Don’t be surprised if you see a car going down the road without a driver in Beijing these days.In March, 2018, baidu was given a license to test its self-driving cars in Beijing, China Daily reported.

Self-driving cars have been in development since 2010, when google announced that it was making such cars. Since then, companies like Tesla, Uber and Baidu have been working to produce and test their own self-driving cars.

self-driving cars are expected to change the way we get around. They are safer and more environmentally friendly than regular cars. They can remove the stress(压力) of driving and allow disabled or blind people to get around mroe easily.

But self-driving cars have their own disadvantages as well. In one test, researchers pointed a laser pointer（激光棒） at the car’s sensors（感应器） while it was moving. The car mistakenly thought that the laser beam（波束） was in its way and slowed down or changed directions.

The software(软件) that is used to direct the cars may not be safe enough. Reported Live science. Sometimes, without any reasons,it may break down when we use our computers or smartphones. If the software in a self-driving car happened to crash. The results could be deadly.Maybe improvements to the software could solve this problem.

Nov. 21 is World Hello Day. It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful. It was created by the United Nations just after the war between Israel and Egypt in 1973. Its aim is to encourage people to use communication rather than force to settle conflicts(解决争端)。 The philosophy (理念) behind it is: Say “Hello” and stop war.

It sounds like a fine idea, but most of us know that simple saying “Hello” won’t bring about world peace. Still, the simple act of saying “hello ”to someone can truly make a lot of difference. You raise your head to someone as you pass by , say “Hello’.It is such a casual (不经意的)thing and requires so little effort, but you might even make his day.

Although we might not realize it, a small thing like a greeting can mean a lot to a person. Some people are lonely because they’re shy. That leads to them feeling cut off.they find it difficult to communicate with people, even though they want to. They may secretly smile in their hearts after they hear your greetings. It’s a good idea, not just on Nov.21, but every day, to remember to say “hello”to as many people as we can.

No one said it better than the French writer Joseph Joubert: “Politeness is the flower of humanity(人性)’’. A “Hello” to a stranger is a small thing, and often neglected (忽视), but through it we can make the world better for another person.
