In a food store I heard a woman say her foot was hurting and that she was going to call a cab. When walking back home, I saw her outside the store, probably for a cab.

I asked her where she was going. She told me a place which was actually on the to the craft store I’d be to. So I asked her to the cab and I’d give her a ride. To my , she said okay without . I wonder if I’d have been so if a stranger made me the same offer!

Where she was going was on the way to where I was going. It was such a interaction. But there was more!

When I had what I went for and was waiting at the checkout, the woman behind me said she had a coupon(優(yōu)惠券)for 50% off any in the store. She gave it to me because she had a(n) one! I thanked her and gave her a card.

They say “what goes around comes around”, but sometimes it is hard to see how that as there is often a “manifestation(顯現(xiàn))delay”. Each action a ripple (漣漪)that eventually back to us, but sometimes it is much so we forget their connection.

Today the causes and effects have appeared in a linkable manner in . I’m also opening myself to receiving gifts, now or in the future. I can learn so much from others as to how they are to receive gifts in a way I might not have been if the same.

A device that stops drivers from falling asleep at the wheel is about to undergo testing at Department of Transport laboratories and could go on sale within 12 months.

The system,called driver Alert,aims to reduce deadly road accidents by 20%—40% that are caused by tiredness.Airline pilots can also use it to reduce the 30% of all pilot error accidents that are related to fatigue.

Driver Alert is based on a computerized wristband.The device,worn by drivers or pilots gives out a sound about every four minutes during a car journey.After each sound the driver must respond by squeezing the steering wheel(方向盤).A sensor in the wristband detects this pressing action and measures the time between the sound and the driver’s response.

Tiredness is directly related to a driver’s response time.Usually,a watchful driver would take about 400 milliseconds to respond,but once that falls to more than 500 milliseconds,it suggests that the driver is getting sleepy.

In such cases the device gives out more regular and louder sounds,showing that the driver should open a window or stop for a rest.If the driver’s response continues to slow down,the sounds become more frequent until a nonstop alarm warms that the driver must stop as soon as possible.

The device has been delivered to the department’s laboratories for testing.If these tests,scheduled for six months’ time,are successful,the markers will bring the product to market within about a year.

1.According to the text,Driver Alert ______.

A.a(chǎn)ims to reduce tiredness related accidents

B.has gone through testing at laboratories

D.has been on sale for 12 months

2.How should a driver respond to the sounds from Driver Alert?

A.By sounding a warning

B.By touching the wristband

C.By checking the driving time

D.By pressing the steering wheel

3.We can learn from the text that the driver needs to stop for a break when his response time is ______.

A.About 400 milliseconds

B.below 500 milliseconds

C.over 500 milliseconds

D.a(chǎn)bout 400 minutes
