She got out to open a metal gate that blocked her path. That's when she heard the whistle sounded by the driver of a train. Her Renault Clio was parked across a railway line. Seconds later, she watched the train drag her car almost a kilometre down the railway tracks.Ceely's near_miss made the news because she blamed it on her GPS device(导航仪). She had never driven the route before. It was dark and raining heavily. Ceely was relying on her GPS, but it made no mention of the crossing. “I put my complete trust in the device and it led me right into the path of a speeding train，” she told the BBC.Who is to blame here? Rick Stevenson, who tells Ceely's story in his book When Machines Fail Us, points the finger at the limitations of technology. We put our faith in digital devices, he says, but our digital helpers are too often not up to the job. They are filled with small problems.And it's not just GPS devices: Stevenson takes us on a tour of digital disasters involving everything from mobile phones to wireless key­boards.The problem with his argument in the book is that it's not clear why he only focuses on digital technology, while there may be a number of other possible causes. A map­maker might have left the crossing off a paper map. Maybe we should blame Ceely for not paying attention. Perhaps the railway authorities are at fault for poor signalling system. Or maybe someone has studied the relative dangers and worked out that there really is something specific wrong with the GPS equipment. But Stevenson doesn't say.It's a problem that runs through the book. In a section on cars, Stevenson gives an account of the advanced techniques that criminals use to defeat computer­based locking systems for cars. He offers two independent sets of figures on car theft; both show a small rise in some parts of the country. He says that once again not all new locks have proved reliable. Perhaps, but maybe it's also due to the shortage of policemen on the streets. Or changing social circumstances. Or some combination of these factors.The game between humans and their smart devices is amusing and complex. It is shaped by economics and psychology and the cultures we live in. Somewhere in the mix of those forces there may be a way for a wiser use of technology.If there is such a way, it should involve more than just an awareness of the shortcomings of our machines. After all, we have lived with them for thousands of years. They have probably been fooling us for just as long. 1. What did Paula Ceely think was the cause of her accident?AShe was not familiar with the road.BIt was dark and raining heavily then.CThe railway workers failed to give the signal.DHer GPS device didn't tell her about the crossing.2. The phrase“near miss” (Paragraph 2 ) can best be replaced by _.Aclose hitBheavy lossCnarrow escapeDbig mistake3. Which of the following would Rick Stevenson most probably agree with? AModern technology is what we can't live without.BDigital technology often falls short of our expectation. CDigital devices are more reliable than they used to be.DGPS error is not the only cause for Ceely's accident.4. In the writer's opinion, Stevenson's argument is _.Aone­sidedBreasonableCpuzzlingDwell­based5. What is the real concern of the writer of this article?AThe major causes of traffic accidents and car thefts.BThe relationship between humans and technology.CThe shortcomings of digital devices we use.DThe human unawareness of technical problems.答案与解析语篇解读在现代社会中，人们对电子设备太过信赖和依赖，有时还会带来致命的麻烦。要解决这个问题，还有其他诸多方面的因素要考虑。1D细节理解题。从第二段的第一句“.because she blamed it on her GPS device”和中间“Ceely was relying on her GPS，but it made no mention of the crossing.”以及本段最后一句可知，斯莉认为事故的原因是GPS没有提示交叉路口的存在。故选D项。2.C词义猜测题。根据第一段最后两句话可知，她的车被卷到铁路线上，被拖出了一千米远，因此斯莉是侥幸逃脱了一劫。3.B推理判断题。根据第三段可知斯蒂芬森指出了技术的局限性，其中“our digital helpers are too often not up to the job”点明了数字科技经常落后于我们的期望这一观点。故B项正确。4.A推理判断题。结合整篇文章中斯蒂芬森的观点不难看出，他主要指出了数字科技的局限性，因此仅是事物的一方面，故选A项。来源:学+科+网5.B推理判断题。本文从开始的事例引出数字科技的话题，然后大部分篇幅说明了斯蒂芬森对数字设备的评价，到最后两段点明作者的观点和立场，即：人类和科技的矛盾关系。故B项正确。
