【题目】 People in several American states may be surprised to see cars on city streets without a driver. Experimental driverless vehicles now are legal in Florida, Nevada and California. They are pointing the way to a future that is not far down the road. The high-tech company Google has a number of self-driving cars, which had covered 480,000 kilometers by August. Volvo is among the companies doing road tests and says it plans to sell driverless cars by 2020.

In September, California Governor Jerry Brown signed an act to allow autonomous vehicles on the roads of his state. “Today we’re looking at science fiction becoming tomorrow's reality-the driverless car. ” The technology for these cars includes cameras, radar and motion sensors. The systems have been improved through competitions sponsored by the U. S. government agency DARPA. Engineer Richard Mason of the Rand Corporation helped design driverless vehicles for DARPA challenge races.

Cars have become much more fuel-efficient, and new electronic features are' making Hondas safer, said Angie Nucci of Honda America. “A camera on the passenger-side mirror actually engaged on your guiding screen so you can safely change lanes. ” Other safety features include warning systems on the front and the sides of the cars. These systems help drivers , but don’t replace them. Curator Leslie Kendall of the Petersen Automotive Museum said autonomous cars will make the high ways safer．

“By taking out drivers, you also remove most risks of an accident, ”Kendall said. He said , “Consumers, however, may be unwilling to los control. It may take them time to come to realize that the technology is indeed reliable, but it will have to prove itself first. ”

Mason said the technology already works and the biggest challenge now is getting down the cost for driverless vehicles from hundreds of thousands of dollars to something more affordable. He said this will happen as the technology is improved.

【题目】When you're surfing the Internet on your laptop from your dorm or home, do you know your personal details are being gathered secretly? And would you be surprised to know the information may be sold cheaply to advertisers and marketers?

According to an investigation by The Wall Street Journal, all it takes is a tiny file in a computer-a single code consisting of a long series of numbers and letters-to record the computer user's age, gender, location, favorite movies and hobbies.

The newspaper reports that Lotame Solutions Inc.，a New York company, uses sophisticated （高科技）software called a "beacon" to capture what people are typing on a website.

Lotame packages that data into profiles （个人资料）about individuals, only without their names, and sells the profiles to companies seeking customers. Batches of such data may be sold for a few dollars.

Hie Wall Street Journal survey discovered that spying on Internet users is one of the fastest-growing businesses on the World Wide Web.

The "cookie"-a tiny text file put on your PC by websites or marketing firms which might be used to remember your preferences for one site, or to track you across many sites is already old news. There are new and more complex tools such as " beacons " which scan in real time what people are doing on a webpage. These bea-cons instantly assess the Internet user's location, income, shopping interests and even medical conditions.

Millions of Internet users around the world also face unprecedented （空前的）threats. Private, sensitive, personal and business information is being gathered and sold without their knowledge.

Companies insist the information they gather is anonymous and the data is used harmlessly. But the technology has grown so powerful that even some of the biggest websites in the US don't know that they were installing intrusive files on visitors' computers. These include MSN. com and Yahoo, com.

Next time you visit a webpage and find an ad banner advertising something you've been planning to buy, don't be amazed that your computer can read your mind.

【题目】We stayed at the Altapura for 9 nights over the Christmas period. The hotel benefits from a perfect location with easy ski in and ski out. The ski room is well equipped and the staff are very friendly and helpful in fitting the correct skis and boots.

Overall the hotel is well appointed and conveniently located with its own underground car park, a selection of restaurants and spa facilities. We particularly enjoyed lunches on the sunny terrace(露天平台) facing the slopes and have a late afternoon drink at the bar area in the comfortable chairs and sofas which are surrounded by two fires.

We support the repeated comment in all the reviews that there is no control over the temperature in the room. We were also surprised the bathroom floor was not heated. This is to be expected at any five star hotel in the Alps and is a standard these days in so many homes that for a hotel not to have it is disappointing.

Our main letdown with the hotel was service and this was broken down to the actual servicing of the room and the overall operation of the hotel. By our third night we did complain to the management and the GM Praveen was quick to meet with us and crack all the issues as well as offer us a drink and dinner on the house, which was highly appreciated.

The managements’ timely response to our issues is why we have given this review 4 out of 5. Otherwise we would have given this hotel 3/5.

Overall if you are looking to stay at the highest resort in Europe and want to be guaranteed snow, then the Altapura is the place to stay at in Val Thorens.

【2】What is the repeated comment in all the reviews? (No more than 15 words)
