听力题 When a sleepy driver has trouble with keeping his eyes on the road and gets too close to another car, an Mann sound will warn the driver. If nothing is done, the car will automatically come to a stop and in this way prevent an accident. This is a new device which will soon be tested in an experimental car in Japan. The computer warning system keeps track of a driver''s condition by monitoring his heartbeat with signals transmitted from a band around his wrist. The wrist band records the driver''s pulse which measures the heartbeat. Each pulse in the wrist sends a signal to the computer. By analyzing the pulse rate, the computer can determine whether a driver is drunk, sleeping or ill. Devices in other parts of the car can also tell the computer ff the car is too close to another vehicle or is moving dangerously. The computer will sound the alarm when a problem arises, and will automatically stop the car ff the driver ignores the warning.

听力题 Why don''t birds get lost on their long migratory flights? Scientists have puzzled over this question for many years. Now they''re beginning to fill in the blanks. Not long ago, experiments showed that birds rely on the sun to guide them during daylight hours. But what about birds that fly mainly by night? Tests with artificial stars have proved conclusively that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights. One such bird—a warbler—had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a natural sky. Yet it showed an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird''s cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky at migration time. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the make-believe stars caused a change in the direction of his flight. Scientists think that warblers, when flying in daylight, use the sun for guidance. But the stars are apparently their principal means of navigation. What do they do when the stars are hidden by clouds? Apparently, they find their way by such landmarks as mountain ranges, coast lines, and river courses. But when it''s too dark to see these, the warblers circle helplessly, unable to get their bearings. Why don''t birds get lost on their long migratory flights?

听力题 Some people do not like anything to be out of place; they are never late for work; they return their books to the library on time; they remember people’s birthdays; and they pay their bills as soon as they arrive. Mr. Dodd is such a person. Mr. Dodd works in a bank and lives on his own. The only family he has is in the next town: his sister lives there with her husband, and their son, Mark. Mr. Dodd seldom visits his sister, but he sends them Christmas cards, and he has not forgotten one of Mark’s seventeen birthdays. Last week Mr. Dodd had quite a surprise. He drove home from the bank at the usual time, driving neither too slowly nor too fast; he parked his car where he always parked it, out of the way of other cars, and he went inside to make his evening meal. Right away, there was a knock at the door. Mr. Dodd opened the door and, to his surprise he found a policeman standing on the doorstep. “What have I done wrong?” Mr. Dodd asked himself, “Have I driven on the wrong side of the road? Has there been some trouble at the bank? Have I forgotten to pay an important bill?” “Hello, Uncle!” said the policeman. “My name’s Mark.” Some people do not like anything to be out of place; they are never late for work; they return their books to the library on time; they remember people’s birthdays; and they pay their bills as soon as they arrive.
