After a friend recommended that he join a secret Google project six years ago, Brian Torcellini became a driver in a driverless car.

Torcellini,31, leads a crew of test drivers who are legally required to ride in Google’s fleet of 48 driverless cars . They only take a control in emergencies. Otherwise, they make observations that help the company’s engineers improve the driverless cars.

The driverless cars already have covered more than 2 million miles in six years of testing on private tracks, on highways and city streets. The vehicles have traveled more than half that distance in automated mode (自动模式),with one test driver in place to take control of the car if the technology fails or a potentially dangerous situation arises. Meanwhile, another driver sits in the front passenger seat taking notes of the problems that need to be fixed.

The job of the test driver requires a sense of adventure, something Torcellini acquired when he began to surf in high school. His other hobbies include fishing and scuba diving.

While the engineers who are programming the robot cars have technical backgrounds, most of the test drivers don’t. Torcellini worked in a book store. He dreamed of becoming a writer. He ended up at Google in 2009. Espinosa, 27, was working in a bicycle shop before he was hired as a test driver two years ago . Stephanie Villegas, 28, was a swim instructor, before becoming a test driver. Other test drivers were former soldiers and former photographers. They all share at least one thing in common: spotless driving records. Besides this, the job also requires a combination of good judgment, patience and fearlessness.

Before they are entrusted (托付) with the cars,Google’s test drivers must complete three-week training courses. The drivers are taught to take control of the robot car whenever there is any moment of doubt or danger.

Google employs “dozens” of test drivers but won't reveal the precise number . California law requires two test drivers per vehicle.

3.I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or conflict.I'm left(36)puzzled.Why do these people create mistrust and problems,especially with those from other(37)races?
       I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s,(38)when children from different races and religions played and studied (39)together in harmony.At that time my family lived a stone's (40)throw from Ismail's.And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and I was an Indian Hindu-we just (41)accepted our differences.Perhaps,our elders had not filled our heads with unnecessary advice,well (42)meant or otherwise.
       We were nine when we became friends.During the school holidays,we'd (43)explore the countryside on our bicycles,hoping to (44)come across the unexpected.At times Ismail would accompany my family as we made a rare shopping trip to town.We would be glad of his (45)company.
       When I was twelve,my family moved to Johor.Ismail's family later returned to their village,and I (46)lost touch with him.
One spring afternoon in 1983,I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur.I (47)stated my destination.The driver acknowledged my (48)instructions but did not move off.Instead,he looked (49)fixedly at me."Raddar?"he said,using my childhood nickname (绰号).I was astonished at being so (50)familiarly addressed (称呼).Unexpectedly!It was Ismail!Even after two (51)decades we still recognized each other.Grasping his shoulder,I felt a true affection,something (52)hard to describe.
       If we can allow our children to be (53)themselves without prejudice,they'll build friendships with people,regardless of race or religion,who will be (54)by their side through thick and thin.On such friendships are societies built and (55)then we can truly be,as William Shakespeare once wrote,"We happy few.We band of brothers".

Born in 1949,Diana Nyad took an early interest in swimming as a sport and was a Florida State High School swimming champion.Like many young athletes,she had Olympic dreams,but a serious illness kept her from competing in the Games.The disappointment didn't stop her from going forward.Instead,she became interested in marathon swimming.A brilliant athlete,she was well-conditioned for spending long periods of time in the water.As a long-distance swimmer,she would compete against herself and the obstacles  presented by distance,danger,cold,and exhaustion.
For ten years Nyad devoted herself to becoming one of the world's best long-distance swimmers.In 1970,she swam a ten-mile marathon in Lake Ontario,setting the women's record for the course.In 1972she set another record by swimming 102.5miles from an island in the Bahamas to the coast of Florida.Then she broke a third record when swimming around Manhattan Island in 1975.
Nyad attempted to swim the distance between Florida and Cuba in 1978.Though the span of water is less than 100miles wide,it is rough and dangerous.After battling the water for two days,she had to give for the sake of her own health and safety.Even so,she impressed the world with her courage and strong desire to succeed.For Nyad her strength of purpose was just as important as reading Cuba.That is how she defined success.It did not matter that her swim came up short; she believed she had touched the other shore.
When Nyad ended her career as a swimmer,she continued to try new things---travelling the world as a reporter,writing books and giving public speeches about her life.Diana Nyad works to inspire others,just as she did when she swam the waters of the world.
