now because we have an advanced high-tech system in place. '" Larson agrees and adds, 44) "__________". Other traffic problem-solving options being studied and experimented with include car pooling, rapid mass-transit systems, staggered or flexible work hours, and road pricing, a system whereby motorists pay a certain amount for the time they use a highway. 45) __________.[A] Smart highways are just one of the tools that we will use to deal with our traffic problems. It's not the solution itself, just part of the package. There are different strategies.[B] It seems that we need a new, major thrust to deal with the traffic problems of the next 20 years. There has to be a big change.[C] It's taking advantage of the technology you use in your everyday lives and putting it to work on highways.[D] Traffic statistics paint a gloomy picture. To help solve their traffic woes, some rapidly growing U.S. cities have simply built more roads.[E] The goal of smart-highway technology is to make traffic systems work at optimum efficiency by treating the road and the vehicles traveling on them as an integral transportation system.[F] Smart highways that will allow a driver to program a destination on a dashboard computer, then sit back and enjoy the ride.[G] Not all traffic experts, however, look to smart-highway technology as the ultimate solution to traffic gridlock. Some say the high-tech approach is limited and can only offer temporary solutions to a serious problem.

It just doesn't matter 5 Ways to Stop Second Guessing Yourself Some years ago I remember standing in my kitchen, staring silently at my boxes of cereal, trying to decide which to have for breakfast. I stood there for 5 minutes, until--utterly frustrated--I marched out of the house and went without. Fortunately I've learned to make decisions more quickly and more easily now, and when I notice that second-guessing and doubting starting to kick in, I kick it right back. So here are 5 ways to make confident decisions. (41) ______. So many times we have to make decisions without a framework and no way to judge between two choices. When faced with a tricky decision it's often a good idea to line up your choices and ask "Which one of these most honors the things that mean the most to me?" The decision that's most in line with the things that mean the most to you--your core values--will be the best decision for you. That might not be the simplest or most practical, but because it fits with who you are and what's most important to you it will always be the best decision for you. (42)______. When I was growing up I used to love rainy Sunday afternoons watching Columbo (an American crime fiction TV series). What Columbo had bundles of was a great trust in his intuition. In every episode, from the very moment he first meets the bad guy, he knows "whodunit"--and he always trusts that. So look at what your intuition tells you is the 'right' decision for you. Forget about all the "What if's" and the myriad, tiny details--what is your gut telling you? Listen to your intuition, it knows what it's talking about. (43)______. My decision between breakfast cereals wasn't a big deal. Whichever one I chose, there were never going to be any huge consequences and the ripples from that decision wouldn't have been felt much further than the end of my spoon. Sometimes it just doesn't matter which way you go. It's easy to get wrapped up in second guessing yourself, going round in circles and over-complicating things, when--if you get right down to it--it just doesn't matter. Going round in circles is only going to make you dizzy, so stop it. Ask yourself this question-if your future happiness wasn't dependent on your decision, which way would you go? (44)______. Go and get the facts before you make a complex decision. By all means weigh up the pro's and con's so that you can get an understanding of what's behind a choice. But be careful--there's a huge difference between knowing enough to make a choice, and knowing everything to make a choice. When you feel yourself pursuing every fact or every piece of information before you make a decision, stop yourself. Ask "What do I really need to know to make this decision?" and focus your efforts on getting the best information relatively quickly. (45)______. We all naturally shy away from change, and we've developed a whole bunch of tricks that make it easy for us to avoid making decisions and stay exactly where we are. That part of you is often called the "Gremlin", and it's the part of you that would rather avoid making decisions altogether rather than run the risk of making a bad one or screwing up. Your Gremlin is not the same thing as having doubts, which are valid concerus about a possible course of action, or reasonable concerns about what might be in store. Your doubts can help you prepare for change and get ready for what could happen. Your Gremlin is adept at feeding on your doubts and using them to get you to stay put, so knowing the difference between your Gremlin and your valid doubts helps you clarify what's real and what's imagined, what's relevant and what's irrelevant.
