The Autonomous Car Revolution

Self-driving cars are no longer science fiction. Companies like Tesla, Google, and Uber have been testing autonomous vehicles on public roads for years, and the results are impressive. These cars use a combination of cameras, radar, and artificial intelligence to navigate without human input. They can 30__________ obstacles, read traffic signs, and even predict the behavior of other drivers.

Proponents of the technology argue that autonomous cars will make roads much safer. After all, human error is responsible for over 90% of accidents. Computers don't get tired, drunk, or 31__________. They don't text while driving or lose concentration. In theory, they could save thousands of lives every year.

But there are challenges to 32__________ before self-driving cars become common. The technology is expensive, and it's not perfect yet. There have been several high-profile accidents involving autonomous vehicles, raising questions about their safety.

There are also legal and ethical issues to 33__________. Who is responsible if a self-driving car causes an accident — the owner, the manufacturer, or the software developer? And how should the car be programmed to make ethical decisions in a crash situation? Should it protect its passengers at all costs, or try to minimize overall harm?

Despite these challenges, most experts believe that autonomous vehicles are the future. They predict that within a few decades, driving yourself will seem as 34__________ as riding a horse through the city. The transition won't happen overnight, but it's already 35__________its way. Every year, cars become smarter and more capable.

For young people today, the idea of owning a car might seem less appealing than it did to previous generations. Perhaps in the future, we won't own cars at all — we'll simply summon one when we need it, like a taxi that 36__________ itself.

You have 1.5 minutes to read the text silently, then be ready to read it out aloud. You will not have more than 1.5 minutes to read it.

Arctic foxes are well-adapted to survive in the frigid Arctic regions, both on land and sea ice within the Arctic Circle. The winters in the Arctic differ greatly from those in other parts of the world, with October to February being characterized by the absence of sunlight and its warmth.

Fortunately, these small foxes possess remarkable adaptations that aid their survival in the icy environment. Their long and fluffy tails serve as natural blankets, providing insulation and keeping the foxes warm when they wrap their tails around their bodies while sleeping. Additionally, their feet are equipped with a layer of thick fur, acting as built-in snow boots that muffle their footsteps, making it challenging for prey to detect them. Furthermore, their white coats serve as effective camouflage amidst the ice and snow, making it difficult for predators like wolves, polar bears, and golden eagles to spot them.

Task 2. Study the advertisement.

Learning environment

When you think of education, you likely picture a classroom setting with a teacher upfront by the board and students watching the lecture or lesson. The typical picture of in-person learning has shifted greatly, however, with the advent of online learning and the power of technology. But is it really so powerful?   

For anyone who is questioning whether online learning or in-person instruction is better, I am going to share the advantages and disadvantages of each learning environment.   

Let’s consider some of the benefits of in-person learning. Some people look forward to the academic experience they have when they are in-person with their peers and instructor. For some, it’s because it allows for hands-on learning and collaboration with peers at the same time and in the same place. For others, they may feel more comfortable asking questions in-person. When it comes to college, some students want the experience of living in a dorm, sitting in lecture halls, partaking in labs, and engaging in social activities.   

In-person learning is aimed to provide a distraction-free environment. Entering a classroom comes along with fewer distractions. The space is designed and intended for learning and since a teacher is there, you may feel more inclined to focus. It can be harder to be distracted by cell phones or anything else inside a classroom.   

On the other hand, when it comes to learning within an institution’s walls, students have no say as to when or where the class is offered. You simply receive a schedule and have to be there at that time. This can clash with one’s existing responsibilities. Moreover, since you have to be in a designated space at a certain time for traditional in-person learning, you have to factor in commuting time (and costs).   

Online learning is much more flexible. Since education takes place online, you have more flexibility in setting your own schedule. This is especially the case with pre-recorded lectures. Even without pre-recorded lectures, you have more flexibility in your schedule because you don’t have to commute anymore to a location to learn. For students in many countries, obtaining an education seems like a dream when there are no physical school locations or geographical barriers to making it to a specific place. With online learning, access to education has been maximized, allowing people from all over the world to join. As such, you can learn alongside students from different countries and connect to people from every corner of the globe, and when it comes to doing so in an educational setting, students benefit from diverse perspectives. Additionally, you could connect with someone in another location that might become your next business partner or employer.   

Next, compare the price. In the case of college, in-person learning tends to be much more expensive than online alternatives. That’s mostly because schools have high overhead costs, but they also can charge the tuition and fees that they want to, especially when they are privately owned. Given less overhead costs, online education tends to be much more cost-effective than in-person learning. In some cases, online learning can be totally free, such as from online platforms.

When comparing in-person learning to online learning, it’s hard to say that one is better than the other. That’s because it typically comes down to a student’s preference. As you can see, there are advantages and disadvantages to both styles of learning. Depending on your unique situation, you can determine which environment feels more fitting for you and your goals.

17. Comparing the price of online and in-person learning, the author comes to the conclusion that …

1) online learning usually has a lower price than in-person.

2) it mostly depends on whether the school is private or not.

3) both ways have more expensive and cheaper options.

4) the higher price is always explained by higher costs.
