Some scientists say that self-driving or driverless cars(無人駕駛汽車) may hit the roads within 15 years, and it is possible that driving may become not necessary, or more relaxing and enjoyable.

Companies like Google, Baidu, Apple and Alibaba are working on driverless cars. If the tests are successful, these electric self-driving cars could be put into use very soon. This kind of cars may change the way we live in the future. All you have to do is typing in the address!

According to Baidu, driverless technology has the following four advantages. Firstly, driverless cars are actually safer. Secondly, driverless cars are more efficient(有效的) than manned cars. Thirdly, driverless cars follow the traffic rules. Therefore traffic control will be easier to achieve. At last, the cost of transportation will be reduced as the labor cost becomes less.

There are many different technologies needed to make a successful self-driving car. The most difficult technologies of all are environmental perception (感知), behavior prediction, planning control, HD mapping, and exact GPS.

A city without cars would be very strange, right? But Venice is such a city.

Venice is in the northeast of Italy. It wasn’t built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere around the city.

Even so, traveling isn’t that difficult. The waterway has always been the best way to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that connect one river with another and can also guide you where you want to go. People in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy the scenery and cool summer nights while taking boat trips. They can talk to other people as they go along the river.

Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem. Sometimes tourists will have such strange experiences. One moment they walk across the Rialto Bridge, and there’s nothing special. But when they come back to the bridge an hour later, it’s underwater and everyone is wearing rain shoes.

Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters. Another problem is that the temperature has risen over the years. This has made ice of the Arctic Ocean(北冰洋)melt(融化).

Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower. The Italian government has asked some of Italy’s biggest companies to build the MOST project, which was planned to be built under the seawater to stop the rising water. Anyway, this project is helping solve the problem.

Fill in the blanks according to the passage. Only one word for each blank.
