一、阅读理解
阅读下面材料，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 (2019·浙江绍兴中考)Have you ever seen a car without a driver? It sounds crazy， but these computer-driven driverless cars will soon be filling roads near you. Companies like Google and Tesla have been designing and testing these cars， and the
technology is there.
So how? The cars have sensors(感应器) all around which can find other cars and objects in the road. Road signs are read by cameras， and satellite navigation systems(卫星导航系统) are used so the car knows how to get where you want to go. All you have to do is type in the address! Finally， a central computer system takes in all the information that it receives from the sensors and cameras and works out when to speed up， stop and turn.
Sound like your idea of heaven(天堂)? Sitting back， looking out of the windows and even watching a film or reading a book while‘driving’ would be possible with this new technology. You wouldn't have to worry about remembering directions to where you're going. In addition， computers would also drive more safely than people—they would obey the rules and have quicker action times when in dangerous situations.
However， there are many drawbacks of driverless cars. Computers would have difficulties making ethical(道德的) decisions: if a child ran into the road， would the computer choose to hit the child or turn suddenly and potentially kill the car's
