　　Dad said it would be an unusual present, and he was quite right. He said, “Go to the telephone and call a ten figure number. It must begin with 010. Got that 010-? You can please yourself about the other seven figures. ”

　　I called the number 010-6132597. A few moments later I heard a man’s clear voice at the other end, the voice said, “Kikri 2597. Don Flower speaking. ”

　　I said, “Hello, Mr. Flower. I'm Robert West, and this call to you is one of my birthday presents. I'm thirteen today. ”

　　“Oh, that’s great. Many happy returns of the day! Where are you calling from, Robert? You sound very clear. ”

　　“I'm at home in London. Where are you? ”

　　“You’re in London! Well, well-I've never had a call from London before. I live in Kikri, Australia. About a hundred miles from Kikri actually, but it's the nearest place. I've got a small farm here, with about ninety thousand sheep on it. You ought to come and visit me one day. ”

　　“I'd like to very much. Your farm must be very big, Mr. Flower, if you’ve got ninety thousand sheep on it. ”

　　“Well, there may be only eighty thousand by now. I'm not too sure. There’s not a lot of feed for them, you know, and two of my wells have gone dry this month. So we’ve been driving the sheep around a bit. If you go straight across the middle of my farm, it’s a hundred and ten miles. That isn’t a great size for a farm in Australia, but it’s big enough for me! ”

Global Positioning Systems are now a part of everyday driving in many countries. These satellite based systems provide turn-by-turn directions to help people get to where they want to go . But, they can also cause a lot of problems, send you to the wrong place or leave you completely lost. Many times, the driver is to blame. Sometimes a GPS error is responsible. Most often , says Barry Brown, an expert in human computer inter action, it is a combination of the two.

We spoke to Mr Brown by Skype (网络电话软件).He told us about an incident involving a friend who had flown to an airport in the eastern United States. There he borrowed a GPS equipped car to use during his stay .Barry Brown:“And they just put in an address and then set off to their destination. And , then it wasn’t until they were driving for thirty minutes that they realized they actually put in a destination back on the West Coast where they lived. They actually put their home address in . So again, the GPS is kind of ‘garbage in garbage out’”.

Mr Brown says this a common human error. But, he says, what makes the problem worse has to do with some of the shortcomings, or failures, of GPS equipment. Barry Brown:“One problem with a lot of the GPS units is they have a very small screen and they just tell you the next turn . Because they just give you the next turn, sometimes that means that it is not really giving you the overview that you would need to know that it’s going to the wrong place.”

Barry Brown once worked on a project with Eric Laurier from the University of Edinburgh. The two men studied the effects of GPS devices on driving by placing cameras in people’s cars. They wrote a paper based on their research. It is called “The Normal, Natural Troubles of Driving with GPS”. It lists several areas where GPS systems can cause confusion for drivers. These include maps that are outdated, incorrect or difficult to understand . They also include timing issues (时机问题)related to when GPS commands are given.

Barry Brown says to make GPS systems better we need a better understanding of how drivers, passengers and GPS systems work together.

72．In Paragraph 2, Mr Brown mentioned his friend in the conversation to 　　　　　　　.

　　 A．build up his own reputation　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B．laugh at his stupid friend

　　 C．describe an example of human error　　　　　　　 D．prove the GPS system is only garbage

73．What is the disadvantage of small screens in GPS equipment according to the text?

　　 A．They make drivers tired easily.]　　　　　　　　　　　 B．They are harmful to eyes.

　　 C．They just provide the next turn. 　　　　　　　　　　 D．They often break down suddenly.

74．With which of the following statements would Barry Brown most likely agree?

　　 A．GPS units are to blame for most GPS service failures.

　　 B．Drivers, GPS systems and passengers should unite to improve GPS systems.

　　 C．Cameras are urgently needed to help improve GPS systems.

　　 D．We should introduce higher standards for the driving license.

75．What would be the best title for the text?

　　 A．GPS equipment in driving : to be deserted or improved?

　　 B．Driving with GPS can be difficult　　　　　　　　　

　　 C．Driving without GPS should be much more convenient

　　 D．Driving errors can be caused by small screens.
