12．Driving in traffic can be extremely stressful．Pedestrians appear out of nowhere，cars suddenly pull out of parking spots，and roads become slippery due to rain or snow．Knowing when to brake and when to accelerate in such situations is hard enough for a human driver，let alone a robotic one．But several carmakers-and a few tech companies-are working to convince drivers to let driverless cars take the wheel．
       Without question，the most anticipated benefit of driverless cars is improved safety．Driverless systems will feature sensors that detect safety threats that human drivers might miss．Many carmakers already offer systems that alert drivers whenever they get dangerously close to other cars．
Also，driverless systems have the benefit of increased efficiency．Driverless cars won't waste as much gas as human drivers do，and guided by advanced GPS，they'll always take the fastest route．Once driverless cars become widely available，common people can have their own driver，and they'll just sit back and relax while their car's computer takes the wheel!
Although completely driverless cars won't be on the market for several years，the technology behind them is already appearing in phases．Two examples are the Active Lane Keeping Assist option for Mercedes-Benz cars and Ford's Traffic Jam Assist．In the first option，the system warns the driver whenever the car crosses lane markings by causing the steering wheel to vibrate（振動(dòng)）．In the second option，the system helps the car keep pace with other cars while remaining in its current lane．The system is being developed to help relieve blocking on busy roads．
       Several carmakers claim that they'll produce driverless cars within the next decade．But critics aren't so sure，warning that a completely driverless car must be able to make split-second decisions in even the most complex traffic situations．In addition，the car's computer must become smart enough to know when to ask the driver to intervene （介入，干涉） to prevent an accident．
       Full government approval won't happen until driverless cars are proven safe．In the meantime，expect to see carmakers offer ever-smarter features on their new models．
 （Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS）
78．One of the factors that make traffic extremely stressful is thepedestrians appearing out of nowhere/cars pulling out of parking spots/slippery roads due to rain or snow
79．What are the benefits of driverless system？Improved safety and increased efficiency
80．What will happen to a car with the Active Lane Keeping Assist when it crosses lane markings？The steering wheel will vibrate．
81．Driverless cars won't be on the market until they canmake split-second decisions and know when to ask the driver to intervene．

The lip-stick-style tube contains hundreds of milligrams of tiny food particles （粒子） which are small enough to be carried by air，but too large to enter the lungs．Each Le Whif contains enough flavor for about eight to ten whiffs （一陣氣味） and costs﹩1.99 on its own，or﹩4.99 a pack of three．The inhaler is available in chocolate as well as coffee flavor．

He said，"In terms of living on whiffing，we aren't even close to being there．But there clearly has been a revolution over the last few years where we are eating smaller amounts of food more frequently，and choosing food for its aesthetic （審美的） pleasure．We will be launching new whiffing experiences probably every six months．It is reasonable to predict that the next line of whiffing products will be even more health centered．"
The product came onto market in Paris in 2009and the first production run of 25，000inhalers were sold out within a month．It has since been made available across France and in the US．In Britain Le Whif is to be sold firstly in House of Fraser for a month，after which it could become more widely distributed．

B．To help people stop drinking coffee．
C．To replace the traditional chocolate．

7．The Focal Point of the"Chinese Liquor Golden Triangle"

With a goal of production value of 100 billion yuan for the year of 2020，Wuliangye is playing a leading role in the development of the liquor industry in the region．A lot of related industries are now building up in the region to create a Chinese Liquor Golden Triangle-the Chinese equivalent （相當(dāng)于）of the French Bordeaux region---that continues to appear on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River．
