and green olive trees，I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama Unfortunately， just as I took out my camera ， a woman approached from behind， and planted herself right in front of my view Like me ， this woman was here to stop， sigh and appreciate the view Patient as I was ，after about 15 minutes，my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take ，I grew frustratedWas it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape ？Sure， I could have asked her ， but something prevented me from doing so She seemed so content in her observationI didn't want to mess with that Another 15minutes passed and I grew bored The woman was still there I decided to take the photo anywayAnd now when I look at it，I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting The landscape ， beautiful on its own， somehow 7 coms to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it This photo，with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who“ruined“it ，now hangs on a wall in my bedroom What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured （捕捉）and frozen on some stranger's bedroom wall？A bedroom，after all，is a very private space，in which some woman I don't even know has been immortalized （使 永存） In some ways ， she lives in my house Perhaps we all live in each others'spacePerhaps this is what photos are for：to remind us that we all appreciate beauty，that we all share a common desire for pleasure，for connection，for something that is greater than us That photo is a reminder，a captured moment，an unspoken conversation between two women，separated only by a thin square of glass 41What happened when the author was about to take a photo？ AHer camera stopped working BA woman blocked her view CSomeone asked her to leave DA friend approached from behind 42According to the author，the woman was probably Aenjoying herself Blosing her patience Cwaiting for the sunset Dthinking about her past 43In the author's opinion，what makes the photo so alive？ AThe rich color of the landscape BThe perfect positioning of the camera CThe woman's existence in the photo DThe soft sunlight that summer day 44 The photo on the bedroom wall enables the author to better understand 8 Athe need to be close to nature Bthe importance of private space Cthe joy of the vacation in Italy Dthe shared passion for beauty 45The passage can be seen as the author's reflections upon Aa particular life experience Bthe pleasure of traveling Cthe art of photography Da lost friendship 46 （12.5分）This month，Germany's transport minister，Alexander Dobrindt， proposed the first set of rules for autonomous vehicles （自主驾驶车辆） They would define the driver's role in such cars and govern how such cars perform in crashes where lives might be lost The proposal attempts to deal with what some call the“death valley“of autonomous vehicles：the grey area between semiautonomous and fully driverless cars that could delay the driverless future Dobrindt wants three things ：that a car always chooses property（财产）damage over personal injury； that it never distinguishes between humans based on age or race； and that if a human removes his or her hands from the driving wheelto check email，saythe car's maker is responsible if there is a crash “The change to the road traffic law will permit fully automatic driving，“says DobrindtIt will put fully driverless cars on an equal legal footing to human drivers ， he says Who is responsible for the operation of such vehicles is not clear among car makers， consumers and lawyers “The liability（法律责任）issue is the biggest one of them all，“says Natasha Merat at the University of Leeds ，UK An assumption behind UK insurance for driverless cars ，introduces earlier this year， insists that a human“be watchful and monitoring the road“at every moment But that is not what many people have in mind when thinking of driverless 9 cars “When you say driverless cars'， people expect driverless cars “Merat says “You knowno driver“ Because of the confusion，Merat thinks some car makers will wait until vehicles can be fully automated without operation Driverless cars may end up being a form of public transport rather than vehicles you own，says Ryan Calo at Stanford University，CaliforniaThat is happening in the UK and Singapore， where government provided driverless vehicles are being launched That would go down poorly in the US ，however“The idea that the government would take over driverless cars and treat them as a public good would get absolutely nowhere here，“says Calo 46What does the phrase“death valley“in Paragraph 2 refer to ？ AA place where cars often break down BA case where passing a law is impossible CAn area where no driving is permitted DA situation where drivers'role is not clear 47The proposal put forward by Dobrindt aims to Astop people from breaking traffic rules Bhelp promote fully automatic driving Cprotect drivers of all ages and races Dprevent serious property damage 48What do consumers think of the operation of driverless cars ？ AIt should get the attention of insurance companies BIt should be the main concern of law makers CIt should not cause deadly traffic accidents DIt should involve no human responsibility 49Driverless vehicles in public transport see no bright future in ASingapore 10 Bthe UK Cthe US DGermany 50What could be the best title for passage ？ AAutonomous Driving：Whose Liability？ BFully Automatic Cars ：A New Breakthrough CAutonomous Vehicles ：Driver Removed! DDriverless Cars ：Root of Road Accidents 51 （12.5分）I read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waitingBut where are we doing all of this waiting， and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours？To understand the issue ，let's take a look at three types of“waits“ The very purest form of waiting is the Watched Pot WaitIt is without doubt the most annoying of all Take filling up the kitchen sink （洗碗池） as an example There is absolutely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it's full During these waits，the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless A cousin to the WatchedPot Wait is the Forced WaitThis one requires a bit of discipline Properly preparing packaged noodle soup required a Forced Wait Directions are very specific “Bring three cups of water to boil， add mix， simmer three minutes，remove from heat ，let stand five minutes“I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictlyAfter all，Forced Waiting requires patience Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky Break WaitThis type of wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary Unlike the Forced Wait ， which is also voluntary，waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen Turning one's li
