Driving with GPS Can Cause Difficulties
Global Positioning System (GPS) is now a part of everyday driving in m any countries. It is a space -based system that provides position and time information in all weather conditions. GPS can help people get to where they want to go. ___56___ When this happens, the driver is often to blame. Sometimes a GPS error is responsible. Most often, it is a combination of the two.
___57___ Barry Brown, a GPS technologist, took an incident as an example. His friend once flew to an airport in the eastern United States. There he borrowed a GPS-equipped car to use. He wrongly plugged in the home address in the w est. It wasn’t until he was driving for thirty minutes that he realized it. Mr. Brown says this is a common human error. But he says, “One problem is that GPS has a very small screen and it can just tell you the next turn. ___58___”

第三節(jié)(共10小 題;每小題1.5分，共15分)
Read the following passage and then answer the questions. 閱讀文章并回答問題。
Space Tourists
Saturday 28 April, 2001: Dennis Tito was setting off on his holiday. “So what?” you might think. Well, Mr. Tito’s journey was certainly unus ual! So was the transport he chose, and the price of his trip.
The 60-year-old millionaire from New York was sitting on board a Russian spaceship. He was on a journey to the International Space Station. It might have been a routine trip for the two Russian astronauts who were travelling with him, but for him it was certainly no ordinary journey. Dennis Tito was the first tourist ever in space, and he had paid million to go there. As the spacecraft left the earth’s atmosphere, Tito drank a glass of fruit juice to celebrate and looked down at the earth’s blue-green surface. Two minutes later, he was sick. Luckily it was only a minor problem. He soon recovered, and from then on enjoyed a smooth journey. When he arrived at the space station, there was a big smile on his face. “A great trip!” he commented. “I love space.”
For a long time space travel was something for heroes. But if some people are right, all this is going to change. One of them is Charles Miller, Director of a company called ProSpace. They are investing1 large a mounts of money in space travel. “Tito’s adventure was just the beginning. We’re going to see exciting new things in the next twenty years!” Charles Miller says.
Companies like ProSpace want space and space travel to belong to the public, not just governments. There are other future plans, like cruises2 through space from one side of the world to the other. Maybe we will be able to leave from New York at nine o’clock in the morning, and arrive in Tokyo an hour later! Such a schedule would allow the business traveller to return to New York on the same day, and still have eight hours for a meeting! How’s that for speed?
1. invest: to spend money in order to make something succeed
2. cruise: journey
