Diana Nyad was dozens of miles into her dream to compl

22、ete a 103-mile swim from Cuba to Key West. Because of the currents in the Florida Straits, Nyad would have to last 60 hours - if everything went perfectly. For two years, this dream of swimming from Cuba to Florida had been part of her every waking hour. She was about to turn 60. I wanted to be fill

23、ed with commitment to the best of myself so that I wasnt looking back later saying, What have I done with my life? says Nyad. Those extreme physical struggles are not new to her. In 1974, 25-year-old Nyad became the first person to swim across Lake Ontario against the current. A year later, Nyads 28

24、-mile swim around the island of Manhattan made the front page of the New York Times. Physically, Im stronger. I weigh a lot more, Nyad said after a training swim in Key West in June. There are also mental advantages to being older, says Steven Munatones, an expert in swimming. Feeling a sharp pain i

25、n her right shoulder, she changed the angle of stroke (划), telling herself to go gently until her hand caught the water.

26、urn on her back again, gasping, unable to fill her lungs. Im trying to make it. Im barely going forward. I feel so sick. This has been my dream forever, but I can hardly make it another hour, Nyad told David Marchant, the boats navigator (领航员). Between the 23rd and 27th hours, Nyad had gone just fiv

28、gone exactly right and shed made it the whole way, says Mark Sollinger, who piloted Nyads lead boat. At a press .conference in Key West after being pulled onto the support boat, Nyad choked back tears and said, Sometimes the will is so strong. But I was shaking and freezing, and I thought, Theres no

29、 mind over matter anymore. I think Im going to have to go to my grave without swimming from Cuba to Florida. But when Nyad returned home to Los Angeles, the pain began to fade.

39、Africa trip meetingCDriving speeds have largely stabilized, and nowadays, safety concerns are important and reducing road accidents to minimum is a must. So, automakers are focused on safety systems more than ever before. Given the emphasis on improving safety, its possible that well-known phrases s

40、uch as “live fast and die young may lose their meaning as innovative (创新的) new devices are built into cars and trucks and other things that go.Many of the new safety systems that are being added to high-end vehicles are computer- assisted technologies that transfer some of the vehicles operations to

41、 the vehicle itself, rather than relying only on the drivers decision-making skills. For example, predictive brake assist is an in-vehicle feature that prepares the vehicle for braking when its built-in sensors detect a potential object ahead. The predictive brake assist basically places the vehicle

42、s braking system on alert, which helps the system to slow down the car in as little time and as short a distance as possible.Other in-vehicle sensors will detect moving and still objects and will even distinguish the objects based on simple patterns, such as other vehicles vs. a person. Whats more,

43、built-in “active systems, i.e., predictive precollision (可预测碰撞) systems, will provide drivers with advance detection of potential contact between vehicles.These systems compute the relative movement of the objects and detect possible dangerous intersections (交点).What technological developments have

44、enabled innovations like predictive precollision systems? Essentially, these so-called active systems are the result of vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications. These communication links allow highways to provide a vehicles owners with services such as renting a movie during

45、the trip, as well as reduce reaction delays when medical care is needed due to a crash. Despite these new technologies, drivers cannot take safety for granted. Until all vehicles are fully automated, it is the drivers themselves who are responsible for operating their vehicles and obeying traffic laws designed to keep roadways secure. So, keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the steering wheel (方向盘). 48. “Pr
