Should I stay or should I go? An LED device (设备) for driverless cars aims to give pedestrians (行人) at a crossing the power to communicate with cars, signaling for them to stop or drive on.
Blink, created by researchers at the Royal College of Arts and Imperial College London, turns the awkward dance of eye contact and hand gestures that happens when a car slows down while someone is waiting to cross the road into something driverless cars can understand.
Blink combines an organic light display with the Windscreen (挡风玻璃) and windows of a car and uses light signals to show pedestrians when the car is aware of their presence. If the car detects a pedestrian, a figure lights up.

If a pedestrian raises a hand as a stop sign, the figure turns green, directing the pedestrian to cross, and the car is prevented from moving forward. If they place a hand out to the side to signal for the car to go forward, the figure turns red and the car continues.
But George Filip at the University of Nottingham, UK, isn’t certain it is a good idea to give pedestrians control over driverless cars. He says cities could end up crowded because pedestrians keep stopping cars.
Producers should wait until the novelty of driverless cars has worn off before creating car-pedestrian communications systems, he says. “We need to learn how people actually communicate with autonomous cars.”
The idea is to help people feel more comfortable around driverless cars, says Blink co-creator Raunaq Bose. “It effectively gives pedestrians the car-stopping powers of lollipop men and women (帮助学童过马路的交通安全员).”
The team hasn’t yet tested the device on a driverless car, but Bose says several automotive companies have expressed interest. 28. What do we know about Blink?
A. it’s a new car brand B. It’s a driving-aid system
C. It’s a car-producing company D it’s already widely known to the public 29. What’s George Filip’s attitude towards Blink?
A. Negative
B. Curious
C. Uninterested
D. Appreciative
30. What can be inferred from what Bose said?
A. There’ s a demand for the device B. The device has an uncertain future C. The device is perfect for driverless cars D. Several companies have begun to use the device

the hall, a man stopped me, saying\Hi.my name is Donny Mckenthan, Would you like to work for IBM?\
I ended up having a wonderful conversation with him about the company but I told him there was no way he could persuade me. I went out for dinner that night with some friends. When I mentioned this story, they couldn't believe I was foolish enough to refuse the interview with this amazing company! I went home that night, dug out his card from the rubbish and called him back.
After a series of successful interviews, an IBM manager called me to give me an offer. When I asked what the salary (薪水) was, he said something like 18. I thought $18, 000 a year was low. So I started to bargain. He was shocked and explained that the starting salary for all trainees was set in stone.
The next day, I received the offer letter. As it turns out, I misunderstood the offer-I would earn $1, 800 a month, not $18, 000 a year. That was a great salary back then, so of course, I took the job. A few months later the manager asked me to be placed in sales because I was the only trainee who had tried to bargain over a starting salary! That comedy of mistake ended up being a wonderful22- year career(职业) at IBM.
