According to the listening passage, smart cars cannot improve our lives. This challenges the reading passage’s claim that smart cars have made lives of people better.
Firstly, smart cars will increase the rates of car accidents by hitting people. Smart cars have possibility to collide with person, because they cannot recognize a person who comes close to them. This contradicts the part in the reading passage where it says Smart cars will lower frequency of accidents.
Secondly, Smart cars cannot be a solution to solve traffis jam. The more handling of vehicles becomes easy, the more people will use them instead of using public transportaion. Consequently, all roads will be full of cars. This idea goes against the reading passage’s opinion that smart cars will reduce the traffic flow.
Thirdly, Using smart cars cost a lot of money. Because, needed equipment, such as cameras and GPS, makes car owners spend more money on buy those equipment. In the case of malfunctions, the car user should bring them to the spacialists. From this aspect, the statement explained in the reading that smart car owners do not have to spend much money on vehicle to retain it.
To sum up, in the listening, lecturer oppose to the reading passage. By insisting, it is hard to expect smart cars will fortify our present lives.(our은 빼도 되나요??) |
