　　The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “DriveLAB” in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.

　　Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people, leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝) and inactive.

　　Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.

　　These include custom-made navigation(导航) tools, night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations. Phil Blythe explains: “For many older people, particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.”

　　“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.”

　　Dr Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the older driver study, explains, “The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.

　　“For example, most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly, we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined. We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.

　　“We hope that our work will help with technological solutions(解决方案) to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.”

　　12.What is the purpose of the Drivel AB?

　　A.To explore newmeans of transport.

　　B.To design new types of cars.

　　C.To find out older driver`s problems.

　　D.To teach people traffic rules.

　　13.Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?

　　A.It keeps them independent.

　　B.It helps them save time.

　　C.It builds up their strength.

　　D.It cures their mental illnesses.

　　14.What do researchers hope to do for older drivers?

　　A.Improve their driving skills.

　　B.Develop driver-assist technologles.

　　C.Provide tips on repairing their cars.

　　D.Organize regular physical checkups.

　　15.What is the best title for the text?

　　A.A new Model Electric Car

　　B.A Solution to Traffic Problem

　　C.Driving Service for elders

　　D.Keeping Older Drivers on the Road

　　根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出学&科#网能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

　　Lots of people find it hard to get up in the morning and put the blame on the alarm clock. In fact, the key to easy morning wake-up lies in resting your body clock 16 Here is how to make one.

　　● 17 In order to make a change, you need to decide why it's important. Do you want to get up in time to have breakfast with your family, get in some exercise, or just be better prepared for your day? Once you are clear about your reason, tell your family or roommates about the change you want to make.

　　l Rethink mornings. Now that you know why you want to wake up, consider re-arranging your morning activities. If you want time to have breakfast with your family, save some time the night before by setting out clothes, shoes, and bags. 18 That’s a quarter-hour more you could be sleeping if you bought a coffee maker with a timer.

　　l Keep your sleep/wake schedule on weekends. If you’re tired out by Friday night, sleeping in on Saturday could sound wonderful. But compensating on the weekends actually feeds into your sleepiness the following week, a recent study found. 19

　　l Keep a record and evaluate it weekly. Keep track of your efforts and write down how you feel. After you’ve tried a new method for a week, take a look at your record. 20 If not, take another look at other methods you could try.

　　A. Get a sleep specialist.

　　B. Find the right motivation.

　　C. A better plan for sleep can help.

　　D. And consider setting a second alarm.

　　E. If the steps you take are working, keep it up.

　　F. Stick to your set bedtime and wake-up time, no matter the day.

　　G. Reconsider the 15 minutes you spend in line at the café to get coffee.
