1.The way we merge (合并) causes problems
Whether you're merging from the left or the right,(42)chances are good that you're doing it wrong and causing all sorts of problems.When most people see that they need to merge,their first (43)instinct is to do it right away.They brake,slow down,speed up,and change lanes in between oncoming traffic.According to the Minnesota department of Transportation,that's completely wrong.Sudden (44)slowing causes traffic to back up,a problem that's made worse by sudden lane changes and other cars braking to (45)accommodate the merging traffic.
So what should you do?Exactly what you probably blame drivers for doing:waiting until the last minute.If you do that,traffic will fall into a more natural pattern called a"zipper merge",meaning there are no surprises,no sudden braking,and a smoother transition from one lane to another,which cuts down on backups.This does,of course,rely on other drivers to let you in at the last minute and be polite enough not to cut you off,which causes all sorts of other problems.
=2.You are causing the traffic Jams you hate
Traffic jams have long been chalked up to (取决于) the (46)volume of traffic on the roads,but it turns out that even heavy traffic can (47)flow smoothly if people maintain a (48)constant speed.The problem is that we can't.Researchers have found that just one person even slightly stepping on their brakes can have a terrible effect on the traffic around them.
On even (49)moderately busy road,it can be only a few minutes for traffic to a complete halt behind someone who (50)tapped their brakes to let another driver merge.The standstill usually occurs several minutes after the braking,well after the person that causes the problem in the first place has gone on his way.
A.What kind of technology might we see in sports shoes of the future? B.What should people look out for when buying a new pair of sports shoes? C.Will a more expensive shoe make me run faster or jump higher,as the ads suggest? D.Is it true that expensive shoes are no better at preventing injury than cheap ones? E.Some people say we should run just as well without shoes.What's your opinion? F.You helped develop the unstable Masai MBT shoes.Does this design actually work? |
Nigg's Answer:That is a little bit overstated.But the literature shows that shoes are a minor player in injury development.If you take a group of people and want to injure them,send them out every day for a 20-kilometre run.A lot of them will be injured in three weeks.The major factors are the distance run,the intensity and recovery time,not the shoes.
77.B
Nigg's Answer:The problem is that if you go to a store and want to find your best shoes,you don't know what to do.Things that are sometimes done,like video analysis of your rear foot movement,may not help.The only way to assess whether a shoe is right for you is how it feels.If you feel comfortable in a shoe,it's likely to be good for you.
78.C
Nigg's Answer:A shoe may act as a training device,making some muscles to function more effectively for a majority of users.Or it may use materials that last longer.That may have something to do with its price.However,for the average runner it is difficult to distinguish between actual functional designs and unnecessary features.Generally,the more a shoe controls movement,the more it acts like a cast,which means you lose some muscle strength,and your feet are more likely to be injured.
79.F
Nigg's Answer:Yes,for about 80per cent of people.The major benefits are training the small muscles crossing the ankle joint,and a reduction of knee and lower back pain.However,some claims for these unstable shoes are overstated,such as the general muscle strengthening that they are claimed to produce.
80.E
Nigg's Answer:There are claims that there are fewer injuries when you run barefoot,but there is not yet enough evidence,or enough research,to prove that.If you look at performance,most papers suggest an advantage of 3to 4per cent.With a few exceptions,people don't run barefoot,so it may be that it's not an advantage,or it may be that we're just not used to it.
