Passage Three

段落三
Thank you for coming, everyone. Today's presentation will show how we see the development of the motor car in the short to medium term, and that is why we have invited all of you here today.
感谢大家的光临。今天的演讲将展示中短期内我们将看到的汽车的发展,这就是邀请你们来的原因。
Let's start with power. It's clear that petrol-driven engines have no future. Already there are many alternative fuel vehicles on the market, powered by anything from solar power to natural gas.
让我们先从功率说起。显然汽油发动机没有未来。市场上已经有很多替代性的燃料汽车靠太阳能和天然气给予动力。
Some independent thinkers have even produced cars that run on vegetable oil. But as we all know, of all these alternative fuel vehicles, the most practical are electric vehicles.
一些独立思考者甚至生产出使用植物油的汽车。但是我们都知道,所有替代性的燃料汽车中最实用的是电动汽车。
Sure, in the past electric vehicles have their problems, namely, a limited driving range, and very few recharging points, which limited their use.
当然,电动汽车在过去有一些自身的问题,也就是汽车可行驶里程受限、充电地点很少。这些都限制了它的使用。
Now, however, recent developments in electric vehicle technology mean they can match conventional petrol engines in terms of performance and safety.
然而现在电动汽车技术的发展可以使其在性能和安全上匹敌传统的汽油发动机汽车。
Let's not forget that electric vehicles are cleaner. Plus, importantly, the power source is rechargeable, so this does not involve using any valuable resources.
不要忘了电动汽车更清洁。另外,更重要的是使用充电电源,所以不会浪费任何宝贵的资源。
Moving on to communications, very soon, cars will be linked to GPS satellites, so they'll do all the driving for you.
至于通讯系统,不久汽车将会连接卫星定位系统,这样它们就可以为你开车了。
What controls remain for the users will be audio-based, so, for example, you'll just have to say “a bit warmer”, and the air conditioning will adjust automatically.
用户可以通过声音控制汽车,比如你只要说“再暖和一点”,空调将会自动调节温度。
You'll also be able to receive email, music and movies, all via an internet link. So just type in the destination you want, sit back, sleep, watch your movie, whatever.
你还可以通过网络连接接收邮件、音乐和电影。所以只要输入你的目的地,然后放松休息、看电影,干什么都行。

问题33至35是基于你刚才听到的短文。
